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.

After an incredible first game and a passable sequel, I couldn't imagine another game in that world. Anything they could have come up with would have only seemed redundant in my mind. Rapture has been explored as much as anyone could have hoped for. Hell, I was fine with them ending the story with the first Bioshock. As of today I have changed my mind, because Bioshock has left the ocean behind for the air. Check out the trailer after the break.
