AVP:E was awesome considering people were starving for anything AVP.
It was a nice RTS without all the tedious resource management.
RTS freaks would argue that's the point of RTS games but I say screw 'em. AVP: E was fun focusing more on the squad placement and action and that is a good thing. all 3 species campaigns were fun.
I think ZONO created it, they also created the Sega Channel back then.
They even made it so smooth selecting units with a controller, just place the cursor, hold and let go
when the circle is large enough to select the ones you want, very innovative control style
to make RTS feel great on console controller.
