The Aliens FPS apparently just got canned, what about Obsidians game?

Word is that Gearbox, who was developing the FPS/co-op Aliens game has stopped development and laid people off. If Sega was funding development, which is normally the way these things work, it could be bad things for what Obsidian has been working on as well.

Story has been updated. Gearbox prez says that Colonial Marines hasn't been canned.

Lack of info on the games does invite rumours such as this. I doubt Obsidian would be affected since last I heard, the development team's morale had been at the peak of ubercharge under J.E's 22 charisma points leadership feat, which would mean things are going far better and well than expected.

Yeah, I'm glad that proved to be a false rumor. A rare miss for internet journalism. ;)

The team is definitely still hard at work on Aliens RPG. :(

If something had happened to Colonial Marines I'd expect rumors stating that the name "Colonial Marines" is cursed. Curiously enough, the comic known by the same title had some production problems... Hmm... :p

If you say "Colonial Marines" three times in front of a mirror in a darkened bathroom, does it summon an alien? :lol:

I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that? At what point on the graph do "must" and "cannot" meet? Yet I must - but I cannot! ~ Ro-Man

Erm, JE actually has a charisma of 2, he just casts charm on everyone. :lol:

I came up with Crate 3.0 technology. 

Crate 4.0 - we shall just have to wait and see.
