I've always heard of this as one of the best games based on the Alien/Aliens IP. I also like the second boss - it's a xenomorph born from a Space Jockey before Prometheus and Covenant came to f**k it all. However, it looks like most bosses tank an absurd quantity of damage.

Yeah, the original design of the Xenomorph, with the trunk and the whole alien look, was very interesting, but for Prometheus, AKA "Darwin translated to dumb people", they made this stupid retcon and the Space Jockey's species became humanoid "becoz its ur creator l0l" (humanity is really egocentric), even though the corpse was clearly the body of the Space jockey, and not a suit, because it was fossilized ! Prometheus managed to make me hate a prequel because of this ! And I'm a defender of The Hobbit and the freaking Star Wars prequels, the most hated films on the internet along with Dragon Ball Evolution ! Damn you Ridley ! *start running frantically while yelling insults towards Ridley Scott*

@lordgargamel41244 жыл бұрын
Im positive the jockey alien design was based on the assumption of its appearance. ( which is a disturbing look ) Going by year of release, this is a fact. Still for the sake of discussion the Jockeys pilot suit was bio mechanical as well. The Jockey in prometheus was a strange build also. He had orifices throughout his body which connected with his pilot suit. Sooo perhaps this may not be as inaccurate as it seems? Still, the elephant looking alien i thought was far more horrific and interesting than the results we had in the movie. Though i thought the human part was still cool. Simply because it moves with Gigers art theme. The Human bio- mechanical vision.

It bothers me that the marines can just shoot a storm into the Xenomorphs, spraying out gallons of blood but not a drop of it causes damage.
