Launch day Aliens: Colonial Marines buyers could receive a refund

A consumer is taking Sega and Gearbox to court over claims that the pair mislead the buying public.

Of course, Sega has previously admitted that trailers for the game “did not accurately reflect the final content” of the release after being taken to task by the UK’s Advertising Standards Authority.

Whether or not that will help US plaintiff Damion Perrine remains to be seen.

Polygon reports that a suit was yesterday filed in California claiming that “Gearbox and Sega falsely advertised Aliens by showing demos at trade shows like PAX and E3 which didn’t end up being accurate representations of the final product”.
