    The biggest flaws with AvP: Extinction are the lack of a rotating camera, the unit micromanagement required, and the fact that there are only 21 missions in the game with no multiplayer at all... I wasn't disappointed with the game, and I don't think fans of AvP would be either.
  2. A thoughtfully designed, complex, and pretty fun game to play. Alas, a dearth of supplemental features and some flimsy presentation drag down what could have been a more solid overall package.
  3. APE is quite tactical, the control is good and it should keep fans interested, even with the fog-of-war, funnel levels, and pathfinding problems - a good RTS entry.
  4. If you can forgive the fact that this isn’t a first-person shooter, the premise is good enough, but the execution tastes like xenomorphic acid on the tongue.

    This game rocks.
  2. ill start off by saying im not a huge RTS fan . ive played star craft and C&C and some other and i just dont get into them much. this one though was kind of fun . mainly because i loved the alien missions , it was jjst fun sending in a swarm of aliens and waching them ravage every thing in there path and the differnt types you could make . loved the ravager he's like 20ft tall death machine with giant blades for hands. the marine missions kind of sucked and the predator one was just ok . its a fun game if your a aVP fan or want a decent rts game for a console .

    Its a good game but, i find the predator levels to hard and the marine levels to easy. The controls work well and the graphics look nice.But the gameplay at times this crap and you cant call it an RST game. Expand

    This game doesn't have any real strategy behind it and its just create a bunch of guys and attack the computer.
