Great story (Aliens style), great gameplay, good user interface, adrenalin pumping, exciting, great customization of your units. Highly recommend it, if you like the movie "Aliens" and love the marines in the movie!
This game is my second favorite Aliens game, Alien isolation being first. It made my hart race with fear and excitement. I was constantly monitoring ammo, and my squads sanity....and mine feeling gratification when I got my whole squad out alive. I could not put this game down until my mission was finished. I wish they gave us more as an expansion or more dlc, there is so much potential. This game is a must have for any and every aliens fan. I would without a doubt purchase it on gog if it ever comes.

This game has a great style—it’s oozing classic Alien and Aliens atmosphere. It has an intriguing story and its X-COM style mixed with real-time combat is right up my alley. Adding this game to the gog catalogue would be the perfect companion to Alien Isolation and Aliens vs. Predator, two games of this amazing universe which are already available on gog. Please make this happen!
What the hell? Such a good game and only few votes? Everything here is on it's place: gameplay, mechanics, music and sounds (I don't even mention sucha a gold as an Aliens franchise). A: DD is a masterpiece and it must be a avaiable on gog.
Those games also need your vote!

Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands
Prince of Persia: The Forgotten SandsPrince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands was a game made for the Nintendo Wii by Ubisoft Qubec. The game features a completely different storyline and setting from other versions of the game (under the same title), as well as totally different gameplay mechanics, as the game makes use of the Wii's motion control as well as conventional buttons. The Wii version of the game also features local multiplayer, in which a second player can aid the first player by freezing on-screen enemies or traps for them, or helping to unlock secret areas. Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands for the Wii also features some bonus content, such as unlockable in-game character skins, art galleries, developer diaries, bonus levels, and the original 1992 version of Prince of Persia. The game is popularly referred to as having last generation graphics and dull combat, but was generally praised for its unique and creative gameplay mechanics as well as its overall strong production values, including its unique storyline.
