Why isn't the Aliens Vs Predator series more popular or Alien & Predator games in general? Why isn't Giger'art style utilized by a proper company & studio? Why did Dune & 20th Century Fox drop the ball so hard with him?

Aliens vs Predator was a soulless corporate cash grab in the 90s from a time when crossovers were popular, the two franchises really don't fit well together. From a gameplay perspective though AvP 1 and 2 were pretty good. Then 3 came out right when everyone forgot how to make good games.

I guess that the original hr giger style isnt accepted by normies outside of alien and when its done by others is done as a "reference" simply because the sexual horror theme is either too hard for them to recreate or they are too much of a pussy to do.
>see the shitty game that literally had one main thing and it was copying the hr ginger style.
So yeah. Outside of alien the aesthetic of something biotechnological and inherently sexual is extinct...

3 came out when everyone had abandoned game editor. If 3 had open sourced and released a user-friendly and powerful editor then it would have been an amazing game cause the art style & renderer was very impressive for its time, only rivaled by Isolation & Battlefront which released 4-5 years later.

However yes 2010 was indeed one of the shortest fucking game I have ever played rivaling Colonial Marines' in shortness.
2-3 hours for the Marine & Predator campaign each AS A FIRST TIMER. and 1 hour with the Alien campaign AS A FIRST TIMER.

It indeed was a tech demo. But unlike Crysis, Crysis actually had a game and proper multiplayer to play and a bunch of other features. Everyone else copied Crysis without understanding that the guy in an armored suit isn't really slow, he's just heavy, but not slow. Everyone didn't get the memo on making a creature feel heavy yet fast.

Giger had 2 more puzzle adventure games before and everyone said both games sucked ass gameplay wise.

The weird thing about Alien/Giger/Thomas Brothers' Predator is that they get referenced/copied by everyone, while Fox looks the other way cause it's "just a reference" while every BIG STUDIO for some reason is not allowed to make an actual good Giger game else they get sued.

There were RTS games which inspired from Giger's style in a more metallic way.
But overall everyone simply "inspires" from Giger rather than 100% copying such as Scorn being a bit too fleshy and not utilizing the metal & ghostly style of Giger's art, however it does utilize a lot of bones so they at least got that right. What they didn't get right was all the blood.

Aliens 1986 was simply easy to make video games for such as Contra, but 1979 simply came at a wrong time, Fox kept holding the IP by the balls and also ... Giger is simply a stylistic drawfag rather than writer lorefag like Tolkien so it's hard to make a game or even a story about an art style that has no story to begin with, no characters, no lore, no nothing. Giger like every drawfag is just a caveman with a brush who can't give meaning to his art beyond abstract emotions.
