Is this game gonna be Hott ?? I'm hoping so...! There have been only a handful of games in the past couple of years that I have truely been anticipating. Unfortunately - those games have been somewhat of a disappointment. :x

Examples of hyped games;RE-5, Force Unleashed, Wolfenstien, Dark Void, and of course MW2 . . .Overall good-but not what I, had hoped for.

The 1st AvP was okay - AVP-2 was Fab! - I really have High expectations of this Latest version of AvP-2010 ! !

So wadda U think? Is this gonna be another "Wolfenstien" flop? Or will this truely be something we should all Lood forward to ? ?

Those are the games you anticipated? I was hyped for L4D2, Dragon Age, Demon's Souls, and Uncharted 2 last year and was not disappointed in the least. I think I'm gonna pre-order AVP, just because it looks insane and I loved the first and second one.

ditto, a good story is crucial. It gives reason to playing.

And I hope the multiplayer is good as well. three-team deathmatch was insanely fun, and then you add the different "classes" to the mix found in AvP 2....sooooo fun.

Predalien FTW!

[QUOTE="DragonfireXZ95"]Those are the games you anticipated? QUOTE] Yeah-and? Wolfenstein-Star wars and CODare all classic titles, of course i was anticipating them. That's why those games were rehashed to begin with....

Anyway, the games u mentioned about anticipating were good, but they're new titles - it seemed clear of my reasoning of why I mentioned my selections of classic titles... but ah well, not everyone catches all meaning of someone elses messages, or some just enjoy disagreeing..

I'm not expecting it to be much more than a dumbed-down multiplatform action game tbh. None of the gameplay footage I've seen seem to contradict this either so I think I'll pass.

I am praying for a great game. I am in no way hoping it fails because I have been following it. Though I must admit I am skeptical.

I personally think it will be a fail... like any other movie-based game.

It's not really a movie cash in though. When was the last AvP movie? Plus, there were the previous AvP games which were good. I'm not saying I think it will absolutely be a good game, there is definitely a chance for failure, but Im hoping it works out for the best. It's no more of a movie cash grab than something like Batman: AA.

AVP games are older then the AVP movies.. And they had nothing to do with the movies outside that it involved humans, predator, and alien.. The games are more loyal to the first three Alien movies and the 2 Predator movies..

Also, AvP existed in comic books Waaaay before any movies were made. So this is more of a comic book tie in than a movie tie in if you want to think about it.

Also-in an interview with one of the AvP game creator - the new Game story will have nothing to do with the 2 AvP movies. SO it'll be a unique story...all on its own..

I think it will be a crappy console port. It may be a good game after some patching but still I have a feeling itll just be another crap port.

I am actually really looking forward to this game, here is why:

- I enjoyed the first two AvP games. Same developer.

- I like being able to play as marine, predator, and alien.

- I have never seen the movies and don't plan to (heard they were garbage), and this has nothing to do with them. The timeline is comic -> book -> video game -> terrible movies -> this game. So I'll be looking forward to a new fresh story. I did however see all of the original Alien movies and The Predator, both of which I loved, meaning I'll enjoy the characters and atmosphere.

- I haven't played a good single-player/multiplayer first person shooter in a while. I think this game will succeed at both aspects from previews I have seen. Lately FPS games have been either strong on multiplayer (TF2, L4D, etc) or strong on single player (Bioshock, Crysis, etc) and can't do both very well.

- I have friends who will be playing as well so it's bound to enhance the experience with us all in vent together.

and finally

- I have a gut feeling about this one. I know it sounds weird, but I am very picky when it comes to games and I'm quick to say "I bet that game is going to be terrible." Something about AvP is telling me it will succeed in my book.

I agree - how in the world could they screw up a game or story like that?? Oh wait, Star wars 1, 2, 3; AvP movies 1&2, CoD MW2, *sigh*

I really am hoping for the best though....I really looked forward to Spore, watched all the vids and interviews etc...was so excited - then WHAM-fail! !

What the heck is going on with these developers??

Considering it's the same developer that made the original Aliens versus Predator I'm pretty sure it will rock.

Why do y'all play AvP games for the story? It's about the atmosphere, the suspense, the hunt, and pissing your pants when you get jumped by a facehugger. I think I'll enjoy it. The kill moves look amazing. The graphics are fantastic for a UE3. The environment is claustrophobic, as it should be. If there's a good story and dialogue, that'll be a bonus. I still doubt it will have either.

There are gameplay vids of the first 10 mins of each race on youtube (providing SEGA hasn't taken them down yet) and in my opinion it looked like a total let down. Underwhelming graphics, dissatisfying combat (except for the kill moves) and fairly bad AI.

Atm I'm predicting 7's, but length, story and multiplayer could boost/lower that.

I read someone saying the movies are based on the game... they are not, at all (or viceversa for all that matter). The AvP movies are utter crap that managed to destroy, not only once, but twice in less than 4 hours two great franchises made up by tons of comics, videogames and 6 kick ass movies. The AvP games are mostly based on the second alien movie, which is in my opinion one of the best movies ever. If they fail to produce a good game with a story similar to that movie and gameplay based on the previous AvP games.... then they should stop making games, forever. In conclusion I think the game should be great. I predict at least an eight.

What I've seen so far looks good, I already preordered it.
