    Alien Breed rises again!

    Remember a while back when an Alien Breed remake was in the works, but ended up being cancelled due to nobody wanting to publish it? Well apparently Team 17 has started production on a new Alien Breed title again, to be released sometime in 2009. No other information at this time, no platform, no anything. Not even if this is the previous project revived or an entirely new one. There's a logo though, if you follow the link. Hopefully they'll get to finish and release it this time.

    That is great news. Lets hope this time it does get made and released.

    Could be something like Shadowgrounds then.

    Shadowgrounds and its sequel were a couple of great old school shooters. More of the same would be great. However there is also scope to build on the original ideas of Alien Breed. Especially the computer system and weapons. It could be evolved easily into more than just an out and out blood fest.

    Being as it looks like it's for XBox live and the PS3 version it may be an improved version of ABII or a new AB3D.

    Might be a nice change if they try to be as close to the original concept; no convulated storyline, loads of NPCs to interact with, just you, a space marine who has to take on an overrun base full of alien monstrocities.
