MemberOvomorphMay-10-2012 2:52 AMAlien trilogy, Alien3, AVP last of his clan, Alien Thanatos(sp) encounter, AVP2 (bought AVP1 but it didnt run on my PC), AVP extinction, AVP for PS3, Alien Infestation, Alien Arcade Shooter. These are all the games in order that I've come across. Ive played all that are stated and few seem to actually hold any Lore; AVP2, extinction. So which are actual and which are just a game?

MemberOvomorphMay-12-2012 10:03 AMThe game Aliens Colonial Marines will focus on what happened to the Sulaco after the alarm of fire, which originated the movie "Alien3," and that from my point of view, destroyed the Alien Quadrilogy ... one might call the game "Alien 2.5 "...

MemberOvomorphMay-10-2012 12:09 PMI don't know half of those games, but I'm pretty sure, that as far as canon goes, none of the games count

MemberOvomorphMay-10-2012 5:43 PMApparently, Aliens Colonial Marines which is yet to be released is going to be cannon. I'm not sure how it works but the game makers have some sort of special license that sates what they do in the game is cannon and anyone making future alien movies, games or comics has to follow what they do.
I also read that the game developers were given special priverledge to read the script for Prometheus so what they did in Colonial Marines doesn't clash with what's in Prometheus.

MemberOvomorphMay-14-2012 5:37 AMFrom the way i read the interviews this happens after part 3. After the sulaco dumps its eev's it goes back to LV-426 (no idea why). The marines show up to investigate what happened yada yada..
