Vivendi Universal Games has finally gotten down to it, creating an entirely original action-adventure game using the Predator license, made so popular by the eponymous Arnold Schwarzenegger film (with much thanks to Jesse Ventura, of course).
Dubbed Predator: Concrete Jungle and in development by Eurocom (Sphinx, The World Is Not Enough), VU Games' third-person action game is told in two time periods, the 1930s and the 2030s. After a 100-year ban from the Earth by his elders, the brutal, overly violent Predator returns to Earth seeking vengeance on the organized crime empire that have tried to seek out and kill all Predators.
Using the film as an inspiration rather than a formula or blueprint, Predator: Concrete Jungle is set in a large urban landscape giving the already advantaged Predator the perfect setting to kill his prey. The Predator has use of several vision modes, including cloaking technology, and a load of alien weapons, such as Wrist Blades, Plasma Casters, CombiStick, Speargun, and Smartdisc. The Predator will be able to pull off single and combo attacks using more than one weapon simultaneously.
Due on Xbox and PlayStation 2 this fall, Predator: Concrete Jungle is a single-player offline game that's yet to be rated.

This is a toss up, I would like it to be great cause it sounds cool, but then theres always the chance it will suck and disapoint everyone, just have to see when it comes out.
