I'm a MAJOR fan of the Alien and Predator series of movies actually, and I've played many many many hours of AvP 2 back in the day :D . Though the modern AvP game lacks fun in many ways, the visuals are fantastic and do give you at least a small amount of immersion into your role. It took me a while to get a good shot like this though, and I painted the reticle a bit because unlike in the movies, the reticle in the game is very transparent which looks rather bad. I think the resulting picture is quite satisfactory :D .

You're not far off, but no dice. Kyle should really know or at least be able to take a good guess, though.

And it's not a beach Alias, it's a 'Sound' |8

Nah, Mac's gone. Still waiting on the company that took it off my hands to pay me for it though, going to have to get ahold of them soon if they don't, bastards.

If you're not going to use Aero, at least get a non-ugly basic theme :P
