Is ALIEN TRILOGY Or RESURRECTION The Better FPS? - REVIEW 

Subscribe if you enjoyed and let me know what you thought, socials in the description!

05:00 - Fun fact: the first Medal of Honor game had a control option to use dual analog sticks. But because there were no crosshairs, you had to rely on the bullet trails if you intended to run and gun COD style. Or you could just tape a makeshift red dot on your TV to know where the crosshair should be at all times. Medal of Honor underground has the crosshair option so that feels even more like a modern fps game on the PS1.

Resurrection the game is so underrated. It's super atmospheric especially for a PS1 game. When I was first walking through the corridors, I was astounded at all the visual effects with the smoke and the electricity and the flashing lights and the dripping water, and it's amazing how modern the controls are like you said. I hope someday you decide to make more videos cuz this is some pretty good content to my dude

Alien Trilogy was really good on the PS1..............NIGHTDIVE, we need a Remaster......PLEASE!

Resurrection movie was a lot of fun. I was laughing while watching it. And I think it's ok for films to be different from one another.

Hey, dunno if you'e aware of this, but the original version of the PS1 Alien Resseurection, when it was a third person shooter was leaked online a few months ago. Thought you might get a kick out of it, especially if you ever want to do a follow up :)

The original Medal of Honor is the only game I know on Playstation that could use dual analogue sticks with "the modern standard layout" before Alien Resurrection Love the channel, hope you upload again

I have only played Alien Trilogy! It was the best game I had, on the PS1!

"A game about fucking aliens" well I wasn't expecting that

I would definitely recommend everybody at least emulate Resurrection just to see the crazy ambiance. I didn't know atmosphere like that was possible in a PS1 game in a PS1 game

12:58 yikes that is one awful gun firing sound effect. It sounds like headache inducing factory machinery. 19:22 this is the moment I realized why you were sounding extra snarky in this review. I had a feeling Resurrection would break you.

The best thing about Alien Trilogy is definitely the soundtrack

Funny thing - The controller setup was reviled by the reviewers at the time as being horrible and hard to control. Funny how a few years later when Halo came out it was celebrated as 'revolutionary' and set the gold standard on how to make an FPS work on consoles.

"Because I'm lazy and this isn't Digital Foundry" 👍😜 Really liked that, fellow in laziness! Like your video!

im a huge fan of both games ^^ resurrection was actually my first experience with alien series never saw the films or heard of them i got it cause i heavily into FPS games and remember the first time i saw a facehugger scaring me shitless xD but yeah honestly i love both games but i do agree that resurrection has alot of balancing issues x.x and is very trial and error and with its far away saves i fully get why people get put off with it honestly to get the best experience with that game is to run on pc get that 60fps patch and get it to run with keybored and mouse and with save States you are in for a much muuch better time but yeah awesome video always love to see people talk about resurrection x3 dont see many people talk on it and always love to see peoples thoughts on it ^-^ is a game that i have alot of love for and always enjoy hearing others thoughts on it etc :) alien trilogy is awesome to

I know people have already probably said it a million times but I think it's so hilarious that this game was panned for its clunky controls, but nowadays this is basically almost exactly how Shooters are played

Don't compare anything you make to digital foundry, they sure can analyze technology, but that's about all they can do without going full corporate propaganda mode with their opinions and suggestions. Great video as always, I'm binging your channel a little.

Finally played Resurrection for the first time, you nailed my thoughts on it completely. Although I gave up when I reached Distephano’s stage. It has that European BS game design with unfair enemy placement and high HP that depletes ammo. The final straw for me is that the game allows you to save nearby hostiles (Hmm I wonder when they fixed that ;)) So it was a death loop over and over. It’s such a shame because the whole presentation and effort that went into the game is a 10/10 but I have to give it a 6.

There is actually one simple solution the developers could of made to Alien Resurrection that would have helped balance the difficulty and that is Auto Regeneration at least for Ripley in her levels since she has alien dna mixed in. If that featured was incorporated it would of helped in progress the game so much. like say you survive one room full of enemies you wait a while to regenerate and than progress, this game would of felt slower but you would of at least been able to slowly but surely progress. If they ever decide to remake or remaster it, they should def add that feature, it would improve gameplay tremendously.

Played alien resurrection as a 6 - 7 year old kid and got stuck on the evacuation level. 20 years later i tried it again (normal mode with infinite saves). It was hard as nails but managed to beat the game without cheats and being blindly upon when i would get ammo. All levels were nicely designed (besides the cheap deathtraps) and most area's were really fun. However it takes alot of trial and error. Also at a certain point as you play the game for the first time, you will end up with no ammo or low ammo and are forced to find ways to kill all enemies with a pistol while running backwards in levels to have enough space and time to shoot and don't get hit, and still kill them so you can progress. And if that succeeds you can go back and save that progression when possible. This strategy and saving the game in 3 different memory spaces is what took me to beat the game. If i didnt had multiple save files with less ammo spend, then restarting the whole game would be nessecary because some areas or levels require enough ammo, where the run away backwards and shoot with pistol strategy just can't work. It shouldnt be this hard to beat a game. However making a little progress, beating a level and getting just a bit further than you ever did, is immensly satisfying feeling you can have with a challanging game. And in that this game beats all others.

When I got my ps1 when I was 5 it came with alien trilogy I only got to play it a few times before getting to scared

Oh man, Alien Resurrection. Almost a great game. I tried to play this on my Psone back then and even with using a mouse I had a really hard time... but damn. That atmosphere. Absolutely gorgeous.

Alien Resurrection is very impressive but hard as nails.

Brilliant video 👍 I remember seeing a trailer for the Alien Resurrection game on the Aliens VHS re-release, there it was a third person shooter. I only picked it up recently and for a PS1 game is quite an achievement although balls hard!

Never played any of these games yet, but I love how the control layout in Alien Resurrection would become what most modern fps games use today, really only revolutionised by Halo 1. Funny how IGN shat of this control layout back then, lol.

I completed Alien Trilogy on Saturn. I think it is pretty great. It could have used a bit more variety, but otherwise it was great. I only played Resurrection for a bit. Such a shame thr Saturn version got cancelled.

Night dive remasters alien trilogy for switch, with resurrection remastered thrown in, 8 pound, great offer, lap it up.

You mentioned Alien Trilogy giving you enough firepower to deal with what it throws at you, did you find you relied on the bonus rooms to have enough ammo? I found myself running out until I restarted the playthrough and focused more on bonuses levels and secrets.

Aliens resi is such a brilliant game even now i think it still stands up ….cool reviews as always x

Alien Trilogy smokes Resurrection. The problem with Resurrection is it was just too dakn difficult even after mastering the dual sticks...no thank you. If you love Alien Trilogy you need to try AVP for the Jaguar. That was the game that made me an AVP fan.

Great video! I will say though that your comment about alien: isolation bugs me, as it is far from a “haunted house” walking simulator. There’s a bunch of survival horror elements like weapons, tools, other enemies that drain your ammo, and plenty of resource management, as well as the freedom to do any encounter in the way you see fit. The alien itself is pretty in line with the unstoppable antagonists like Mr. X. It’s more resident evil VII than outlast

There were a LOT of FPS from that time and trilogy seems to have a lot more style than the likes of Kileak.

these games make my poop stand on the edge of the hole waiting to release after a alien appears, 🤣man these are where horrors need to learn that the atmosphere makes the eventual jump scare even more better, but saying that I probably won't be playing games like this anymore I am so unhealthy I think one more jump scare will give me a heart attack

I hope they remaster these games and add options to them.

Hey dude if you don’t want your copy of resurrection I’ll gladly take it off your hands

I thought Ripley has Laser Rifle. I need to check if I have it in my playthrough. I hope I do and you just missed it.

Cool reviews! I discovered you channel yesterday! Now I am a subscriber! 😂

Good production. Earned a sub. On the human enemies in Resurrection, I noticed your aim is awful, which contributes greatly to the difficulty. The game is compatible with the PS1 mouse. I was able to finish the game without cheating using that. I strongly recommend giving that a try. Definitely feels like the game was tuned for it. Still hard as nails, but removes a lot of the cheapness.

you wrong. Best fps in ps1 is Disruptor, made by insomniac.

Trilogy looks good.... I saw Resurrection at the cinema and quite liked it... but not seen it since. That game does not sound appealing which is a shame as it seems like it COULD have been good.
