A Chestburster emerges and evolves into an alien. These contain Facehuggers which can impregnate any other living creature apart from other aliens. Essentially, you start with a Queen in most missions which you can command to lay eggs. I have to say this is by far the most interesting species to play as. So the first missions I played were the Alien missions. It tells you all the strengths and weaknesses of each unit as well as other characteristics. There’s also extensive information on each unit which you can access when you’re in a mission. There’s a tutorial mode where you can learn about each species which is quite useful. There’s plenty of game help for first-time players too. If you complete all the objectives in each mission within the target time, you’ll get a gold medal next to the mission in the main menu… I guess this is where replayability comes in. There’s also a target time you can do it in. Each mission has at least one objective and also an optional objective. Same for most Marine and Predator missions. Most of the Alien missions took me well over an hour to complete. You can play as either the Marines, Aliens or Predators and there’s seven missions for each species.

So, AvP Extinction is a real-time strategy game that came out for X-Box and Playstation 2 in 2003. I bought it on ebay and I found out it’s actually a decent game. Ever since then, I’ve had such a negative opinion of it… up until now. I rented it and didn’t like it very much. I remember when AvP Extinction came out way back in 2003.
