Alien Vs. Predator for the Atari Jaguar

Alien Vs. Predator by Rebellion (MobyGames entry, Wikipedia entry, Atari Age entry) is the best game to ever grace the 64-bit(-ish) Atari Jaguar, and a brilliant horror FPS. Actually, it's the first FPS to allow for 3 distinctly different game experiences, as players get to battle through its 3D gloomy environments as either a marine, an Alien or even an all-powerful Predator.

Unfortunately as AvP is one of the (admittedly few) reasons to own a Jaguar, people tend to stick with it. The game is thus quite rare. Then again, it's just hit ebay at what seems like a decent price, especially for a new & sealed game box. Click to see the Alien Vs. Predator auction. Seller ships worldwide.

  5. 'Twas the cat Elderly. Dont worry...

    And if I may say so dear Father the Alien is also severly lacking in the missile weapons department. The Predator on the other hand... Ah, yes.. BTW, have you tried the (way more advanced) PC version ov AvP?
