The year is 1990 and Lieutenant Mike Harrigan is about to make an important discovery. Here he is, looking for revenge deep in the Predator's lair. What he doesn't realize is that he's about to blow our minds by connecting two of the greatest science fiction films of all time. See that? It's an Alien skull, which means that at some point the Predators went head-to-head with a xenomorph.

You have to understand, this was nearly two dozen years ago; long before Hollywood muddied the lore with two mediocre Alien vs. Predator movies. The very idea that these two franchises could secretly be connected was more than my twelve year old brain could handle. But even as aliens and predators danced in my head, deep down I knew what Mike Harrigan was going to say.
 
So in honor of the Lieutenant's hard work, today we're going to look at five video games that are secretly connected.  By most accounts these games have nothing to do with each other, but a closer examination reveals secret ties that suggest they exist in the same universe. Don't worry, it's not as complicated as it sounds.
