AvP may have been a fun game, but apart from bearing its name, and trying to look a bit like it, it had NOTHING to do with Aliens, i stand 100% behind Shakken on that.
AvP totally compomised the theme in the name of gameplay, and yes, that is a bad thing, they should have made the gameplay acordingly to the theme, not distort the theme inorder to favour a seartain form of gameplay.
When you buy a Starwars themed game, what do you want from it? you want Starwars! AvP was fun, and im sure AvP2 will be aswell, but its not Alien, i want Alien!
