    Concentrates on totally accommodating casual players, at the expense of entertaining fans. [Jan 2008, p.122]
  2. Games Master UK

    In short bursts, it plays well but the stellar source material begs for a better tie-in, and the game's finale provides all the exctiement of a soggy firework. [Jan 2007, p.72]
  3. Play Magazine
    60
    The visuals are fairly nondescript, and while there's enough technical prowess to find acceptable on the PSP, the settings the designers decided to toss you into do little to excite. [Jan 2008, p.65]
  4. Playstation: The Official Magazine (US)
    60
    Again, it's not revolutionary but it's damned fun. [Feb 2008, p.87]
  5. Alien vs. Predator: Requiem is not a bad game, it’s just not the best game in the AvP universe.
  6. VideoGamer
    60
    Beyond the short-ish 15-mission single-player experience you have a very basic ad hoc two-player Skirmish multiplayer mode that doesn't really add much to the game.
  7. Maxi Consolas (Portugal)

    The abilities that offers the player, like the invisibility, vision mode and the Predator weapons, are well implemented in the control scheme of the PSP. But the levels are somewhat empty and all the action is extremely repetitive and boring. [Jan 2008]
  8. 55
    It's not going to challenge you, but it's not going to frustrate you too badly. It's not going to captivate you, but it's not going to repel you. If you want to run around cloaking yourself and destroying a bunch of easy-as-pie aliens, this is here. If not, this is still here. Do what you will with it.
  9. The last AvP game was released years ago and put forward a much stronger effort than this. The presentation is good, and at times, it had the makings of an honestly frightening game, but the difficulty level is scaled back so much that it ceases to be fun.
  10. A shallow and clumsy game that fails to make the most of the PSP and the AVP licence.
  11. 50
    AvP:R is an action game that fails spectacularly to doing anything exciting with a license built on the promise of exciting action. Instead it comes off feeling like a shell of a game waiting for someone to come along and add the ideas and fun.
  12. Edge Magazine
    50
    The game’s unique honour system (requiring you to tag and then kill enemies in exchange for upgrades) proves largely irrelevant, and in the heat of battle, toggling your firstperson view and wrestling with the analogue nub to track fast-moving targets proves frustrating and unwieldy. [Jan 2008, p.88]
  13. Aliens Vs Predator: Requiem is what we like to describe as a mild diversion. Certainly not worth your hard earned pennies it’s nevertheless a fairly competent movie tie-in that will entertain for about half an hour.
  14. Playstation Official Magazine UK
    50
    The whole enterprise smacks of a hopeless brief. [Jan 2008, p.103]
  15. 50
    A functional but unappealing cash-in.
  16. Nothing about this game is horrible, but nothing is really that awesome. Alien vs. Predator: Requiem is just a mediocre action title for the PSP.
  17. Now, with all that said, this game isn’t awful but, really isn’t worth playing and is extremely hard to recommend since there are much better handheld titles out on store shelves.
  18. Requiem isn't a particularly bad game, oh no; it's something quite worse: a patently mediocre game.
  19. Although Aliens vs Predator: Requiem is pretty straightforward, you’d probably enjoy it if you are just after a mindless shoot out.
  20. Aliens vs. Predator Requiem has a short lifespan; it's very repetitive and has a multiplayer mode that may as well have been left out. Far from having Predatory instincts, the game would die from hypothermia if left out for 20 minutes on a chilly September evening.
  21. This battle between invading extraterrestrials is hardly a fair fight. It's also not a very interesting one.
  22. A repetitive action game with very little substance and absolutely no style despite the fact that the Predator warrior is represented well in the game.
