Alien Vs Predator on Atari Jaguar retro games console

[guv859]

"Slow, nothing much happened for a lot of the time...". Sounds a lot like Edge magazine, to be honest. It can have some great articles, but it can also be dull and right up its own backside.

I would have loved a game like this back in the day, and it looks great for its time.

[SteveBenway]

@guv859 Yes, I used to read Edge. I bought it from issue #1 for several years, but then it, like you said, crawled up its own arse.

[CapnCrossbones]

It was strange this console came out after 3DO and it was not as good

[lentzquest]

Way to go out in a blaze of glory. You even managed to get your final attacker.

[chrisarcade]

this is the best Atari Jaguar game!! I have this and a few others

[GamingWithStatoke]

Suspence in games that old doesn't work

[AGWhiteman]

@GamingWithStatoke Unreal Tournament makes me feel sick so do Golden eye. XYBOTS and AVP are ok though!

[xoen6]

i can hear very nice voice in that vid.

[CLeRKSfan4life]

I've tried so hard to like this game but I just can't. It's suspenseful to most people, slow, boring and tedious to me. I still own the game as it's probably the Jaguar's biggest success (Being one of only a few killer apps and showing off a lot of the Jaguar's power), so it's worth having.

[Lightf00t1]

I remember reading a review of this in Edge in 1994 and creaming my pants at the visuals. They don't look so hot now! lol Still, not that bad considering 15 years have passed; still looks better than many PS1 games from the late 90s.

[conflictcommando]

not to be rude but, what does "creaming my pants" mean?

[Lightf00t1]

Ejaculating in one's underwear. wot wot wot.

[johnjay6370]

I have this game and back in 1994 this game and doom for the Jag were the best. The 3d0 could not to FPS as well as the Jag. Atari should of pushed more FPS games because the Jag was much better at those type of games then the 3do.

[GreenSmog17]

wow this game looks boring

[aznjohn15]

no AvP on jag was the KILLER APP

[KieranD212]

pc version is better but hey a decent game on the jag well i never!

[SteveBenway]

The PC game came somewhat later, so they had time to refine it, not to mention superior hardware.

[KieranD212]

well that kinda makes sense they had more time to tweak it

[believableliar]

Thepulse rifle was in the air ducts. The flame thrower was in a really hard to get room, i remember. The last gun, i forgot where it was, I do remember the banana code that gave you all the weapons at the beginning.

[homer4556]

it may of been superior to the snes.

But the super nes sold more and had games like street fighter and this one.

Would,nt this be cool if this look like the pc version AVP

[whereswaldo22]

um to need to say badly i suck more i can not find the pluse rifle where is it

[Bozzdawg1]

I just picked this up on Ebay and never would have come to the decision to buy it if not for you, bless you sir!!

[SteveBenway]

Glad to be of service. I hope you enjoy it :)

[Bozzdawg1]

So what systems do you have in your collection?

[SteveBenway]

Far too many to list here, but if you go to my channel page, the main featured video is of my collection.

[FuzzyDaKirbyFan]

tempus 2000 is the jag game

[SteveBenway]

Tempest 2000 is certainly a great game, it just doesn't command such a high price on ebay, as it's easier to find.

[BlackMesaTrainee]

did you manage to finish this game???

me not, it's very hard.

[SteveBenway]

No, I only played it for the duration of the video.

It's one of many I'll come back to when I get the time, though having several web based projects on the go, time is in rather short supply.

[whereswaldo22]

hey if u ever find a better gun in this game plz tell me where it is at cause when i play it i always get stuck with the shotgun

[wolframf]

I would like to see more of this game, if you could make another video it would be great.

thanks!

[DeanoTheLegend87]

Is it just the enviroment that's 3D?

The Aliens look like simple 2D Sprites.

[SteveBenway]

Yeah, I think it's only the walls that are 3D. Everything else appears to be sprites, much the same as Doom.

[bobmarleyluke]

does look alot like Doom, but i dont suppose that can ever be a bad thing, and steve we need more megadrive reivews the fate of humanity rests on you...

[SteveBenway]

Sorry, I've recorded and uploaded all of the Megadrive games in my collection, so until I buy more, the fate of humanity looks very shaky... lol.

[bobmarleyluke]

but your collection is huge, well consoles at least thought you would have a huge megadrive collection with it being the greatest console ever created and all lol

[londonkaleb2]

a poor mans doom?

[Rockythefishman]

This is alway talked about as being the best jag game. It never playied very well when I used to play it

[kyotoair]

looks like the jaguar tried to win the console wars by adding more buttons and give the system less graphics. of what i can see, it looks sometime worse than the 16 bit SNES!!

what a failure of a 64bit console....

[SteveBenway]

Hmm.

Well, I agree that the Jaguar isn't all that it could or should have been, but really, it's still a technically superior system to the snes.

[kyotoair]

yupp, your right about that.
