Game News - A New, Portable Aliens vs. Predator

   While waiting for those two pure-blooded Alien games announced by SEGA last winter, PSP owners will be able to ease their agony with a new game from the Aliens vs. Predator series. It will be published by Sierra and, although they didn't specify the game's title so far, we can expect it to be identical to the upcoming movie it's based on - namely "Aliens/Predator", from Twentieth Century Fox. The movie will premiere this December 25, and the game's release is planned for the same period.

   This time, however, the only role set forth for us will be that of a sole Predator, armed with his well-known exotic arsenal and technologies, spiced up with some new, equally futuristic weapons. The real novelty will be an "honour points" system, which will evaluate the players' success based on how closely they adhere to the Predator's value system. And the higher the honour achievement, the more weapon and armor upgrades available to the player. Other stuff about the game, below:
"The game will give access to advanced technologies with the Predator's wrist computer including Pred-tech/thermal vision modes and cloaking, to track, stalk and annihilate both humans and Aliens. Both classic and completely new futuristic weapons such as wrist blades, laser trip mines and dual shoulder cannons will give players the ability to eradicate all traces of the Alien race."    Aliens/Predator will also offer a co-op multiplayer mode, in which several human-controlled Predators will put their fierceness to the test, as they attempt to withstand hordes of attacking Aliens. The game's development has been entrusted to Rebellion, who are also working on another PSP game based on a famous sci-fi universe - Star Wars Battlefront: Renegade Squadron - planned for October.
