If you've got an Alien itch you can't quite scratch until Alien: Rolumus releases, GameSpew has rounded up the best Alien games to tide you over.

I will be the judge of that.
aliens is gone,should of been left in the memories of older systems,non of of the cash ins on recent systems have been worht while.
some titles should carry on or be relaunched and Aliens isnt one of them.
