[b][i]Gearbox President Randy Pitchford suspects that his studio's efforts to keep Aliens: Colonial Marines authentic and true to the franchise may have had an effect on the birth of Ridley Scott's film Prometheus.
At "the end of 2005 or early 2006," Pitchford told IGN, Gearbox co-founder and Vice President Brian Martel met with Alien creator Ridley Scott to discuss his game. "They talked about the Space Jockey, and they talked about the Derelict," Pitchford said. "And I have a very strong hunch that that discussion not only sparked the creative seed that led to us doing Aliens: Colonial Marines, but I have a very strong hunch that it sparked Ridley into the Prometheus film that we got."
Martel and Scott pored over the original storyboards for Alien during their meeting five or so years ago. Prometheus, in its earliest form, was confirmed some years later in 2009.[/i][/b]
