Alien has had some LEGIT games...and its had some bad ones...but its ALSO had some obscure ones; Aliens Extermination being one of them! It was made by a company named GlobalVR and remains to this day an arcade exclusive that never got ported to any home console or PC. Luckily that's not entirely the case any longer as it can 100% be played on PC with some trickery.
But damn if its not a legit fun, relatively scary and action packed light gun arcade game based in the Aliens universe. Sure the concept is simple...shoot anything that moves, but the atmosphere and overall style of the game really nails what the movies were all about...horror action and suspense. Takes about half an hour start to finish and it's a great bite sized game to play this Halloween.
But that got me thinking GAF? Best game based on the Alien franchise? I hover between Alien 3: The Gun on Sega System 32 and Alien: Isolation. I guess both can be my favorite as they are WILDLY DIFFERENT GAMES
