The Alien Horror Lives...And Thrives!
You are Ripley, a C-3 Grade Lieutenant for the Weyland-Yutani Corporation. After barely surviving an encounter with the alien xenomorph life forms, you were returning to earth in hypersleep aboard your ship, the Sulaco. The Sulaco malfunctioned, jettisoning the emergency escape vehicle with the crew's cryotubes towards Fiorina "Fury" 161, a nearly abandoned maximum security work prison deep in space. You awoke to find yourself stranded on the isolated planet, the only survivor of the crash.
The only Human survivor, that is.
Somehow, you survived. Now, you must face the Aliens again, and stop them once and for all!
Alien 3, here's where it starts to get really good. All of your time is spent in the penal colony, running around in tunnels, getting supplies from the infirmary, blowing the hell out of aliens. Very, very entertaining. The best is when the aliens are chasing you through the pipes and you unleash a volley of grenades at his sorry behind. Also, the game features some small, but very good touches, like the way Ripley shoots with one arm when she's climbing.
