4.0 out of 5 stars Solid near classic PS1 fun, July 16, 2003

By	N. Durham "Big Evil" (Philadelphia, PA) - See all my reviews (TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

Originally released way, way back a little after the release of the original Playstation; Acclaim's Alien Trilogy (you can tell this game is old considering the film series stopped being a trilogy when the fourth film Alien Resurrection was released a year later on) is a straight forward first person shooter in which you play as Ripley going through all the Xenomorph infested areas from the first three films. By today's standard's the graphics, gameplay, and weapon options are all pretty dated, but in it's day Alien Trilogy was one of the better FPS games to hit the PS1. All in all, if you still have your PS1 and dig older FPS games, you should give this one time gem a look.

4.0 out of 5 stars Solid fun, February 1, 2003

By	Chris M. Lieb "chrislieb1" (Woodinville, WA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

If you want a [well priced], yet fulfilling few hours of destructive fun, this is your game. I found the ambience slightly disturbing, that's good. Fans of the films will appreciate all the locales being included. The graphics are extremely dated, but for fans of old school games who don't need extreme eye candy, this is a solid buy.

4.0 out of 5 stars You thought the movies were scary? Then play this game!, May 28, 2000

Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars 

This was one of the first games I purchased for my Playstation way back in 1996. I eventually traded it years later, but when I did own it, it brought me a lot of enjoyment and thrills. The game has a "Doom" style look to it, but with quite a bit more strategy involved. For example, it isn't smart to run into a dark, gloomy room or hallway with guns blazing -- Aliens can be lurking around any corner, or even the face-huggers! Luckilly there is a radar that tells you when aliens are in close proximity. But it isn't always necessary since you can occasionally here them screaming and scurrying around. Some of the levels can be a bit confusing and long, but they still provide quite a bit of enjoyment. Different weapons and power-ups are available, so it's not an impossible mission. In fact, it's not terribly difficult either -- battling the Alien Queen is not as daunting as it sounds. Patience and fighting finesse is the key to this game (some mental mapping helps too). One word of advice though...DO NOT play this game in the dark!
