General Information:
In the all-new Aliens vs. Predator players will have the chance to take the role of the three infamous species; the Colonial Marine, the Predator and the Alien. Each of the three species has its very own distinct story-driven single-player campaign mode that interweaves with the campaigns of the other two species. Aliens vs. Predator will also feature unique 3-way online multiplayer, allowing gamers to pit the three species against each other in the ultimate battle for survival and for the right to be crowned the deadliest species.

On planet BG-386 a colonist mining group discovers an ancient pyramid containing a dark and horrible secret. Across the stars a race of warriors is alerted to the discovery of their pyramid and a hunting party is dispatched to ensure that it remains sealed at all costs, whilst deep inside the ruined pyramid a malevolent intelligence awakes from centuries of dormancy.

Unless you have a computer that is the turds, you wont be able to play anything over than the Marine, and maybe the predator...I just played it now, and the Alien is so underpowered, and everytime I cling to a wall and start crawling all over it my stomach lurchs and I get confused so fast...by which time the Predator has pulled one of about....five? of his supreme Xenomorph hunting weapons and sliced me in half, cut my head off and used it as a shield.

I honestly do think it'd be a really good game if they sorted out the balance issues, Aliens are also great if y'know how to play...Its one of those games where you have to know your class (Race in this case), and I bet there'll be Marines that can take down two preds whens its released..basically.

Marine: Your FPS class.
Alien: Those who like the Thief games, Stealth is here but aswell as hyper running clawing at yer' enemies balls combat aswell.
Predator: This class is sooooo easy to play, and I bet there'll be true masters of the Alien and Marine classes that they'll just be pwned everytime aswell.

The SP will be great, but the MP...that Map is SUITED for Aliens, how the hell will they survive in a different map? Meh...I'd probably buy this for the PS3, like Jackal said I think its just one of those games that'd work better with the PS3, not just for controls but for the graphics to.

My recc is that if you want to play an AVP game, play an older one...until the single player for the new one comes out ofcourse, and yes it does look like a bunch'a retarded lego bricks, but so does Deus Ex and that was great to.

Oh yeah and Silver, can we bring back HGN AVP RP Plox, that was going so well and with these new models that you could get from the new game it'd look da
bomb aswell.


The above is also highlighted so you read it =D

The majority of big games now are suited for damn consoles, thats the problem.

Post by: Silver Knight on 09-02-2010
It's a good game, but as a critic, i have a few things which need to be added, i understand it's fast paced, but these are small things which can easily make all the worth.

I feel that the marine should be able to crouch, it's natural, that a marine would want to duck down in a corner to avoid something, or jump. I feel it's kinda of a step back in some ways with the marine, as it feels like counter strike, being unable to aim your weapon.

My ownly complaint about the alien is not being able to use your inner mouth as a weapon like in the orginal AVP games, i enjoyed biting into the heads of my foes at my own will, but now it's just some linear trothy kill, which is somewhat satisfying but i want abit of freedom with what i can do.

Predator is a fun race to play, the weaponry is truely amazing, i don't really have anything to complain about with them, they are perfect.

On the general side, i really hope they add in the facehugger as a playable class, i mean, it's nice playing as a drone, but i would be highly interesting as playing as a facehugger. Although i see the point of, once attached to the face of a opponent, it won't come off, but i suppose i really hope it's in the "Infestation gamemode"

Honestly, I see a bunch of people saying they don't like the game and the first thought that comes to mind, "You suck?". The game itself is fine in my opinion, all classes are balanced. Even though I'm not good at Marines, I see others winning matches as them. Predators don't ALWAYS win. They're required to wait for prey to some degree as aliens just rush. That's why if an alien or marine is getting fed by people who suck i.e. the general populace that say the game is crap, the predator has a tough time winning.
