    This is one of the poorest expansion packs for any game in recent memory. It’s so bad, in fact, that I want my money back.

    Middling level design along with an over-reliance on mobbing the player with nearly impossible situations make Hunt a disappointing release.

    Offering no new gameplay styles, limited map enhancements, and unorthodox NPC AI, Aliens vs Predator 2: Primal Hunt seems to be just that, a primal update to an excellent storyline driven series.

    Primal Hunt is a collection of annoying "Quickload" moments resulting in a thoroughly annoying game. [Nov 2002, p.84]

    First off the Solo Missions, suck. There is no suspense like in the first, and just jumps into BORING action.

The storyline reveals even more of an already interesting and fascinating story of the game. Only this time, we'll find out what happened long before the events in the main game.
    This time we have three new characters. Ancient Predator has even more new weapons, but they are mostly useless. Dunya is a member of a group of mercenaries called the Iron Bears, who are the bad guys in the main game's story. She also has new weapons available in addition to what was in the main game. The game also provides a unique opportunity to take on the role of Predalien - a monstrous hybrid of an Alien and a Predator with its own advantages and disadvantages.
    New game locations are now available for us to explore. The gameplay is sometimes too long and consists of confronting huge waves of Aliens. It's often a good idea to just ignore the enemies and run headlong from point A to point B. But overall, the expansion turned out to be good and quite interesting.    … Full Review »
