    This is a game based on a movie based on a game based on two movies. Did I get it? Am I forgetting about something?
     
    I'm not criticizing, it's just a paradigmatic example of the connection between both industries. It is not surprising that citizen siege is planned to be released in both media simultaneously, hopefully before Duke Nukem Forever.

    So are you saying to me that the alien movie released in 1979 is based on the game released by atari in 1982? Wow! I'd have never expected that!

        I don't care, who you are, where you're from, don't care what you did, as long as you don't suck AvP.

    I played the second one and liked it, hopefully it's like that. Sounds like it anyway.

    AvP comics came before the movies and games?
     
    I'm not sure.

    You are right, sir. The AvP comics are from 1989 and the game is from 1993, according to wikipedia.

    No, I'm saying that AVP is not based on the AVP movies.  No shit they're based off of the Aliens and Predator movies *rolls eyes* 
     
    I wouldn't worry though.  AVP and AVP2 were great games, so I expect that this will follow suit.

    That's why I'm not criticizing, and because I never played any of them. And that's why it is a good example of the connection between both industries, as some movies in the franchise are supposed to be good too, even if I don't like them. But I suppose that's just my personal taste.
