"The Aliens vs. Predator demo came out last week may have heard developers talk about their "Rock, Paper, Scissors" mechanic. What does that mean? Does it mean that marine beats alien, alien beats predator, predator beats marine? Not in the slightest. If you have played the demo you've probably seen that the number of each race is limited, such as having only two predators allowed (which may indicate that the predators are overpowered). Let me tell you that this simply is not the case. From what I've seen so far, Rebellion has done a great job at balancing the three races."
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.
