Ok for everybody who is on the fence about giving this game a try

I'm going to make such a case for this game that anyone who reads

this review will atleast have to give this game a try and I'm going to do this in 6 steps.#1 the graphics:the graphics for this

game aren't ground breaking but they don't need to be.this games graphics are just fine you don't need to have mind blowing graphics just to make a game a blast to play.#2 the gameplay:The gameplay is very good the only problem I had was when I had 60 or

70 aliens fighting around 110 K10 aliens and even then I didn't get to much slowdown,if you want to see some slowdown try army men air attack on Ps1.#3 the plot: the plots not like movie depth

where you get a background about the background,but it dosen't need one it's plot is just fine the way it is.#4 the controls:the

controls aren't to hard but they are a bit challenging but when you spend a couple of hours on this game,the controls are just like MOH:RS.#5 the characters:the characters in this game are stunning they are very,very well done they vary from each species

as they should and there are three technology levels,1 the aliens

:are the most primitive species of the group,they kill with their

arms,tongues,tails and blood.2 the colonial marines: they are in the middle of the group between primitive and advanced.3 the predators: the most technologicaly advanced of the three,they kill with searing plasma and super sharp blades.#6 the overall:

this game overall is a great game fun to play,try getting all the breeds in one group.well that's all I've got to say about this game.

In my opinion this is a very good stratagy game but with one flaw. I always play as an alien. What i dont get is if there are som many other enemy units in the game why you can not have more then 45 units. When you have 45 units the queen stops laying eggs. I mean what is with that, does the queen have some limit. i thought she wanted the hive to grow. how can that happen if you only have forty five aliens. i always end up with fifty or sixty hosts left over just sitting there fot the k-series aliens to steal. The graphics could also be better. They are a bit on the bland side. but other then that exellent game.

this game is fun. for the marines pretty good but not so much. good parts: the aliens are easy to kill even better in the guys with pulse rifles have gernade lanchers. the exo suit is best. bad: first the marines suck when battling predators otherwise thier good. predators are not my favs.they suck when battling humans otherwise thier good. aliens r my favs. the only bad parts are when u are out numbered other wise they are the best.

I am a big fan of the Alien movies, (...). I did
not play the two earlier M rated computer games, so I don't know if they are better. This one is cool because you can be aliens, predators, or humans(I don't think that should have been in the game because it's so point less). This can be hard at times but still very fun. Any fan of the movies would enjoy this game.

This game is very flawed, but is tons of fun if you can be patient with the AI. There are plenty of different types of soldiers, and the three races are very diverse. 21 Missions total will probably be around a week, unless you play all day. Later missions usually take about an hour. Buy it at a local store, like GameStop or EB, beat it within the 7 days, return it. Voila!

As a Predator fan, this game was highly disapointing. For one it was too short. It needed more missions and environments. For two in most games like this u are able to build some kind of a base and/or defense. The most u could do here was place a few mobile guns around. And that was only for the Preds and Marines. Third of all, it should not have been a strategy game, not for the PS2 console anyway. It should have been a third person game. Even if it was a first person it would have been somewhat more exciting. All in all I give it a 2 1/2 outa 5. And thats being generous.

First off, don't compare this game to warcraft. If you do, you will see the flaws & won't like it as much. This game is good. There are 3 different races. Aliens, Predators, & marines. They each have 10 units & upgradable weapons. Each race has positives & negatives. IE. You can create 45 aliens, but because aliens don't have ranged attacks they can get slaughtered every easily. Strength in numbers couldn't be a truer statement. The humans are good, but if you lose you commtech (leader & mechanic) you will fail the mission. You must also keep your medic alive so he can heal the troops. The predators are the most powerfull & have the best gadgets. But they are small in numbers. You can only have 4 at a time. Weapons include, pulse rifles, sniper rifles, rocket launchers, exosuits, hand guns, Flame throwers & sentry guns.. Ofcourse these are the weapons for the marines.. The predators have stealth laser attacks & depending on what type of predator you use other attacks. IE disk master, spear master.

The best part of the game is having face huggers impregnating people & predators. Yes predtors. The hybrid Alien/predator looks cool & has attributes of both races. The environments are bland & drab looking. Alot look the same no matter what mission you are on. The sad thing is there isn't any FMV & cut screens even when you complete all 7 missions with a race. Each mission has a target time limit. If you pass all 21 missions. You get cheats for the code. Medals are awarded after a player finishes a mission before the target time limit expires. The game is challenging. It takes strategy to win.. But what makes this game tougher is the dumb AI. Sometimes a few characters stray from the pack & get killed by oncoming Aliens or Predators. This [stinks]. I wish the creators spent more time creating a good AI. The sound is fantastic!! Every sound effect in the game is taken from the actually films. This really adds realism to the game. The average gamer might not like this game, especially if they are looking for a great RTS game. But hardcore AVP fans will love this game..

I loved this game. It did very well for a RTS on a console. One thing it needed was a skirmish or a multiplayer mode. Since it lacks these options, it's replay value ends after you beat the campaign. The campaign missions were quite challenging on hard. A good game, but you should probolly rent it before you buy it.

  • from Amazon

I thought that this game was great. it did need more missions and a multiplayer mode. But the game really needed to be on computer like most stragey games. over all the game was not worth that i spent 50 bucks. I should have waited for it to go down or read a review first. But it really should have been on computer. overall the price on amazon is what i should have paid but is anyone came out with a starship troopers game following this type of line i think it would be worth decent money.

This game has an incredible foundation in place to build an even better game on. If it had spent another few months in the tank getting tweaks and having some more depth added to it, it could have been stunning.

The game that this mostly resembles is not Warcraft, but the seminal Command & Conquer series, though with these graphics, AI, unit choices and relative game play, only the earlier incarnations. I would have liked more unit types, higher caps, larger maps, a skirmish mode (campaign only? What's that?!) and maybe a tweak or two on the controls. The push-the-stick-and-circle-to-select-troops was suspect at best, and C&C already has a perfect way to do it: just make a square and capture the units you want to use, no guesswork. Even the original PS version can do that.

All in all, a good idea and not a wholly bad game, but I hope they take some cues from a franchise that does it right and come back to this. They're really on the verge of making a wholly good game here, just not with these flaws. Give us a "Part 2" to this and make these slight changes and you're gold.

I bought this game expecting it to be so-so based on the amazon reviews, but found the game to be an outstanding treasure among PS2 games. This is one of the best computer/PS2 games I've ever played. Of course like all games it has its faults, like a lack of skirmish and online play. But overall fun game that will keep you entertained for hours. Definitely play as the aliens, they can be a little frustrating but fun to play.

Ok, let us get down to it. This is again another license game that takes what we come to know and love, expecting a game that delivers the true essence of aliens versus predator, and creates a game that is a cheap way of taking our money. Yes, I bought this game and now I regret ever handing the money over to the cashier.

Upon bringing the game home I played all three campaigns and spent three hours just telling a little person to walk and shoot. That is not an RTS!!! The game did not show any excitement or rush of innovation. Don't dive on this side of the game pool because it is on the shallow end.

I only played the first levels of predator and marine campaigns and soon was was put to sleep because I have A)played other RTS's similar or B)nothing to it.

The aliens was the only highlight to this game as it was interest to create your own hive but I was quick to find that it was nothing more than one level of fun. The rest of the levels reach a level of stupid and boring.

Rent this game only, unless you love any RTS or you can't get enough of the franchise.
