Trivia
Michael Biehn, the actor who reprised his role of Corporal Dwayne Hicks from Aliens (1986), admitted to only giving a half-hearted performance because he could sense the developers didn't have passion for the project.

Goofs
Hicks' clothes change from what he is wearing in cut scenes to what he is wearing in actual game play.

Quotes
Cpl. Dwayne Hicks: [First Lines] Cpl. Dwayne Hicks 22404215E9. Distress. My unit has suffered immense casualties on LV-426 and requesting immediate assistance aboard the USS Sulaco. Survivors: Myself, 2 human females, one of which is a child and a damaged Synthetic. Consider all Colonial Marines dispatched to LV-426 to be K.I.A. Repeat, all Marines dispatched to LV-426 were K.I.A.

Crazy credits
Short written messages were made from Developers during the ending credits.

Underrated and has some quite solid aspects

Beneath this games bad story and AI, mediocre gameplay and graphics plus the worst final boss ever is a neat little game.

The setting and tone of this game is often near perfect, yes it's horror underdelivers aside from the first mission but you truly feel like you are in there fighting aliens, it has amazing collectibles, great multiplayer (not anymore cause uhm no-one plays this game), weirdly enough extra DLC and fantastic customization plus fun new Aliens.

If for whatever reason you find yourself interested in this game or are just a massive fan of the Aliens franchise check it out and you might get surprised.
