User Rating: 9 | Aliens Versus Predator 2 PC
For anyone who's a fan of either the Alien or Predator movies, this is a must buy. For anyone else, it might just make you a fan. Graphics and sound are solid especially for when it was released, but I got to say that the real gem here is the gameplay and story. You can play as either an alien, predator or a human marine, and you really get the feeling of what it is like to be in each of their shoes. Play as the alien, and you'll be quickly sneaking from shadow to shadow and up walls and then charging headlong into danger to maul your opponents. Play as the predator, and you'll be turning invisible and destroying your opponents with a good supply of hightech weapons and feeling almost invincible. Play as the marine, and you'll be afraid of the shadows and wetting yourself at almost every sound. Plus you get to go through the entire life cycle of an alien: from hatching as a facehugger, to targeting and attaching yourself to a solitary victim, to bursting through his chest, to eating small animals and avoiding detection as a chestburster, to finally becoming a full-fledged alien and chewing on some human heads. Another plus is the way that the three stories as each of the characters come together to tell a bigger story of why all hell is breaking lose on this planet. Overall, I’d say that this game is fun for everyone, but a real blast for a fan of the movies.
