STORY:
------------
The battle begins in the opening cut-scene where Ripley and the marines arrive at Hadley's Hope on LV-426 and are attacked by the xenomorph. In this version of the story, EVERYONE but you and Bishop (Who is stationed in the APC vehicle outside of the colony) are wiped out in the first big bug attack, leaving Ripley to complete the search and destroy mission by herself.
And so the game begins.
GAMEPLAY:
------------------
This game is very reminiscent of the Doom games, also being a moody, atmospheric First-Person shooter with slightly better graphics and a scarier, heart pounding soundtrack that's both eerie and upbeat. The way the game is set up is that Bishop sends you mission text objectives at the beginning of each level, and you play through the 3 major settings of the Alien Trilogy films, in the order of 1. The LV-426 Colony (Aliens), 2. The Prison (Alien 3) and then finally, The Bone Ship (Alien). Each area has 10 levels and TONS of enemies, ranging from the Xenomorph, facehuggers, chestbursters, company combat synthetics, corrupt company security guards, dog xenomorph - young & adult variants (Alien 3) and of course, 3 queen aliens, which you'll face on the 10th level of each area.
You also play as the bald Ellen Ripley from Alien 3, but she's wearing her outfit from Aliens, which I thought was a bit weird. But alright, you only do see Ripley in the cutscenes or the death scenes any way. But it's also weird that the 3 areas you play in are on the SAME planet. (Any Alien fan would know that, YES, The Colony and the Boneship ARE on the same planet of LV-426, but the Prison colony on Fury 161 from Alien 3 was located on an entirely different planet all together!!) And also, what is the Nostromo's cryotube sleep chamber doing in one of the rooms in Hadley's Hope?? I guess the solution is simple, really. The game's called Alien Trilogy, so it's a combination of all the important elements from the 'then' called Alien Trilogy films, and is NOT an EXACT replica of them.
WEAPONS:
----------------
Ripley has a variety of weapons to bring the fight to both the Xenomorph and the company. You've got the classic Pulse Rifle (Which fires both bullets and grenades), the shotgun, a 45 automatic pistol, the flamethrower, the smart gun (Vasquez and Drake's weapons from Aliens), and explosive seismic charges. Thankfully, ammo is plentiful and you'll find yourself staying in the fight unless you're reckless and wasteful.
FINAL VERDICT:
-----------------------
Gameplay-wise, Alien Trilogy can get a bit repetitive at times, especially playing 30 levels of just runnin' and gunnin', but it is quite FUN for what it's worth!! It's a scary, atmospheric experience, from racing around down barely lit corridors, to killing xenomorph while the thumping, pulse-pounding soundtrack keeps your heartrate up; it's bound to keep you busy!!
All in all, it's a pretty fun game as well as a great nostalgic experience, especially for this Alien fan who grew up loving these films and collecting the comics, action figures and video games!! If you're a fan of retro games and might wanna check this out, I'd say go for it!! What've you got to lose?
Fun Fact: I have BOTH this game and Aliens: Colonial Marines for PS3, and I TOTALLY prefer Alien Trilogy over it!! You'd think that by this day and age, video games would be better in everyway... but that's definitely not the case here. Alien Trilogy is a million times better!!
If you wanna join the fight, we'll be waiting for you!! See you at the outer rim, Soldier!!
