Aliens vs. PredatorvsF.E.A.R. 3

Aliens vs. PredatorF.E.A.R. 3
Axis by axis
Execution6 vs 6
Same score on execution - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Aliens vs. Predator
aim and melee timing across species
F.E.A.R. 3
Slow-mo gunplay still rewards fast accurate aim
Reads2 vs 2
Same score on reads - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Aliens vs. Predator
human opponents in multiplayer modes
F.E.A.R. 3
Squad AI flanks convincingly but follows mappable routines
Variance2 vs 2
Same score on variance - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Aliens vs. Predator
enemy spawns and drops vary
F.E.A.R. 3
Encounter layouts are scripted-but-unknown first time
Optimization4 vs 4
Same score on optimization - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Aliens vs. Predator
class abilities and routes solvable
F.E.A.R. 3
Cover usage and power timing are quickly learned
A matching score does not mean a matching test. Two games can both sit at 10 on execution and demand completely different things of you - which is why the reasoning above matters more than the number beside it.
