Back when asymmetrical shooters were still finding their feet, Aliens Versus Predator Classic 2000 set out its stall with three distinct campaigns and a heavy dose of film atmosphere. It sits in the same lineage as early PC sci fi FPS staples, competing on tension and variety rather than modern progression systems. If you like your shooters a bit rough around the edges but rich in mood, this is the sort of archive pick that still has teeth.
Who is this for?
Anyone curious about where the AvP games came from, or players who enjoy switching perspectives to change the whole pace of a level. The Colonial Marine route leans into motion tracker paranoia and limited visibility, the Alien campaign is faster and more vertical, and the Predator run is about stalking with gadgets and stealth. Expect old school controls and presentation, but also a surprisingly strong sense of place.
- Three separate storylines, each with its own playstyle and weapons
- Steam version, useful for modern library management and installs
