Canceled four years ago, Aliens: Crucible was supposed to be an Aliens role-playing game, which always struck me as kind of weird. The film didn't seem like it would translate well to an RPG; hell, it didn't translate well to a shooter. Hey-oooooo ...
But material from Obsidian's development of the game, which ended in 2009, continues to spill out in dribs and drabs.

He uploaded the video a month ago and only recently set it to public.
