There's a huge starcraft / james cameron crossover, the shuttle pilot from starcraft is a complete rip off of the pilot from Aliens, complete with several lines of dialog being ripped off word for word. So I can sure see why you'd make that connection.

Which brings up ye olde "ripoff/homage" debate. I think Penny Arcade did a strip about it.
Actually, Starcraft was based on a combination of the Space Marines from both Warhammer 40K and Aliens, much like Warcraft had a suspicious resemblance to Warhammer.
