Alien: Resurrection (PS1) - Player Expendable (Patreon)
Content
What?! A console game?!
Oh, yeah. A survival horror shooter on the Playstation 1. Some of you might have played this, and if you did, you are not alone. There is help. You can recover.
This is one I've wanted to make a video on since the beginning. The time was right, especially since about six months ago I found out you can play it with a mouse! Maybe you've seen the infamous GameSpot review talking about the controls:

And also this Eurogamer retrospective with a lot of pertinent info:

Either way, the game is a tightly designed bad time. As James Cameron once called Aliens "40 miles of bad road," this game is at least better than the movie it's based on.
Here's hoping we don't get immediate copyright strikes from [checks notes] Disney? Oh god, Disney owns Alien now. That is... unsettling.

If you'd like to have a different name in the credits than what you pledged with, leave me a comment, or DM me on here or Twitter or discord or whatever. If your name is wrong, not included, or anything else,
shoot me a message calling me an asshole and telling me to fix it.
Or if you want one of those fancy colored names that everyone gets now if they want. The credits in the video are usually a couple of days behind the actual patron list.
