Alien 3 is often considered the low point of the movie series (despite being directed by the great David Fincher), but it also spawned this 1993 light gun game from Sega, which was better received than its inspiration. Alien 3: The Gun loosely follows the setting of the movie, but with a focus entirely on gunning down hordes of attacking aliens across numerous industrial-style levels. Its gun mechanics differ slightly from the usual, in that you never actually run out of ammo but must pause shooting periodically for your gun to recharge. The game's engrossing sprite-based graphics and frenetic style make it an enjoyable taste of early 90s shooting action.
