I remember downloading the marine demo from Gamespy as a kid back in '99. When the Gold edition launched in a massive cardboard box with an included strategy guide, I remember buying it from Currys before running home and eagerly installing it.
Played with friends doing co-op skirmish over direct dial-up (having a modem ring your friend's modem directly) and eventually ended up joining a PvP clan online.
The marine campaign was absolutely terrifying but it was so cool being able to stalk and skulk as the xenomorph and yautja.
Only downside is the only cheats were debug-mode based and locked you from making progress or saving. Didn't matter because I eventually beat all three campaigns.
Many, many good memories with this title.

This is the absolute best Aliens vs. Predator game that was ever made. Anyone who says otherwise is usually just someone who can't wrap their head around the difficulty level. It's a survival horror experience that faithfully recreates the environments and scenarios of the movies, and keeps you on edge constantly by making you feel vulnerable, and the enemies powerful. It's a very hard and fast game, where you can die very quickly, and the environment works against you, but that is what makes it feel like a tense fight for survival, and this is a quality that unfortunately future games in the series lost in an attempt to make them more easy and approachable. If you want a real horror experience, this is the Aliens vs. Predator game to play, not the other ones.

I bought it for 72 cents, and it's a nice trip down memory lane when I first played it back in 2000. It's dated, but cheap and still fun to play.

This one takes me back, A younger me played the hell out of this game pre-steam.
Playing the Alien is fun, the wall crawling mechanic was revolutionary 25 years ago, but is a little clunky by today's standards. It is a lot of fun to use that mobility paired with aggression to kill groups of human NPCs before they can react.
Playing the predator is difficult but manageable, although I felt like his cloaking mechanic should have fooled the enemies a little.
But playing the marine? Terrifying. Utterly terrifying.
You are fighting for your life, and it is probably a losing battle.

Awesome game, a lot of great memories being scared to play this as a kid. Pity this game couldn't be paired up with the squeal

It's a classic. This has a very clean look to it, hard to describe. Not clean as in, not crisp visuals necessarily, it just looks "clean". Not necessarily lacking in any excess though, given its age. I appreciate the graphical style that titles like this convey. It probably looked superior compared to almost anything on console back in those days.
Yeah, add Aliens vs Predator 2 on Steam. Do it.

This was an absolute banger 25 years ago. Hell, it still is. Few things beat the urgent beep of the motion detector or the fear of being chased by a Xenoborg or a face hugger. Good days, good days.
