The Alien vs Predator history and the games starts off pretty simple and then goes all over the places with incredible highs such as the Aracde release by Capcom and 1999 released by Rebellion. But it also ha some rather damning lows such as the endless amounts of mobile games (that took me ages to find btw and delayed this video as a result)

Just have to say you are still one of the best youtubers out there. Your videos are never boring, not even one second of your video is filler. All cohesive and interesting to listen to. Hope you and yours have a great day! Thank you for entertaining us in this time of having to make very important decisions in our lives for our childrens future. Thank you
I dont mean to be off topic but does any of you know a trick to log back into an instagram account..?
I was stupid forgot the login password. I would love any assistance you can give me!
@Milan Noah instablaster ;)
@Samir Manuel I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site on google and Im trying it out now.
Takes quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Samir Manuel It did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D
Thanks so much, you saved my account !
I never saw the Predators as evil at all. Sure, they began as the antagonist in the movies, but in the comics and expanded universe, and even in the second movie, there's more of an honorable hunter than evil. They're warriors who hunt species to prove/test themselves. So, in the first AvP movie, the team up was actually pretty fitting. Not a great movie or anything, but the idea was solid.
That AvP for the Atari Jaguar was amazing. Playing as the Colonial Marine was terrifying. Playing as the Predator feels like a total badass and playing as the Aliens would give you that hive mentality once you got the 1st few face hugs out of the way.
It really was like 3 different games.
Lt. Kurosawa was _always_ my favorite character in the AvP Capcom arcade game!
Me too. That sword and pistol make her deadly.
She is now my favorite Disney princess lol
She actually made a cameo in Street fighter Alpha 2 in Kens level as a background character.
@@yoda908 🤷🤷🤷
i remember absolutely loving the 1999 AVP computer game and playing for so many hours straight as a little kid
I would like to point out that with the first AVP movie, the team up part is actually a partial repeat of events in the comics with Mariko who was running around with the Predators for quite a while...
Yea and I totally loved the AvP comic and loved the teamup I never saw the Predators as evil. The AvP movie I didnt like I wanted a movie that was following the comic more
Exactly!
@@JM.Bengtsson Alien vs Predator comics is still from Dark Horse Comics ?
Hey Slop, I saw your video and recognized my own game play at 18:29 for AvsP game. Which I did a review of, on my own channel. I don't mind you borrowing my recordings, but a little recognition would have been nice.
Slop here :P I did put a lost of all used assets below mate / I remember not being able to find a way to contact you using social media or email. Feel free to drop me a dm using any of my socials or email buddy :D
Yeah, he used mine for Alien vs. Predator on the Jaguar. It's especially obvious when they leave edits/dissolves/zooms intact.
While I'm not that hard to get ahold of, I get that some folks may be hard to reach. Regardless, it's not that hard to actually credit the footage within the video proper, a practice Stop Skeletons From Fighting employs regularly.
Because of the US election I remembered the tag line from the AvP movie: "Whoever wins, we lose." :D
That sounds about 110% right
Wow, I was 16 in 2004 and remember seeing this in the theater with my friend. He got his license before me so we got to go without the need for parents. The election was the furthest from my mind, as I wasn’t old enough to vote anyway. Man, I miss those carefree days.
Joe Biden winning means America DOESN'T lose.
@Joao
Now that's high brow.

No, the original poster is absolutely correct.
AvP 2010 multiplayer was pretty fun when it was active, sad that you didn't talk about it but understandable since the game died up.
My favorite modes were the 3 way TDM with Predators, Aliens and Marines going at each other, the "predator mode" where one player played as predator and the others as marines, with the one who kills the predator becoming the predator the next round (far better than the last Predator game btw) and the Aliens mode similar as the Predator one but when the alien kills a Marine the player becomes an Alien and has to hunt his former mates.
Its still fairly active right now on xbox. Depending on the time of day theres quite a few lobbies to play in.
Game isn't dead on PC, it's actually pretty active
I remember playing the demo, and it was an FFA but always the marines would team up XD was a fun game shame it got so much hate back when it was released. We have not had a good alien / predator game since....
AvP for the arcade by Capcom is a forgotten gem of a game.
It is easily one of the best beat em up's ever made!!
Proudly own this arcade board. Classic!
Indeed! I finally got to play it via that Capcom plug and play
"Forgotten gem" that is often talked about...I swear no one understands what words mean anymore...
Never forgotten!
Man, I have so many good memories playing AvP on the Jaguar. Playing it in a dark room just added to the creepiness of the experience. I remember many gaming mags complaining about the lack of background music, (and it probably was left off due to the limitations of the Jaguar,) but I think it actually added to the suspense and made it a more immersive experience. It is the first game I can remember playing where I was genuinely afraid to see what was next. I still have my Jaguar and AvP in storage, I I often think about taking it out for another play, but I never do. I'm sure it won't be as good as I remember and I'd hate to tarnish those memories.
Extinction was actually quite fun. Especially playing as the Xenomorphs. It's also not as easy as you seem to think. The first few levels of each race is pretty easy, but those are basically tutorial levels. Once you get past those it actually becomes an acceptable challenge. I think the biggest issue with it is that using a controller for RTS games just isn't as intuitive or as functional as RTS games require. But even with that caveat, it's a great game and I would like to see a remake make it's way to PCs.
"Some guy at Ubisoft" hahaha I love it
AvP is what sold me on the Jaguar. I remember seeing it at EPCOT (of all places) in their video game expo area. Incredible game and proves the Jaguar is far more powerful than the SNES and Genesis.
That Alien Trilogy music is just damn awesome.
The AvP 1 and 2 LAN pc multiplayer is amazing I have loads of fond memories of playing that at friends houses well into the night, a friend having set up turrets in one of the levels that made him tough to get near as an alien to then respawn as an alien queen and just destroying them. Or playing as a runner alien and leaping half way across the map to attack someone playing as a marine, playing in separate rooms and hearing them shouting from the other room was **chefs kiss**
Affiliating Predators with 'pure evil' isn't exactly on the mark there. Its totally plausible for Predators to team up with humans against a greater threat. Read the comic Predator: Fire and Stone, its done perfectly in that scenario.
I love the Predator franchise and Predator is one of my top 10 favorite movies of all time, I love playing the 2010 AVP game, I love playing as The Predator.
While not officially "AvP" I'm a bit surprised you didn't cover the Alien and Predator 'Cameos' as playable characters in Mortal Kombat. The fact these 2 characters are even included says much about fan appreciation as well as allowing a "VS" experience.
18:57 That's my Buddy Andy's gameplay footage he has a great review on his channel Master-Cast TV.
Man, I remember loving Aliens vs Predator for the pc, but then getting hopelessly stuck for a long time playing the Alien campaign because at one point, you're a facehugger trying to take down a predator, and he could literally one shot you to death while you had to get in many hits to kill him, meaning the stealth you generally had as an advantage crawling through vents and attacking from a good angle, was gone the moment you did attack!
It took me hours upon hours of replaying that one mission, breezing through the first half at some point only to get into a circle strafing battle with the predator where if I was fast enough, he couldn't kill me.
I am surprised the Disney acquisition of the IPs was not mentioned at the end. Dark Horse had their publication contracts ended so the future of the two IPs and their combined version is up in the air right now.
My favorite is the 2010 rebellion AVP game. I loved each campaign, the fantastic sound design with some surround sound headphones made me feel truly immersed in the world. The main problem that people had was the close combat and that Predator was definitely OP.
01:41 is that Groot there on the left? Also, the Xeno wasn't really inspired by Giger's work, it was designed by the man himself. What a master artist. RIP.
Awesome video Slope! You never disappoint
I really have to say that when the P.C. version came out it was a incredible time to play online. This online multi play really blew me away it was my first online playing game. I feel special for witnesses online play in general at the time.
Avp 2010 is a game I would still play regularly if online was more active. The reviews at the time couldn't be more wrong. It needs to be more popular
I loved most of the games on this list, mostly because im a superfan of both and its all we got, spent countless hours on AVP2, extinction and the later AVP game, none were amazing but i loved them at the time, thanks for doing this video, super nostalgic. Here's hoping we get a competent dev to make something new in either franchise.
saw Groot's head on the wall at 1:41 ....hahaha
Missed one. "Predator: Concrete Jungle" April 15, 2005.
I think he was just focusing on the game with both alien and predator in them.
@@alexreinwald4785 there are both Aliens and Predators in Concrete Jungle and its loosely based on Alien vs Predator Eternal.
Oh did not know that.
What system?
@@noskoolikeoldskool PS2 and original Xbox
you deserve much more subscribers and views for your hard work in these well-edited videos. and for all the research and effort. I really appreciate your channel.
Alien versus Predator Extinction needs more love. If a proper one with skirmish, online play, and maybe a conquest mode was made it would be fuckin awesome.
My complaint is it's short. I wouldn't complain much otherwise. The game was damn fun while I had it.
@@exoticcreature3059 that's why it needed a proper skirmish mode.
@@propheinx2250 There's a problem with. More on that in a moment. I'd like to have seen more missions. 15 for each campaign, minimum. Of course the game took up 2,000 KB of memory as is so imagine how much would be consumed when it's nearly twice as large. My problem with skirmish is the hunter predator. A basic general purpose predator that's unambitious in it's basic form and in small numbers. But look at this. 10 x 60 = 600. That's how damage you with 10 hunters in quick succession. It gets worse when you purchase more hunters and upgrade. The developers fell asleep at the wheel with that one.
@@exoticcreature3059 if they were to make a follow up they could give the predators a population cap of 3 (I seem to remember they only hunt in groups up to 3, could've seen it in a movie or other game) and hiring extras would be expensive. They'd rely upon upgrading their usable arsenal until you've got 3 super soldiers armed to the teeth. Aliens would keep the same motif of unruly numbers but mostly all melee attackers. They could boost the alien population cap a bit and include more xenomorph types. Humans would still be the in between. Less numbers than aliens and less tech than predators. I'd say the campaign could be mostly as short as extinction as long as it has an online and offline skirmish mode with plenty of varying maps and/or a random map generator, although I would like it to be longer than extinction's campaigns. I'd like for each of the 3 campaigns to be as long as the entirety of extinction. The humans resource gathering would need to be changed, it's bullshit that humans run out of money gathering spots to use but aliens and predators don't have a money cap. Aliens and predators would keep their resource gathering techniques, they work just fine. I'd love a LotR Battle for Middle Earth style conquest mode, but I can't really think of a good way to make that work for AVP. It's safe to say I've put a lot of thought into what a proper sequel to Alien vs Predator Extinction should be.
@@propheinx2250 Maybe but somehow the idea of one species being a total powerhouse compared to it's competition rubs me the wrong way. On one hand the powerhouse characters are vastly outnumbered in order to more or less limit the devastation you can bring. On the other hand they're so powerful that you have to outnumber them greatly for any chance of defeating them. It wouldn't appear as a level playing field in my eyes, even if it is. You're on point with one thing though. The Marines earned currency much slower and seemingly less than the other two class of characters. You'd think that because Marines are weaker than the other two (and slower) they would earn a fair amount of currency for killing enemies. But no, no, no. I also wasn't a fan of having to wait some 30 seconds for ordered Marines to arrive AND waiting for the dropship to leave after the fact before I could order more. Could I order more than 6 at a time then maybe the wait would be worth it. But no, no, no.
Was that music from Aliens Trilogy on PS ??? Phew, I'm not the only person that tried putting the PS disc in a CD player - some really moody, atmospheric tracks and worth a listen 🎶
Excellent taste sir 👌
I played Aliens the arcade game with my 8 year old nephew and he loved every second of it, he'd never played a game like it before, the old arcade games certainly had something special
Did you noticed that the voice from the Jaguar commercial was Vin Diesel?
Cool.
I played the AvP jaguar version back then and the sound added a lot to the atmosphere
The first AVP film is a bit of guilty pleasure for me too. I never understood though why they didn't just follow the 1st comic a bit more closely and keep it in the Aliens future time line, rather than setting it in the present day. Capcom's AVP game is my definite favourite too.
That Capcom Arcade game ate all my quarters as a kid.
Avp2 is imo one of the best games. It captures the atmosphere of both franchises so well and the marine campaign was genuinely Scary. A real shame that this game did never get a re-release or remake or whatever.
For me it's AvP 2, loved the single player especially the marine campaign and had a blast with my mates at the time in the MP.
Dude, I loved Extinction as a kid. As a StarCraft AND Alien fan, it was perfect for me.
My favourite is Aliens versus Predator 2. There are some seriously inspired choices (Like playing as a Facehugger & Chestburster in the Alien campaign) and it has the right tone for the series. The arcade game is pretty dope too.
I may be alone, but I love Alien vs Predator Extinction a lot! I go back and play it every few years! I was really hoping for a sequel! I really really have a blast playing it! Especially as the Aliens!
For AvP 2 you missed to mention the amazing multiplayer. The different kinds of alien and predators you can choose made for very unique and fun playstyles.
And the fantastic "Under the Hunters Moon" mod that follow the first avp movie.
My most favorite entries video games wise for AVP was the Arcade Game made by Capcom(Most favorite character to play as was Lt. Linn Kurosawa), the FPS titles for PC, and the FPS title for PS3, PC, and 360 that Sega, and Rebellion did.
Love the plop sound in the water I think Universal came in the toilet afterwards and grabbed it out of the toilet to make a lot of their Alien and Predator films and games.
Still remember buying the big box of AVP 1999 with my pocket money and the game blew my mind back in the day
Another great complete history 😃! Absolutely brilliant mate🔥! DJ slope, I say it again, you truly are a legendary documentarian and UA-camr🙏. God bless you mate👍. Thank you for this gem of a video.😄.
Watched a few videos but this one got me to sub. Love it!!!!
Cheers @kaz
The aesemetrical multiplayer in Aliens vs Predator for the win9X PC was a lot of fun. Also, this game has different FMV cutscenes for the US release. The British actors were replaced with US ones. I had the one with the US actors, and I was really confused when I bought the game on Steam and saw different FMV cutscenes. But it is easy to mod them back in.
Hellz Yeah. Good stuff. Always top-notch content as usual.
I watched the Robocop, Terminator, Alien and Predator films before I was 10. I had good parents.
the AVP arcade game was the first time I truly understood the appeal of the arcade. I hate to think how many coins that machine got from me in my youth.
The plop sound when he was on the loo was a great addition lol
Hahaha well spotted
Thank you for making this! Great video.
I remember the AVP 2010 game having a long lifetime with dedicated fan base and clans still playing. I remember when i played its multiplayer i felt the most edge of my seat multiplayer gameplay ive ever felt, not sure what it was, probably the skill of the hand to hand combat and the strategic knowing of when to do exicutions since you could get killed while your ripping skulls out.
I loved gears and halo and call of duty, but for some reason AVP 2010's multiplayer just felt the most intense. And if im turning off those blockbusters for being too boring and putting AVP back in, then it dosent matter what anyone says about the game, thats something special that only the lovers of the game gave the chance to find, and found! Too bad they didnt get to make a sequel to that one.
Seriously Capcom needs to release this back out?
Infact,Capcom should do a complete collection of every single beat-em-up they have made🥺
Error: 1:20 mark
The original predator was design by Richard Edmund, it was bug inspired. From filming to visual stand point there were needs for a change. Then Stan Winston was hired later to, came up with what we know now.
AVP SNES had an awesome boss theme though. Also AVP Extinction is easily one of my all time favorite RTS games, it would literally be my perfect AVP RTS if it just had a Skirmish mode.
I bought a Jaguar purely for AVP (still own it) . I was obsessed with it, amazing game for its time . Truly next gen stuff.... Shame the system didn't follow up with any more killer games!
great episode!
Avp for pc was my first game I ever owned and the arcade down the street had the capcom arcade game. Always loved the franchise.
I remember one of my old game magazines saying the gba game was gonna be a port of the jaguar one.
I personally loved the 2010 AVP game.
Can we have a show of hands for folks that would also love to see Konami put the plinko down for a sec and release their Aliens arcade game to consoles ? Maybe a little remastery , but not a reboot.
Oh man, No One Lives Forever. Every time I hear those words I wanna re-install it haha. Got a similar guilty pleasure to your with AvP but it's with Freddy vs Jason haha. And the pachinko Xenomorth at 28:53 looks like it's taking a painful shit.
AvP and AvP 2 (PC) were the beez kneez. Played the living acid out of those games. Scared the shit out of me in first mission where you hear that hissing but it's just steam and then... no spoilers ;)
And that familiar clicking sound
Yep had both the 1st and 2nd. Spent plenty of time in the skirmish mode staying in the bunker and see how long I could last.
AVP 2 2001 definitely had the best Colonial Marines campaign and Xenomorph campaign. Really captured the feel of the films.
I do think the Predator campaign in AVP 2010 is better, but overall that game while fun was a major step down from AVP 2 2001.
I honestly liked the first A v P movie. The first two alien movies are masterpieces imo. The first predator movie is a masterpiece, the second one is good.
Far as games....I'm so glad you mentioned that Gameboy one! I have that and it's honestly pretty solid little game, not great by any means but it's s great effort. My favorite obscure one tho is the alien one for DS where you control diff space Marines in a very cool metroidy like game
anybody else saw Groot @1:43 ? :D
Awesome vid buddy
glad ya like it mate
Oh man d.j your good. Once again another great episode.
The original comic series still stands the test of time. It's still great to this day. They should've just straight adapted it into an R-rated movie, instead of the messy PG-13 joint we got.
And AvP 2010 was an underrated game. It's not perfect but it's still fun & genuinely scary at times. Of course, Capcom's arcade masterpiece is still the best.
That capcom AvP arcade game is probably one of the best beat 'em ups ever created.
You missed AvP Extinction, an awesome RTS
Agreed as far as the 1994 Capcom Arcade Game goes, it's still awesome to play today! :)
He talked about AvP Extinction.
Nice one!
My favorites are the Legendary Encounters (a little beyond the scope of this but still), one you can play the predator movies, the other you can play the alien movies, and you can mix both to make it an AvP game.
I bought the 2010 AvP game solely because it had a disgustingly realistic rubber Facehugger with posable limbs in the collector's box. Almost ashamed to say that the game itself is still in it's wrap and I never played it!
I like the command and conquer one. Alien vs predator. I played it on the og Xbox. U had 3 campaigns with missions on each.
I still have a big soft spot for the SNES AVP beat em up, because it's actually what introduced me to both franchises when I was 8 years old! Rented it from the video store based on the awesome cover art and the cool designs and world led me to seek out all the movies and comics and so on.
I loved it honestly and the music is soooo good
@@HarryToeface Honestly the story opening and the first levels music is etched into my brain from booting it up so many times back then. It's overlooked in the sound department.
Excellent video and much respect on not planning the Jaguar title. Its an easy shot taken by too many content creators and I'm glad you didn't fall fowl.
Yeah I think a key point was overlooked with this " pure evil " statement ,
They are from different worlds , with no common source of references , yet manage to overcome and take down a bigger stronger threat , if anything they don't care... But evil .... No definitely not
Extinction was good simple fun; you're under selling it. The atmosphere was on point & playing through with each species was highly enjoyable. Merely sampling it for a review wouldn't give you enough perspective.
Simple and complex. All the characters with their different abilities and all the different objectives. Not about weapon balance but rather character balance. A game where you consider employing some characters you don't like very much but can't argue against what they offer, like the Runner. Plus it's one game in which I totally commend the inclusion of over-the-top alien designs that would never fly in movies. Ravager. Unfortunately the developers fell asleep at the wheel when they created the Hunter predator. It's just a general purpose predator, right? Moderate speed, moderate health, moderate damage, defeats enemy armor, good attack range, and can attack while retreating. That part is pretty cheap. Not going to lie. The upgrade is awesome but doesn't make the Hunter the ultimate character in the game. So what went wrong? The Hunters immediately control the battlefield when you utilize only Hunters, apart from the Shrine. They're so powerful in numbers that you can walk through each mission whether or not you upgrade them. 10x60=600. That's how much damage you'll deal with 10 hunters and that damage will be dealt in quick succession with just a basic hunter. It gets worse when you employ more hunters and upgrade them. The developers fell asleep at the wheel with that one.
It's the novel rewrite to the movie that's a problem that makes the hunan/predator tema up a problem. I highly recommend the AvP novels Machiko and broken tusk were pretty good team
I vaguely remember reading these about twenty years ago and thoroughly enjoying them.
Sorry, but Jane Whittaker's a con artist. Yes, he worked on Alien vs. Predator for Atari Jaguar, though Jane didn't have that kind of pull, nor did he work with H.R. Giger. Jane didn't work on Dark Seed either. Around the time I was to interview him for my channel, I was digging into games Jane claimed to have worked on, and Dark Seed was one of 'em. After trying the Saturn release, Jane's name was not present - not as Andrew or Jane Whittaker. Odd, considering Jane claimed to be the model for Dark Seed's protagonist, as well as such good friends with Giger. When I asked Jane about his name's absence, his response was that he was only credited in the original Amiga version. First, it was an MS-DOS release first. The Amiga port would follow later that year. Second, Andrew/Jane is not credited in ANY release of Dark Seed. Not one. Third, Jane is not the model in Dark Seed; it's Mike Dawson - one of the actual designers of the game.
Jane *did* work on Alien vs. Predator, though he's been inflating his work more and more each year for Alien vs. Predator is his one LEGITIMATE claim to fame.
Aliens Vs Predator 2 2001 by Monolith Productions is the best game in the franchise in my opinion. Truly sucks that it isn't available for purchase on any gaming platforms, especially Steam.
Get Nightdive Studios on an HD remaster for APP 2 2001 stat.
Shame it didn't get a port to the original Xbox either. The port of Return to Castle Wolfenstein was pretty good.
I remember reading the synopsis of what was intended to be the first film......back in '93........in an issue of GAMEPRO 😬
I was born in may of 99 I missed all the fun with games . I wish we had games like this now where you just buy a system for a few hundred maybe 150 after it's been out for a year or two and can just buy a bunch of games and play them . Now you need a million dollars , internet, streaming service to get games that can be taken away. it's all just to much now and way to expensive. So I just watch videos about games on UA-cam. I must of watched a million resident evil videos on UA-cam but never actually played the game, same with the aliens and predator games.
@@Luciana_McC_99 really appreciate your insight ! It's valuable to hear other people's perspectives - I'm constantly checking with myself 'Is this how it is, or is this how I feel it is'. Times sure have changed, big money came in and changed how it all gets made.
@@adamfrazer5150 thank you, that's a very good perspective to have. I checked out your page if you want check out my documentaries playlist I think I have some you might enjoy. I hope all is well on your end. Best wishes to you and yours. 🤍
22:41 Sly cooper you. I recognize that music. Can't remember the name of the level/chapter but it's in the Predator campaign of of the AVP 2 pc game. Is it not?
Bonus points for use of the Alien 3 Megadrive game music. I love that soundtrack, it's one of the few that I listen to regularly. May be the polar opposite of the film's vibe and score though!
I'm not gonna lie, I was triggered by some of the tiny mistakes in the first few minutes.... I need to go outside more. Thanks for an awesome video and the tip of the hat to the well known Explosive fan base
Wait people didn't like the 2010 AvP? I absolutely loved it at the time.
Avp part 2 was really good I thought a whole lot better than the original avp
I wholeheartedly agree with you! I enjoyed AVP 2010 immensely!
Snopes, why couldn't you watch the Alien and Predator films as kids (by law). Is it different in the UK than it is here in the States? For example, it's perfectly legal (and stupid) to take a group of 5 year old's to see the next Hostel film. My parents of course wouldn't let me watch the Alien and Predator movies when I was a kid...but that never stopped me. By the time I was...I want to say 10 I watched the first two Alien films and definitely the first Predator. I was in my early teens before I saw the second Predator movie.
At any rate, this is the best video you have ever done my friend and you're already my top content creator. This is truly a labor of love from a franchise that I hold near and dear to me heart. Just like the games drove the series forward they too captivated me. I can remember the first time I saw AVP for the Atari Jaguar...it damn near brought me to tears. No other gane from that time looked and played like that.
My favorite AVP game...that's a tough one and the arcade version isn't even being considered...Top 3.
1. AVP PC
2. AVP 2 PC
3. AVP Jaguar
Sorry for the late reply, but yes, it is different in the UK. Our higher age ratings are 12A (Children under 12 must be accompanied by an adult), 15, and 18. The 15 and 18 work like the MPA's NC-17, with no Children under those ages are allowed in the cinema by law.
Capcom not rereleasing AvP is one of the biggest crimes in gaming
Massive shame
Out of this world good fun! 👽👍🛸
Kudos for the Genesis Alien 3 theme song at the very beginning! ^^ And actually, my guilty pleasure isn't the first AvP movie, but the second one! Yes, it's a terrible B-movie and has the story of a generic horror movie, but it's a gory mess that I can enjoy even more than the first movie. It does aim too much for shock value and too little for quality, I can certainly see that. But that's why it's called a guilty pleasure :P
On the videogames front, my favorite was definitely AvP2 from Monolith, followed closely by the Capcom beat'em up. The 1999 game comes third, although I still haven't played the latest AvP shooter but already got it on a Steam sale, so who knows! I also did play the SNES game, and I don't remember hating it, but it certainly didn't leave a huge mark on me ^^
Pretty sure Dutch's bio in AVP Arcade says he's a cyborg created by the Marines or military so yeah its not totally not the same character from the movie
that AvP Prey novel briefly mentioned is my all time fave novel (yes, you heard that right) and involves humans and preds teaming up, but its done in a much more tasteful way than the film and is infinitely better. Honestly the concept isnt even that bad if you know the lore of the predators, Humans can be seen as respected warriors even as far back as the 2nd film where the predator elders let Glover go because he defeated one of their own in fair combat. I honestly dont know why you have such a problem with this
I didn't know people hated the avp 2010 game!!!I put alot of time into that game and thought it was great
I grew up with the Jaguar game. Thought it was the best thing ever at the time
Whoever wins, we lose. Wonder if the release date of this video was a coincidence.
AvP for the jaguar is my favorite.
