  1. As it stands now, you'd probably have more fun being on To Catch a Predator than playing Aliens Vs. Predator.

    The survivor mode is like the game itself in a microcosm. It's rote and uninspired, a desultory thoughtless collage of bits and pieces surgically removed from the movies and dropped lifelessly into a dated engine.

    Aliens vs. Predator is a game full of guts, gore, horror and (face)hugs.

Featuring the ability to play as a marine, predator or alien in the separate stories makes for a 3 stories, which when put together make a lenghty camaign with 3 very different styles of gameplay. Marine survival horror, alien stealth, and predator's "kill everything" gameplay. All of them are very different gameplay and different armories but all them share the same problem: being very fiddly. Predtor's weapons are irritating to acces, complete simple tasks like jumping on to buildings require you to hold buttons while clicking others. Alien wall climbing is irritating, much like the clunkyness of playing as a marine. Graphics wise it misses a lot of chances to impress, avoiding most of the best places from the films. Multiplayer is good, featuring a variety of game modes on ejoyable maps, however teams are easlily unblanced and can have you gritting your teeth in anger. There are those times that get you smiling aswell, like getting one of variety of grapple moves, which can often end in a long line of people killing each other, like a massacre at a konga party.

    Overall an enjoyable games that both angers and wows, offering lots of variety in singleplayer.

Playing as human you get to kill both xenomorph and predators in one of the most tense campaigns ever, never mind the scenery you won't have time to look at it but having said that I found the graphics to be very decent. Playing as xenomorph you get to plunge your teeth into the skulls of hapless humans which is very entertaining, alien controls are... Alien, I mean what did people expect? Once the controls are mastered the action is fun and entertaining, travelling upside down is a breeze and transition is seamless, sorry haters you guys just don't know how to play the game, so if you find new controls difficult, stick to what you know best which is practically zip. Playing as predator is especially fun, ripping out the spines of your victims and using their heads to access locks, oh the fun, in fact the only thing missing here is an Earth level with Arnie in it. Unfortunately game designers can't please everybody but if you buy this from the bargain table for a song you won't be disappointed at all. With any luck the sequel or prequel will be even better.
