I really don't think we want to start accusing video game companies of steeling concepts from the old pencil-and-paper rpg's. That would make it near impossible to create a futuristic or fantasy based video game without it having at least one aspect that has been "ripped off" from some module somewhere. Heck, when you look at the old pen-and-paper rpgs, much of that was taken from literature and even from obscure articles written at the time.

That said tho, you're right, some people who are unaware of the History of the Tyranids will spout that crap. Educate them or ignore them.... or pile some crap on them, we can always use more crap.
