Previous claims that the Wii U version of Aliens: Colonial Marines would be the best one, may not be accurate as we await final word on the missing version of the game.
In a new development, someone claiming to be a Sega of Europe tester went on Reddit to clarify some things regarding Aliens: Colonial Marines (via Dark Side of Gaming).
"Oh wow. Yes okay. I was hoping someone would ask this. I have played the WiiU version. The one that is supposedly the best of all of them? It is not. It is the worst. It is a bit of a joke.
"The WiiU is basically the same game as the console version but with framerate issues, worse texture loading, and horrendously misguided minigames thrown in. You get a ‘scanner' to scan enemies and get bonus points that aid your harming them. When you cut open doors (which happens a lot in the game) you have a game where you have to keep the heat ‘optimal'.
"They just add frustration, and take away even more from the fun. We don't know if it will come out, Sega are conisdering canceling it, but right now its still going."
The Reddit user was verified by Reddit, but as always it is unclear just how reliable the source is - and the account was later deleted.
On a positive note, he did say The Creative Assembly's Aliens game was looking good.
