Exactly. Once you get the hang of the melee rock, paper and scissors system it becomes a different game almost. I need new modes now, and fast

Can't wait for survivor mode.

I'm in love with aliens that are stupid enough to run at my pulse rifle head on

It's definitely a grower... People are getting really good at the various species now, and when there are a couple of good alien players, it makes it really tense as my favoured marine. Good predator players, however, are just annoying, because it usually means instant death - even when you're face to face. The predator is the camper's best friend.

GameInformers' scores are pretty much the only ones i look at. They often have second opinions, and I guess they thought it was'nt needed here.

yeah I dont think the reviewer gets the franchises, he mentions the sound of the motion tracker destroys the atmospehere when playing as a marine!

So stealth destroys predator?

Motion tracker breaks marine?

Next hell say the alien sucks because it has no guns and running on walls is disorientating!

edit/ just read it, he does! what a noob

I take all film and game reviews with a pinch of salt. Any non physical entertainment review are open to problems with reviewers personal tastes. I remember last year ign had to remove a review of a football management game because the reviewer stated he didn't like football management games and gave the game something like a 2 out of 10.
Some of my fav films and games got very poor reviews and vice versa some that got great reviews I don't like.
Ask me to sit through that brad pit film where he ages backwards and I would run a mile but I loved pandorum and that got slated.
I usually go from demos or if it's my style of game. I just bought that dark void game because I enjoyed the demo and love the rocketeer but to others it's crap.

LOL I just read it too. OMFG! Worst reviewer ever. He sounded like a 10 year old. "It sucks" no reason given, lol what a berk.

Seriusly though I think it might get a few more lowers reviews. As a few people here have realised, the first impresion one gets of the combat is low, because it takes time to learn, more like a fighting game than a fps. People are too used to shooters like COD and halo just shooting guns and expect AvP to be the same.
Spend some time and learn the game (which reviewers are less likly to do) and you start to see it as a much better and super fun game.

How do you learn to play an on-line only demo with no tutorial? I get waxed in the first 30 seconds every time I try it, not much fun there LoL.

Getting back on subject, any news about the IL-2 360 update?
