Aliens Canon

Post by monkeysfist101 » 01 Dec 2015, 19:51

I'd like the official word from the server gods as to what is canon. Everyone agrees it's a mess, but there is rhyme and reason to it.

As far as official sources go, the canon list is:
Alien
Aliens
Alien^3
Alien: Resurrection
Aliens: Colonial Marines
Alien: Isolation
Prometheus

From what I can tell, the server uses elements from:
Alien (Other than the eggs and facehuggers, not as much as you'd think)
Aliens (The Queen, drones, marines, and 90% of anything not mentioned on the list.)
Alien^3 (Again, not much. Runners and I've heard there's the ape-suits)
Aliens: Colonial Marines (SMG, Boilers, Spitters, M41A Mk2, and PMC Uniforms)
Predator (Take a guess.)
Predator 2 (Keep guessing.)
Predators (Third time's the charm?)
AVP (Aliens and Predators in the same universe.)
AVP Game (Praetorians, M42C Scoped Rifle)
AVP: Extinction (Ravagers, Carriers)
Alien: Isolation (Revolver)

Simply put, our official canon is what I say it is. I may "borrow" one or two things from something, but that doesn't make the whole source canon.

If you want to see our canon, read the wiki.

Also, your missing a shit-ton of novels/comics from the canon...

From what I heard, the comics and books fall to a second tier of canon. Anything in the books/comics that does not conflict the movies is deemed canon.

Yea there's a ton of random shit that isn't from the universe. Love the Nanotrans jet pods designed like the pods from 2001: A Space Odyssey :3
