« on: June 30, 2013, 04:39:32 PM »I´m currently playing Aliens: Infestation on DS. Think its great so far, the only problem i´m having is keeping people alive when I encounter bosses, think I have lost about 6 soldiers.
Probably my favvorite Alien game since Alien vs Predator on PC (1999), it really captures the mood from the movies.
I enjoyed that game too. I managed to get to the last boss without losing a character (by which I mean, I reloaded when I lost a character). When I finally did let them die in facing the last boss it was really very satisfying, lol.
I can understand why people don´t like permadeath, but I have always liked it. For me it makes the game all the more exciting when you have to be more carful with your resources.
And in this particular game I think it lends greatly to the overall feel and suspense (allthough it´s not real permadeath). In the movies the aliens are much stronger then the humans and there are going to be alot of casualties.
