Apparently Hicks didn't die at the start of Alien 3. During hypersleep he was actually kidnapped by Weyland Yutani mercenaries and taken back to LV426, while the one who died at the start of Alien 3 was a body double. This has since became part of the continuity since Fox regards Aliens Colonial Marines to be canon.

Good luck finding people who'll take the Colonial Marines game as a serious part of the continuity.

Which is fine with me, I don't consider Alien 3, Resurrection, or either of the AvP films canon.

Which you'll notice only Gearbox trumpeted at every possible turn, not any official Fox representatives. Plausible deniability... We also don't know what the exact circumstances of that alleged blessing were, either or precisely who had said it.

No, it doesn't.  It adds some bullshit bits into Alien3, that only a very small minority are ever going to give any credence.

A:CM on the other hand definitely is canon, and the ONLY reason it was given 'official sequel status' by Fox.
