    I think this is an absolute gem of horror pc games. It was also ahead of his times for graphics, in 1999 there were no other games with such environments, lightning and effects (I don't remember another rain level in fps before 1999).

    AvP 1999 was my childhood! I spent way too much time every day at the gaming clubs playing skirmishes because I didn't own a PC yet! Great memories indeed!

    The face huggers are the most creepiest enemies in the game, the way they jump out of nowhere as a jumpscare and screeches, and it's still creepy to this day, worse than the Xenomorphs.

    Your AvP games (even the latest one) were really good, I especially loved the MP and the Sound effects were spot on. I’d be very happy to see an extensive remake of the best of the series on the up and coming PS5 etc.

  • @oem42

    I had friends that couldnt complete the campaigns because it was too scary... I had an experience playing the predator campaign where i actually put my arms up in front of my face as a face hugger jumped at me
    and then there was the time I was running around a level and noticed I was interacting with the water... stopped to splash about for a bit

  • @진겜채

    When I first played this as a demo version when I was young, I was hit by a facehugger for the first time.
    Time passed, and even though I was 29 years old, I couldn't play the game only a facehugger came out, you traumatized me! :)

  • @almir1011

    When I saw the article in Croatian magazine HACKER announcing this game, I freaked out. Three campaigns, ability to play as (my favorite movie character) Predator in first person mode, fighting Aliens and having the same chilly feeling seeing them in screenshots as seeing them in the movie, it all felt too good to be true. Having no computer back then, played mostly at my friend's place on his dad's PC, I begged my dad to buy me one. When the game launched, there was a computer fair in the town and one of the PC's had AvsP demo installed, having only Predator's first mission available. Crushed couple of hours there, made me want my PC even more. So, my parents got me one, that they could afford at the time, It was Pentium I with 133 MHz, 16MB of RAM and it had no 3D accelerator at the time and 14" CRT monitor. First two games I played on it was Thief: The Dark Project and Aliens versus Predator. I was 14 in 1999, new millennia was around the corner, everything was getting right! After some time, I managed to get switch to Pentium II 233MHz and 32MB Ram with Matrox Millennium 3D card with 32MB of memory, and that thing ran my favorite games like Half-Life, Diablo 2 and Need For Speed III buttery smooth with better lighting, textures and models! I remember this being the absolute gold time of PC gaming for me, with Counter-Strike, Return to Castle Wolfenstein, Need For Speed Underground and Grand Theft Auto III, but I never stopped loving and playing AvsP Classic, not even today! Also, I enjoy AvsP 2010 a lot, I think it's the best game in the series, but Classic will always have a special place in my heart as it drove me to PC gaming. Thank you for this classic masterpiece!

    A masterpiece in gaming, worthy of a remaster - latest Unreal make over and all that jazz. The Alien campaign was a breath of fresh air for the time, and that's what I'd love to revisit the most.

    Still the greatest iteration of the movie. Actually it transcends the 1979 movie. Very hardcore, very dark and unforgiving...I don't even know if there is another game that can do this to you. Fast-paced, relentless and the sci-fi vibe just obliterates the player. Brutally handsome. Its rawness is a strength.

    This game is begging for a remake. No game since has nailed the speed and predatory feeling of playing as an alien that you get from this game. You felt like a glass cannon and that's exactly how it should be.
    Maps were interesting to navigate and the atmosphere and tone were perfectly in line with the movies
