The recent criticism aimed at Aliens: Colonial Marines does not mean that other movie-based video games are also destined to fail, according to Brian Miller of Paramount.

The senior vice president believes that his team has managed to understand three core ideas that will make the upcoming Star Trek game a success.

He tells Eurogamer that Aliens failed to get the time it required from Gearbox.

He adds, “We also wanted to make sure it was funded correctly. We've been working with the greatest partners we can. Most importantly, we wanted to make sure the same people that brought the film to life, those same minds were working on that game as well.”

Star Trek is set to launch on April 23 in North America and three days later in Europe on the PC, the Xbox 360 and the PlayStation 3.
