Games On Net Preview: Alien vs Predator Multiplayer

Games On Net writes: "Alien or Predator? Alien... or Predator? Marine? No, definitely Predator. The hardest thing about setting up a match of Rebellion's Alien vs Predator is choosing which of the three races you're more inclined to play. You might even swear allegiance to one race, vowing never to abandon the Xenomorphs – but then you'd miss the greatest thing about AvP, variety."

I played AVP 1 and 2 on the PC back in the day. If rebellion held true to the franchise as they stated they have. Then AVP truly will be a unique experience.

I hope the ability to become a queen is intact. After so many kills as an alien. The game flashes a queen is born. All hell breaks lose. She has a one hit kill and is pretty fast but to big to go through most doors. I have seen people online no matter which side (marine or predator) they are fighting on trying to bring one queen down.

I am inclined to play a predator. But on a pc the level of micro managing of vision modes and energy levels has a moderate/high learning curve that may deter people from them. But there is nothing like having the ability to appear and disappear at will. Especially in Predator vs. Marine combat. Aliens can see the pheromones which look like an aura around invisible predators. There is no hiding from them.

His smiling face makes me want to punch it. For shipping unfinished, bland, and shallow games he should get the absolute opposite of an award.

I was so mad when I bought AVP and it wasn't good. I really liked the demo of Sinper Elite V2 though.
