Obsidian (the makers of KOTOR 2 and NWN2) are making an Alien/s themed RPG. Presumably a single-player one, but still. I, for one, cannot wait to play the Jerkface Lawyer class!

Alien/s is a property that is clearly ideally suited for more action-oriented gameplay, with numerous examples of that in action, so it will be interesting to see how the game becomes ‘RPGed’. For my money, I probably would have considered a different direction, and focused on making it like horror games like Resident Evil. The original Alien was, after all, a horror film first and foremost.
