These three basic actions, along with joystick movements, can then be combined into simple combos, offering a colorful variety of moves.Īnd moves, moves are what is so entertaining on this game. The players control their characters an eight-way joystick and three action buttons: one for long-ranged attack, one for melee, and the remaining one for jumping, with the exception of Sarge, whose jump button triggers a charged attack instead, as he can’t jump at all. These have all different stats, depending on their agility, firepower, experience and strength. Up to three players can play simultaneously, each choosing one of the four aforementioned characters. There, two US Colonial Marines, major Shaefer and lieutenant Kurosawa, making their last stand in the infested city streets team up with two Predators, a warior and a hunter, and engage on a mission to put an end to the mayhem that WY and the military brought on them. But some things just won’t go as planned and the hell breaks loose when the transported specimens break the containment and infest the largest city on the 22nd century American West Coast. As usual, Weyland-Yutani and the military wants to weaponize xenomorphs and brings them to Earth.

But what’s even more interesting about this game, though, is that it-wait for it-tells an actual story, not altogether different from the storylines of later AVP games for PCs and consoles. Predator is a surprisingly entertaining and fun to play brawler. Predator crossover or not, for there is just something so satisfying and cool on grabbing a xenomorph under its neck and slapping it like a little wh*re, that you’re going to like it anyway.Īlthough released in 1999, somewhat already past the glory days of arcades, Alien vs. It doesn’t really matter whether you are a fan of 20th Century Fox’s Alien or Predator franchise and neither does it matter whether you do condone the Alien vs. And in the case of his little gem it is no different. There is always this one thing you can be sure of no matter what, with Capcom: whatever this game you just put on is all about, if it was made by Capcom, you are going to have fun.
