Aliens vs. Predator 2 single-player demo

Editors' ReviewDownload.com staffFebruary 29, 2024There are a lot of quality first-person-shooter games out there to choose from, but few can claim the sheer scare power of this series. Aliens vs. Predator 2 lets you play as one of three characters: a humanoid Marine, the Alien, or the Predator. Each has its own distinctive traits, but once you're feeling your way through the dark, creepy tunnels of this game, you ll see that no special attributes make it easier on your nerves. The graphics are great. Though much of the time is spent in the dark in this demo, what you do see amidst the flashing security lights and the light of your gunfire is fantastic. The sound will remind you of the movies that inspired the game, from the intermittent blip of the scanner that picks up aliens to the scampering, metallic-like sound of the aliens themselves as they stalk you. You have several cool-looking weapons to choose from that are different depending on which character you choose. Warning: This game is definitely not for kids or for anyone who scares easily, and the violence of this game is not for the thin-skinned. With that in mind, Aliens vs. Predator 2 rivals most FPS games of its generation, and with the undeniable fear factor, you may want to leave the lights on. Note: This is a very large file (158MB), which may take several hours to download via modem.
