Alien Vs. Predator2.... I remember this game.

I spent alot of my time with this one. Alot of time, family camping trips with my laptop, and many collage final nights playing this instead of cramming for my English finals.

This game is alot of fun, there is nothing much as gratifying being an Alien, and blasting some poor maries head away with a head bite attack. *Blammo!

This game is a slight improvment over the orginal, (which I think is a little bit better).

The music is still as good as the orignal, while there are some songs that are cheaper imitations of the orignal score.  The graphic are lacking, while their has  been some tweaking with the alien's coloring, and the predators skins, It still needed more definate touch ups.

The controls are what I like. It takes some time to get perfected, but if your good at this game, really good, you can select a race, and map out all the major key functions to rock at this game. This ties into muilplayering as well.

if you are able to play this game online, be warned.... People are good. Really good, like uber-deaus good. This game has been out for a while, and most of the players have moved on, the core players are still around, on their own servers, and they own this game.

Thats where this game shines, is in muliplayer mode. If you read the game manual, it spends more time explaining the muiltplayer modes than the actual gameplay.

If you can spend the time it takes to learn the controls and deal with the experienced on-line players, this game can be a welcomed diversion from the daily chores of life.
