    I’m going to say Alien 3 on the SNES because I can’t remember there being any other Alien game on the SNES.

    Also, it looks like Rippley is bald.

    It is Alien 3 – Megadrive version.

    But doesn’t the colour scheme in that shot just make you think of Flashback?

      Well done, Mr Cocks. It is indeed the Mega Drive version.

        Oh snap. Although I don’t even remember A3 hitting the Megadrive as it is.

    Just to clarify folks. It is not the SNES version of the game. That has a different UI (see SNES screenshot here – http://www.fortunecity.co.uk/cinerama/western/129/alien3snes4.gif.

    It is the Megadrive/Genesis version in that shot as it is the only one with that specific UI.

    :P

    You’re all wrong, even the goose. That’s Super Hornio Brothers.

    Never played or saw the game, but as soon as I saw it I thought of Geiger….so Alien/s was the guess.

    OMG this is the first of these I’ve known (and I knew it was Mega Drive version too, because I had it).

    I had the Master System version of this. It’s a really good game and it’s held up surprisingly well if you go back and give it a play again.
