With three entirely different character types to play as, the titular Aliens and Predators plus the space marines, it brings three entirely different strategies to the table. It is entirely recommended that you tackle their respective solo campaigns before you dive into the multiplayer, because the learning curve can be quite unforgiving. While the marines give you a fairly standardized FPS experience, the Predators and Aliens both introduce mechanics that are entirely unique and take some getting used to.
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.

I was really looking forward to this then mixed reviews have come in....
I think i might start ignoring reviews from now on and trust my OWN judgement, it seems that there are too many opinions flying around. In the good 'ol days (before tin-ter-net) i used to rely on one or two reviews (mean machines mag and cvg mag) and trust one of them.
With all these uberly mixed scores this means only one thing:
Some reviewers are lying about this game.
and these aren't like 9/10 to 7/10 range these are 8/10 to 2/10 stuff
so i guess the only way to find otu if its truly good to try it ur self
What s going on this gen with so many mixed reviews?! 3 pt swings are the norm now and this game has a 6 pt swing. I really hope people stop putting so much faith in reviews already. Gaming journalism took a big step back this gen. Actually more like multiple back flip twists with a pop and lock moonwalk at the end.
