SEGA reveals Aliens vs Predator game,Rebellion developing

[maxy]

SEGA and Twentieth Century Fox have unveiled a brand new Alien vs. Predator game for release next year.

There's no set title, no set platforms and no gameplay details. But, excitingly, we do know Rebellion will develop. And that same studio made the very first Aliens vs. Predator game all those years ago.

"The innovative new AvP game presents an exciting opportunity for us. It represents a fantastic addition to our growing Aliens franchise and the reinvention of one of gaming's most cherished iconic titles," said SEGA West boss Naoya Tsurumi.

YES!     BE PC!  BE PC!   

AvP games  

[cool breeze]

I just checked to see if they were the ones who made AvP2, since I liked that a lot more than the first, and I see Monolith made that.

they used to be so awesome :'(

Monolith's descent towards stuff like Condemned and F.E.A.R. after making stuff like Shogo, AvP2, and No One Lives Forever is just super duper sad panda.

and looking at rebellion's most recent games, yeah magic 8 ball says  ruh-roh.

Monolith stepping into psycho horror has not worked in their favor. Condemned was awesome, because it was still mostly about atmosphere and tension, but everything else they have done these past years has felt forced and annoying. AvP2 was awesome, but then they had some of the best material around to work with*. Going from Aliens and Predators to scary girl and ghosts, that can't have been easy.


* but watch Gearbox completely miss the point and fuck everything up with their Aliens game.

avp sucks

mostly because its biased towards the predators

they always make the aliens look like stupid bugs

(instead of the perfect life forms/weapons that they are)

How do you make a game out of this?

Playing an Alien sucks, Predators are walking tanks. You can't make a story that doesn't feel like "mortal kombat"...


Make it, Space Ship -> Jungle -> Research base or something. Play as a human?

It would be scary as shit, going around a jungle...raining...dark...with aliens and predators going around. Damn.

I loved the first PC game so much.  I hope Rebellion doesn't stray too far from that formula.

if only there were some 3d AVP games off which to base a template?      

That's your answer? Doing what has been done? Why don't you get into a time machine and start playing the Gamecube too?
