Predator: Concrete Jungle (PlayStation 2, 2005)

I rented this game first, to see if I would like it. I started playing at 3PM and couldn't stop until about 6AM the next morning!...lol I now own it!!! It is freakin awesome! Once you learn your moves, it's addicting. The kills are cool, and the ability to change the Predators views through the different light spectrums makes the game that much more spectacular!! I would recommend this game to anyone above the age of 15... It's challenging without being super hard to figure out, but not so easy you'd get bored fast. Overall, EXCELLENT game.

First who hasn`t seen Alien Vs. Predator, Predator, and/or Predator 2. If you haven`t then just forget about reading this review. As you know the predator can only kill prey that actually poses a threat at any level. And of course that is how it is in the video game. Personally I was expecting to go into jungles and like flay victims. But you don`t. You can only flay if it`s a mission. It`s pretty much like Spiderman 2 only there`s blood and gore and you can actually kill civillians, (But not too many). But those are the only things that suck on ice. But the graphics and gameplay and stuff are awesome. So i`d get it if you found a copy of it. (Note:This game is very popular and will not stay in stores for another year.) ( Another Note:It`s still at it`s original price from over a year ago and is very hard to find. If it doesn`t Have it at Fry`s Electronics then You probably won`t find one any time soon.

The game is related to the movies. It seems like everything you've seen in the movies you are able to do. Voice mimicry, Tech visions, weapons, etc. There wasnt anything i didnt like about this game.

Who hasn't seen Predator? And for those who have, we all wonder why there hasn't been a great game made by now.

He's the ultimate hunter, able in both action and stealth. I mean let's face it, Dante would get waxed like a floor, and Sam Fisher would never see it coming.

So it is with great pleasure that there is FINALLY a game at least worthy of this character's truly game ready abilities. I'm not saying this game is better than the games hinted at above, but it does what it is meant to do very well. And that is, allow the player to be the hunter, and really feel like you are playing as the Predator.

To keep it short and sweet, if you ever wanted to be the Predator, buy this game, period.

A big 8.5 of 10.

I originally bought this game brand new, completed every mission and even earned a few bonus items. I got into a selling frenzy and not realizing my possible oversight, sold this game. I immediately regretted selling it. It's difficult to find but I managed to get a good version with no instruction booklet.
The story follows the same plots of Predators 1 & 2 with a really cool time travel twist and some VERY impressive cutscenes between, during or after missions. You really find yourself in the thick of a great plotline that would've made a great movie version of Predator 3. Some of the villains and bosses are hokey but hey, ya gotta have someone with a spine and skull to rip out, otherwise your goin' home trophyless. Speaking of violence and horrible ways to die, Predator has many, many ways to dish out nasty punishment at his disposal. You could begin with a face grab and mega kick or go all out and rip a guy in half. Heck why not throw a fool ten feet in the air and impale him on your combistick if he chooses to step up for a taste?
You have access to EVERY piece of Predator tech! Cloak, vocal mimicry, wristblades, combistick (staff, which you can upgrade to a double edged sword or glaive.), smart disc, speargun, shoulder-mounted plasma cannon, pulse mines, fire bombs, every vision tech (heat vision, night vision, and psychoanalysis!!), you can climb certain walls, do backflips, megajumps and basically be as bad as you want to be. But not too bad now, you can only kill so many humans that are running or scared per mission. You have honor to maintain. Save the pain for the drug dealers, voodoo mystics and mafioso that have stolen your tech and brought you and your clan much shame.
There are plenty of bonus missions, alternate costumes, and upgraded weapons to earn if you choose to become the true Predator. I must admit this game is a challenge if you are trying to earn bonuses. It's difficult enough as it is. Especially the latter stages where you really have to ration your energy and health.
The play controls are perfectly responsive. My only beef with this game is the rotating camera, left goes right and vice versa. It takes some getting used to. The camera angle is too dependent on the right analog's position. There is no way to lock it in. Which comes in handy at times for blind jumps and such but proved too distracting for me. It also makes it very difficult for Predator to run fast if the camera angle isn't parallel to his shoulders. Making some of the bonus tasks (which are ALL about speed) nearly impossible.
All in all, this game is very fun and highly addictive once you realize how many items and moves are at your disposal and the option to be stealth or show yourself and just be as ugly as you are mean. One of my favorite missions is waking up in a lab stripped of every piece of your tech and realizing just how much there was available. I appreciate the fact that you can replay previous or favorite missions at your leisure or go for a checkpoint run and try for some new items. There is PLENTY to do in this game. I still play my new (used) version when I complete my newer, easy games. *Watch out for some familiar foes, they come in droves and can be quite a nuisance!

I like the fact that the game was in excellent condition and had the game booklet with good case. I decide to buy it because it is a hard game to fnd.

My son collects Predators and other than figures it is really hard to find stuff. Was delighted to fing the PS2 Predator game. The game is SO fun, our
whole family plays it...................Thanks

great game but controler movement could be better movement left to right is inverted other than that this game is the sh*t

Excellent PS2 game, great game graphics, fun, very similar to real Predator, quick to pick up and learn.

my son has been looking for this game for a long time and this one was also a great price. thank you

The one feature I liked about the transaction is how fast it took to complete and also the amount of time it took to be shipped.
The one thing that disappoints me is that this item came without a booklet (instruction) and there is no cover as advertised in the picture.
This was purchased for my Son to be a Christmas present.
If would be more official with a cover.
But what was I to expect with a used game for $10.00 that brand new goes for $39.99.
