A mighty arsenal is thrown at you in all categories, but you will rarely feel better than merely safe (perhaps as the Predator). That is where Sierra crucially got things right with this game! This feels like being in a blend of Alien and Aliens, and you will feel fear, no matter the species you choose, for yes, this is a three-scenario game: one as a human marine, one as a predator, one as an alien, and all threads interweave several times. In the early Alien and first Predator films, we have not just great monsters, but master directors conjuring a perfect atmosphere. The Predator is a worthy challenger, showcased in one of the greatest sci-fi action films ever made.

How could you get those so wrong and this so right? First things first, the Alien series is perhaps the finest adult science-fiction series in existence, a visionary horror saga that plays on our Lovecraftian fears of the cosmic unknown and delivers the greatest monster of all time.

It might seem weird to review a video game on a film site, but this is a very particular case: first, the source medium is not one but two series of films, and second, attempts to follow the present product in film form have been undisputed disasters.
