A Game of Aliens

 It's been a while since I've watched any of the Alien movies. It's been too long since I've seen Ripley destroy some alien Queen ass with a power lifter. With the upcoming Prometheus movie, directed by Ridley Scott, taking place in the same universe, I've already had Alien on my mind. Now Gearbox, who you'll remember created the game Borderlands and revived Duke Nukem Forever, is bringing us Aliens: Colonial Marines. They've put out a pre- E3 teaser to get our alien juices flowing, which is gross and awesome at the same time.

I love it when movies get fleshed out in other forms of media. The premise of Aliens: Colonial Marines is to show the Marine team that is sent into the U.S.S. Sulaco to investigate the events of Alien 3 and search for Ellen Ripley. If this is well written, and a fun first person shooter, like Borderlands was, I am in for the setting alone. Just watching this game trailer makes me want to go back and watch all these movies again.
