Original Aliens vs. Predator to Return [Jan 15, 2010, 10:34 am ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
IGN has word that Rebellion plans to release the original version of Aliens vs. Predator on Steam as they work on the upcoming follow-up to the 1999 science-fiction shooter. They say the game will ship with only the single-player mode at a bargain price, with multiplayer support to follow in a free patch. Rebellion CEO Jason Kingsley says: "It'll be very cheap – and it shows it's [sic] age a little bit, but it is frightening and it is difficult. We will in due course fix up the multiplayer – and we'll make sure it's a free download."
When I first played through years ago I started with the Marine campaign because I loved the "spook" factor that the demo gave a healthy taste of. An atmosphere of dread and hopelessness pearmeates each level and you never truly feel safe or unexposed, which to me is EXACTLY why it was so terrifying progessing through the levels. And even once you get to the end of a level you can't really relax because you know the next level will likely be worse!
Unfortunately, I just can't convince myself that they'll be able to create as terrifying an experience with this next one, but I definitely won't be disappointed if I'm proven very wrong ;).
