Didnt see this one on the list; Anyone ever play "Aliens: A comic book adventure" (PC, 1995 Mindscape). I found that one for like $3 at "Ollies" ("good stuff cheap" was their motto. Mostly it seemed like "cheap crap cheap"!) The game crashed my PC any time I tried to play it. Curious if it even ever worked! |
