AlienVs.Predator

I was already excited about Sega/Rebellion's Alien Vs. Predator video game, but I fear they may have driven me into a rabid level of anticipation with their new pre-order goodies. Alien Vs. Predator: Hunter Edition is the name of the $99 set that includes the game, four multi-player maps that won't be made public until a later date, an articulated facehugger, a hardcover Dark Horse Alien Vs. Predator book, a Weyland-Yutani sleeve badge, and a 3-D postcard.

I'm hoping a demo is on the way soon. It's a great pre-order incentive, but the game still has to be pretty good to justify the cost. I don't know about you, but I don't want to wait until February 16 (the game's planned launch date) to find out.

Figures.com has a picture of the collector's set, which you can view after the jump.

Probably the single coolest and lamest aspect of Alien vs. Predator: Requiem was the weird looking PredAlien monster, which was a combination of the Predator and the Alien. As if either creature alone wasn't dangerous enough to humans, throw this puppy into the equation and you've got yourself a messy clean up. Those of you out there who were fans of the PredAlien might want to head over to Sideshow Collectibles as you can now pre-order a pretty freaktastic-looking PredAlien concept bust. Due out in the fourth quarter of 2009, she'll set you back a hearty $180, but she'll look great next to grandma's fine china collection.

Here's one of the great things about Sigourney Weaver: She's probably cool with me using an old pic from Aliens with this post instead of one from her new project, the Lifetime movie Prayers for Bobby.

I spoke with Weaver for TV Squad recently about the Emmy buzz for her performance in Prayers for Bobby and her future TV projects. She also talked about some of her iconic film roles. I asked the three-time Oscar nominee if she'd ever consider revisiting some of those roles, like Ellen Ripley from Aliens and Ghostbuster's Dana Barrett. I found her answers to be quite surprising. Here's what she had to say:
