10 Literally Game-Changing Mods That Breathed Life Into Old Games

Templar GFX’s ACM Overhaul – Aliens: Colonial Marines

Recommended Videos

Aliens: Colonial Marines isn’t a great game. The trailer promised fast and ferocious Xenomorphs, colorful protagonists with memorable personalities, and the mother truckin’ Power Loader, but what we got was a below-average shooter. Aliens: Colonial Marines is just not worth playing, unless you download a particular mod, that is.

TemplarGFX’s ACM Overhaul is a special case where a mod turned a pretty terrible game, into one that isn’t too shabby! The mod transforms the Xenomorphs, which are limp and lifeless in the unmodified game, into the fast Giger abominations we all know and love/fear. The mod also improves partner AI, lighting, and just about everything else in the game. The difference is night and day, and if you’ve avoided Aliens: Colonial Marines (or bought it and were disappointed), try playing the game with TemplarGFX’s mod for a much more terrifying experience.
