So I've decided that, at least until it is summer again, that I will review things. They may be books, games, movies, whatever, but it will be me giving my opinion about them. I'll start with the AVP 3 demo, so look for it this weekend on Youtube. |

Geez, you hate the game this much? I realize you think 2 is better, but you don't need a whole topic to criticize it, do you? |

No, but I need a whole video. And besides it'll be other things too. At the momment it's already low, I can hardly use the menu, and it runs really slowly. http://www.lithfaq.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=1273&f=118 Others share my sadness. |

well the gameplay was fun and the marines weapons just felt good. But the terrible connection (or just my lack of skill) made playing Predator and Alien hard. Though ripping out someone's spine NEVER gets old.

I would love to start the game, but nobodies on the PS3 version, so I'm waiting, and waiting, and waiting. |

I will say a good thing about it (and this is just from what I've seen since it doesn't seem to work on my computer), I like what they did with the smartgun (it still tracks but you have to aim it, making it a lot less cheap), I like the sprint feature on the marines, and I like that the marines can shove people back. It looks pretty at least. But somethings are just bad in any seance, an example is no crouch. I like to be able to hide behind cover and to also get improved accuracy by crouching. Plus in team games if you have a lot of people, if the guys in front crouch the guys in the back don't get friendly fire. Why can't I see my ping, why can't I disable motion blur. Why is it plain and simply a console port! And some things go against AVP. Where are my different kinds of alien, marine, predator? Where is my leap, and my predtech vision (or my goggles and nightvision), where is my minnigun (then again that could easily just be the demo)? THIS GAME RUPTURED MY CENTRAL CORTEX AND SPLIT BOTH MY KIDNEYS IN TWO BECAUSE ALL IN ALL I'D HAVE TO GIVE IT A 4.0 OUT OF 10.0!!! |

That wasn't so much of a review, more of a list of questions. I would like you to keep in mind that this is only a demo, so it's basically a representation of less than a fifth of the entire project. |

Ill have you know that most of the people complaining on you're link didn't know what they were talking about. Crouch just wouldn't fit on the controllers becuase it had already been packed with so many other things. This is an example of caurse. But a lot of the complaintss were not well founded at all. The Pulse rifle only lost accuracy when firing for long periods of time, aliens could indeed attack from ceilings and very often do, aliens also move very fluidly and serpentine at some times, and yes there is a great deal of whoring the stealth kills, but that happens in every game ( the key is to be aware of your surroundings at all times so noone can sneak up to you.) The game had to sacrifice quite a few other MINOR details,(crouching, and classes) for the sake of fluidity and balence. The game is balenced beautifully, with a brilliant combat system. Things such as other aliens species and large amounts of weapons just over complicate an already amazingly difficult task. If the balencing was even the tinniest bit off, then The entire game would have suffered. This also ment that little cannon things such as the alien life cycle and predator technologies had to be excluded. The problem is, that though the PC has room for a vast amount of gameplay options, the console doesn't. This issn't saying that this is a console port, but the PC version shouldn't play So enormously different from the console version that they could be classified as two different games. And anyway, I prefer the console, becuase the price of a graphics card that could play this game is enourmous, and the controller makes it much easier to play. |

You are right in some ways, even though I'd like to not admit it. As I said before, thank goodness for modding communities, maybe we can get an AVP 2: Rebirth, or something. On the list of questions, that is actually me just pointing out what it's lacking. Still I don't like the idea of a console port, especially since it is an AVP game and the original were on comp. It's like saying in ten years they make a new halo that's for computer and Xbox, but then they go and make it mostly for comp, but port it to Xbox. Another way of viewing why I'm upset about it is imagine this: A Halo game isn't made for 10 years, then sega picks it up. They decide to make it for this great new virtually reality system, where that's what it'll mostly tie into, and then to try and make more prophit they put it on a new Playstation and Xbox, but it's mostly geared for the new system. Then they take out dual wielding and equipment, and they simply call it Halo, forgetting to mention it's Halo X (x standing for number). But they do make it so that you get 17 different Spartans to choose from, and no elites. That is basically how I feel toward the game. |

No Xeno life cycle? No predtech? ....Is this an AVP game? Or am I just nostalging AVP Extinction? |
