Gunstar Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 (edited) To whom it may concern, I recently found a magazine clipping of the definitive AvP guide that was originally published in Tips&Tricks magazine, winter 1995. For anyone looking for an excellent walk-through of this game. It includes full maps with all details of items of every level, both the Predator and Alien ships and all the airducts. and it's in full color. 6 pages with 2 pages devoted to the maps. It has full strategy for the marine scenario too, step-by-step to help you decide what order of "missions" is best/necessary and what can be skipped (like if you come across security card 5 before #4, there's no need to go after #4, etc.). As well as strategies for the Predator and Alien scenarios, which are less complex. JFYI. Edited January 7, 2008 by Gunstar 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyper_Eye Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 Is this guide better then the walkthrough in the "Official Atari Jaguar Game Guide"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunstar Posted December 7, 2007 Author Share Posted December 7, 2007 Is this guide better then the walkthrough in the "Official Atari Jaguar Game Guide"? I can't say, I did have the OAJGG book at one time, but by the time I had gotten it I had already used the Tips&Tricks version and I never really looked closely at the OAJGG version. All I can say is that the Tips&Tricks one is A definitive guide, if not the definitive guide. It's very detailed and you will have no trouble with the game at all using it as a referance.

ovalbugmann Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 Excellent! Thanks guillem. Although I cannot read French, I can probably still use the picture maps. Thanks for scanning these, maybe I can use google translator to translate it, might be hard to highlight the text for the process in a picture though.

Hyper_Eye Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 Thanks for sharing! I do believe that the AJOGG offers a more comprehensive walkthrough but that is a nice article. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevincal Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 If it was called CD consoles, then why was a cartridge that is AvP in there! Blashpemy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunstar Posted December 10, 2007 Author Share Posted December 10, 2007 If it was called CD consoles, then why was a cartridge that is AvP in there! Blashpemy! Probably becuase the jaguar CD was promised from the beginning and the magazine included it becuase it was a contemporary console of the time and soon to have a CD add-on.

Gunstar Posted December 10, 2007 Author Share Posted December 10, 2007 LOL Gunstar... Thanks for enlightening me. Sorry that you feel I am once again attempting to "correct" you, I'm just joining in on the conversation, and I realize you were at least in part, joking, due to the smilies, but I assumed there was at least a minute amount of sincere questioning there too, hence my reply. My cup is half full, apparently yours is half empty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevincal Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 No, there wasn't even a minute amount of sincere questioning. It was all totally a joke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyper_Eye Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 Speaking of AvP and CD... I was searching some stores and I found this on www.usedvideogames.com: ALIEN VS. PREDATOR 21.95 ALIEN VS. PREDATOR CD 24.95 In all the time I have been collecting for the Jag (12 years) I have never heard of a CD version of AvP. I have been a little less involved with the Jag for the last year or so (up until about a month ago) and I know that some beta versions of games have been put out encrypted for Jag CD (like Fight for Life and BIWN.) Has anybody put out any version of AvP on cd? I figure this is simply an error but there is a difference between the two prices and I am curious as to what you would receive if you ordered the CD version.

kevincal Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 I'm sure there is a Proto floating around out there somewhere. Well, probably one of AvP's programmers at Rebellion has it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be cool to check with them all tho From what I recall, Atari brought one or more of the Rebellion programmers in-house to work on AvP CD version, I don't remember how far along it got though, or if it was even a true sequel or if it was going to be an expanded version of the cartridge.

Atari brought Rebellion in-house to work on finishing AvP. it did have nothing to do with AvP Cd but just with the fact that AvP di take forever and was pushed back on release several times. Some of the Atari Testers like Lance Lewis also had to help out on level design and such. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
