This game really should be called Aliens Vs Predators Vs Marines, such is the three way battle for supremacy in this rather intriguing, but ultimately disappointing, first person shooter. Gamers get the chance to play as one of three classes, working through three very different single player campaigns in this slick, sci-fi infused battle for survival where the panicked radio chatter of marines is only further enhanced by the 'click click' sound the predator makes every time he performs a satisfying kill. And let us not forget the rapid wall running of a xenomorphic Alien before ripping the head from the spine of unsuspecting prey.
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.
