Trivia

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.

Unlike most modern First person Shooters, 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.

There were three different demos released for the game before it was released, a seperate demo for each of the three species..

A "gold edition" of Aliens Vs. Predator was recently released. In actuality the "gold edition" is just a patch that adds in-game saves, two new weapons, a few new multiplayer levels, and direct server support.

The european version of the gold additional also replaces the actors in the game with members of programming company Rebellion's staff acting out the roles.

If you ordered the full version of the gold edition directly from Fox, you would also receive a strategy guide as well as a stuffed rubber facehugger.
