 DON'T EVEN BOTHER !, 2008-01-17
No support, the multiplayer locks in a spinning wheel as it searches for something not there. Macplay tricked people into thinking it would be fixed and just never bothered. Horrid consumer relations. Buy anything else but done waste a dime on this.
Doesn't work on Leopard!, 2007-12-31
This is a cool game, but if you've got Leopard, it won't work. Furthermore, MacPlay, if you contact them for support, will send you a lame auto-reply "Out of office" e-mail saying, "We are aware that there are issues regarding many titles not functioning correctly in the Leopard operating system. Unfortunately at this time, we are unable to provide support on any of our MacPlay titles." If that's not the lamest excuse I've ever heard...
On the bright side, Aliens vs. Predator 1 does work! Go figure...
 Available at MacPlay for $1.88, 2005-09-08
I just wanted to let folks know that this game is now (as of this date) available at MacPlay for $1.88. But be aware of the high shipping cost.
Be Un-Warned: This game works great on G5 iMacs!, 2005-05-05
I'm sure that many people have already read the reviews for this game that say that it works so terribly on this or that Mac. But I'm here, as a sort of public service announcement, to say that with the new Macs, those concerns no longer apply. I had a rougher time with AVP1 Gold running on my Mac than this game! All that aside, this is an incredible game, one of the best FPS games ever created, and very addictive. I beat all three campaigns on Normal, and now I'm trying to beat them all on Hard. Huge difference!
That also being said, I have to mention that the multiplayer STILL doesn't work. As a matter of fact, it freezes up the game if you ever try to go to the multiplayer screen. And this is even with that (very old) patch from Macplay. Which can ONLY be found on their website, by the way. It's not even in Fileplanet! Despite the impossibility of playing multiplayer, I still give this five out of five stars because the game is challenging, loads of fun, scary, and you can really get into your species' state of mind. I can't even tell you how many times I was yelling at the screen when I was the Aliens, saying something like 'BITE HIS HEAD OFF!!!' It's a lot of fun. So buy it!!! It's worth it.

 Just like the movies!, 2004-12-27
Even reading all the bad reviews I bought this game. I held my breath when I popped it into my eMac. Things didn't start out good as the game wouldn't install to my brand new external drive. I installed in to the internal drive and started up the game. I chose to be a Predator and the hunt began. I was immediatly awed by how alike it was to the movies. All the preformance issures people had warned about weren't a factor. It ran smooth as anything. I then en-trusted the next 3 hours to getting through the Predator campaign. The game was a blast and I felt like I was in the movies.
