>licensing hell means we'll never see this released on consoles or PCs ever
why you gotta lead off by twisting that knife, anon

>>91922951
isnt that the one with the sassy robot Xenomorph?

>>91922966
in this the day and age of Arcade ports being spotty and licensing preventing classics from seeing the light of day MAME is a requirement

i mean at least I have it on MAME

so uh, how bout them xenos

>>91923574
Forgot Predator (2009).

I'm at unhealthy levels of hype for Covenant

I might jump off a bridge if its bad. hold me /tv/

>>91922776
ive heard that the ones that are supposed to take place right after the movie are good but they slowly decline over time with a few really good stand out stories.

this is a good video about em https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dp6iJjSTrVc

>>91922848
It was alright, but in this day and age everything is either an absolute masterpiece or complete shit.

I think I actually ironically liked Predators more, though I haven't watched that since it was in theaters.

Anyone want me to dump Superman vs. Aliens?

Warning: It's like 150 pages

>>91922776
I suggest checking out the new Alien one by Stokoe

>>91925044
it is garbage. Don't bother.
>>91923648
>hold me /tv/
goodbye pal.

>try to read Predators
>drop it because Adrien Brody looks so ridiculous trying to be a tough guy

>>91924993
to be fair they are completly different movies.
Prometheus was also higher concept and therefore could fall harder
that said Predators also did some cool new things with the mythos.
And with Shane Black on The Predator im gonna gamble that the next movie will be good too.

>>91924021
shes ok, and i love plague's goofy Pred stuff, but its pleb tier if you aren't into the intimidating sexy bod AND monster face

>>91925473
well next time try watching it, ive head movies are better watched than read
also really? Brody did well enough i thought. that and its an ensemble cast, there are other people besides him. did you even make it to based Fishburne?

>>91922848
It's a good movie on its own, but lore and franchise wise it's like a wet fart

>>91925884
I didn't watch the movie, for the reason I mentioned in >>91925473

>>91925719
>Shane Black on The Predator
Tell me more?

>>91922848
>>91925950

honestly no

Prometheus just completely lacks internal consistency, it has nothing to do with the rest of the franchise, as a movie it's just paced like shit and makes no sense.

>>91926058
>Tell me more?
hes the Writer AND Director
so like thats great, also its gonna favor practical effects

i need to see The Nice Guys

>>91925950
can you extrapolate?

>>91925719
>that said Predators also did some cool new things with the mythos.
>And with Shane Black on The Predator im gonna gamble that the next movie will be good too.
This
I'm going to be so disappointed if it doesn't amount to much

>>91929763
i mean Shane Black makes good movies
he wouldn't be the first guy i thought of when i think "helming a Predator movie" but then again dude has an eclectic career

>>91922776
alien day?
like the franchise or just aliens in general?

>>91930846
its the day the movie was released and its meant to celebrate the franchise

so most of the recs have been Alien based
anyone got any Pred or AvP recs?

>>91930846
4/26. As a reference to LV-426.

Read Aliens Berserker before AVP war since AVP, War, Duel, Berserker, and 3 World War all are interconnecting

Haven't really read any of the Aliens, Pred, AVP stuff since they started doing the Promethus stuff so can't really help ya there.

anyone else think covenant looks... good? i just dont wanna get my hope up too much

>>91922776
Why is Aliens Vs. Predators Vs. The Thing not a reality?

i liked the Engineers from Promethus
but i hope Scott doesn't try and make Covenant say Xenomorphs are like something David did or HUMANS ALL ALONG or some stupid shit. keep them being Bio Weapons the Engineers use

>>91937455
as much as the critisisms that Prometheus had seemed like ignorable nerd rage i think the creative team too them to heart cause it feels even from the trailers like an Alien movie
that said ive heard its gone though rewrites and reshoots so i dunno that shit light be the same corporate hand that screwed with Prometheus
then again i though Prometheus is fine so what do i know

Was this as dumb as it sounds?

>>91922951
>A xenomorph with a gun...

Oh God, we're fucked!

>>91922966
Why do you want a port, when you have a perfectly accurate MAME emulator?

>>91939403
Actually it was worse.

>>91937457
Because it'd be a massive clusterfuck.

>>91939403
Batman basically became king of the Predators
It was pretty fucking dumb

>>91937457
Because you can't beat The Thing

The Thing literally has it stuck in the worst possible place for it to be stuck, in the middle of nowhere with nothing around but scientists.

If the Thing got anywhere with a halfway decent amount of life forms around, we'd all be fucked. Utterly, utterly fucked

>>91940200
Make xenomorphs incompatible/immune to the thing's replicating and infiltration abilities.

>>91940284
>remove the most dangerous aspect of the Thing
Then the Thing is worthless.

>>91940284
Pretty much.
Let's say it can mimic their shape, It still makes sense for it not to be able to replicate their blood.
Xenomorphs are canonically described as sharing a hive mind. The thing cannot hope to infiltrate because it doesn't share the telepathic link.

Anyone got an upload/mega of Aliens vs Pig?

>>91940560
It's called Aliens: Pig
Look for Aliens - Pig (1997) (Digital) (Bean-Empire)

>>91923719
You're thinking of outbreak, nightmare asylum and female war. They got renamed/decanonised when Alien 3 came out but aside from changing the characters names they're exactly the same.

They are quite good, especially nightmare asylum which has some amazing art.

>>91940200
>can't beat the thing
Fire seems to do a pretty good job.

>>91939403
It's just mediocre, like most of the Dark Horse crossovers that aren't Batman vs. Predator.

>>91941037
Fire is a good deterrent, but not a guaranteed killer. Despite it's severely limited options there's a good chance it survived past the film - Childs was probably infected.

If the movie had been set basically anywhere except remote frozen wasteland the Thing wouldn't have had a problem

Predator vs Judge Dredd vs Aliens is fun

>>91925217
>it is garbage. Don't bother.
Still better than Batman VS Alien 2.

>>91941037
Is Nightmare Asylum the one with the general who wanted to militarise his own Alien force retake Earth?

>>91941102
according to the lighting (those infected are positioned in each scene so that they whites of their eyes are obscured by shadow), it was childs

>>91941113
Hell yeah it is. I'm sure that concept is played out now but asylum was the 2nd or so Aliens mini, so it wasn't quite as boring then. Spears is awesome in that book, a totally deplorable villain that manages to almost be as scary as a Xeno.

>>91941102
I recall MacReady using napalm to blast the shit out of the thing in the jungle and that being a pretty good solution. Why aren't there more thing comics? That concept is terrifying.

>>91941154
I just watched that video like 20 minutes ago and I feel like it's total bullshit. Childs being infected I agree with, but I've never bought into any of the theorys surrounding the infection.

>>91941201
Even if the idea is played out, NA did it well enough that it still stands out.

I didn't get to read too many Alien books, but that one and one set in a city where some researchers were kidnapping people to study an Alien's hunting habits and ability to learn are the ones I remember most clearly.

>>91937457

>Aliens vs. Predator vs. The Thing Beat 'em-Up
>Playable characters are Dutch, Linn, Predator Hunter, Warrior and a decendant of R.J. MacReady who uses some cyber flame gauntlets or something.
>4-Player Co-Op
>Final Boss in 4 player is the unselected character, a Thing/Alien Hybrid(The character is a random unselected choice in 1 to 3 player mode)

>>91941292
I read Genocide and the one about the king alien in school. Even now I've only read the first Aliens omnibus. I think I'm more of a predator guy but I know there's plenty of great books out there for both series.

>>91940384
All the Thing has to do is replicate the parts of the Aliens brain that allows it to be part of the Hive Mind

>>91941455
The hive mind would be aware that that body had been killed and infected/replaced. There's no way they'd fall for it.

>>91941154
If the Thing was brought in it'd probably stick to the already established canon of their series.

or they'd just control The Thing and stop it from doing whatever. As long as it isn't a Queen that's infected, it'll be easy to quarantine/kill.
