I don't. Found this poster. Not sure what it was made for, but I want one now.

if you look at the logo on the poster, it says "SNK vs. CAPCOM" which was a fighting game that was released in the Arcades and it featured Lynn as one of the playable characters. (I'm 99% sure)

I like Lynn by the way, reminds me of Machiko Naguchi (who should have been in the game really).. ;D

Well she is a cyborg. They did at least offer up that excuse.

Its still not a particularly intelligent thing, but I'm of the opinion that not everything has to be. This game was made in the name of mindless fun, not artistic integrity.

Shes not a cyborg but a synthetic like Bishop, Dutch is a Cyborg(must've gotten the idea from Terminator.)
And for the most part they stayed true to Alien and Predator whether the comics or the movies.

Not quite, but close. That logo is actually SNK-Capcom.com, a forum I visit quite a bit. Unfortunately, it's down at the moment. :(

The poster was commissioned just for SNK-Capcom.com's webstore. You can buy it if you want!

I would love to see Linn Kurosawa in other games by Capcom, but since she was created just for the AvP game, I believe she actually belongs to Fox, even though Capcom created her in the first place. I don't think Capcom thinks it's worth dealing with the whole IP thing. Kurosawa has appeared as cameos in some of Capcom's games, like in Street Fighter Alpha 2 in Ken's stage. She's chillin' in the pool alongside other Capcom characters.


As for the game, I loved it then and I still love it now. Lots of great fun. The Predator Hunter was my favorite character with his naginata and discs but every character is different and fun to play.

I'm pretty sure the game state's that she's a cyborg too, just like Dutch. Check out 4:23 mark in this video for said claim.

First of all Fox did not create Linn therefore it's not theirs, im pretty sure capcom copyrighted that character, and second, I'd like to point out that sometimes when games from japan are localized for western audiences theres usually some mistakes in spelling, grammar, punctuation etc
could have been a case in lost in translation.

I played this game about a half year ago at a local restaurant. Beat it with about 20 quarters! :)
