Aliens Colonial MarinesAh, the Colonial Marines.

Traditionally about as lucky and useful as a Red Shirt in Star Trek.

Their gaming exploits have traditionally been just as unlucky, and while 2010’s Alien Vs. Predator was at least passably entertaining, fans are still awaiting that classic Xenomorph-blasting bloodbath.

Which is why we’re more than a little excited for Aliens: Colonial Marines.

And why this trailer doesn’t give that much away, it has one notable mention for fans of the movies – is that the back-stabbing Burke from Aliens is back?

While a deleted scene suggests otherwise, we never saw him properly die in the original movie.

Let fanboy speculation begin.
