  • Summary: In Predator: Concrete Jungle, you become the Predator who hunts the Earth for criminals using superhuman powers, different vision modes, and an array of alien weaponry. The tale of the alien's history on the Earth unfolds between two separate time periods (in the 1930s and in 2030) as you seek revenge upon an organized crime empire. To successfully complete your missions, you must master cloaking technology and extraterrestrial weapons, including wristblades, plasmacaster, combistick, speargun, and smart disk. Expand

  1. People have complained up and down about the story, and that's fine, but anyone who has followed the comic books knows what is going on without a problem.
  2. Predator: Concrete Jungle does a fair job of putting a console face on the galactic big game hunter as well as offering some genuinely fun moments, but unfortunately the linearity, ropey camera and basic fighting mechanics don't make for a particularly long lasting experience.
  3. Sadly the graphics are what lets the game down and to non fans will appear to be a basic no frills run of the mill game.
  4. What could have been an awesome Predator game is actually one ugly motherf***er. [July 2005, p.111]

    Good Points: Excellent presentation , good graphics / sound. Decent storyline. Bad Points: Camera position sometimes makes it difficult to see whats going on. Conclusion: If you like the films you shouldn't be disapointed. Expand

    I'd rather re-watch the original movies and the recent AvP over again than continue playing this sorry game. The controls are abyssmal, there's no stealth component to a storyline about a stealthy killing machine, the nice CGI story-cuts suggest much more interesting possibilities than the game offers (why couldn't we have had a "survival on the exile world level" instead of just seeing the cut scene with a hint of what the Predator struggled with, for example?) and the contrived storyline of a future gone wrong is mostly there just to create lots of mooks for the Predator to fight who have predator-like abilities; but the game ends up being more like "Legacy of Kain meets Contra X" more than what it should have been: imagine a Predator game modelled after RE4 or Project Snowblind. That would have been great. Younger fans can probably enjoy this game; but if you were a teenager when the first Predator came out like me, avoid this half-hearted effort to cash in on the license.
