As much as this is all very interesting, this game will be made based upon Aliens, not Alien. In Alien there was no mention of the Colonial Marines. There was probably no intention to make a sequel.

I think a lot of the methods used to present the creature in the first movie were designed to propagate the implacable foe idea and make the horror more horrific. Making the Alien this " " " " " unkillable " " " " " monster worked well within the horror genre; it didn't work within the Action/Sci-fi drama. "Another bug hunt" vs just one unkillable monster would have made for a very dull (second) movie.

Alien was a very psychological movie with more effect being gained from what you didn’t see than what you did. This is very much like any other horror movie which features a villain of assumingly unassailable skill/strength/other.

Alien was a horror movie, and one that I very much enjoyed. Aliens was a sci-fi movie, and one I enjoyed more. I'm pleased this game will be based on the Aliens canon. That means the bugs can be blasted to bits.
