Yet one more ace up the Alien’s scaly sleeve is its ability to spot pheromones given off by each species, rendering the Predator’s cloaking useless. As far as the campaign goes, the Alien’s has to be one of the most creative, letting you take control as a newly hatched facehugger in search of an unwary victim, then later involving you in the chest-bursting process itself before you pupate into a fully-grown alien drone. As the Alien you can climb walls with lightning speed or plunge at a distant target with easy, but you’re completely limited to melee attacks. The Alien is by far the fastest and most mobile of the three. Monolith took special note to make this sequel more accessible, and as such offered a permanent savegame feature (disabled on the highest difficulty level), thus fixing a key aggravation present in the first game. Lots of refurbishing went into level design, and boy does it ever show! As opposed to the first game, AvsP 2 is much more script-heavy in offering a more cinematic experience and a progressive story at the cost of replay value. You’ll have a chance to play as any one of these three distinct races, in any order, as part of the game’s twenty-one mission singleplayer portion. Among the carnage you’ll find the Predators, an ancient race of tribal hunters that use high-tech gadgetry to pursue their goals. As expected, things go terribly wrong when an infestation goes out of control and leaves the ill-fated inhabitants nearly defenseless. Fans will remember this is not the same planet featured in the first two Alien movies, but then again it’s not all that different either.

The action takes place on LV-1201, a bleak, stormy planet inhabited by a contingent of marines and scientists doing their corporate-sponsored research on Xenomorphs.
