Nick from Lazygamer has been having some hands on time with the upcoming Aliens vs Predator and has posted his thoughts on the three single player campaigns and the game in general.
Nick - "As with all of the Aliens vs Predator games, the game is split into three separate campaigns: Marine, Alien and Predator.
Fans of the franchise will already know how this works and everything will feel instantly familiar. Each different campaign is vastly different from the other, with the Marine playing like a first person survival horror/shooter, the Alien as a melee/stealth game and the Predator as a high-tech mix between the two."
In the first part of our series we took a look at the inception of horror games. Now we delve deeper and see how they evolved throughout the decades.
"Ever since Xbox One backward compatibility was announced, gamers have been asking for a few high-profile games. While the majority of requests revolve around the Call of Duty franchise, the Aliens and Sonic franchises have been other hot series. Today, Microsoft announced that Aliens vs. Predator, Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning, and Sonic Unleashed are now backward compatible."
Kingdoms of Amalur was brilliant. Never did get a sequel because all the crap that happened after with the IP.
It looks as though the 2010 first person shooter, Aliens vs Predator might become a Xbox Backwards Compatible title soon based on its revamped Xbox Store product page.
Been playing the shit out of it on PS3. Hopefully this gives the game another lease of life. Such an underrated game imho.
Less than a month to go.
Please be good, please be good, please be good.
