5 out of 5 stars Bad Ass!   November 21, 2005
 0 out of 1 found this review helpful

By far the best action PC game I have ever played. This is even better than AVP 2!! Its scary and a bit difficult but well worth playing!! The only draw back is that you cant save at any place during the level. YOu die you start over. Its easier to play on a desk top than a notebook due to the keyboard. You like suspense,action, terror? This IS the game!! Its scary as hell and its just a lot of fun to play!!


4 out of 5 stars Aliens VS Predator VS Marines VS Win XP   July 25, 2004
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I must start out by stating that this is a HARD game (from beginning to end). The pure terror that the marine missions induce is matched by no other game that I have played. You will quickly find that is not the ordinary, run of the mill shooter. Other games have been touted as the thinking mans shooter, if that is so, then AVP is the chess master of shooters. As the marine you will often find yourself creeping along at painfully slow speeds only to anticipate whats around the next bend. Once you turn that corner and there's nothing there, you breath a sigh of relief, pause the game, use the bathroom, and continue on your journey. The Alien missions are extremely fast paced due to there wicked speed and ability to climb walls and to cling to ceilings. As the Predator, you'll wish you could stay cloaked the entire mission, just avoid encounters. The gameplay, visuals, and sound are straight from the Aliens & Predator movies, which, depending on whether or not you liked them, this could be a good thing.

There are, however, two downsides to this game. The first being that it is very frightening and difficult to master.

The second being that it has problems running on my Windows XP system. I am running an Athlon XP 3200+, 512mb DDR 400 RAM, a Radeon 9600 XT 256mb video card & Windows XP Professional SP1. I should be able to max out the resolution and still achieve over 100 FPS, but at 640x480 the frame rates are in the low 20's. When I first bought this game I ran it on an AMD K6/3 450mhz overclocked to 475mhz with a TNT2 Ultra 32mb & 384mb PC100 SDRAM. at 800x600 the game ran along nicely at 50fps with Windows 98 Second Edition. Call it bad luck or whatever, but my situation stinks.



4 out of 5 stars Classic Terror Game That Leaves You In A State Of Uneasiness   January 25, 2004
Made from the combination of the Sci-Fi classic movies "Aliens" and "Predator", this game combines a cinematic environment mixed with great suspense, terror, gore, and action. Journey into futuristic environments as one of three accessable characters in hope of accomplishing overall domination over the others and complete your given objectives to win the game. Be the acid spewing alien with grippling hands and super fast agility, the very mortal human colonal equiped with explosive guns and ammo, or the cloaking, stealthful, self healing predator. Each has its advantages and disadvantages over another and each with its different game play and control.

Isn't compatible with XP much and some downsides of the game, as with many, is the A.I. setting and not enough levels. The game is also considered for intermediate to pro first-person shooting pc gamers and will take much practice and patience, not to mention heart and a fast trigger finger to beat.

I would definetly recommend this game for 15 year olds and up even though its M rated. Try to play this game without a guide or cheat codes and use your head instead. Its worth it more when you actually win. Good luck and happy shopping and I hope this guide will help.
