Superstars Samuel L. Jackson and Bernie Mac are “Soul Men” – the hilarious story of Louis (Samuel L. Jackson) and Floyd (Bernie Mac), a popular singing duo back in the day, who went their separate ways and never spoke again. When the death of their former group leader (John Legend) reunites them and sends them driving cross country for a tribute concert at the legendary Apollo Theatre, they will have only five days to bury the hatchet on a twenty-year-old grudge.

@TheSporrow
just bought the hunter edition for 30
This game does deserve 5.5 mainly because, compared to avp2, it just has a new energy system for preds, an assasination mechanic, new graphics and a sniper rifle. Oh yeah and i forgot the 6 maps that are all jungles except for refinery.

15 bucks on steam for a game thats worth max 30$… Hmmmm
@PSZeroRoxas15 its only £3 on steam at the moment
@Texy88 I dig it, kind of sux that onlines pretty much dead but i really enjoy its campaigns!
if i don’t get this game for christmas i’m going to buy it with the very little money i have
Good game, but I wish Multiplayer was a little more consistent with grouping.. that’s the reason i don’t play anymore. Really the only thing I can really hold against it..
Campaign was okay, but I didn’t like how they had the same mission for each species, especially with only about 5 different ones, that and even after you complete it the game still feels the need to give you tutorials of how to play >.>
very good game but the alien can give you a bit of motion sickness
@SingularSuperNinja i mean 15 n 6
@SingularSuperNinja same here ive gone 15 n 16 plenty of times as a marine.
That’s odd. When I played the multiplayer demo, I won a decent amount of games. I had played a good ten games or so before I played as a marine and was winning a bit, then I started getting the marine and I slaughtered everything. I think if anything, the marine is the overpowered of the rock/paper/scissors. Especially with his ability to block. Sure, he can’t do a huge amount about having his spine ripped out from behind, but a second or two of well aimed bullets takes down enemied with ease.
I noticed that each character has an underdog story.
@bowlofarthritus eh fuck off dip shit
i like it all man i love this game
its like the movies
I played both of the AVP on PC ages ago when they came out, the arcade beatem ups, even the Jaguar version. This was the worst version Ive played. First, I dont recall it taking almost a full clip to lay an alien to waste with the pulse rifle. The Predator was the only mode half way worth playing
While there are plenty of worse things that could have blighted AvP, these are enough to stop the game from becoming as good as it could have been.
@erehgregrhegrhegr True, but there are some significant flaws such as not being able to move whilst doing “grab” attacks with the Alien and the Predator, which leaves you very vulnerable for a sizable number of seconds unless you are certain that there is no enemy nearby that could kill you while frozen to the spot — and in a multiplayer match in particular that can be a real problem. There are also some Alien transition problems due to some slightly poor design in the maps (e.g. overhangs).
I’ve finally beaten the marine story.
@godzilla964 yer playing as predator and Alien is fun. The marines.. well it wasn’t the worst role I’ve played as but the amount of times you end up having to find more ammo is just really annoying.
@colombianguyyo I do every now and then.
@Texy88 wow really that low? I would give this game a 7 at the least. I have this game on ps3 and I would say all the good points of the game make up for all the flaws. However what game doesn’t have flaws?
@970067 I don’t know. I was just moping about it. But when i say “I hate it”, i meant i hate the marine stage were you have to fight the alien queen. But the alien and predator stoies, are very fun.
@godzilla964 and whats that got to do with anything?
AVP is so better than mw2 yet mw2 gets better scores
