That's what I fear the most when I'm playing marine. Not the xenos or predators but those goddamn facehugger that always get me when I'm fighting other things or when I'm low on ammo.
Talk about jumpscare done right.
Use your smart gun, just make sure you have it set on "smart".

Also when you see eggs, just torch and grenade the fuck out of the entire room. Take no chances. :D
I remember that these little fuckers scared the shit out of me when I was a kiddo so much, I could not play the alien game on my PSX.
A few years ago, I was man enough to go an play an alien game (this one, before it was available on GOG), but everytime I heard the "taptaptaptap" of those tiny legs, I could not but start throwing rockets at the floor, creating a mayhem of fire and smoke. When that deadly fog fade away, the upside corpse of one of those face fuckers remained there, quietly. I spent another 2 mags into the corpse to ensure its dead state, and proudly teabagged that asshole.
The pride faded away when I realised I had wasted all my ammo on a shitty asshole and had to restart.

I'm going to be 39 on Monday, they still scare the shit out of me. :P That was the one aspect of the games and movies that hit on every primal fear and they did it well.

Oh, they do still scare the shit ot of me. When I was a child I literally dropped the controller and started running out of the room while screaming like a little bitch (hard to explain to grandma). Now, even if with fear, at least I can play.
I must have some trauma with insectoid devouring aliens, as I couldn't finish the level with the worm in SW JK Jedi Academy neither.
Fucking facehuggers. And they are modeled after vaginas too. No wonder the hit primal fears. A world where flying vaginas with lots of feet jump to facerape you and eventually lead in a hearth kaboom... Nightmare.

I never thought of the vagina thing. Chalk another one up to Freud. :P

How you survived to the radar sound? When was children I was able to finish the PRedator levels, half of the aliens (got very dizzy that time and now) but not the marine... creepy radar.

Anyway, for the original question, flamethrower is very useful but probably the grenades are a better idea (IF YOU see the eggs)

P.d. but the people who got worse time with the Alien franchises... the one who had to remove the eggs from the film set (They were made with organic part and were forgotten in the set by months, so, the smell had to be SPECIAL)

The PSX game did not have the radar if my memory is right. Didn't have the minerales to play it neither (I only played it twice since I discovered those little monsters, I had actual terror xD). My first experience with the radar was with the 2010 AvP, which isn't as scary (in fact, I enjoyed the bipping sound, as the facehuggers are nothing more than a QTE without keys) and later with the 2000's original. But at this time, I already was on my late teens, so even if the radar created a lot of tension, at least I could play the game.
