Alien vs. Predator 1994

Is it still worth playing?

Capcom's 1994 beat 'em up for the CPS-2 arcade system, based on the Alien vs. Predator franchise. Up to three players control one of four characters against Xenomorph hordes and rogue human soldiers. There are two cyborg soldiers, Major Dutch Schaefer and Lieutenant Linn Kurosawa, and two Predators. The controls are an eight directional joystick and three buttons: attack, jump and shoot. Linn has a katana, the Hunter a bladed naginata staff and the Warrior an extendable spear staff, while Dutch hits with his cybernetic arm and can swing any melee weapon another character dropped. Each has a ranged weapon with an ammunition meter that refills when empty. Linn's pistol refills fastest but leaves her defenseless while she reloads, whereas Dutch and the Predators can move and fight as theirs refills. Four fighters who reload in different ways still make the choice of character matter.
