Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations: Deluxe Edition

this is the correct link:

http://media.dsc.discovery.com/conv...net/splash.html

Just use the right mouse button option "copy hyperlink" and paste it in the address bar of your browser. (Don't forget to remove the apolyton_redirect blahblah part in front of the actual address).

Or just type in "alien planet" in the search box on the discovery channel home page. It is the first one on the list.

The von braun is the ship in System Shock 2, perhaps the best survival horror/fps/rpg ever made.

Some of the aliens resemble half life xenomorphs.

Anyone else spot anything?

The letters in ALIEN looks pretty much the same as those on the alien crossfire package.

Support Apolyton, buy Call to Power 2

In one of the movie you can see what is giving the ground coloration and its fungus. The only thing missing is mind worms!

I am trying to think of the title, but most of the alien designs on the site come from a book I saw in our local library a few years back.

I can't wait to hear what the "string theorists" and "physicists" have to say about biology.

Those 2 legged aliens look like those things from the 3rd x-com game....they used to run at you and blow up I think, or maybe grab your head, can't remember.

You are absolutely right, I love that game!
It is very scary to play it at night with a headset on and then the xenomorphs come for you
