Trivia
Demos
There were three different demos released for the game before it was released, a seperate demo for each of the three species.
German Version
Banned in Germany for extreme violence.
Multiplayer
Unlike most First person Shooters at the time,
Aliens vs. Predator uses a peer to peer system for multiplayer instead of a client / server system. This particularity has been known to cause quite a lot of problem with online gaming, even if the game played fine on a LAN.
Predator Vision
The game's system for the predator's multiple vision modes, where they can see humans or aliens but not both at the same time, was eventually adopted into the feature film
Alien vs. Predator.
