Good idea, shitty execution.
Well, if you've heard of the Predators, you know the score. They're a race of aliens who get their kicks from hunting the deadliest prey they can find.Unfortunately, they're not exempt from the movie character curse that forces them to star in some pretty godawful games.The miraculous exception, in this case, would be Capcom's Alien VS Predator (no relation to the film of the same name), which kicked a lot of ass.
Predator: Concrete Jungle just follows the shitty movie-port trend, unless you happen to like hopping around a nondesript cityscape fighting the same two enemies over and over.The only other goals come in the form of grabbing a single enemy by the head, dragging him to a needlessly specific buildingtop, and then skinning him (which elicits no significant response from anyone nearby, or, for that matter, your victim), or bumbling around looking for random buttons to press.
In short, this is another example of carnage replacing substance.While this ploy may have worked in its favor in the heyday of the Mortal Kombat series, today it just ends up making a pretty sad game.Expect thousands of unsold copies in bargain bins soon.

don't forget the two FPS alien vs. predator games, which were fucking awesome, scary games.
