So yea i'm pretty intrigued with the premise and i quite liked the movies and all, never played the original but still since its on sale just wanted to know from folks here is it worth a fiver or just another generic run gun spray pray shooter. I mean is there some story to it or is it just the gore the USP here ?

The game isnt really that good but its worth $5. I would spend the money on AVP2 though or AVP1 especially if you havent played them, they are a lot better games than that new one.

The game is fine, its fun and its well worth $5, I got it for $20 and didn't regret it.

Were the first two games better, yeah FOR THEIR TIME, I would play the new one again before I go back and play those.

The first 2 were great, but if you have already played them, or want something newer and love Aliens, or Predator, then it will be a worth while purchase for $5.

I think the Marine SP campaign alone is worth the 5 bucks.

I don't think so. It has a terrible memory leak and while i can start off playing it ~25-30fps, after about 30-45 minutes it drops to about 15fps.

Didn't have that problem. I got pretty consistant performance all the way through Maxed out in DX11. Usually between 45-60fps. It may have been patched, or drivers could of helped.. Don't know, but it wasn't at all bad for my GTX570, once Nvidia finally put out decent drivers for it.

Of course there were occasional hiccups, but only lasting a few seconds or so.

Just a tad off topic, but is there anywhere I can buy AVP2 digitally?

The monster campaigns are really awesome. The marine campaign is Doom 3 with aliens and not so great weapons. Game looks very good and runs like a charm on DX11. Go buy it.

I think its worth $5 for the alien campaign alone. Its very unique and I have never played anything quite like it. I didnt really like the other 2 campaigns though.

It's a decent game well worth the $5 if you're interested in it. I played through it on PS3 and thought it was pretty good.

Yes it's worth 5 bucks. Not the greatest game but worth 5 bucks easy. I liked the Marine part...

I liked it. I love the sound effects, the pulse rifle and alien screams sound so perfect.

If you're not an Alien fan, then no. I barely just got into the series and this one isn't so good. It's like Warhammer: Space Marine. If you're not a die-hard fan, then don't bother.
