Well i wouldn't avoid it like plague. It's still playable and like i said, i enjoy it for what it is. Compared to the AVP games, this represented the Alien franchise far better than the AVP games.
Also, you don't fight humans that much. You fight them frequently on the Sulaco, but the aliens still play the bigger role. As for the weapons, you can unlock most of them pretty quickly when you are on your own. If you play co-op , then it's going to slow down your progress a bit.
I recommend it least getting it from gamefly or somthing. The game wasn't terrible, it just could have been so much more.
Besides i bet you won't see another Aliens game ever. The franchise is just cursed in the game market. Probably your last chance to play as the Colonial Marines.
