If you haven’t checked out the Aliens mods available for the original Doom, here’s another reminder of why you should.
Modder Kontra Kommando has been busy modding Aliens into the original Doom for a while. Those efforts are still worth checking out, but the crowning achievement of his efforts so far is Aliens: Trilogy.
Trilogy is a rework of his existing mod, Aliens: The Ultimate Doom, but with sprites from another total conversion called Aliens Trilogy. Aliens Trilogy didn’t have the best controls back in the day, so combining its look with Kommando’s existing mod is like a match made in heaven.
The mod also has faction fighting, with predators squaring off against Aliens and marines doing their best to not get eaten alive by the others. It’s an impressive amount of work, and there’s still more content to be added.
Aliens Trilogy (UD) hasn’t been released yet, but you can get a taste of where things are going with Kommando’s previous Aliens mod mashup, Aliens (TC) 2017.

What about the original AvP? The marine campaign was brown trousers material.
yeah first was great and the second was even better… even having access to ALICE, a Minigun and Smartgun, going into the hives was some scary shit
The old Aliens game was pretty good…its just these new ones where with all that computing power people forgot how to make a fun aliens game without the need for handicapping players with game gimmicks
i think the problem is that we are just extremely used to Aliens that the only way to make players shit themselves is to use jump scares and leave us mostly defenseless.
Is it as good as Alien Trilogy on the PSX?
I remember showing my brother the original Aliens TC for Doom when it came out. He casually fired off a round from the pistol and I told him, ‘Oh, you’ll need that bullet.’ Awesome times.
to that i have but one thing to say.. IDKFA
