Aaron embarks on just another bug hunt with Rebellions latest take on Aliens Vs Predator… Having a big name on your games box is tantamount to printing money these days.
However, even if the visuals dont rock your boat, the audio direction most definitely will.
This is a gimmick thats used brilliantly, too.
It gets closer… and closer, but still, you see nothing.
Theyre not bad, by any means, but you cant help feel they needed to be better.
The latter of these abilities is whereAvPstarts to unravel a little.
The melee combat, while passable, is also a bit stale and unwieldy.
Close up, fatality-style kills are always a laugh, though.
That is, when you might manoeuvre into just the right spot to pull them off.
The Predator is one of the most tragic characters of gaming, in my opinion.
As the Predator, you have access to all of the staple weapons of the hunter-killer species.
And, the Predator can also jump massive distances, able to find vantage points to ambush foes.
Another interesting ability is the distraction skill.
By selecting a point in the area, you might project a want some candy?
vocal queue, causing your target to walk over to investigate, thus leaving them wide open to attack.
Sadly, the major problem with both the Alien and Predator campaigns is the size.
As well as the single player story elementAvPalso has a couple of multiplayer tricks up its sleeve.
The final mode is Survival, and this is where mostAvPplayers will spend a lot of time.
