In the all-new Aliens vs. Predator players will have the chance to take the role of the three infamous species; the Colonial Marine, the Predator and the Alien.
Please note: Videos require Macromedia Flash Player 7 or higher
The Weyland-Yutani archaeological survey team assigned to Freya’s Prospect on planet BG-386 has inadvertently unearthed something only the bio-weapons division team shadowing them hoped they would find. A centuries-dormant, deadly, parasitic life form is awakened and starts to slaughter the colony.
A hardened team of United States Colonial Marines are dispatched on a mission of rescue, containment and search and destroy, while a distress call alerts an ancient race of hunters that their lost world has been discovered, and must be protected.
- Play as Marine, Alien and Predator – A unique mix of three game mechanics. The three species bring a unique feel to each facet of the single player game, creating three distinctly different campaign modes, providing diversity and higher perceived customer value.
- Three species in unique 3-way multiplayer – A classic, defining event in multiplayer returns for a new audience in a series of asymmetrical game modes pitting the various strengths and weaknesses of each species against each other. Squads, swarms and lone hunters battle for survival and the right to be crowned the deadliest species.

i played this and it is probably one of the best games in terms of first person shooter titles.
the most fun in my opinion is playing as the marine. the intense, sh*t your pants feeling is always present and I don't think there is a fps game that can top the amount of fear you get when playing this game.

For Begginners like me -
There are 3 Campaigns where in each one you get to be an Alient - Marine and the Predators and play the game.
In terms of gameplay, the most is currently known about the Predator. As in the films, the Predator prefers to stalk its prey from the safety of treetops and the gameplay reflects this, the player leaping from branch to branch automatically with the help of a "focus jumping" game mechanic.
The Alien campaign will force players to get in close to their enemy as their only methods of attack are physical: the Aliens' claws, tail and inner and outer jaws. Aliens live in the shadows and use senses other than sight to locate their prey, which is why the Predator’s cloak is useless against them, and this, OXM suggests, would imply stealth tactics similar to the Predator’s campaign, getting players to search for dark areas to hide the black alien in.
The Colonial Marine campaign is to be far closer to that of a standard first-person shooter. Confirmed weapons are the "iconic" Pulse Rifle and Smart Gun, along with an image intensifier to light up dark areas and the motion tracker made famous in Aliens. The key to the marine campaign is "the sheer terror of facing off against the two movie menaces of the title."
There is also a Hunter's Edition then to a normal game - the Hunters edition game pack gives you a Alien Face Hugger - a graphic novel - four extra multiplayer map pack - a weyland Yutani sleeve badge.
