From the review:
"Aliens vs Predator is essentially the third game in the AvP series started by Rebellion back in 1999. The original game was truly groundbreaking and Rebellion managed to fuse three distinct types of gameplay into one fantastic game. The first sequel was handled by Monolith productions and while it had a more closely integrated storyline and was generally very good, it fell slightly short of the quality shown by its predecessor.
Hopes were high, then, for Rebellion’s return to the series with Aliens vs Predator on PS3, PC and Xbox 360..."
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.
