Have A Look At The Whole New AVP Videogame On Playstation

July 7th, 2010 | by Wiiabetes Guest Blogger |

The new AVP videogame is out after multiple poor attempts at Alien, Predator and AVP titles, begging the query have producers Rebellion at last created a game to satisfy the serious AVP fans?

The answer in brief is yes. Launched for Xbox 360, Playstation 3 and PC the new AVP videogame comprises three campaigns, allowing the user to control the hunter, survivor or prey. Beginning with the Colonial Marines missions, you begin as the rookie of the group on a small ship that witnesses a gigantic Predator vessel destroy your baseship. Of course the one choice out there is for your craft to dock on an undisclosed planet.
The Different Playthroughs And Aliens Offered Within The New AVP Videogame.

The following scene features your character coming to after being knocked out during the drop, and being instructed by Tequila (remarkably resembling Vasquez from Aliens) that this mission will grow to be a “bug hunt”. The subsequent few phases are only for the player to get to grips with the controls, which shall be familiar to most FPS gamers. Players will be fending off hordes of xenomorphs whilst waiting for an elevator to carry you to safety.

It’s throughout this gameplay users will notice how innovative the lighting of the latest AVP videogame is; was that a grate falling off? or was it a xenomorph on the ceiling? The answer is that you just won’t know until it could be too late! Lighting has been employed to genius effect in creating tense and uncertain gameplay. The weapons look and sound genuine to the Alien saga.

If the Marines mission is the closest to an FPS as attainable on this AVP videogame, then the Aliens campaign is the furthest away from that. The story opens with an Alien breeding laboratory with test subjects being harvested for their bioweapons research. But your Alien is different, as you decide to make your escape via your surrogate host’s throat, this signifies you’re a more intelligent breed of Alien. An energy failure provides you the ideal distraction to launch your escape. Mission objectives are given to you telepathically from the Alien Queen, and your Alien itself is a living weapon, armed with razor tipped tail. Alien play style promotes stealth and surprise attacks from the darkness, and it’s the most versatile of the combatants.

The Predator campaign is a mixture of the Marine and Alien campaigns. Being a Predator you rely heavily on your superior weaponry and use of stealth to eliminate your prey. The predator campaign on this AVP videogame is to locate and retrieve the bodies of numerous “youngbloods”; Predators that have gone missing. The Predator will be the most popular of the three campaigns in this AVP videogame, because of all its weaponry and utterly gruesome steath takedowns.

Overall, the new AVP videogame will satisfy the hardcore followers as it is still faithful to both the Alien and Predator films. The visuals could have been enhanced slightly yet the lighting and sound work far make up for any visual complaints. Combining these aspects with an excellent multiplayer mode has created one of the best AVP videogame to date.
