Hey Everyone!

So how should I start this off, welp maybe the important stuff on why I'm an Aliens fan. It mostly started with the Playstation games, Alien Trilogy and Resurrection (My Dad did take me to see that in theaters, but it was meh). However when I got older I actually got to watch the original movies many many times. Plus I have gone with the AvP games. Excellent titles I must say, even the new one is pretty damn good. And I'm currently awaiting more news with Colonial Marines.

So being a 19 year old gamer, I'm usually shy and don't really like to speak. I prefer typing... ALOT. But I guess I don't mind talking when I'm around my friends. Also being a college student in Multimedia, I have been developing skills for game design

Nice. Me and you might be cut from the same cloth cause we pretty much are the same person (I don't mean that in a creepy way!!!)! lol Yeah I saw the older movies first though. I was in 7th grade when I discovered aliens and then got hooked after my dad showed me the whole movie! I disagree with the avp stuff. The games are pretty good, but they are too overpowered when it comes to some species! Plus the movies sucked beyond all hell!

Well I appreciated the games more than the movies. The first one was bad, Requiem was like Punisher: War Zone but unlike that it could've been better (For instance how the hell can a human operate a plasma caster just with common sense? Or how can the Predalien act like a facehugger or a queen? And as we all may have shouted this but no Colonial Marines still, it already sucks). I've watched all of the movies, however Alien 3 I couldn't watch all the way through it wasn't that appealing, and Resurrection is just a one time thing I guess, however same as Alien 3 wasn't all that appealing (I was only 7 or 8 when I saw it with my dad and pretty much had to watch the whole thing). But yeah I prefer the 1st 2 movies of Alien and the 1st and 2nd Predator movies (Hopefully Predators will be just as good... even though the trailer looked good, a single hunter was always awesome and much more fitting for their race).

I agree. The 1st and 2nd alien movies were the best! I believe that the 3rd Alien doesn't exist and that it was all a bad dream in Ripley's head! As for the predators. I don't think they should have made a second one cause how can you replace the awesomeness that is Arnold with danny glover and gary bucey?

"GET TO THE CHOPPAAAAAAAAAAAAAA" One of many lines that Arnold is famous for. I didn't mind 2 that much. It wasn't butchered as the AvP movies.

Welcome, Chris. I actually tried playing Alien: Trilogy on my ps2 last week, in less than an hour I had one hell of a migrane! Good game though. :-)

Ah I just got myself another copy of that (One belongs to my dad.) I keep on hearing people saying it's too hard without cheats. I might have to do a playthrough of it either using a PC emulator or the PS3 (I actually have a capture card but I can't get video to work with it yet :/) on Xenomania
