**Please note that I have collected 48/50 Steam Achievements(remaining 2 are for experience and for getting 49) for this game before reading this.** Not only does this game fulfill my fantasies.... no that's about it. The game is gold, and it kills me to see these critics slander something they don't love. But good thing I don't care for critics that much. Anyone else that has followed the Alien/Predator franchise(s) like I have, and loves everything they respectfully have brought to the table, will absolutely adore this game. And people that have no clue what a Predator or a Alien is, will certainly go to H*ll, but will also get a ton of enjoyment out of this game. The single player campaign is short yes, but all 3 campaigns (1 for each of the 3 species, Alien/Marine/Predator) will take up a good portion of your days. Beating the game on Nightmare, which is no easy task to complete and deffinently not possible in just 1 day, makes those short campaigns a LOT longer. The Marine campaign gives you the eerie Doom 3 feeling when walking through dark places with Aliens rushing you from all over. The Alien campaign really justifies being called the Alien campaign. The Predator campaign makes you feel that every blaster shot is taking down one of Arnold's comrades. The multi-player REALLY is where the game is at, hands down. And for people that might say otherwise because of an imbalance between species, should try to learn how to play their species' better. Also people that don't care for Death Match(which I honestly didn't until now) might speak differently after playing a couple hours of spear-chucking/gun-blazing/tail-spiking at peoples heads. Death Match is your standard mode with the twist of 3 species. Marines can't hold their guns to the ground forever because death most often comes from above. However Mixed Species and Species Death Match modes are different than what you would think them to be. For it often drives everyone (especially marines) to huddle together to stay alive, which makes you feel like your playing Left 4 Dead... except with Aliens. Domination is your standard hold 3 points for as long as you can while holding enough skill to combat 3 different species trying to take those points from you and your team. I keep saying 3 different species because it takes skill to change your playstyle when facing off with any of the 3, plus uncommon differences from players. And for the icing on top of the cake, the reason why a majority of people bought this game, is for these 3 modes... Infestation: Everyone spawns as Colonial Marines, feeling pretty macho as a group at first. Then as your party gets dwindled away, you feel scared when an Alien comes up behind your group and two-hit kills your best group member. Hunter: Like above everyone starts as marines, but one person is selected as a Predator instead of a Alien. The key difference between this and Infestation(besides the obvious) is that when people die they aren't turned into Predators, like in Infestation you would turn into an Alien to aid your persecutor, you would re-spawn and try to kill that Predator. Also the person selected as Predator is random and every person that kills the Predator, gets the chance to be him. And note that being the Predator is the only way to get points. Survivor: 4 Colonial Marines face off against an unending horde of AI Aliens, which end up getting harder to take down the longer you live. I am a player, not a critic.Read full review

This title is a must have for any suspense lover out there and you will not be dissapointed.I can watch it over and over again!!!
I have windows seven, and my computer speed is an i5. While downloading the game i noticed it was taking forever, it was 24 hours and it still continued to download. There was a message sector where it indicated that the game would take one year to download. But how could this be i thought, i just eventually gave up, and put the game away. I hate this game, and i hate the people whom made it so complicated to download or just to have to download the info. I have owned many computers and window types. i also have about a thousand games in my collection.
This game is great. Good storyline, good gameplay and graphics, and good replayability. Keep in mind that most recent games will require the appropriate hardware for minimum playability. If your computer has the recommended processor, drive space, memory, and graphics card, you won't be disappointed.
Excellent product I love the graphics
