Sega and Rebellion won’t release a “sanitized” Aliens vs. Predator for the Australian market, but it appears the companies are at least going to try and appeal the government’s decision to “ban” the game. Refused Classification noted over the weekend that the classification board will hold a review of AvP’s status this Friday, December 18.
The most recent high-profile game to attempt an appeal with the Aussie ratings board was Valve’s Left 4 Dead 2 — it failed. However, an edited version of the zombie apocalypse survival trainer was released in the region. We’ve contacted Sega for comment on the matter.

Lance Henriksen, who was most memorably cleaved asunder as android (ahem, “artificial lifeform”) Bishop, will see another continuation of his Aliens film role in Rebellion’s Alien vs. Predator game. Henriksen plays Karl Bishop Weyland, the descendant of Weyland-Yutani corporation founder Charles Bishop Weyland. The 69-year-old actor is happy with his virtual likeness (seen above) and is quoted as saying, “I might score from this game!” Joystiq is quoted as saying, “Maybe if it’s from a facehugger, Lance.”
Considering Henriksen’s appearance in one of the most gore-riffic scenes in film (at the time), we should reiterate that Aliens vs. Predator will release in February 2010 on PS3, Xbox 360 and PC — in countries that don’t require toned-down violence. Rebellion has stated that it will not be “releasing a sanitized or cut down version for territories where adults are not considered by their governments to be able to make their own entertainment choices.” Sorry, Australia and Germany.

Whoa, what’s this? Developers Rebellion and publishers SEGA want to give everybody a head start before we begin hunting for their game on the shelves at our local retailers, so they’ve been kind enough to release an image of the Aliens VS Predator box art.
Surprisingly enough, the image contains both an Alien and a Predator, getting ready to VS one another.
Head on down below for a larger image:
Aliens VS Predator releases on Xbox 360, PS3 and PC next year, on February 23rd in North America, and February 26th in Europe.

In SEGA and Rebellion’s upcoming Aliens VS Predator, three factions will fight for survival and supremacy in the dark, dank, metallic corridors we’ve come to associate with science fiction based media, ever since the Alien series of movies years ago.
Now, in this new trailer for Aliens VS Predator, we see the kind of terror that a single Alien can instil in its victims, as it uses it agile abilities to make quick work of a Marine, and even a mighty Predator.
Watch below:
Aliens VS Predator releases in February next year on PC, Xbox 360 and PS3.

Alright, look. We’ve tried to remain as impartial as possible in the undying debate of Aliens vs. Predator, but we think the winner of this struggle is clear. Sure, Predators have cloaking devices and wrist-mounted swords, and humans have … well, inimitable pluck, we guess. However, Aliens possess fanged proboscises. Sorry, other guys, but acid-coated tongue-jaws are an impossible act to follow.
You can see the Aliens’ strengths in action in the latest trailer for the Sega’s AvP, posted above. For reasons which will become clear to you upon viewing, we’ve affectionately titled the video “Aliens vs. Predator: Sorry About Your Face.”
[Thanks, Ikarop.]

GameStop is looking to entice those on the video game-purchasing fence (it’s a real thing … look it up!) regarding upcoming Bethesda-published titles Wet and Rogue Warrior by offering $10 off each game’s price should they pre-order through the retailer. If you decide to snag both games (what are you, a millionaire?), we only ask that, should you leave the two games alone in a room, you keep the door cracked. We’d hate to see what kind of super-killer offspring they’d produce.

Like a magnifying glass over a Xenomorphic ant (scariest image today!), Sega has quietly focused its release ray on February for Aliens vs. Predator’s spawning at retailer. As noticed by Destructoid, the company’s game page now gives the title a sub-orbital drop window of February, where the game previously had a vague early 2010 release.
We followed up with Sega and a company spokesperson stated, “Early 2010 is all we can confirm at the moment.” Better talk to the website guys, huh?

The first trailer for Aliens VS Predator featured the premise of the game – three separate species are hunting each other down in a battle for supremacy, or just plain survival.
This second Aliens VS Predator trailer shows the plight of the lowly Marine grunt, who is stuck between the vicious claws and whipping tail of the Alien, and the technology and tribal brutality of the Predator.
Who will come out on top? Watch the second Aliens VS Predator trailer below to get a clue:
