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!

I think Willie has that on his big, seconday list of stuff to add.

I think I had a copy of that as well back in the day. As I recall I couldn't
get it to work either.

I bought a used DS for $20 just so I could play that game, which I got for around $9 usd. Def worth it.

Updated the game list. Thanks for the good picture Kelly.S645!
