An okay platformer...

User Rating: 5 | Alien 3 GEN
...though increasingly tedious and a bit dull. As usual for film tie-ins of the time it had little do with the story of Alien 3. Ripley runs about with a big gun (there were no guns in the film) shooting at loads of aliens (there was only one in the film) through many different levels. While the levels looks good and had a decent atmosphere about them it looked nothing like the Fury-161 prison/refinery of the movie and all you really did in them was jump from platform to platform and go up and ladders. Occasionally a Xenomorph would rush and knock you over if you didn't blow it away. It became really boring after a while and only those with seriously nothing better to do would be able to stick it out until the end. And why is Ripley alive at the end?
