SEGA's Aliens vs. Predator Gets Interesting Launch Trailer
by Eric Bush
SEGA will publish an all-new Aliens vs. Predator (working title) game in early 2010. The game is currently in development with independent developer Rebellion, creators of the original 1999 Aliens versus Predator; a legendary title that went on to define an entire generation of multiplayer gaming.
From Our Official Review (click here): "The campaigns follow identical paths and locales seen from each species' perspective. But there is no overarching mystery or finally wrapped up loose ends, only laziness. Recycled boss battles and levels with a pittance of inhabitant variety would be immediately forgettable if not for the repetition. I think you run into five different enemy types total. Even though the treks through washed-out mines, barren jungles and lackluster temples are monotonous and the enemies within them repetitive, the campaign is saved by enjoyable combat, great audio and the first Marine stage. Far and away the best campaign, the Marine scenario begins as a "survivor horror," as told by Rebellion, that shifts to standard FPS as enemies with long-range weapons are introduced."
