‘Alien: Isolation’ Wants to Party Like it’s 1979

Ah, preorder bonus shenanigans. There are few things more apt to piss off the gamertastic among us. Remember the Watchdogs shitstorm? We had to choose between the Signature Shot Pack, the Breakthrough Pack, the Bloom Agent Pack, the Cyberpunk Pack... there were about twenty of the damn things. Nobody could have all of the extras, and nobody was amused.

Except Ubisoft, who cackled merrily about the whole thing while lounging on a pile of our cashtacular. Not that we're bitter, or miserable ol' cynical dudes. Except we totally are.

Anywho, Alien: Isolation recently showcased the game's nostalgic DLC missions. With these, you can play this potentially-awesome-yet-probably-hopes-crushing survival horror as the original cast. Ian Holm is the only exception, he ‘appears as Ash via "likeness and sound-alike,'Kotaku reports. The Crew Expendable and Last Survivor DLC lets us cruise through different sections of the iconic sci fi movie.

Both were set to be dastardly preorder exclusives, but no more. One of Sega's bignobs --who may or may not have a big nob-- has confirmed that these bonuses will be available to all players ‘at a later date.' Late and with a price tag dangling from its hindquarters, we'll wager, but it's better than a kick in the ass.
