The alien play just looked terrible to me. The transitions between wall/ceiling/floor were god awful. Not nearly fluid enough. On top of that the Marines seemed so remarkably stupid that it wasn't even interesting watching them get killed. I never played AvP2, but this definitely doesn't meet my seal of approval from when I played AvP 1. I just watched a youtube vid of the alien gameplay and yeah, this is terrible compared to the old way. Plus the lack of the weird walleye vision.
