      we only have avp gold, avp2, the arcade games, concrete jungle, and extinction
      they havent made any other avp games since then

      I never played this game since they did the patch, but when those aliens showed up they were legit the only thing that actually worked in the game and they swarmed me and came directly up to my face and kind of trapped me there and I was really high and I couldnt even move because they were stuck cause of the stupid broken ai and it was kinda scary in that I was literally trapped as I was so high being unable to do anything while my brain was looping itself,which made me super uncomfortable.

      why can't you fricking answer the question you colossal moron, just tell me "it's not on steam because of licensing issues"

      from what I remember its like multi-licensed to hell
      I think even disney owns avp or some part of the avp universe circa like 6 months ago or so
      they are probably paranoid because everyone who touches the avp franchise in the past doesnt even read the books or films their movie entirely in pitch black darkness without any lighting at all because frick you, flat out makes up random shit like predators wanting to inject autism or androids making the xenomorphs completely ignoring the ancient order of aliens engineers and predators with the preds seeding the xenos across planets because gaypley made up that larp fanfiction after his brother anheroed and in his tard despair he wanted to make some fantasy fiction where the engineers padawaned jesus and we killed jesus and thus we 7 billion deserve to die like all their other failed creations because of what a group of like 40 israelites did 200,000 years ago and a 120 year old man being grouchy about not wanting to die. So with this failure following the series, everyone is afraid of using money on the series.

          its no machinko movie and its a tiny bit ME INDIAN ME BIGGUM SMOKEM DEM ALIENS cheesy but its like not as good as django unchained. Its like a 3.5 star movie like watching Jurassic park or phantom menace, where youd watch it once or twice because you forgot what happened exactly. "The Predator" movie is fricking horrendous youtube poop tier meme catchphrase thomas churchill ammityville shit and predators is like a decent sci-fi channel flick. From what I remember, a lot of the movies got "customized" by their "directors" and they abandoned a lot of the scripts. I think predators is semi-cannon and dutch (arnold) is supposed to meet up with them after that movie takes place or they get back to earth and meet dutch but they dont get that far in the story in the movie, so it would need a part 2. I cant remember. Or they scrapped that part of the script and its just either its own thing or some weird non-cannon now canon movie like covenant and prometheus. Prey is a little bit marvel disbelief where the indian girl is a little unrealistic. Shadiversity made a video where he tried to do indian girl's weapon thing for hours hurting himself and thats kind of interesting to watch but yeah. Prey does sync up a bit with the comics and predator 2, so its partially cannon at least.

          oh sorry i got the shower running and i forgot but also concrete jungle is a little difficult control wise than you want it to move, but once you get the hang of it, its fine. The story is pretty nice and you get to hunt people, predators, aliens in this city. Its kind of like the same level of clunky controls youd get with like san andreas with that learning curve of annoyance until you dont even notice it once you get the hang of it. You get to customize your predator and I think theres multiple ways to do things where you can do it silent, melee, or blast the shit out of everyone. But its good. Just like extinction is different in that its an rts and a bit weird to control, but fine once you get the hang of it and you get that avp experience of bringing each faction out and murdering all the rest. Both are decent storywise.

            I'm pretty immune to jankiness in old games so I'll give Concrete Jungle a shot. Extinction is a game I used to play a shit ton of. Would down cans of Amp energy drink back when it was made by Mountain Dew or whatever and came in the skinny predominantly black cans with green accentuation since it reminded me of the color scheme of the case. The formula changed when some other company started making it I think because I distinctly remember the taste of old AMP and Aliens Vs Predator: Extinction being married in my mind.

          Prey is the best Predator movie we've had in ages,
          My only real gripe was how convoluted the plan to kill the predator was and how it relied on the mask and pinpoint precision to land him in the perfect spot for it all to happen.
          i like how her brother needed her to wound the Cat to kill it and she needed her brother to wound the predator for her to best it.
          The setting was good too, with french trappers there and all, it was a good attempt at trying something different.

          Unlike THE Predator which seems like they'd only watched aliens vs predator movies and were making a direct sequel to them.

          >Alien: Isolation
          Best of all the games, Fantastic Ride, Came out of nowhere because everyone was just expecting trash cause of CM.
          >Aliens: Fireteam Elite
          Good attempt, a lot of the new guns felt like they fit the universe, it just felt like there was no real endgame
          >Aliens: Colonial Marines
          Almost shat the bed and killed the franchise, i think had isolation not been coming out so soon, absolutely no one would touch it.

          >Aliens: Dark Descent
          I am really curious about how this would go.

        Marine campaign is (arguably) the best one. I'm not fond of Pred campaigns much at all, but if you enjoy seeing a skull counter go up with the headshots you make, you might disagree.

          I still prefer the pred campaign to the alien one since the power fantasy felt a little more complete. I felt I was able to utilize the strengths of the predator a lot more easily than with the alien. I've always preferred the action horror aspect of the marine campaign to the others so I'll save the marine campaign for last in 2.

          this game was scary as frick iirc

          It definitely can be as a marine (I'm assuming going by my experience with the first game and what others say about it). It's what makes the Aliens: Colonial Marines such a travesty.

          Does anyone know if in the second game enemy Predators can activate their bomb like in the original if you take too long to finish them off once they're down?

Personally I fricking loved zooming around at the speed of sound with a fisheye lens on my face as the Alien in AvP classic, it's a CHALLENGE to control and games are all about challenge. Or they used to be at least.

              Not offensively bad, but incredibly monotonous with infinite swarms of xenomorphs again and again.
              To be fair I recall the OG Predator's campaign towards the end was kind of like that, but I remember the level design being interesting at least. In particular I remember a large underground cave with a very long pipeline stretching across a chasm. When you're about halfway across the pipeline, swarms appear at either end and start rushing towards you along the pipes. You can pick off a few with your speargun before they get in melee range.
              Primal Hunt's Predator campaign on the other hand was basically copy-pasted caves fighting the same swarms over and over.

          Did you know that you can evade the predator disc if you duck before it comes (so it comes low) and the moment is reaches you duckjump to the side. At least that is how i remember it.

    Played the start of the Alien campaign in AvP2 at a friends house when I was like 9 or 10 and I was scared of xenomorphs coming to jump me in my sleep for years after.

    Great game.

      Was that map called "Hangar" or something? I remember the Queen alien stomping through the halls when we played lifecycle.

    Fox basically nuked the whole IP by making AWFUL movies and the lacklustre 2010 game, then Ridley Scott killed whatever interest was left in the Aliens franchise with Prometheus and Covenant, meanwhile Predator got ruined by the movie with the autistic kid (I've not seen Prey though, but I hear it's OK)

    there's probably not much profit left in the franchise because of how bad they ran it into the ground; I still think there are some core dedicated fans who would buy it, but nowhere near enough to make it a viable business venture for modern moron publishers to approve

    Does anyone see a pattern here, games published by Fox interactive tend to be good and of the highest quality?

      do they even still exist?

      also they published Die Hard Trilogy in 1996, so it's not like everything they made was gold

    The server messages in AVP2 mp for kills/suicides were fun. One that's burned into my memory forever

    Not while Disney owns the right. They seem almost autistically averted to letting alien and predator crossover

      Not like Disney is making good decisions for any of its franchises anyways. I wouldn't trust them to put a technically competent team who loves games on anything they make.

      Had to resort to cannibalism which messed with his mind, then his dad recorded his consciousness and put it into a droid which even further messed him up. Then he vowed revenge on the aliens as the cost of human life.

    This was the game that got me into piracy. I remember wanting to play it so bad, but I couldn't find it anywhere for some reason. It needs a modern re-release too. Getting this on Steam would boost the multiplayer even if it's only for a few days.

      At what cost? The morons have their brains so eroded by complacency that they can't look up basic information and are upset when told to frick off because of that.
