    Use EightyOne, it can be found in the Emulators section of WoS.

    Two ZX81 emulators which I've used are ZX81 (freeware) by Paul Robson and XTender (shareware) by Carlo Delhez; they both support .P files. XTender is somewhat more refined, but ZX81 has a built-in machine code debugger which is handy. However, I've only used them on old DOS PCs; I don't know how they'd perform on a modern PC; the processors might be too fast for them.

    I can't recall where I got ZX81, there's no URL in the instructions, and the links which I tried from a Google search are all broken. However, XTender is still at Carlo Delhez's Xtender page. There are also some programs on the WoS Emulators page which are listed as providing ZX81 emulation and are probably more up-to-date.

    as above to run .P files you need a ZX-81 Emulator

    the one I use on my PC is "EIGHTY ONE"

    this can be downloaded from the WOS site

    This is the download link

    ftp://ftp.worldofspectrum.org/pub/sinclair/emulators/pc/windows/EightyOne1.0.zip

    this is EIGHTY ONE on my Quad core pc on Vista running Alien.p

    1) It is: ftp://ftp.worldofspectrum.org/pub/sinclair/zx81/games/a/ (I think... I haven't compared them)
    2) Because the ZX81 isn't a Spectrum.

    Well a quick search on google tells me these dates...

    Alien 1979
    Aliens 1986
    Alien 3 1992
    Alien 4 1997

    Predator 1987
    Predator 2 1990

    Alien vs Predator 2004

    The Zx-81 was brought out in 1981 and the software lasted about 2 years
    the was no games produced for the zx-81 in 1986 onwards
    so you are wasting your time looking for any different Alien games for the ZX-81
