Best AVP "addon" well a mod Ive come across was for Unreal Tournament 2004 named 'Alien Swarm' an overhead view tactical squad-based shooter - had single player campaign and co-op missions. Very atmospheric, fast pace like AVP1.

I have all the DVD movies Alien to the last Alien Vs Predator Aliens vs Predator, never played the computer games I hope there just as good as the movie ones. The last movie however Aliens vs Predator - Requiem was a turkey shoot. If they plan to continue I hope they get Sigourney Weaver back into the next one.

IF havn't already checkout the Single & Multiplayer videos on Youtube Son is hounding me to get this when its out. Of course im going to get it!

On one of the videos they mention the Marines campaign is based on the 2nd aliens movie or "Aliens" and some of the actors from Aliens are doing the voice overs.

I hope they put in the scene where the Marine hutchinson freaks out after the heli goes down . Might of got the name wrong but who remebers that part when the marine starts freaking out etc.,

If they are basing it to Aliens, then hell yeah there's going to be Hudson and a "GAME OVER, MAN!! IT'S GAME OVER!!" scene! There has to be.

You poor Aussies, another game in the banning. Of course all your classification does is encourage piracy. How do you keep a keen AvP fanboy away from torrents?

Aliens vs. Predator banned in Australia
http://www.gamespot.com/news/6241970...result;title;0

[UPDATE] Sega and Rebellion's xenomorph-versus-hunter-versus-marines reboot refused classification down under; censor cites explicit violence.

In the '80s-era action film Predator, Austrian beefcake and now California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger famously quipped, "If it bleeds, we can kill it." It seems Australia's Classification Board didn't like the amount of bleeding present in Sega and Rebellion's upcoming Aliens vs. Predator reboot for the Xbox 360, PS3, and PC, effectively banning the game down under by refusing it classification.

The latest banning comes in the same week that the massively multiplayer online game CrimeCraft was refused classification for showing positive effects from in-game drug use. In Aliens vs. Predator's case, however, it seems violence was the key offender, with a Classification Board spokesperson confirming to GameSpot AU that the game's bloody content was to blame.

Sega Australia has confirmed the banning and has not ruled out appealing the decision. "SEGA Australia can today confirm that the initial submission of Aliens vs Predator has been refused classification by the Classification Operations Board of Australia. We will continue to investigate all options available to us, including the possibility of appeal," the company said in a statement.

In previous game bans in Australia, some developers have opted to make changes to their games in order to pass the classification process. The most recent example is the toned-down version of Left 4 Dead 2. Valve was forced to release the revised edition down under when the original, unedited version was banned.

GameSpot AU has requested a full copy of the board's decision but had not received it at the time of publication.

[UPDATE] The Classification Board has now released its official ruling to GameSpot AU, and Aliens vs. Predator's high-impact violence was indeed a motivating factor for the ban.

"The game contains first-person perspective, close-up depictions of human characters being subjected to various types of violence, including explicit decapitation and dismemberment as well as locational damage such as stabbing through the chest, mouth, throat, or eyes," the board report stated.

"Characters can be stabbed with a Predator's wrist blade or an Alien's tail in depictions reminiscent of impalement. The Predator collects 'trophies' by explicitly ripping off human heads, their spinal columns dangling from severed necks. Heads can be twisted completely around in order to break a character's neck. Eyes can be stabbed through or gouged, leaving empty, bloodied eye sockets.

"It is noted that a player is able to combine manoeuvres together in quick succession, which further increases impact; for example, a Predator can stab a character through both eyes with its wrist blade and rip off their head, with spinal column still attached. Extensive post-mortem damage, including decapitation and dismemberment, is also possible."

Jeesh, got into the lobby, which promptly got migrated, twice, because the host quit. Not even gonna bother unless we can get a group together.

Thank god the full game has dedicated servers.

* and oh yes, it's a DX11 title.

[Dowly]

Well... the demo blows. Why the hell cant I just make an old fashioned join in progress game? Hell, I cant even host a game! I spent 5 minutes looking at the "Searching for match..." screen and quit.

[Arclight]

At least it ran.

Placed the order today, just have to wait for it to arrive.

That hunter edition is going for €70-€80, bit too much afaiac.

[Dowly]

Yeh, but this MP is really putting me down with this. If they're going to keep it like this in the full game, which I presume they will, it's going to ruin the MP. As it would mean that you cant host a game, but have to deal with this match making BS. Hell, we even tried it so I invited Potato to my "group", but we still had to find a game to play (which again, was taking it's time, so I quit).

Oh well, hoping for the best, fearing for the worst and that stuff.
