Aliens Vs. Predator is retardedly bad ass so far. Getting some bad reviews because Modern Warfare 2 and Halo 3 set a standard in FPS games but this doesn't PLAY like a FPS game. If you played the original PC games, this one is everything you wish had been in the originals and then some. Predator is glass cannon stealth mode, Alien is fast paced melee, Marine is paranoid survival horror-ish.
Give it a try, it rocks.
Additionally, the standard set by H3 and MW2 is irritating. While those are good games, Gamefly.com user ratings has The Orange Box ranked down to an 8.2 because it doesn't have aiming down the sights and gimmicks from H3 and MW2. The average retard glosses over The Orange Box's deep gameplay because it doesn't have the gimmicks of the more popular titles.
For my money, The Orange Box is hands down one of the BEST purchases you can make for an Xbox 360, PC or PS3. 5 games for one price? Not only 5 games but 5 games that all had critic meta reviews 80% and over. Anyhow enough tangent on The Orange Box.Go buy or rent Aliens Vs. Predator and give it a fair shake, don't let the semi-complex controls throw you off, it has a lot of abilities it needs to slam onto your buttons, once you start to master them it becomes smooth and extremely satisfying. Nothing quite like rolling into a multiplayer death match and getting cornered by an alien on your puny marine goob only to end up curb stomping the big bad because you batted his claws away, punched him right in his dick-mouth and threw down some pulse rifle fire right up his gooch pipe.
Go, Play, Enjoy, Nerd Out.
