I was 9 years old,it was the year 2004 and at my friend's house. He was playing avp1 the pc game as the predator. He seemed to fall from a canyon (i thought he dropped from space) and i figured he was some kind of creature from space(which he obviously was) and when he just ran around like crazy killing humans, i started to find this whole alien with blades on his wrist that can go invisible fascinating,AND EXITING! he then started at level one to show me the invisibility thing better. But what was really interesting was the wrist computer and the funny alien noises it made, he further showed me the spear and the glowing green blood and the way predators heal. He then later showed me pics of aliens and preds, i couldn't look closely enough for long so i kind of had both alien and predator images in one inside my head and ended up drawing a predalien at school without knowing what i was doing! i also tryed building a predator out of bionicles. And at a dvd store i told my dad im a fan of predator, he then said "well then lets rent this one".
it was predator 2 and i loved it. And i watched aliens at some point and liked it alot too.
