Aliens: Colonial Marines: 10 Classic Moments It Needs To Reference

5. Sentry Guns (Aliens)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HQDy-5IQvuU One of the most taut and stressful sequences in James Cameron's masterful sci-fi actioner is one that fans only uncovered when watching the Special Edition, a visceral, frantic segment in which the Marines set up a series of sentry guns in the hallway leading to their location, such that when the xenomorphs show up to raise Hell, they're promptly ripped into Swiss cheese by these gigantic guns. However, they also end up expending masses of ammo far quicker than expected, causing the sentry guns to be only a temporary solution to the problem. In the game, this should be a timed mission, whereby you have to perform a series of tasks before the sentry ammo runs out; if you don't keep an eye on the ammo reserves and they hit zero, the xenomorphs will breach your location and rip you to shreds. Perhaps there could even be the opportunity to re-stock the ammo supplies if you're quick enough.
