It is almost certain there is Alien life in our universe. I also believe that any Aliens in games/movies are also real but just in different universes because if there is a infinite amount of universes one will almost surly cause those events to take place

Alien/UFO 15 Signs Why Aliens Actually Exist

More the possibility that our universe is only one of a possibly infinite number. Something that is yet to be proved or disproved by science. One that many physicists think is incapable of proving even if true. The strangest ones are that the other universes may have completely different laws of physics. As if the possibility of life completely different from our own within the laws of our universe isn't enough, the possibility of infinite sorts of life across infinite universes, that can never interact is enough to make your head hurt.

Imagine if there is life on millions of other planets, all looking completely different to us, but at the same place in their development as we are. That means, until we create the resources to visit other planets in other galaxies, then no other 'alien' species will do the same.
Or... there is life on all planets, but due to the way our eyes see things, we cant see any of the other life forms and their civilasations.

The Napolean one was a hoax, not sure what your source is, but I'd say some or all of those are BS (I didn't read all, did some research when I hit the Napolean one and got side tracked).
Five years ago I would of said the idea of extra terrestrial life is ludicrous. These days I am extremely confident that there is life of some form outside of planet Earth
Happens to me all the time too.
lol, I came back after a couple of hours of watching youtube conspiracy clips & other paranormal/conspiracy forums.
Stumbled on a 9/11 clip that suggested thermite was used to demolish the buildings
Still want to look into those bankers who recently committed suicide
The problem is that we actually believe that we're intelligent...........Intelligent compared to what we may have in front of us but possibly millions of years behind where the universal standard may be.
When you multiply 500 billion stars in our galaxy by another probable 500 billion galaxies on the plane that we're even somewhat aware of, chances are that there just may be something a little smarter out there than us. Odds would suggest so.
I know Prometheus gets canned quite regularly around these parts but it's somewhat unique in terms of the theme that it's subsequent story will head down.
The only thing I'm disappointed about is that I had the idea for it many years ago.............I'm just no Ridley Scott.

I think it's very unlikely that two intelligent species could ever co-develop to an advanced state on the same planet. The natural inclination towards conquest and domination as part of the evolutionary process would mean one would be wiped out before either could evolve to an enlightened enough level to co-exist.
Either that or the weaker species would be subjugated and enslaved to such an extent that their evolution would be slowed to the point of being classed as animals by the time the dominant species became enlightened enough to start caring about anyone but themselves.

Well that would depend on a number of things.
Even here, humans reached fairly advanced levels of civilization all over the world while being in complete ignorance of everybody else. It was only a few hundred years ago that the great southern continent was somewhat of a myth, and yet now we live on it.
It would be quite possible for two technological civilizations to be geographically isolated prior to reaching technology on par with the 1800's.
They could even be forced into sharing a planet. We humans are pretty adaptable and are able to live almost anywhere on the planet. Perhaps on another, one species can't go far from the equator, while another inhabits the poles.

We still had a significant lag between developing the technology to explore the planet and evolving the moral code needed to treat newly discovered races with basic empathy.
Look how brutal we were with each other even at a relatively advanced stage of our development - the treatment of the South American tribes by the Spanish, the institutionalised enslaving of black-skinned people by a supposedly civilised nation despite espousing doctrines of freedom and individual rights, etc, etc.
I theorise the effect would be compounded significantly if the 'other' was a completely different species, and that it would take a lot longer for the groundswell of public opinion to reach a level where it was viewed as morally wrong to treat them as inferior. By then who knows how much damage would be done.
That's assuming one species had a technological advantage at the time they met, if they were both equal like you say I could imagine an arms race developing that would make the cold war look like a kindergarten argument.
Then again, maybe humans have travelled a uniquely brutal path in our evolution and that's why none of them want to talk to us.
Why the sudden change? Exoplants have been verified to exist since the mid 90s.

That's an interesting scenario that could delay things to a point, but to continue with my pessimistic theory...
Eventually one or both species would evolve to the point where they can control their environment (as we have) and would be able to survive in each others' territory.
Even in our modern educated world we see how easy it is for the powers-that-be to promote fear and distrust of others with a slightly different skin tone or a slightly reworded holy book, imagine if the differences were as pronounced as a race of lizard people at the equator and a humanoid race at the poles. Major sustained conflict would seem inevitable.
And it would only take one of the species to be an aggressor before the other would be forced to engage them in self defence no matter how peace loving they were.
Maturity, and reading more into the subject

Imagine if there was a species just as intelligent as we are, but it has gills. We wouldn't be close to encroaching on their territory for a very long time.
We need to be careful when attributing human motivations to non-humans. We see differences creating fear... would aliens even experience fear in that way?

True, it's just a theory based on the only working model we have.
Though we see evidence in the animal kingdom that territorial disputes aren't a peculiarly human motivation.

That is true, but there is just as many animals who will fight among their own species and completely ignore others.
You could also have intelligence evolving simultaneously in both species in a predator/prey arms race. You could still have one aggressive side, but the other is equally matched defensively.
That's actually the main problem. There are hardly any credible and intelligent people 'who have seen and experienced contact of some kind' - none of them seem to have reasonable cameras, none of them seem to have the ability to take decent notes, none of them seem to have even a basic understanding of physics, or the ability to ask questions, and all of them seem to have imaginations rooted in 1950's sci-fi movies.
