Capcom created some awesome fighting games using its CPS hardware. The Punisher is probably my favourite of these, but Alien vs. Predator comes a very close second.
The sci-fi universes of Alien and Predator collide in a testosterone-packed brawler featuring some of the best graphics and gameplay at the time. Each of the four characters on offer has a wide range of attack moves and combos with which to tackle the xenomorph menace, and you'll certainly need to become proficient with these if you hope to deal with the frankly ridiculous number of opponents on screen.
The game also features many of the iconic weapons from both movie franchises, including the pulse rifle, smart gun, plasma caster and throwing disc. What's more, these have movie-correct sound effects, which is just as well; it would be inconceivable to fire a pulse rifle and NOT hear THAT sound!
I don't really know much about the AvP extended universe or the comics, but it always struck me as a little disappointing the game didn't feature Ripley; a Major Dutch Schaeffer and Ellen Ripley would have made for a badass tag team against the aliens, but being able to clobber xenos as a predator with spear and smart disc pretty satisfying.
If you want to experience one of the best brawlers of a generation, AvP should be top of your list!
