Wow, there's a lot more variety here than I expected. Color me surprised.
Anyway, I forgot to put my favorite memory from the arcade game: Zombies. Yes, zombies. Apparently the chestbursters can control the bodies of their hosts before they hatch, resulting in purple-skinned zombies. Now I would facepalm, but at age 9 I naturally thought it was the coolest thing ever.
@Bloo: I agree about Extinction. I used to replay the first alien level over and over again, trying to build the perfect hive. I even had a room for the corpses to be stored, and for some reason came up with a jingle in my head for the Xeno's terrible (yet hilarious) dragging animation, because I am weird.
