The storyline is advanced solely through the use of detailed text-based mission briefings at the start of each level and there are short cut scenes at the end of each game that provide a small amount of closure to the events of the preceding missions. The player undertakes the role of Ellen Ripley, the main character of the movies (portrayed by Sigourney Weaver) and apart from Bishop, there are no other major characters in the game. The game only loosely follows the storyline of the Alien movies. It was released for PlayStation and Sega Saturn in 1996, and later ported to MS-DOS in 1997.

It's a bargain.Alien Trilogy is a science fiction first person shooter loosely based on the first three Alien movies. Even years after it was made, it is still enjoyable fun, even if it may take a while to get used to. That aside, Alien Trilogy is a fun, tense and lengthy enough shooter which doesn't fail to impress. And this happens quite a lot during the course of the game. They look good from a distance, yet when they get close enough to you, they look horribly pixellated. The only gripes with the graphics are the sprite enemies. The corridors are well detailed as well, with pipes, vents and barrels making an appearance. The environments are refreshingly spooky, with steam spiralling out of broken pipes, and the pitch-black corridors are equally eerie. The 3D Engine used back in 1997-1998 is one of the best seen on the PSX back in those days, almost as good as Quake II. The polygonal worlds of Alien Trilogy look exceptional. The music is creepy, and is very nice to listen to. The sound of the pulse rifle sounds right out of the freaking movie.

Maybe a little destroying some barrels, when i look at it now it looks cheap aliens look like paper 1D not 2D but back then the graphics were GOOD. Just going around and shooting aliens is fun for hours. This game is a spin off only and not much story in it.
