Title: Who remembers Aliens the arcade game?
Post by: Mike Leon on August 05, 2004, 11:07:19 AM
Way back in the late eighties, there was an Aliens arcade game. It played like Final Fight except you had guns. Whenever I mention this game people say "Oh, you mean Aliens vs. Predator" and I say "No, I mean Aliens, like the movie with Sigourney Weaver and Michael Bhien." It's like the game has been erased from everyone's memory somehow. Who else remembers this game? I know for a fact that it exists because I have the ROM. I've played it several times.

I just wanted to see if anyone remembers it. I don't really need info. It's just really bizzare because every time I mention it to anyone they insist it doesn't exist and I'm just confusing it with AvP or Alien 3: The Gun. But I know I'm right because I have the MAME ROM and I can play it right now if I want.

You know, when I tell people about Alien 3:The Gun they generally drop they're jaws in disbelief.

Awesome. I'm glad someone else knows it exists.
