10 Horror Video Games That Let YOU Be The Killer
3. Aliens Vs. Predator
Alien vs. Predator gets a hard rap no matter what medium its in.
Offering up the simple pleasures of big ass monsters fighting each other to the detriment of all nearby humans, turning off your brain and digging into the silliness is half the fun. Thankfully, Aliens vs. Predator happily buys into that conceit in this horror influenced shooter.
Of course, the game lets you play as any one of the three species caught in the crossfire of their interplanetary wars, with humans, xenomorphs, and yautja all on the cards for personalised playthroughs. The beauty of this concept for this title is that the marines, aliens, and predators are all killers to each other, meaning any one of the choices you pick to play as fits the bill for a murderous adventure through terrifying scenarios.
It's kind of like rock paper scissors, just with giant hulking monsters instead of stationary. Which is the far more interesting version of the two, at least.
