And then with multiplayer to let them collide in the middle. "Look, you can play Doom on it!" Five years later they did the same, once more offering three campaigns, seen from the perspective of either an Alien, a Marine, or a Predator. Remember that? I remember selling the things when working at Silica, in Debenhams, on Saturdays. In 1994 developers Rebellion had released Alien vs. And all that time he had the telescope the wrong way around. Not only because it was a terrible film, but because there was something great about the two separate stories having their crossover confined to the realms of videogames.
I was slightly disappointed when the Aliens and Predator franchises made their joint appearance together on film. And as of last week, it's been updated to support multiplayer too. It's a splendid update, not only ensuring that it works on modern operating systems, but also boosting the resolutions to fit your gangly widescreen monitor. But that's not as cool a number as 2000, when the Gold version came out, which is presumably why the recently re-released version appearing on Steam clumsily calls itself, "Aliens Versus Predator Classic 2000". It is, in fairness, a glorified typewriter.
It's sneered at by the likes of Steve Jobs for its inability to have its screen touched. It's an innocent-looking Trojan laptop, a small work machine. I am scared.īut I can nonchalantly carry in a netbook. There's no room in the whole house possessing a heaving black box of hard drives and whirring fans.
This means a front room that houses no tangle of game controllers protruding from the television. In a world where everyone's something of a gamer, even if it's just a game of Farmville at lunchtime, or some Bejeweled on the mobile phone, this new friend plays none at all. I find that I'm spending an increasing amount of time in the company of another who is not a gamer. So I've got myself in something of a situation.
