The Bottom Line:
"Disappointing"
In almost every aspect Alien versus Predator two was a blast from start to finish, and it made you glad you put in the effort to play it. The expansion pack from a year later how ever is none of the greatness that it's mother game delivered. The expansion is better left alone, so unless you picked it up for free as a had-me-down from a friend, or found it laying the dumpster, stat away.

Much like the game that this originates from, you can play as an alien, human, or predator. However unlike like the original this has none of the flare that the original offered. At best primal hunt is a boring retread of the original title, and really feels like it could have been a short leg in the original. In other words this little expansion pack feels like. more of a piece that was left out of the original then a whole new experience. Throw in the flaws of being too short, as well as lacking any sense of accomplishment at the end, and you have a game play that just plain hurts. The graphics and sound are pretty much the same as the original, which though is not a bad thing it just adds to the over blandness of the expansion pack. Having some better graphics over the original might have helped spruce up this little title some.

With it's over baring set of flaws, stupidly hard missions, confusing level set up, and just plain blandness this game struggles to make an average score. There is nothing in this game worth making it a good playing experience over the original, and overall you feel that your time has been wasted. Any good points that this title could have had are shrouded by it's lack of anything new, and lacking substance. Overall even if you are a die-hard fan of the Alien versus Predator series you aren't going to find much to adore about this title. All but the most hard core "fan boys" should steer clear of this title unless it's a gift, and even then you might want to consider tossing it instead of suffering through it.
