A Brief History of Aliens Versus Predator Games

Aliens Versus Predator has a long history stretching back much further than the 2004 Paul W.S. Anderson-directed flick. In fact, the first piece of AvP media was a 1989 comic by Dark Horse Comics, simply titled "Aliens vs. Predator", in which humans attempt to colonize a planet that is used by Predators as a hunting ground. The Predators soon arrive on the planet, inadvertently bringing along some Alien eggs, and chaos ensues. The plot of the original comic will be more than familiar to fans of the series, with the majority of subsequent iterations, particularly video games, using this plot layout as a backbone to their own storytelling.
