Aliens vs Predator OR Battlefield: Bad Company ?

Wait and see how the beta perfroms on PC for Bad Company 2, and then make your desicion.

I'm personally getting both but if it came down to just 1 choice I'd just flip a coin ;)

No idea... After Rebellion released Rogue Trooper my hopes aren't high for AvP.

The right choice.

I would get AvP.

Rebellion has a terrible game record. I would stick with Bad Company 2 just to be safe....

well, wait for the avp demo we've been promised.

anyone know when thats coming out, btw?

BFBC2

Both look promising. The preorder is so far in advance from release, there is plenty of time to save some money and get both. I don't understand the concept of people buying a game a month or 2 before release? Last night I preordered Mass Effect 2, only because the deadline said 3 days till release.
Rather have the money sitting in the bank geting some interest in that time.

What this man said. I've been avidly researching the development of these two for the last month and honestly both are very different from each other and offer some intense quality single and multiplayer choices that are totally unique in the FPS genre. I've pre-ordered both and expect to only purchase Starcraft 2 after that for years of gaming pleasure.

If ya had to choose only one then I'd decide based on what YOU want from a FPS.

BFBC2: Contemporary, asymmetric, military class based combat; destructible sandbox gameplay with and without vehicular combat; squad and mission objective based; far more realistic portrayal of ballistics with a heavy reliance on good communication to succeed.

AvP: Sci-Fi/Horror and corridor/small map, asymmetric "infantry" only combat, highly unique classes that have zero gameplay overlap, potential for Starcraft levels of asymmetrical tactics, L4D style mode called "Survival" that might be as fun as the normal TD.

Both games are highly atmospheric, have high budget singleplayer campaigns, and both have a renowned history of excellent long lasting online communities.....

So choose, choooose and perish......;)

IF both games turn out to be good, I'll be all over AVP. We've seen a billion military FPS games in recent years. AVP would really be great. I still think BC2 will be great and I want to get it, but AVP just looks like a lot of fun.

Bc2 no contest..Shadowhawk000

It depends on your tastes as a gamer if you are more into single player games then I would go AVP but on the other hand if multiplayer is more your taste then I would go BFBC2. I'm guessing that AVP will have about 2 weeks playability wheras BFBC2 will have a much longer apeal.RedDanDoc

No way dude. People were playing Avp 1 and AvP2 for years after their releases specifically for its robust multi-player modes. And to all those who think rebellion Sucks,THE OXFORD TEAM WAS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ROGUE WARRIOR!

AvP!

I'm looking forward to Bad Company 2...that game is going to be awesome :D

I'm getting both but if I had to pick I would choose AvP. I'm not a huge BF fan but I do play 2142 from time to time.spiderman120988

BC2 looks like it will have the better multiplayer, and multi = replay value.

AvP does look good though, but it's being developed by Rebellion and they suck. Maybe you should just wait for reviews?

Neither, wait for the reviews first.

I REAAAALLY hope AvP turns out to be awesome. If so I can see myself playing that for a long time. And 3-way multiplayer with marines, aliens, and predators would be awesome.zomglolcats

I'll buy both, AvP mainly for the campaigns and BC 2 mainly for the mp.
