The Epic Games Store is giving out two freebies this week — one title you've no doubt already played (if you were ever going to try it), and one you might've missed that's worth a fair look. Today through April 29, 2021, you can claim...

Alien: Isolation is basically Home Alone if you really think about it. A bunch of people live on the Sevastopol Space Station, so it's their home. Ripley is alone, in isolation if you will. It all checks out. Alien: Isolation ...

There's a good chance that headline is an emotional rollercoaster for a lot of you. Most probably don't remember that there's a new Aliens game in development, and fewer yet will have any idea what kind of game it is. Those of you with...

April 26 was "Alien Day," a celebration of the enduring Alien movie franchise. The date (4/26) was chosen in reference to LV-426, the lonely planet on which the terrifying Xenomorph race was first discovered. In the spirit of all things Ali...

Terrifying first-person adventure Alien: Isolation will be blasting out of the airlock and onto the Switch in just a couple of weeks' time. Developed by Creative Assemblies, the award-winning 2014 release will be hitting the Nintendo platfo...

Whether we're talking movies or games, the Alien series has had plenty of highs and lows over the decades. Alien: Isolation, a tricky survival horror game from The Creative Assembly, falls in the former camp. We haven't seen much of the elu...

In the outro sizzle reel during today's Direct, we got a glimpse of some upcoming games and Alien Isolation was among them. I'm surprised the Switch can even handle such a title, but it almost makes too much sense. You'll be so scarred...

In late 2018, 20th Century Fox trademarked "Alien: Blackout," giving people hope that there was a proper sequel to Alien: Isolation on the way. That, uhh, didn't turn out to be the case. Alien: Blackout is a mobile game that laun...

The xenomorphs and the Predator race have been at war for quite some time, now. Centuries, it seems. They've duked it out in comics, video games, cinema, action figures, and the imaginations of nerds everywhere. But man, all that fighting s...

Creative Assembly's Alien: Isolation was a masterpiece, the one Alien game that eloquently approximates the sheer panic and dread of what if might feel like to be hunted by a Xenomorph. It's held in high regard by most who love th...

Alien: Blackout, a mobile follow-up to Alien: Isolation for iOS and Android, has been announced. Amanda Ripley, Ellen Ripley's daughter and protagonist of Alien: Isolation, is the star. It's a joint effort between FoxNext Games, D3 Go ...

20th Century Fox has trademarked "Alien: Blackout" as a title pertaining to "computer game discs; software, namely game software". Thanks, Dad. Upon the reveal of the news, eager fans quickly found twitter accounts for @AlienBlackout and @A...

Admit it: Earth kinda sucks. Even before all the damage caused by the parasite known as man, the place was still pretty colorless. A green forest? Yawn. A brown desert? Blech. Hell, even the most abundant resource on our planet is mostly ju...

If you're a penny pinching console gamer and are looking to score a bunch of great games, this latest Humble Bundle is right up your alley. Spanning all of Sony's PSN supported consoles, Capcom and Sega are offering up a huge amount of clas...

If you were to ask me years ago what I thought about modern day science fiction movies I could have gone on at length about how the genre that once made us look in on ourselves and think about who we are as a person had given up on telling ...

A new Alien game is being developed by Cold Iron Studios, a fairly new developer recently acquired by FoxNext Games. The studio itself was founded in 2015 and is comprised of industry veterans who have previously worked on titles such as Ne...

[LaScary (the artist formerly known as LaTerry) and I have something in common. I don’t mix well with horror games typically. For me, it’s not even the scary stuff that gets to me. I’m fine with that. It’s that dread...

[This is not a drill, people - you only have three and a half more days to play horror games. After Tuesday night, you have to put them all back on the shelf until next October. Nobody plays horror games November-September. It's illegal. Pr...

The good people of Humble Bundle have put together a collection of horror games that they consider "spooky" in a bundle presented for consideration over the next two weeks.Currently, around seven bucks will nab you Steam editions of Alien I...

[Ed Note: Film Review]  As reviled as it is (justifiably or not), Prometheus deserves a little pass for being unlike its Alien siblings in large part because of its branding. It may be in the same canon, but it&rsqu...

In recent days, rumors have been abound that Creative Assembly was working on Alien: Isolation 2. It started with Official PlayStation Magazine writing (as reported by PlayStation Universe) "Our sources tell us that after work is finished o...

Alien: Covenant, the sequel to Prometheus and a prequel to Alien, won't be the only piece of media to feature Xenomorphs this year. In fact, it probably won't even be the most terrifying. Another project might get that edge because of...

Alien: Isolation in virtual reality -- need I say more? Besides the inherent potential for terror in a game about evading a lone Xenomorph, even the more mundane sequences could work wonderfully in VR. Creative Assembly nailed the retro-fut...

Lately, Bundle Stars has been all about Sega titles. This amped up over the weekend as we saw Total War titles on sale with nearly Steam Summer Sale-like prices, but early this week Bundle Stars has turned the notch up a bit with its best o...

Today is Alien Day, the latest in a series of dubious holidays pushed by marketing departments. Unlike Back to the Future Day which has a very obvious temporal tie-in, the date for Alien Day comes from the plan...
