I've been running an AvP game with my group for years. You can play Aliens, Predators or humans. Want me to e-mail you my character sheets? they're kinda homebrew RQ.

It's been discussed before, the AvP licence is too expensive.
Although I think that was partly because they wanted to do minis.

An rpg would be great, it would sell, and i would love to see it.
Problem was fox wanted to charge mongoose for the aliens and predaor licenses seperately because mongoose wanted to use stuff form all three continuities, and that shot the deal in the head.
Now, an RPG of AVP would be sweet, but since wizkids have the license for the few miniatures they do, this seems unlikely.
Mongoose wanted to do a space hulk style game for AVP, but it was too expensive considering the scale of the game. I think it was mentioned in a signs and portents article that they would have done it for a large mass battle game (which I think personally would have rocked) but it seems unlikely at this stage.
But I r4eally do qwant and would buy an AVP rpg, just avp. You could get around wanting to use stuff from the alien quadrilogy or predator movies by simply leaving in a large armoury, changing stuff, and of course giving rules to modifiy aliens with a bunch of traits, so you can have different speices that appeared in various movies in your game by doing a bit of work so mongoose do not have to pay a license fee.
I want an AVP rpg.

There was an "Alien" RPG back in the early 90's, unlicensed and unofficial. I had my hands on a copy for about a week and can't remember a dang thing about it, other than that it had pictures from the movies and lots of quotes.
I'm pretty sure the studio came down really hard on the people who made it. I can't even find traces of it on the web. Might have been local to the Midwest.
There's a video game RPG lined up for Alien at some point. Wikipedia says SEGA bought the rights to it.

With Rebellion making a new AvP video game http://www.sega.co.uk/news/?n=2991 this might be a viable license.
Travller: AvP maybe?
