    Alien Breed offers fans much more than just a re-release. With an updated version of the game, online co-op, cross play between the PS3 and Vita and universal level and gun unlocks, players can enjoy the game in just about any way they want. If you’ve never played the game before it’s probably not the best use of your money, but fans will enjoy the ability to relive their memories while also creating new ones.

    Simple as it may be, Alien Breed isn’t unenjoyable. It’s a bit easy and straightforward, sure, but it’s also a very good update of an Amiga classic. You run through corridors, shoot everything that moves, pick up all the goodies, then make a run for the exit to do it all over again. There’s no denying that Alien Breed is pretty mindless, but sometimes a bit of brain-dead xenomorph extermination is a nice way to kill an hour.

    Alien Breed is a solid twin stick shooter that, while not providing the challenge of the game on which it’s based, is a great game to play when you have a few minutes to spare, perfect for those looking to take down the alien menace on the go.

    The enhanced visuals and local and online co-operative multiplayer are welcome additions, but everything else feels a little bit outdated, with a distinct lack of variety in enemies and objectives in particular making the levels bland and monotonous by today's standards.

    It's a great classic title with a little refreshed look (You can turn on classic look... uhh :D). I played Alien Breed in 1993 on PC, and it was really addictive. This one is addictive too You got here:
    - Classic Alien Breed from 1991,
    - Alien Breed Special Edition,
    - 2 Mission Packs
    And, a co-op mode, for 2 players. You can play with PSV and PS3 versions. This title even got cloud! you can export save and import them on PS3 and vice versa. And, we got Cross-Buy here! :)
    If you like classic shooters, it's a must have!
