Well, I had remembered hearing about this game when it first came out with the despicable movie it was tied in with. It looked a bit like a portable version of Predator: Concrete Jungle, which being a big Predator fan I had no problem with that. However once you get the game you quickly realize that all of the magic of hunting and stalking that you would or could have had is basically wasted because you just plain can't stalk the aliens in this game, if you're anywhere on the map they come and find you, which is nice but it takes away from the hunting aspect of it all.
HUGE note that I wish I would have been informed of when I bought this game. The Predator does not jump! Yes we will leap across gaps automatically if you run at them but mostly he's stuck to the ground for the entire game. Which might not be such a big deal to some folks but as old as this game is now anyone buying it is probably someone looking for P:CJ type action well this is not it. It's still pretty fun, you get all the sound effects and music, weapons and stuff that comes with the predator, it just really fails to put you in the predator from the movie's shoes. Now, for being a movie tie-in, this game, THANKFULLY, has almost nothing to do with it's namesake aside from the locale and basic story outline.
Overall, it's a good decent action melee/shootem up with a sci-fi twist. And a must have for any hardcore Predator fans looking to step into the shoes of the laziest hunter in the Predator species.Get more detail about Aliens vs. Predator Requiem.
