Aliens vs. Predator

A game that's going to stoke the hearts of anyone who ever fell in love with the original films – which is likely anyone who's ever picked up a game pad.

AvP is a beautifully rendered game that will no doubt impress the diehard fans of the series and probably convince a few new friends to jump on board.

The series has been off the radar long enough to appear fresh and this is exactly how it feels, making it easy to recommend to anyone after a solid game based on the AVP franchise.

Aliens vs Predator is a very mixed bag. Whilst the single player is fun and a surprising change to what we'd expect, it just seems a bit lazy.

Ultimately, it lacks the action set pieces that helped to push the FPS genre to where it is today.

A lackluster effort compared to the previous two games, and I think a lot more polish and thought could have went into making it more fun to play.

The survivor mode is like the game itself in a microcosm. It's rote and uninspired, a desultory thoughtless collage of bits and pieces surgically removed from the movies and dropped lifelessly into a dated engine.

I have enjoyed this game. Yes, its not the most polished, the graphics are average. however, the sound is very atmospheric as you would expect with Alien type connections. the gameplay is different providing a different slant on the first person shooter. Playing and the predator and alien is a real gameplay stroke. it makes the gameplay refreshingly different abd a change from the current alternatives on the market. The alien is incredibly difficult to control properly, not because of awkward controls but due to the games and changes in orientation to move on walls and ceiling. It takes a while for you brain to truely be at ease in this format. the game play is frustrating, because death can occur very often, particularly on the marine missions. I await a further game, but with expanded campaigns and a bit more faith in the game to generate sales. I believe with the predator and alien name, they are on to a potential blockbuster game, great game, clearly undervalued by the expert critics. it has the X Factor in a game, could have been a truely great game with a bigger buget and a bit more faith. Graphics 7.5 - average but the alien movement is excellent, Predator visual excellent, Sound 9.5 - just like the film, great gameplay - 8.0, short but the gameplay varied and different, Which is a good thing, yes. I believe gameplay is hard, which may deter some game fans, presentation 7.0, could have had a afew more option, video etc online N/A - dont play online

66/100 as big fan of the movies/franchise, and reccomended on that basis. At the start when you are familiarising yourself with whats to come the atmosphere is tense, and the familiar sounds of the weapons, gadgets and space beasts are gonna put you as close to being in your favorite nightmare movie as possible, and there are some sweet touches that fans will love. Purely regarding gameplay I would drop this to maybe 56/100. Still fun to be had but lacks some depth and feels a bit clunky and rushed sometimes. A decent game in it's own right but due to the amount of seriously impressive games that exist out there it leaves you feeling a bit flat and never with that burn to get back to the game for more, despite the tasty flamethrower.

3 campaigns who are all quite enjoyable. Visuals are decent, story is decent, and the gameplay is good. If you are looking for a good singeplayer shooter, this may be for you. If you are looking for a good multiplayer shooter, this may also be yours. Multiplayer is pretty good and a lot of fun.

The human campaign isn't anything special, but the Predator and Xenomorph campaign's are fun and one of a kind. Challenging and interesting, this game definitely pleases me and sticks out of the crowd. Worth a go.

When it comes in entertainment AvP takes the absurdity of boring action, to the broken gameplay . I never thought that being a Predator could be so frustrating, the gameplay is broken and fractured . Don't even ask how the Alien part plays , it's just , bad. Meanwhile the Marine version could be a passable terror in the corridors , but after all thats good in short heigh . This game , turned off me in being a believer of the series .
