They can bill me…

April 26 was “Alien Day,” a celebration of the enduringAlienmovie franchise. The date (4/26) was chosen in reference to LV-426, the lonely planet on which the terrifying Xenomorph race was first discovered. In the spirit of all thingsAlien, Steam is currently running a limited-time discount on all franchise–related games.

You can bag Creative Assemblies’ excellent 2014 releaseAlien: Isolationfor the sweet price of just $2.00 USD/£1.50 GBP, while its various DLC expansions – including movie adaptationCrew Expendable– are similarly discounted. Also on offer are Rebellion’s 2010 shooterAlien vs. Predator, Zen Studios’Alien vs. Pinball, and Sega’s notoriously poor 2013 releaseAliens Colonial Marines. The sale ends tomorrow, so you know the drill, assholes and elbows.
