Aliens vs. Predator PC Demo Released Early - briefly

The PC demo for Aliens vs. Predator has been just released on Steam. You need to register on their website in order to dowload and play the demo. To download the demo (1.2GBB) click here. Will be nice to try the demo and see if it's a crappy consoleport or not :-) The multiplayer demo gives access to all three species â€“ the Colonial Marine, the Predator and the Alien â€“ and Deathmatch mode on Refinery, one of the gameâ€™s multiplayer maps.

Jason Kingsley, CEO of Rebellion said of the demo: â€œMultiplayer was a huge part of our original AVP game back in 1999, and weâ€™ve kept the spirit of that classic experience in creating the multiplayer for our new Aliens vs Predator. With the demo now gamers can get to grips with each of the three iconic species so they can hone their skills and be ready for when the game launches and battle commences.â€
Developed by Rebellion and packing single-player campaigns for each species in addition to seven multiplayer modes, Aliens vs. Predator hits North America on February 16 and Europe come February 19, with the PC release requiring a Steam install.

Update: If you were hoping to see some DirectX 11 graphics, it's not going to happen with this demo which is DirectX 9 only.

Just realised the DX9 feature and boy does it show, the look reminds me of the original (graphically) as for the gameplay its nothing special. After all the hoopla it failed to deliver any real significant change from the original. This may lead ppl to believe the SP mode is probably shoddy, its not the first or last time spurious claims are used to entice gamers.

Consequently maybe we can expect the hardcore modding community to provide a adequate alternative, REBELLION bunch of muppets, give it to the eastern europeans or yanks !

its fun, i was hopping the didnt change it much from the original. but the dx9 dosnt make it look over the top at all.. witch is a shame. dx11 should have been supported for a demo after all its a selling point... if you see what it looks like.

Needs dedicated servers.. bad.

This is just another one of those 'scrape the bottom of the bucket' type games. Not at all interested even in the demo.

I played this demo a bit. It's pretty ordinary. I had the most fun playing as the Alien. Mouse movement feels like wading through a very viscous liquid, especially as the marine. So it's pretty hard to aim accurately in the heat of battle. The graphics are nice but not spectacular. I suppose the final release will be brimming with every dx11 post effect 'in the catalog'. I would much rather play the single player version of this, but I'll wait until the game is a bit cheaper for that.
