I mostly agree with this list, however I'd put actually put AVP above Alien 3 and Resurrection. Alien 3 was LOLLETSKILLEVERYONEAWFUL, while Resurrection was an utter joke of a film. I'm not saying AVP was good, far from it, but 3 and 4 were painful to watch.
As for the videogames..

One of the reasons I like Alien 3 so much besides the characters them selves is that it was shown that no one is safe in the A/P/AvP/Pro universe. Believe it or not it was Weavers choice to have Ripley killed in the Alien 3 story. I agree with the reasoning behind he decision to have her killed as well. IT was because she felt Ripley in every movie she shows up in and would show in the future, would end up doing the same old same old, devise a plan to deal with an alien that is stalking them, bark orders, and narrowly escape.
The one thing that bugs me is that she has to keep coming back into the stories. They already have a replicant of her that believes its the real Ripley, then you got the Alien human Ripley hybrids, and now we got Amanda Ripley and the game and all the novels she is in. They need to leave the Ripleys out of the saga unless they stop making them character clones.
Going back to why I like to how its shown that no character is safe in the saga, I don't know if you've noticed but like 90% of every story in the four mediums has been killed by Aliens.
Besides the Aliens themselves like Warrior LV-1201, or 6, the only characters to survive I recall are Hicks, Winter, in spirit Ripley because of the replicants, Amanda so far I hope she dies though, The Marines on LV-742, Jonesy the cat, Morse was a survivor till they showed in Aliens: Colonial Marines that WY more than likely used him as a host, Dr. Church, Daniel Grant, Major Lee, Cpl. Hendrickson, Palmer, Deegan. Even few Yautja survive.
The list might look like a lot but just to sum it up no humans survive AvP 1-3 pc / Xbox, none survive Aliens: Infestation and their around 20-30 human characters in that one. Most of the novels and comics end with ether all the characters dead, most dead, and a little more than half the time defeat via Aliens. Salazar VII, its a very important colony world, comes to mind where the humans were using super weapons on the Aliens to retake that world and the Aliens adapted to the chemical weapons and the humans were forces to leave, same as LV-742, LV-1201, LV-426, BG-386, for a good time Earth, all European and Asian nations as well as people where lost, only survivors were off world and or in colonies / fleets from those countries.
I have to disagree with you on Alien: Isolation, the only games that I think it is better than are the movie based games (excluding Alien 3 SNES), Concrete Jungle, ALIENS TRILOGY (its a tough one because the atmosphere and music were awesome in that game) ALIENS: Thanatos Encounter, AvP Jag.
To me for sure AvP 2 / Primal Hunt, ALIENS: Colonial Marines / Signal Interrupted, AvP: Extinction, ALIENS: Infestation, AvP CAPCOM, and ALIEN 3 SNES are the finest gems in the saga.
Now I don't think ALIEN 3 SNES is the best out of the list of what I think is the best but what make it so good is that it, along with ALIENS: Infestation, play a heck of a lot like Super Metroid. The SNES revision of the tunes from the ALIEN 3 musical score are freaking awesome as well. Look up the "game over" sequence for Alien 3. If I could stream games on Twitch, no mater what series they are from, I would have the game over sequence from Alien 3 pop on the screen when / if I die. "Destroy all The eggs" is also a very cool track from ALIEN 3 SNES.
