Aliens Versus Predator Gold Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)until you get into it.When I first started playing, this game was so frustratingly impossible, but when you get used to it, it stops being impossible and starts being a challenge.This game definitely makeswonderful use of all the source materiel, giving us a wonderfulcinematic-feeling experience.Now you can sympathize with what all thosepeople were feeling in the Alien movies.
The Alien is probably thehardest to play as.Granted it moves really fast and can walk on walls,but no ranged weapons, and no medkit, leave you exceptionally vulnerable tothe marines' rapid fire weaponry.
The Marine levels are also extremelydifficult, because as soon as an alien gets under your arc of fire, you'regood as dead.Fortunately, you get a full range of fun weapons.
But theeasiest, if least fun, is the Predator.Exceptionally strong, withauto-aiming vision, sniper weapons, and auto-recharging ammo, this guy'slevels are, at first, a lot easier than the other two.
Each of thecharacters has his own, linear, campaign, but these campaignes have nothingto do with each other.The multiplayer's lots of fun, the sounds areexcellent, the graphics are high-res, and run well, even with all thefeatures on, on a low end system.Plus, it takes less than 300 megs of HDspace and it doesn't require the CD!The music, while not award-winningmateriel, is moody, and the predator music recognizably borrows materielfrom his movie theme, while the Marine and Alien music is similar to theAliens action themes.
The enemies aren't incredibly diverse, but they'retough and they look cool, so that doesn't matter too much.And don't worryabout the difficulty level...The gold edition comes with the strategyguide.Overall, this is a very fun and addictive, if very hard, game toadd to your collection.Recommended.

Aliens Versus Predator Extinction Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This game has an incredible foundation in place to build an even better game on.If it had spent another few months in the tank getting tweaks and having some more depth added to it, it could have been stunning.
The game that this mostly resembles is not Warcraft, but the seminal Command & Conquer series, though with these graphics, AI, unit choices and relative game play, only the earlier incarnations.I would have liked more unit types, higher caps, larger maps, a skirmish mode (campaign only?What's that?!) and maybe a tweak or two on the controls.The push-the-stick-and-circle-to-select-troops was suspect at best, and C&C already has a perfect way to do it: just make a square and capture the units you want to use, no guesswork.Even the original PS version can do that.
All in all, a good idea and not a wholly bad game, but I hope they take some cues from a franchise that does it right and come back to this.They're really on the verge of making a wholly good game here, just not with these flaws.Give us a "Part 2" to this and make these slight changes and you're gold.

Aliens Versus Predator 2 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This game is a vast improvement over the flawed original.For one, the graphics are much better, though not as good as some of the newer games out there.Still, they aren't bad and the atmosphere in the game is wonderful.Where the original felt more like a run-of-the mill shooter wherein the player mowed down hordes of Aliens (or humans, if you played as the Alien or Predator), this one still has you facing hordes of enemies but does a much better job of emulating the movies' creepy feel.As an example, the first level in the marine campaign has absolutely no enemies in it but it is, IMO, one of the best levels in the single player game.Though there are no foes, scripted events abound as you, cut off from your team, try to make your way back to them.As you go along you'll bump into a few survivors and, before you can do anything, see them slain by the Predator (with suitably tantalizing glimpses of the cloaked predator).You'll find evidence of the Aliens' and Predators' handiwork all around, 'something' will rattle through a duct nearby, things will break or otherwise go haywire in such a way as to make you jump.The atmosphere is pulled off quite well in the Predator and Alien campaigns as well, though they are not as creepy as the Marine campaign.
Beyond that, the encounters for each race seem fitting and all of the races are fairly well balanced.The Alien can't take a great deal of punishment but its fast and lethal if it gets in close quarters (and it can climb virtually any surface), the Marine isn't terribly durable either, but with his motion tracker and a devastating arsenal he can be a match for either of the other two races, the Predator is fairly tough and has some good weapons but not anything as purely destructive as some of the Marine weapons.The Alien campaign also has one particularly cool feature in that you start it as a facehugger, your goal then is to avoid the humans until you can find a suitably isolated host.Once thats done, you become the chestburster, the 'child' stage of the Alien, again you have to sneak around until you grow larger.Once that has happened you become a full grown Alien and the flesh-rending fun begins :-).
If I have any complaints its that the 'minimum requirements' for this game are a joke.As with most graphically intensive games, your RAM and the quality of your 3d card are more important.If you have a decent 3D card and 256 or more megs of RAM you should be okay, however, if you have only the 128 megs the box calls for, the game will stutter a lot even in the lower detail ranges. (...) That and you'll want to do a full install for maximum performance.The nearly one and a half gigs that the full install eats up can be painful if you have a small hard drive :-(.Though its a fun game at any detail level, being able to max the graphics out certainly helps :-).
To sum it up, this game is definitely worth the money and a good follow up to the original, though you'll want to have a fairly beefy computer to run it well.

Alien vs Predator Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've been playing this game since the demo and received the game today. I was pleasantly surprised on how they did things. It is easy to get the hand of things once you play it a while. The levels are kind of bland, but if you are like me and enjoy games offline and online then it's definitely worth it.

Pros-
-It's AVP! Its back!
-Fun system to choose whether or not you would like to be an alien, predator, or human.
-Unique idea for the most part
-Fun online multiplayer (this will keep you occupied and on edge the whole time)
-Easier learning gap then most FPS's.

Cons
-The graphics aren't as good as I was expecting, most FPS games have a bit better graphics but the graphics on this aren't bad don't get me wrong.
-The trophy kills are horrible in multiplayer, if you do one it's a big chance someone is right behind you to do one to you (similar to the chainsaw on gears of war)
-Some races need tweaked. (I felt that alien was the most powerful in all aspects of online play)
-There should be a better campaign, but I'm satisfied.

All in all it's a great game. I would definitely rent it to make sure you like it, or try the demo first. But if it's your thing hop in. Well worth the purchase for me.
