They've already got Amanda Ripley in there which is not exactly a small reference.
It is a small reference. She's a character who has only been glimpsed at for a few seconds in a photograph in the special edition version of the film, and is pretty unknown to the "general consumer." Not to mention
Aliens influence is further negated in that the devs said what we saw in the special edition version of
Aliens may not necessarily be the character's same fate (that we the players, shouldn't be so sure that Amanda survives this game because the photo we see in
Aliens could be a corporate coverup etc, etc). Not so much
Aliens influence as all small reference to a name we've heard before.
