From the most horrific corners of the galaxy to the most entertaining set of games ever made by man.

Alien and Predator, two very distinct extraterrestrial species that come from completely different sides of the galaxy, and yet they have formed an unlikely rivalry that makes perfect sense and has spanned decades ever since a small easter egg showed up inside Predator 2.

Both species have proven themselves as some of the most horrifying and efficient human slayers ever seen on the silver screen. Both have fought and lost in deadly battles against the most badass men and women earth could produce, sparing humanity briefly from the ravages of face-huggers and the trophy walls of the Predator species.

While humanity has been torn to shreds repeatedly on screen in an unlikely box-office rivalry that included two decent crossover films, the Aliens and Predators have been in a brutal competition in the realm of video games for even longer. From full-on Pac Man ripoffs to fully detailed fighting games, the deadliest alien species ever birthed by the black void of space have fought each other over the span of decades for their rightful spot at the top of the pile of skulls.

In the no longer distant future of 2030, the mobsters of New Way City have gained advanced technological capabilities of the deadly humanoid race known only as the Predators. At the height of gang warfare and a mafia family's power, their long-forgotten enemy from almost 100 years in the past returns to get his revenge on every mafia man and musclebound human shouting for others to get into their helicopters.

The 2005 third-person Predator simulator arms the player with advanced hunter species technology, as they cloaked, jumped, plasma shot, and decapitated their way through gangbangers and mobsters to exact revenge as the aptly described Predator known as 'Scarface'.

As Scarface, players could decide to be methodical and hunt only those that deserved to be hunted, or slaughter every puny human that got in their way. The game reviewed very poorly due to everything from bad plot to clunky controls, however, it is a massive fan-favorite for being the solo fist third-person Predator game.
