Aliens vs. Predator is a Shooting game available on the 360. It can be played in Singleplayer modes.

Aliens vs. Predator is a Shooting game. Shooting games present a world in which the character must shoot their way out of dangerous situations. They provide the player with an array of weapons tailored to specific tasks. This unavoidably involves a combination of fisticuffs and gun based fighting that dictates the violent nature of these experiences. Beneath this harsh exterior though is often an intricate tactile game - and this is usually what drives the player.

Aliens vs. Predator can be played in a Singleplayer mode. Single Player Campaign games focus on one player's experience. Rather than collaborate with other players either locally or online, players progress alone. The campaign style of gameplay offers a connected series of challenges to play through. These chapters work together to tell a story through which players progress. Single player games are able to focus on one experience of a scenario, so that it is usually a richer, more visceral game.

Movie Gamer review Wed, 17 Aug 2011

Aliens vs. Predator 360 is a semi-sequel to a comic adaptation of a film, and this identity confusion is evident throughout the game. The terror of playing as the hunted is underused, and the chance to actually play as the monsters is disappointing.

Both the Alien and Predator have suffered for having their mystery removed. If we're scared of what we don't know, then the original Alien movie concocted a great horror conceit: because of the Alien's lifecycle, we don't know what it will look like the next time we see it, and therefore are constantly unsure of what to expect.

Faithful Gamer review Fri, 29 May 2009

Aliens vs Predator let's you walk in another man's shoes - or in fact another race's footwear. Throwing you into battle from the viewpoint of the marines, aliens and predators the seemingly short storyline is a joy to play through - and got me wondering if our differences can ever be resolved peacefully.

Aliens vs Predator on 360, PS3 or PC is like having two of your all-time heroes getting together for a project, you just expect that their respective greatness will join up and create something truly spectacular. There have been Aliens vs Predator games before. I thought they were OK but not wonderful. If I'm honest I really struggled with working out what I was supposed to be doing whenever I played as an Alien and that sort of coloured my opinion. Now though, there's another chance to make the game work and it has the benefit of much more powerful hardware.
