Aliens: Colonial Marines is going to have multiplayer that will let you play the Marines or the alien xenomorphs. It will be class-based (on the aliens' end at least), so you'll have a variety of options, as you can see in the "Tactical Multiplayer" trailer below.

"Showing a select number of special abilities for both the Xenomorph and the Colonial Marines, players will need to make various tactical choices when playing in multiplayer," the blurb for the video says.

"Marines have a plethora of different weapons at their disposal, from the classic pulse rifle to the iconic flamethrower, from the smart gun and legendary weapons to explosives and assault rifle. All are fully customizable, just like the multiplayer characters, and all are selectable in your loadout.

"Certain weapons are great for close combat in tight environments but you might want to watch out for sneak attacks when cornered. Xenomorph players can choose from 3 different classes when going into battle - Soldier, Lurker, or Spitter - each with their own customizable attacks and looks."

Like many are saying, it looks a bit like Left4Dead, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Check out the trailer below.
