Sorry for causing a frustrating point to come into being here guys.  what i
basically meant was that people probably just do it because they've heard it
and know of it - I've never heard it, thus not knowing of it.  Therefore, I
do what i believe is right worldwide and call the game by its name! :d

Sorry if any annoyance has been caused by myself on this matter.

Ben.

Hi Charles,

Same here. I  don't consider myself ignorant or lazy, but have slipped
up and said Aliens in the Outback a number of times myself. I believe
the reason is that Aliens in the Outback sounds grammatically correct
while Alien Outback sounds grammatically wrong. Even though Alien
Outback is the actual name. So subconsciously I correct it.

Cheers!
