Alien Vs Predator 3 (Preview trailer released, half a second of gameplay!!!) - Games

I've pre-ordered it from play so I get 3 skins, also does anyone know why it's called Aliens Vs Predator and no Aliens Vs Predator 3??

Reboot to the game franchise maybe?

It puts me off a bit, but at the same time it sorta goes with the movies, although in the movies I thought the predator was emitting those sounds from himself, not from a remote location.

[QUOTE=Melon_Mapper;19886658]I've pre-ordered it from play so I get 3 skins, also does anyone know why it's called Aliens Vs Predator and no Aliens Vs Predator 3??[/QUOTE] Because when they make sequels to old games they usually do that. And probably because of the movies. Everyone will call it AvP3 anyway.

and possibly due to the original 2 weren't on current or last consoles so less confusion.

I love how this game has full body awareness. You can see in the Predator trailer there how the rest of your body is visible when the player does a jump.

[QUOTE=Pinut;19886874]and when you spin around as alien you can see your tail :iia:.[/QUOTE] And you can get knocked down as a marine and have to fight off aliens with a pistol.

is there a date for this or am i being blind?

you are being blind, 19th of feb, at least for UK, not sure about everywhere else but it should be 1 or 2 pages back :)

Predalien is gonna be so bad ass

[QUOTE=fylth;19887993]you are being blind, 19th of feb, at least for UK, not sure about everywhere else but it should be 1 or 2 pages back :)[/QUOTE]Its 19th in US too, at least for steam it is. (Is steam in the UK? Probably not.)

[QUOTE=solid_jake;19888021]Predalien is gonna be so bad ass[/QUOTE] It will be badass to watch. You can't play as it. But, for SOME strange reason, you can play as the Praetorian, which is basically the same size, if not larger.

[QUOTE=MutantBadger;19888263]Its 19th in US too, at least for steam it is. (Is steam in the UK? Probably not.)[/QUOTE] For me its Feb 16'th. And I'm in the US

[QUOTE=Themage;19888707]For me its Feb 16'th. And I'm in the US[/QUOTE]Oh what do ya know? Steam changed it too, and it was 19th a couple days ago... But who am I to complain?

For me it was always the 16'th, Maybe it got confused about you're location?

[QUOTE=KigJow;19888491]It will be badass to watch. You can't play as it. But, for SOME strange reason, you can play as the Praetorian, which is basically the same size, if not larger.[/QUOTE] I can't find anything about playing as the praetorian in avp3, probably because of all the results from avp1 and 2 that come up when I try to search. This is confirmed though? It's weird, it doesn't seem like something the rebellion team would do. I mean I know it's supposedly just a skin, but they seem to be purists. Also, fingers crossed for a demo tomorrow.

What different alien like species/classes can you play?

[QUOTE=KigJow;19851504]That's basically my complaint. The Praetorians are elite Aliens that can't crawl on walls, and are larger than the average Alien. Runners are the fastest Aliens, and are weaker than Drones. How they can keep that inside of one side is beyond me, but hopefully they will find some way to balance it out.[/QUOTE] It was balanced just fine in AVP 1&2...

[QUOTE=Melon_Mapper;19893988]What different alien like species/classes can you play?[/QUOTE] No classes

I want this game :'C

[QUOTE=_Mythic;19894814]No classes[/QUOTE] Well I mean like the predalien ? are there any others like that?, what about marines are there classes for them?

[url]http://www.avpgalaxy.net/2010/01/28/avp-demo-on-the-way/[/url] Bam, Demo on the way and it'll be online. And yeah, the voice throwing seems...off. I'd rather you threw a small recorder or something, it'd be more believable.

Ow they didn't give a date. Well I suppose it'll be 1-2 february. Maybe later.

[QUOTE=cyclocius;19895357]And yeah, the voice throwing seems...off. I'd rather you threw a small recorder or something, it'd be more believable.[/QUOTE] Well, in Predator: Concrete Jungle you could do the same thing so I don't think they're ever going to explain how a predator does that.

It goes without saying that the predator is technologically superior to humans. See where I'm going with this?

Guys, I just want to confirm something, will the upcoming demo be for the PC other than the Xbox360 and PS3?

[QUOTE=Linkage;19895408]I know people who can throw their voices, without any electronics. It goes without saying that the predator is technologically superior to humans. See where I'm going with this?[/QUOTE] I do, but it just looks....I don't know honestly, it just seems silly. I won't complain about it once I'm playing, but right now, it feels a bit out of place.
