    I never played the original AvP, so i didnt really know what to expect about it, but i decided to give it a shot. I was a little bit dissapointed with the campaign, because there was no real story to keep me attracted to it for long.

    The franchise name (AvP) and spot on feel for it is the only thing that saves this game from pure mediocrity. The marine campaign was repetitive, but fun (PLEASE, please play this game on HARD or nightmare, its so much more fun this way otherwise its just run and gun super easy) The Alien campaign was alright, but youll be playing this one just for the gore as the AI really just ruins The franchise name (AvP) and spot on feel for it is the only thing that saves this game from pure mediocrity.

Most people complain about the controls but If you are playing the PC version you will find them a whole lot better, but still kinda stiff (alien takes alot of getting used to). As for the Predator campaign, this is basically the same story as Alien, just not so easy and short. The aliens will be the only challenge here. Fortunately, its a little more interesting and story packed playing as the predator, not to mention that the trophy kills are cooler than the Alien's. Overall, its a disappoint game and only enjoyable if you like AvP.… Expand

    A lot of undue negativity surrounds this game, it isn't nearly as bad as some people love to make it sound. AVP isn't really an FPS.

That said, this game is very unpolished; it has a lot of technical issues and general lacks maps. This is a real shame, because it is this severe lack of polish that really prevents it from being the easy recommendation it should have been. Regardless, the game is fun on the PC. If you are a fan of the films Aliens, or Predator, you'll want to check this out. Otherwise, I think it is worth checking out after its 1st price drop.… Expand

    Okay, so it is certainly not the best game ever, but i sure had a lot of fun with both the campaigns and oline playing. I seriously don't understand why all the hate, the game really captures the suffocating atmosphere when playing as a marine, the thrill of the hunt when playing as a predator and the tension of stalking your prey as an alien.

It's just a downgrade from any angle (except from a technical standpoint), and what has remained is implemented in an inferior way. What a let down. Who would have thought the same developer that brought us such an amazing franchise 11 years ago would go ahead and defile it with this crap? Whether or not we'll ever see another commercial Aliens vs Predator game is now questionable.… Expand

    A unique FPS, there is more to this than just point and click to win with 1 shot kills. Which is probably why so many didn't like it. I also played through Bioshock 2 recently and found AVP3 more fun. The down side (like like bioshock2) is the annoying matchmaking system for multiplayer.

    I was looking forward to this game and I don't really play video games that much never mind waiting for a game to come out. So that being said, there are some points I am disappointed with.

So that being said, there are some points I am disappointed with. I have to say, in the Game Spot review is spot on how the game was through MOST (not all) of it's review. I wanted more Aliens atmosphere in the marine campaign and not half of it fighting androids. Plus with how far programming has come, you would expect to be fighting side by side with other marines like in Quake 4, Call of Duty games, and not being a programmed game of this is where AI players die. No crouching is a big deal as well being I wanted some fighting in the air ducts like in the end of Aliens. In the Predator campaign, unlike the previous 2 games, your energy for the shoulder canon does not recharge at all (except 2 scenes), you have to go find power cells to recharge it. Not to mention it isn't even powerful enough to consider using in the first place. The combi stick is cool but again, why didn't the developers make the shoulder cannon as powerful as this weapon and kept this one as a melee weapon like in the last one? Plus I don't like the fact that I have to collect a skull while my victim is alive, the predators didn't care in the movies nor in the last 2 games. Plus you would think they could add in an option of you skinning your victims the hang them from a ceiling (that would have been a huge plus) As far as the Alien goes, you just have to give it 5 minutes to get used to. I like how you can see enemies through walls now (BIG PLUS). I didn't like how slow it is to use the tail on an enemy. Trophy kill is cool, but if I am point blank and on target with the head, I should be able to just head bite. You would think with all the strides in programming that they would have an option where as the alien you could grab hide bodies like the aliens did in the movies. I just hope they come out with mod tools for this so people can create maps for more play (like adding more Aliens atmosphere levels with more access to the smart gun).… Expand

    While AvP manages to be a unique game in some ways ( such as the different styles of the 3 races you can play as ) , the game is let down in other areas.

    I liked this game, but I found out that there is no alien life cycle in it like AVP2. Massivley disappointing. It was so fun shooting those little bastards off the wall or being one and hunting down marines and predators. Looks like AVP2 is still our LAN game. Sure the campaign is alright. but MP is a letdown. I am very disappointed.

The marines have this useless jump mechanic, and you can't duck for some reason. Also your weapons are very unbalanced, the pulse rifle and flamethrower lack power and the pistol has unlimited ammunition and you should avoid using it all together. The Predators are quite functional and seem balanced although they suffer a similar problem to the aliens in that they have these long unskippable finishing moves (theres no standard attack), that are also in MULTIPLAYER. During these animations you can easily be killed by other players. Why would they include this in both single and multiplayer? Its horrid. Although the rest of the multiplayer is pretty good, stalking predators, hit and run aliens. Infestation mode. Having feel that again since AvP 2 is refreshing. But without innovation it won't bring in new players...

    Single Player 5/10
    Multiplayer 7/10

    The game suffers from new problems but also lacks ambition, it doesn't try anything new except adding on predator jumping (which feels a bit restrictive & you barely get a chance to use it after the first hour of gameplay). We get Pyramids and a bit of outdoors dusty plains, inside of base. Retreading old steps.    … Expand

    AVP is a FPS based on the well known cinema saga with the same name. Rebellion produces this new game, and imo they have caught most of the good aspects of the movies.

    The different campaigns are the most known aspect of the game, and since the game is from 2010, with a dead multiplayer it's the only thing I can judge. All campaigns are well built, despite the fact we always get the feeling that the Alien one is always going with the flow. All campaigns seem well connected, and if you play all at the same time the plot becomes a bitt better.

    Graphics are OK for a 2010 game, and with direct x 11 it's a kinda interesting game. Sound is very immersive, especially the Predator sounds.

    2- GAMEPLAY

    This game tries to gather some different mechanics, none of those in a specially good manner.

    If you play as a Marine you will have a more regular FPS experience. The game is kinda darkish, maybe to give some jumpscares, but it fails bigtime. I have not find noticeable bugs, but not being able to crouch is kinda odd. Weapons seem a bit weak, but in the other hand we can melee the Aliens with our hands...

    The base of the Predator's campaign is stealth, and being able to choose the proper resource of his arsenal. We only have access to the best weapons near the end of the game, and that's unfortunate. Also unfortunate the fact of the plasma custer intensive use of our energy. I love to see the red target forming, and I always choose other weapon just to save energy.

    Aliens have to use the shadows and their speed, but the controls are very confusing, with some learning curve to adapt to all the twists and turns that we will see. Try not to vomit... much. When we see the alien from the Marine or Predator's perspective their movements seem very elegant, and very well designed, it's a shame that those same movements do not feel the same when we are controlling them.

    We have some fatality moves. They are quite cool, but after we see all of them they became annoying, since we are exposed to other opponents when we are performing them, and they can take quite a while to finish.

    3- CONCLUSION

    AVP is now marked at 14,99€. Before you buy the game you have to keep in mind that this game does not excels in any aspect. Not a especially good FPS, not a remarkable stealth game, not impressive

    melee hunting game. So what to do? All the interesting environment around AVP game is well built, and if you are a fan of the series you will like this game. On top of that, the game is easy to find in any sale at a very cheap price. So this can be fun for everyone. Be sure to give it a go.    … Expand

Has 3 fairly short campaigns each about 3 hours long by playng a steady pace, they also reuse locations campagin to campaign which isnt that good, Marine campaign easil being the least interesting where you cant crouch or prone nor aim down sights to improve your accuracy.

Predator segment was also pretty cool, tho the auto jumping mechanic was kinda lame and just like with Alein it takes away some of the freedom of movement. One more good thing was how they approach the license and do justice to the Alien and Predator lore, both species were recreated, sound designed and animated really great. Only shame that marine pusle rifle felt so weak and underpowered.

    So much promise here that sadly isn't executed as well as it could have been. It's not a bad game. Just not a good one. The graphics are decent and in general the gameplay is solid. Melee is handled with a type of rock, paper, scissors system. When it's works it's a thing of beauty but it needs some refinement (and some added depth) to really shine. Hit detection seems iffy.

Melee is handled with a type of rock, paper, scissors system. When it's works it's a thing of beauty but it needs some refinement (and some added depth) to really shine. Hit detection seems iffy. The camera makes it difficult to track your opponent, and the actual combat can feel a little slow. Especially when playing the multiplayer. Way too many times was I locked in an intense melee battle with an opponent, only to have some joker come up behind me and execute me, ruining the tense skill based fight I was enjoying. Which brings me to one of my biggest grips with the game. The executions. Sneak up behind an opponent and you can engage a satisfying (and disgusting) execution. In single player these are lots of fun, but they don't translate well to the multiplayer mode. For one, the animations are painfully long. It's pretty much a guarantee that if you perform one, someone is gonna come up behind you and get you as soon as the animation finishes. It's not uncommon to see a "train" of 3-4 executions. It's silly. It's also an easy fix. Speed up the animation. But sadly no fix. Another sad thing about this game is the lack of any real modding community. Aliens: Colonial Marines has seen a number of fantastic gameplay tweaks that actually made it fun to play. AVP has seen little more than skins and lighting changes. The last thing that bothers me about this game is the inclusion of the AVP film universe in the story. Those films were terrible. Why they decided to include any influences of design or story into the game is beyond me. That and the dialogue is usually pretty cheesy and juvenile.

    There is fun to be had here. Despite my complaints about the melee system and the executions, I enjoyed my time with the multiplayer. I really wish the game had more support after launch. Perhaps they could have fixed some of these complaints. As it's stands Aliens vs Predator is an entertaining but flawed shooter with a boring story and repetitive level design. It's worth picking up for a play through but at this point I don't think you'll be able to find a multiplayer match and without multiplayer or mod support the games longevity is limited.

    I do hope Rebellion gets another crack at a sequel. With refinements to the gameplay, a better story and writing (THAT DOESN'T REFERENCE THE FILMS!!!) and more interesting level design they could have one of the best Alien/Predator games ever.    … Expand

    Avg. Time to beat: 8 hours, 30 minutes.
    Quickest Speedrun (all campaigns): 1 hours, 35 minutes.

    Retail Price: $14.99
    Lowest Historical Price on Steam: $1.49

    Quick Take: A 2010 refresh of Rebellion's original game from 1999, Aliens versus Predator offers a new and exciting action-packed installment. There is an individual campaign for each playable race: Aliens, Colonial Marines, and Predator. The Colonial Marine missions provide plenty of entertainment and excitement, but the fun falls flat once you get to the other campaigns. Graphics look fresh for being ten years old but beware of map fatigue as the designers reuse the same maps and layouts throughout the game. Awkward controls and clumsy surface transitioning hurt the Alien and Predator campaigns. Sound design and audio mix seem mostly great, however, a few voice-acted moments within the Marine audio diaries are quite amateurish. No online multiplayer matches to be found. It's a shame, but common for many games even only five years old.

    Pros:
    - Well-paced campaign. Doesn't slow down much and seems appropriately long.
    - Spectacular level and quality of gore. So violent it was banned in Australia.
    - Predator thermal vision is amazing looking to run around while flipped on. They really improved this in all the right ways.
    - A lot of action and great combat moments. Marine campaign feels very similar to modern DOOM releases.

    Cons:
    - Some really bad voice acting mixed in there. Some of the audio diaries sound like the voice actors were having a laugh. Tremendous overacting and too many "colorful" characters in the cast.
    - Singleplayer is too short. It could have been much longer per each campaign.
    - Marine weapons sound very weak, especially the pulse rifle.
    - Map re-usage is a drag and makes the game feel far too repetitive.
    - Albeit a minor complaint, the UI/Menu is really dated looking even for 2010.

    Concept: Similar to the original '99 release, the game pits Colonial Marines, Aliens, and Predators against each other in a cat-and-mouse deathmatch. Each playable race has their own campaign which intertwines with the others, all sharing an overarching narrative. Multiplayer consists of various competitive or co-op game modes. Unfortunately online multiplayer is dead. Also, don't go in expecting a quality story. It's pretty average and even notably campy in parts.

    Graphics: Once again comparing it to the '99 original; the improvement in graphics, AI, and atmospheric particle effects like laser beams and smoke/fog make for a more involved and exciting experience. By 2020 standards it's of course dated, but still holds its own and works well enough. Lighting, wind blowing leaves and branches, fog, clouds, light rays, waterfalls, and general atmosphere look great. I don't like the menu UI. I think it feels dated. More like 2005-2007 than 2010.

    Sound: Very mixed quality and a mixed bag overall. Too much of the voice acting is either over-acted, very cliche. or just bad. Some voice acting seems good and totally appropriate, while others are practically caricatures or living memes. NPC marines will constantly shout "DON'T RELAX YET MARINES" along with other canned statements making for both an incredibly annoying and hilarious experience. Many weapons sound weak, especially the pulse rifle. The ambient audio, especially in the jungle, sounds very layered and helps with immersion.

    Gameplay: Gameplay is mostly fun - rather you play as a marine launching a bulletstorm assault against your foes or even if the bullets are coming from the marines while you play as an Alien or Predator. The marine campaign plays very similar to the modern DOOM games, or even somewhat like the first modern Shadow Warrior game. Don't expect much scares apart from the occasion jump. The vibes overall pale in comparison to say Alien: Isolation. The Predator has far more big combat moments than either of the other two campaigns. The controls alone have left me substantially disappointed. Re-mapping the keys was hugely helpful in making things feel way less awkward. It was still clunky and unnatural feeling. Appropriate amount of cut-scenes.

    Entertainment: Certainly more fun than I had with Aliens Versus Predator from 1999. Don't play expecting any terrifying or horrific emotions. It's not particularly scary outside of a few jump scares. Even those are pretty predictable. Nonetheless, it makes for a fun romp around shooting things as a Colonial Marine. Really, really enjoyed that campaign. Unfortunately, the others did not provide the same entertainment, although they arguably had some of the better boss fights. I found the Colonial Marine campaign to be a lot of fun and left me wanting more. The Predator and Alien campaigns left me hoping they would end sooner.    … Expand

    It's rare that the characters we control don't fight for good from our point of view. No softening has been made in the harsh attitudes of the characters. Each race is mirrored as it should be. This impressed me the most. Then I thought, the way we evaluate "good" might be selfish, right? Ultimately, the action of each race leads to good for its own race and evil for other races.

Ultimately, the action of each race leads to good for its own race and evil for other races. So what is not good for us is directly bad? The race that wanted to brutally partition off your or the alien's head from its body didn't want to do it for their "race"? I guess if we compare points of view, there will be no good or bad. What matters, then, is how much each person can fight for his own truth. Note this wine, chief, I like it. Can I try the next wine?… Expand

    Everybody didn't like Colonial-Marines'13... But WTF are these ratings in 2010, people? These 4 hours of sjw-console garbage are almost unplayable! I can't believe the same dev.team committed this reboot.

    A slightly controversial reboot of the series, but nonetheless worthy of attention.
    Technically, the game has received significant improvements, although the graphic style sometimes looks dirty and lacks clarity. The gameplay is more dynamic, but sometimes it feels chaotic. Melee fights with blocks and counterattacks are somewhat awkward. Added the ability to finish off the opponent,    A slightly controversial reboot of the series, but nonetheless worthy of attention.
    Technically, the game has received significant improvements, although the graphic style sometimes looks dirty and lacks clarity. The gameplay is more dynamic, but sometimes it feels chaotic. Melee fights with blocks and counterattacks are somewhat awkward. Added the ability to finish off the opponent, which can be both an advantage and a disadvantage. The music has some good themes, but most of them are not particularly memorable.
    The story campaign does not bring anything new. The same three campaigns of Alien, Predator, and Marine. Only from the campaign for the Alien, which is already too short, the lifecycle from facehugger to Drone was cut. But they added the ability to hide in holes and attach facehugger to their victims. Also, for some unknown reason, they added the ability to collect jars of slime.
    Some vision modes and alternative weapons have been removed from the Predator. But they added some new stuff like voice bait and mine. In this game, the Predator feels more like prey than a hunter. Although the campaign for him looks pretentious, as well as the very appearance of the hero. Often there are not enough moments where you instill fear in ordinary frightened people, such as unarmed scientists, etc.
    The Marine campaign is somewhat similar to the previous parts, but not as exciting, intense, and dynamic. There are some interesting plot moments and locations, such as a strip bar with Aliens and a holographic dancer. But in general, it turned out to be too ordinary.
    In the end, the game turned out to be not bad, but too weak for a reboot of the franchise.    … Expand

    Поделка с хорошим стилем и атмосферой.

    В игре можно найти интересные находки в плане визуала и геймплея, но в остальном эта игра как будто бы наспех склеенные куски уровней в три удобоваримые кампании.
    Первая кампания за человека - от всех прочих "тиров" выделяется своими врагами, а именно чужими. Которые не только перемещаются в одной плоскости, но и умудряются извиваться на стенах и потолках. Да и как хоррор неплохо работает, по большей части заслуга хорошего звука/музыки.
    Вторую кампанию решил проходить за хищника. Углубились в изучение конфликта Хищника и Чужого, но максимально поверхностно. В отличии у простого человека в геймплейном арсенале у нас есть большие прыжки, гаджеты и крутые добивания. К сожалению, геймплей за хищника показался мне показался каким-то очень топорным.
    Третья и последняя за Чужого - ну это по большей части чистый фан. Геймплей быстрый, жук этот лазает везде, красивые добивания как у хищника присутствуют и всё это не топорно, в отличии от хищника.
    Было бы ещё хорошо, что бы это ещё было завёрнуто в качественную историю, но её тут нет. Левел-дизай намкимально блеклый и бедный. Особенно это видно на просторных локациях (по большей части за хищника видна эта халтура). Сюжет же говорит А, а про Б забывает. Сделан, как я говорил выше, что бы хоть как то связать локации между собой и те самые три кампании.
    Рекомендуется только уж сильно заядлым фанатам этих персонажей.

    The game has 3 different campaigns which look amazing and are very fun, but after that there is no replayablitiy or multiplayer features. The game did age well and is still enjoyable to play once if you haven't yet

    A good campaign, the marine one, and some variety in gameplay mechanics provide a quite fun experience. Unfortunately some ideas lack polish and the other two-thirds of the single player are just not as good as they were supposed to be.

    Aliens Vs Predator is a standard First Person Shooter, but thanks to the Predator's and Xenomorph's campaigns, it entertains old and new players. Even the multiplayer mode is funny and well structured, but the graphics engine is not that good.

    The controls for Predators and Xenomorphs may be a bit tricky and the AI sometimes doesn't show any "Intelligence" at all, but nevertheless: AvP is a most-have for fans of the movies, as well as the games - especially if you're into absolute multiplayer-mayhem and dont mind "some" gore.
