However, the United States Marine Corps are humanity’s last line of defence, and as such they are armed to the teeth with the very latest in high explosive and automatic weaponry.
- As the Predator, you will stalk from the shadows and from above, passing athletically through the treetops to ambush your victims. Although equipped with an array of powerful, exotic weapons and tracking equipment, honour ultimately dictates that you must get in close and take your trophies face to face.
- As the most deadly species in the universe, the Alien offers you the chance to play as the very stuff of nightmares – the monster in the dark swarming forward with countless others, jaws like a steel trap and claws like blades.
- Play all sides off against each other in a series of unique 3-way online modes and go tooth-to-claw-to-pulse rifle in the reinvention of one of multiplayer gaming’s defining moments.
- Bringing the legendary war between two of science-fiction’s most popular characters to FPS fans, AvP delivers three outstanding single player campaigns and provides untold hours of unique 3-way multiplayer gaming.

If you liked the first AVP that came out back in the day then your in for a treat. I picked up this game not knowing what to expect. I just finished the marine campaign, which has a dead space feel, and then the Alien campaign which was loads of fun. Where this game really shines is in the Predator campaign, which so far is fantastic. Stealth, lots of cool weapons and a completly redesigned control system from the first give the Predator campaign an awesome feel.
Great game, awesome fun. Don’t believe the negative fuss in IGN and Gamespot who for the most part wouldn’t know a good game if it hit them in the face.
Rating: 5 / 5
This game is sweet. If you are a fan of either of the series this game is worth the money. The Marine Campaign is intense. Play it in the dark and you will see how freaky it can be. The game is definately not for younger kids as there is a bit of cursing (F-bombs here and there). This is expected since it is based upon the two franchises. Wonderful script and plays out like a movie. Simply awesome.

I totally fell in love with this game. I have been a predator fan since I was a little boy, and this game really fasciantes you if you liked the Predator character!
I have finished the campaigns of The Predator and the Marine. I skipped the Alien campaign because I don’t like the Alien character much.
The gameplay is so great! The graphics are breaktaking. I just don’t know what the heck was going on in the heads of those pro reviers who crushed this game! I mean one pro reviewer gave this game 5.5/10 (Mediocre) rating!! This game is awsome, it should have received at least an 8.5/10
The only thing I didn’t like much is that you are fighting the aliens most of the time, wther as a Predator or as a Marine. When playing as a Marine, I only faced the Predator once, and kinda of killed him easily. It would have been nice if you would fight several predators at several stages of the game.
Rating: 5 / 5
I was really excited when i heard this game was coming out it looked amd sounded awesome and for the most part it is all together awesome, but there are some flaws that just didn’t make it a 5 star game.
There are 3 campaigns to play one for each species:
Marine campaign: at first it is great how your in suspense waiting for the alien to pop out of the shadows, but after a couple of encounters it gets pretty predictable and worse when you get surrounded by a gang of them like 3-or 4 your fighting off one in front of you while taking damage from the other sides (behind you) which gets hectic and annoying fast, no matter how good you play you will get hit alot you can run away and get space to shoot them but you will still get hit when running. Also the campaign is based around darkness you have a flashlight and some flares and basically try and survive the alien attacks in semi-darkness which is all it is about surviving, but it is still fun. You only fight the predator once in marine campaign. You can’t do any insta/ trophy kills as a human, just push them/melee them off you and shoot them on the ground. Also the flares would be better if they say blinded or burned the aliens or made them get away (which they don’t) all they do is temporarily give off light so you can see where to shoot, almost not worth throwing them since you will probably get hit upclose while you do it. Also the enemies are repetitive at points and not alot of variance alot of aliens,a couple of bigger aliens near end, android guards, 1 predator and facehuggers plus 2 or so mediocre boss fights. The storyline is so so nothing special.
Overall marine campaign: 7.5 out of 10
Alien campaign: At first seems really cool can climb on walls and run really fast but it is really short compared to the marine and predator campaigns seems almost like a unlockable mini game or something. Controlling the alien can be really hard and frustrating at times jumping on walls the camera flips upside down and turns sideways which will easily disorientate and confuse you add to this your navigation system is an arrow that does a lousy job, you will spend most of the time lost until you stumble on the vent or way you have to go to proceed to the next area, you only face 3 enemy types marines, android guards and the predators, you can also harvest unarmed civilians with facehuggers. The cutscenes do look nice though and the fight with the 3 predators as the alien is really awesome and the aliens ending and storyline is pretty cool.
Overall Alien campaign: 6.3 out of 10
Predator campaign: (am only halfway through) The only thing here is that it is too easy, i feel that the predator is the superior species easily it can dispatch both humans and aliens pretty easily with all its weapons and invincibility ect. But is the most fun to play as.
Predator campaign: Overall 8.9
Also The melee mechanics ( alien boxing sorta) block, light, heavy attacks could have gotten more work alot more improvement adding combos special moves and better animations would have been much better. Sometimes the graphics and animations seem outdated at times but pretty awesome in others(cutscenes) which looks like some scenes got the most attention while others weren.t rendered as nicely. marines feet would go through stairs while the throphy kills of the alien and predator are pretty awesome looking ( spent most time on probably).
Multiplayer can be pretty fun at times but i don’t see it lasting long the 7 modes can only keep a persons interest so long then theres not much more to play for exept different ranks and skins which dont give anything extra skill wise just cosmetically which i wouldn;t keep playing it for. Playing as the predator seems to be an unfair advantage online though.
Rent it for a couple of days beat it play some multiplayer matches for fun then return it would be a good way to go with this game.

I downloaded the demo on the playstation network, and it only had a on-line mode. The online was pretty fun, and got me excited, because this would be the first Aliens game I’ve played. I was disappointed there wasn’t a single player mode, and wasn’t sure if it would have one. Well, I got this game and WOW. They do have a single player mode. You get to pick from the Humans, Aliens, or Predator. I choose the Humans first, just to get the mood going, and let’s say I haven’t jumped up and screamed like this since the first Resident Evil. I can’t stop playing it. The only reason I stopped was I need sleep. I can’t comment on the Aliens or Predator section, since I haven’t played it, but I know from the quality of this section, the others will be awesome. The story so far has parts and bits from the Aliens movies, and you just feel like your IN THE MOVIE. So far the story is great, I don’t know what some other reviewer was talking about. The story keeps you going, and you have objectives that are very easy to follow. The pace is great so far. Also, there are check points which are in the best spots, because will die, and love it! You just keep going back for more. If you have any doubts, or think this is going to be bad like some people think the movie was, don’t worry. This is a great game.
