For fanboys only., July 29, 2008
= Fun:2.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Aliens vs. Predator Requiem (Video Game)
This is an ok game to spend playing on an afternoon with nothing better to do. It has nothing really unique about it but it is cool running around as the Predator. There's a few things I didn't like about it. No jump button? Kinda irritating. Also, the fighting is a basic slish slash two hit combo that is frankly boring to watch after the first few times you see it. The different Pred views, (heat,alien, and mechanical) are completely useless. Plus, one of the big draws of the movie was the PredAlien. Not even hinted at. Doesn't exist in the game. And the whole game has but one boss fight, against a helicopter for that matter. Really, I found myself looking forward to the extremely short game to be over. This game is really only good for people who love Predator and Aliens. But even then, it'll just sit in your PSP case.

Very fun, Very fun, and did i mention very fun?, November 21, 2007

This game is great. You play as a predator who can really kick butt, blow up a tank, and be home for dinner. Your main enemies are soldiers, alien warrior, and later you fight predaliens. This game is short but has a lot of replayability. This game is prabably worth 30 bucks but if your a fan like me youll think its worth it. Go slice an alien with your new toy!!

Another movie-to-game transition. not so bad this time., December 25, 2007
= Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Aliens vs. Predator Requiem (Video Game)
I was very suprised at the good graphical values until I went into the thermal/tech/alien vision modes and they either felt it necessary or accidently put in a constant flicker every 2 3/4 seconds and it annoys me trying to attack much less See what I am doing.
alas the cool targeting reticule from the alien vs pred game on pc from 10 years ago has limited use here and only in shoulder gun mode.
you can customize your pred with all the weapons and pred tech you could want for alien head busting and shooting them in alien vision mode can be quite enjoyable.
after a while you realize it's another 3rd person shooter with goals like "collect info from the predator's mask" and "destroy the cloaked predator ship" and while these are decent missions they are dreadfully short.
overall this game is a stripped down of the pc title alien vs predator with a decent control scheme unfortunately bogged down by a few clunky menu systems.
not perfect by far but still a great handheld shooter where you can Cloak sneak up on your friend and let him/her have a good shoulder cannon blast at max power with several choosable pred body types for multiplayer.
Graphics: a bit dark but simply beautiful in places too 4 stars.
Sound: very good 5 stars
Fun: always a blast killing aliens but the multiplayer is where the real fun can be found here. 4 stars
Overall: 4 stars could have had more multiplayer options and quite a bit more customization and sadly the campaign mode seems a little thin and lacking but overall a fun game to play with a few minor flaws.
