The three tables are Aliens, Aliens vs Predators and Aliens: Isolation. In the Aliens table you can choose at the start if you would like missions to occur as they movie’s run or randomly, there are some great nostalgic phrases from the movie included here that will bring you right back as if you were watching the films again."

Recently, I turned forty. Despite the fact I am one of the oldest gamers I personally know, turning forty really hasn't proven to be any kind of a big deal. I mean really, when you're a kid it's like every birthday is a big deal. It's sort of like life's way of saying: Wow! You survived your own stupid antics. Congrats kid! We celebrate just about everything - especially once you hit ten. Double Digits! Junior High! Teenager! Legal to drive! High school! Legal Adult! And of course then... you can drink. Beer in my case. And once the mythical age of 21 came and passed for me, I think my next notable birthday will be when I can retire. Which feels like it will be roughly when I turn 96 give or take a decade. Why is all of this relevant? Well, birthday video games and birthday beer of course! The game in question was a DLC - but a fun one all the same in ZEN Pinball 2: Aliens Vs. Pinball.
DTOID:
Today is Alien Day, the latest in a series of dubious holidays pushed by marketing departments. Unlike Back to the Future Day which has a very obvious temporal tie-in, the date for Alien Day comes from the planetoid LV-426, the in-fiction rock the Aliens were originally found on.
Yeah, seems like a stringy connection to me, too. Another flimsy excuse to hype up a franchise long past its prime and sell some merch. I'd be more upset about it, but I'm having too good a time playing Aliens vs. Pinball to really work up a good indignant fuss.
Zen Studios has managed to capture the feel of Alien while also making three fun pinball tables that will keep you playing for months to come.
