3 Deadly Foes - Only One Can Emerge Victorious

Predator:

Predators have hunted Aliens on LC-1201 for generations. Now Humans have disrupted the natural order. Gain honor by freeing your comrades and eliminating anyone who comes between you and your prey.

Wristblades, a shoulder cannon, a two-handed spear, and a netgun will take down your enemies, but your ability to bend light and stalk your prey unseen is your greatest weapon.

Alien:

LV-1201 has been a breeding ground for your kind for over 10,000 years. With your deadly speed, lethal jaws, and pounce and slash attacks, ride your home of these invaders to save your queen and your race.

Use your deadly razor-sharp claws, teeth, and tail to exterminate your enemies.

Marine:

Dispatched to LV-1201 to investigate the disappearance of researchers, you'll need nerves of steel as you search for other Humans on a planet teeming with lethal creatures out for your blood.

Your arsenal includes a pulse rifle, flamethrower, rocket launcher, welding torch to cut open doors, and a hacking device to break into computer systems.

Reviews:

Adrenaline Vault by Jeff Haynes

"...When Fox Interactive and Rebellion unleashed Aliens vs. Predator on the gaming world in 1999, they managed to successfully enrapture and terrify us with a glimpse into an interstellar conflict that had only been raging in the confines of the comic book world. Since the late 1980s, Dark Horse Comics has enthralled fans of both the "Alien" and "Predator" film franchises with tales of Alien infestation, the Predators that hunt them, and the unfortunate humans that find themselves trapped between the two sides. Similarly, the original title, a very successful port from the ill-fated Atari Jaguar, instilled a palpable sense of dread as players ran, crawled, and leapt through level after level of ferocious enemies. Fox was so convinced of the shock value experienced by watching these characters battle it out they offered a pair of free underwear to people who purchased it. Two years later, Sierra has teamed up with Fox Interactive and Monolith to scare devotees even more with the much-anticipated sequel, Aliens vs. Predator 2."

"...Monolith goes a little farther with its development of the plot. Each species has seven missions available that are layered with multiple levels. The selection of a specific character presents the plot in a racially specific way; however, the title manages to interweave side plots of the other characters to deepen the playing experience..."

"Aliens vs. Predator 2 is a solid fore into this popular universe by Monolith. Stocked with phenomenal sound and music, lots of eye candy, and a stable multiplayer feature, AVP2 improves upon the science fiction horror formula established by its predecessor..."
