The Alien Hominid character is available for any gamertag that has any achievement in Alien Hominid HD. You can purchase the full game on the Xbox Live Marketplace for 800MS points. If you want the Alien Hominid character but you don’t want to purchase Alien Hominid HD, you can play the game on somebody’s Xbox that has purchased the full game. I realize that is likely a very rare scenario, but it does work if you do have access to the full version of Alien Hominid HD. Simply move your gamertag to a memory card and play the full version of Alien Hominid HD until you get an achievement. Beating the first level in Alien Hominid HD will net you the easiest achievement in the game. Just remember to turn the difficulty to the easiest level before you try to get your achievement.
