Awesome! I thought, remembering the glory of the arcade game of the same name. Sadly, once I plugged this game in I realized it was not even close to the arcade version. Honestly I do not recommend playing this game, but if you chose to try it out I hope this guide can help you get through the game. You'll find maps of the levels, along with an enemy appearance guide. The maps are divided up as screens, but this is somewhat misleading. For the purposes of this game, a 'screen' is defined as the extremities you can move without killing any of the enemies present. Thus a 'screen' could be as small as one screen on your television, or as large as three. As for the enemy lists, not all the enemies are necessarily present at once on the screen; several of them may appear after you've killed some of their friends. Controls --------- Jump - (B) Laser - (X) Punch - (Y) Slide Left - (L) Slide Right - (R) The Streets ------------ The Year: 2493 The Planet: Vega 4 The City: New Shanghai Workers were digging a new subway tunnel when they uncovered dormant eggs of an extremely dangerous parasitic lifeform. The colonists were helpless against the alien horde. They sent out a distress call to Earth-based authorities. The distress call was recieved and understood by a passing spacecraft. The Predators were in search of big game. They had been thinking to hunt humans, but now they would be up against more challenging prey... Map: [1][2][3][4][5][6] Screen 1 -Items: Health / Invisibility / Boomerang Knife -Enemies: none Screen 2 -Items: Boomerang Knife / Spear -Enemies: Chest Buster x1 / Orange Stalker x2 / Red Stalker x1 Screen 3: -Items: none -Enemies: Orange Stalker x1 / Brown Warrior x1 Screen 4: -Items: none -Enemies: Orange Stalker x1 / Red Stalker x1 Screen 5: -Items: none -Enemies: Chest Buster x1 / Orange Stalker x1 / Red Stalker x1 Yellow Stalker x1 Screen 6: -Items: Spear -Enemies: Brown Warrior x3 / Orange Stalker x3 / Red Stalker x2 Yellow Stalker x3 The Sewer ---------- The aliens had been cleared from the streets, but now their underground hive would have to be destroyed before the city would be free of them. Map: [1][2][3][4][B] Screen 1 -Items: none -Enemies: Face Hugger x1 / Orange Stalker x1 Screen 2 -Items: Spear / Knife Boomerang -Enemies: Cocoon x2 Screen 3 -Items: none -Enemies: Orange Stalker x2 / Green Warrior x2 Screen 4 -Items: none -Enemies: Orange Stalker x1 / Brown Warrior x2 / Green Warrior x1 Screen B -Items: none -Enemies: none -Boss: Chrysalis The second stage features your first boss battle, the Chrysalis. The Chrysalis has a simple enough attack pattern, but his great speed makes him hard to hit. Notice the water along the bottom of the screen through the entire stage? they Chrysalis hides in there, leaping out to either flail its tendrils at you, or to perform a rolling attack that covers part of the screen. He likes to jump out right behind you, so you need to quickly turn and punch him a few times. He'll flee back into the water, then you repeat as necessary. If he performs his rolling attack, either move to the top or bottom of the screen to prevent him from hitting you. He should go down fairly easily, once you get past his speed. The Cliffs (Forest?) --------------------- The aliens may have been cleared from the city, but they have infested the forests as well. The Predators continued to hunt down the aliens. Map: [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [B] Screen 1 -Items: none -Enemies: none Screen 2 -Items: none -Enemies: Cacoon x2 / Orange Stalker x1 Screen 3 -Items: none -Enemies: Orange Stalker x1 / Green Warrior x1 Screen 4 -Items: none -Enemies: Cacoon x1 / Blue Stalker x1 / Orange Stalker x1 Screen 5 -Items: none -Enemies: Cacoon x1 / Orange Stalker x2 / Green Warrior x1 Purple Warrior x1 Screen 6 -Items: none -Enemies: Blue Stalker x2 / Orange Stalker x1 / Green Warrior x1 Screen 7 -Items: none -Enemies: Cacoon x1 / Orange Stalker x2 / Green Warrior x1 Screen 8 -Items: none -Enemies: Green Warrior x3 Screen B -Items: none -Enemies: none -Boss: Gorilla Hybrid The second boss has less fanfare then the first, but he makes up for it with brute strength. The Gorilla Hybrid has two attacks; it shots its toungue out a you, or it hops about, flailing while it does. Both attacks can be used while you are dealing damage to it, making it unique among the enemies you have thus far encountered. The damage it deals is negligable, however, so you should probably just start whacking away at it. Sliding to dodge its attacks is somewhat effective, but the damage you will likely receive in failed escape attempts will add up just as fast as taking a hit for every three or four you deal if you simply chip away at him point-blank. The Waterfall Basin -------------------- The aliens have made a hive at the base of the waterfall. A number of human victims could still be rescued... as if the Predators cared. Map: [1][2][3][4][5][6][B] Screen 1 -Items: none -Enemies: Chest Burster x2 / Orange Stalker x2 / Red Stalker x1 Screen 2 -Items: none -Enemies: Chest Burster x1 / Orange Stalker x1 / Brown Warrior x1 Screen 3 -Items: none -Enemies: Chest Burster x2 / Orange Stalker x1 / Brown Warrior x1 Purple Warrior x1 Screen 4 -Items: none -Enemies: Yellow Stalker x1 / Brown Warrior x1 Screen 5 -Items: none -Enemies: Chest Burster x5 / Blue Stalker x1 / Orange Stalker x1 Red Stalker x1 Screen 6 -Items: none -Enemies: Chest Burster x2 / Brown Warrior x2 Screen B -Items: none -Enemies: Chest Burster -Boss: Hive There is no 'boss' per se in this level, but you do have to defeat a large number of Chest Bursters to complete the stage. They fall from the sky continuously. The health bar on the screen decreases every time you kill one, meaning once you reduce it to zero you've won. Since you can only hurt Chest Bursters by sliding, that's what you have to do. Slide attack each one you see while trying to avoid the ones that fall on you. The best way to do this is by moving to the top of the screen. The Chest Bursters fall to the bottom of the screen, meaning they have to move up towards you. This will lessen the number who came harm you at the same time, making it a little bit easier for you. The Spaceport Elevator ----------------------- All the aliens in the city and in the countryside had been hunted down by the Predators. But that still wasn't all the aliens on the planet. The last nest of the aliens was at the spaceport. Map: [B] [9] [8] [7] [6] [5] [4] [3] [2] [1] Screen 1 -Items: none -Enemies: none Screen 2 -Items: none -Enemies: Cacoon x2 / Orange Stalker x1 Screen 3 -Items: none -Enemies: Cacoon x1 / Blue Stalker x1 Screen 4 -Items: none -Enemies: Cacoon x2 / Purple Warrior x1 Screen 5 -Items: none -Enemies: Blue Stalker x1 / Orange Stalker x1 Screen 6 -Items: none -Enemies: Cacoon x2 / Orange Stalker x1 / Green Warrior x1 Screen 7 -Items: none -Enemies: Blue Stalker x2 Screen 8 -Items: none -Enemies: Cacoon x1 / Green Warrior x1 / Purple Warrior x1 Screen 9 -Items: none -Enemies: Cacoon x1 / Blue Stalker x1 / Green Warrior x1 Screen B -Items: none -Enemies: none -Boss: Winged Queen The Winged Queen has only one attack, but that doesn't stop her from being the hardest boss yet. The Winged Queen flies up in the air constantly, making her difficult to hit. The only time you can hit her is when she dives at you to attack. That is all she does; she flies about above your head, then dives quickly in and quickly back to the top of the screen. Thus you have to jump at her as she dives, kicking her before her tail or claws hit you. Occaissionally, after a successfuly dive attack, the Winged Queen will hover just above you and try to hit you with her wings as you get up. Sometimes you can take advantage of this to get off a combo, making your life a lot easier. The Starship Bridge -------------------- The Predators had now hunted down every alien on Vega 4, except the ones in the spaceship itself. It was determined that the aliens had come to Vega 4 from the Orion Nebula long ago. The Predators decided to follow the trail, flying the alien-infested spaceship to the source of the alien plague. Map: [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9] Screen 1 -Items: none -Enemies: Orange Stalker x2 / Green Warrior x2 Screen 2 -Items: none -Enemies: Blue Stalker x1 / Purple Warrior x3 Screen 3 -Items: none -Enemies: Blue Striker x1 / Orange Striker x1 / Yellow Stalker x2 Screen 4 -Items: none -Enemies: Orange Stalker x1 / Yellow Stalker x1 / Green Warrior x4 Purple Warrior x2 Screen 5 -Items: none -Enemies: Blue Stalker x1 / Orange Stalker x1 / Green Warrior x2 Screen 6 -Items: none -Enemies: Blue Stalker x3 Screen 7 -Items: none -Enemies: Blue Stalker x1 / Yellow Stalker x1 / Purple Warrior x1 Screen 8 -Items: none -Enemies: Orange Stalker x2 / Yellow Stalker x1 Screen 9 -Items: none -Enemies: Green Warrior x1 / Purple Warrior x2 The Starship Corridors ----------------------- The aliens were firmly entrenched in the spaceship. The Predators had their work cut out for them. Map: [1][2][3][4][5] [6] Screen 1 -Items: none -Enemies: Blue Stalker x1 / Red Stalker x1 / Black Warrior x1 Purple Warrior x1 Screen 2 -Items: none -Enemies: Red Stalker x1 / Black Warrior x1 / Purple Warrior x2 Screen 3 -Items: none -Enemies: Red Stalker x1 / Purple Warrior x3 Screen 4 -Items: none -Enemies: Red Stalker x1 / Black Warrior x1 / Purple Warrior x3 Screen 5 -Items: none -Enemies: Red Stalker x1 / Purple Warrior x2 Screen 6 -Items: none -Enemies: none The Starship Observation Deck ------------------------------ It was a long journey to the Orion Nebula. Finally the Predators could smell victory at hand. Map: [1][2][3][4][5][6][B] Screen 1 -Items: none -Enemies: Orange Stalker x3 / Yellow Stalker x3 / Brown Warrior x2 Green Warrior x2 Screen 2 -Items: none -Enemies: Orange Stalker x1 / Yellow Stalker x2 / Brown Warrior x1 Green Warrior x1 Screen 3 -Items: none -Enemies: Orange Stalker x2 / Yellow Stalker x2 / Black Warrior x1 Brown Warrior x1 Screen 4 -Items: none -Enemies: Orange Stalker x2 / Brown Warrior x2 / Purple Warrior x1 Screen 5 -Items: none -Enemies: Orange Stalker x1 / Yellow Stalker x3 / Purple Warrior x1 Screen 6 -Items: none -Enemies: Orange Stalker x1 / Yellow Stalker x1 / Brown Warrior x1 Purple Warrior x1 Screen B -Items: none -Enemies: none -Boss: Snake Hybrid This guy is actually really easy. He's got three attacks, one of which is really nasty, but they all can be avoided very simply. The Snake Hybrid has a slashing and charging attack like most of the regular enemies, but he's got a third attack that takes off about a fourth of your bar. If you get to close to him, he'll grab you and start slashing and biting. Its unavoidable if you're next to him, but it can be totally avoided with a simple measure. Pick a corner, stand in it, and then just fire your laser repeatedly. Use short bursts, hitting him every other second or so. Each time he takes a hit, he'll back up to the opposite corner. Repeat over and over and he's toast. The Surface ------------ The aliens had all been eliminated. The Predators came at last to even richer hunting grounds, in the Orion Nebula. This should be the grandest hunt of all...

The Predators entered the final alien hive. Map: [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][B] Screen 1 -Items: none -Enemies: Red Stalker x1 / Black Warrior x1 / Purple Warrior x1 Screen 2 -Items: none -Enemies: Chest Burster x2 / Blue Stalker x1 / Black Warrior x1 Purple Warrior x2 Screen 3 -Items: none -Enemies: Chest Burster x2 / Red Stalker x1 / Purple Warrior x1 Screen 4 -Items: none -Enemies: Chest Burster x2 / Red Stalker x1 / Purple Warrior x1 Screen 5 -Items: none -Enemies: Chest Burster x1 / Black Warrior x1 / Purple Warrior x1 Screen 6 -Items: none -Enemies: Chest Burster x2 / Blue Stalker x1 / Orange Stalker x1 Red Stalker x1 Screen 7 -Items: none -Enemies: Red Stalker x1 / Purple Warrior x3 Screen B -Items: none -Enemies: none -Boss: Alien Queen The Alien Queen is your final opponent. She is nothing more then a super-powered Warrior, but she is still the hardest boss in you will face. Its not her attacks that make her tough, its the fact that she can combo you to death. When she starts hitting you, you cannot break free unless she knocks you to the ground. This means you can (and probably will) lose your entire health bar without being able to even move. She also cannot be hurt while she is charging, not even by an item or a laser shot. There isn't much in strategy for defeating her, you just simply need to knock away at her health as much as you can, hoping that she doesn't 'catch' you with a combo. The End? --------- All races in the galaxy owed the Predators a debt that could never be repaid. The Predators didn't care for thanks, however. It had been a glorious hunt. Perhaps some of this new and interesting prey would someday be found on another planet... Enemy Attack Data ------------------ Here you will find descriptions of the various attacks employed by the different varieties of enemies. Information on enemy health, however, is not available because seemingly identical enemies all have different size health bars. Bosses are covered in their individual levels above and are not found in this section. Cacoon -Spawn: Cacoons do not perform any attacks, they merely produce Face Huggers. Chest Burster -Charge: Chest Bursters charge across the screen, damaging you if they connect while they go by. Face Hugger -Charge: Face Huggers are just like Chest Busters, except they stay on the screen until you kill them. Kill them with a slide attack. Stalkers -Acid Spit: Two word, projectile vomit. They can spit acid at you from clear across the screen. -Jump Attack: Stalkers like to leap forward with their fists extending. This allows them to leap at you from just outside your reach, hitting you before you can react. -Slash: Stalkers will also slash at you from a stationary position, if they do not need to get any closer. Warriors -Charge: If a Warrior touches you at all, you take damage. -Jump Attack: Warriors like to jump at you as well. -Slash: Warriors also attack you by slashing at you with their claws. -Toungue: In the later stages, the Warriors will start shooting their long toungues at you. They reach about as far as a slash. Closing -------- Alien vs. Predator is (c) Activision, IGS Corp, and Fox
