Alien is one of the best sci-fi thrillers ever made. Aliens, the first sequel to Alien, is perhaps more exciting and entertaining. But that is the row with praise on it. Predator 2 is failure in an urban jungle. Alien 3 is failure in a futuristic prison. Alien 4 is the resurrection of the failure. And the two series also attempts to link failed miserably. Aliens vs. Predator is failure to reach the South Pole vs. Aliens. Predator 2 is the funeral ritual of the end of the series, which has failed in an American town. The consoles also have the aliens and the predator made little stir at a proper PC game after nine years ago. The expectations for the next-gen version of Aliens vs. Predator is therefore anything but high."
In the first part of our series we took a look at the inception of horror games. Now we delve deeper and see how they evolved throughout the decades.
"Ever since Xbox One backward compatibility was announced, gamers have been asking for a few high-profile games. While the majority of requests revolve around the Call of Duty franchise, the Aliens and Sonic franchises have been other hot series. Today, Microsoft announced that Aliens vs. Predator, Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning, and Sonic Unleashed are now backward compatible."
Kingdoms of Amalur was brilliant. Never did get a sequel because all the crap that happened after with the IP.
It looks as though the 2010 first person shooter, Aliens vs Predator might become a Xbox Backwards Compatible title soon based on its revamped Xbox Store product page.
Been playing the shit out of it on PS3. Hopefully this gives the game another lease of life. Such an underrated game imho.
