Summary
Cinema/video/DVD sci-fi horrors the Aliens go head to head with the Predator in this first person shoot-em-up. Now it’s your turn to decide who gets to win the battle. This is Aliens vs. Predator.
This title gives you the opportunity to take on the roles of the Marine, the Alien, and yes, the Predator. Essentially Aliens Vs. Predator is three games in one. Depending on which character you choose to play, you will be given an entirely different scenario as well as having different opponents. Choose either Alien or Predator and you will battle it out against mankind. Choose the Marine and the situation is reversed. Each of the three playable characters have their own unique attributes, just as they have on the big/small screen. Aliens can walk on walls, which can be very confusing: Predator has thermal vision, and Marines have, well, guns. You can also choose a skirmish option, which is a simple shooting fun-fest with no strings attached.
The other, and perhaps more appealing side of Aliens vs. Predator, is the multiplayer option. Provided you have Internet access, you can join in multiplayer frenzy against the most adaptive opponents in the world - human beings. There are a lot of options here, making Aliens vs. Predator an accessible title for as wide an audience as possible, providing you are of a suitable age, of course.
