Saturday, April 15, 2000 Submitted Literature PlanetAvP News | 4/15/2000 | 4:30 PST - David Shipley Literature time: our latest piece of literature is from Ryan B, and is called, "Resurrection Park". This story is definitely one of the most odd (and funny) stories we've received. Why? Well, the story also includes creatures and characters from Jurrasic Park and other movies. Here's an excerpt: "The raptors, fresh after chomping on a few aliens completely forget the human female they left unconsumed in the ship and run off to pursue the new prey which headed towards the main complex where all the humans and buildings were. But as soon as the eleven raptors are about to pursue the aliens into the visitors center, two of them sense another target in the jungles. The two quickly break off from the main group and come upon Doctor Arnold. One leaps in front of the skipping Doctor Arnold and the other runs up from behind. "'Damn man!' Why does a black man always have to be dying first!" screams Doctor Arnold as the cigar he was smoking falls out of his mouth." Check it out.   Friday, April 14, 2000 AvP Gold Edition Released Today Aliens vs. Predator News | 4/14/2000 | 20:37 PST - Glock Today is the release date for AvP Gold Edition. However, several store chains are saying that the they will not recieve the Gold Edition until tommorow or next week. This is primarily the fault of the store chains, not Fox Interactive. Anyway, only one store chain (in my area, at least), had AvP Gold Edition on time. That was Electronics Boutique. Also, online game order sites like CheckOut also have it, but they don't deliver on weekends. Anyway, call every software store in your area and ask if they have the AvP Gold Edition. I've already played some of it online. The Gold Edition just rocks. Hehe. Have fun! Skin of the Week PlanetAvP News | 4/14/2000 | 4:45 PST - David Shipley Hmm, smell that? Yeah, it's Friday. Not only does this mean there's only one more day of work/school. but it also means it's time for a brand new Skin of the Week! So what's this week's picking? An ultra-cool Alien skin called, "Z_Strand Alien" - let's go read the review! And for more skins, don't forget to visit PlanetAvP's very own AvP SilverMask. Monolith & AvP II Aliens vs. Predator News | 4/14/2000 | 22:11 PST - cheeba_toke Dan Miller, of Monolith, has replied to our confirmation E-mail. Here's what he had to say: "I assure you we were as surprised as you were to see it in Next-Generation. I do not know where Next-Generation received information regarding such a project. As for future projects, Fox Interactive or Monolith Productions have made no announcements for any titles besides Sanity, No One Lives Forever and our upcoming LithWorld project. Dan Miller PR Coordinator Monolith Productions LithTech, Inc. So, still no confirmation, from Monolith or Fox.. Any Developments on this project will be brought straight to you! AvP Millenium Pack Now Availible For Sale Aliens vs. Predator News | 4/14/2000 | 21:02 PST - Glock All right people. For all those who want to just get the AvP Millennium Pack, along with the free facehugger, go the the official Aliens versus Predator site and order it directly from there. Anyway, the free Facehugger is a nice collector's item. But if you don't have both of your original AvP CD's, don't bother ordering the Millennium Pack. The second original CD is for verifying you as an original owner. So, if you warez the original game, or happen to lose or break your original CD's, then you are out of luck. Anyway, if you are a true owner of AvP, stop by the official site and order the Millennium Pack. Thanks to AvP News for the info.   Thursday, April 13, 2000 New Movie of AvP Gold Edition in Action Aliens vs. Predator News | 4/13/2000 | 4:18 PST - Glock Can you feel it?

Nightmares PlanetAvP News | 4/13/2000 | 4:16 PST - David Shipley Well, today is also a day for literature. And this time, we have one from Evil Weazil, and his story is called, "Nightmares Part II". Yes, this is his second chapter (read the first chapter here). Here's an excerpt: "Adam who had been checking the hall with Kevin turned to them and yelled "Hey, come back here, I need some help with thi...' he was cut off as something quickly swung down from the vent above and grabbed him, pulling him up. He screamed and fired upward, blood of whatever was up there came down and Adam suddenly stopped screaming. Kevin Parker and Jennie ran over and screamed up the vent at Adam. But soon Jenny’s voice interrupted them, 'Uh, guys.” She sounded scared and nervous, “That blood is burning through the floor.'" Come on. I just know you want to see what happens, so go check it out.   Wednesday, April 12, 2000 New Literature Here PlanetAvP News | 4/12/2000 | 4:32 PST - David Shipley Well, I'm sure we all enjoyed yesterday's literature from Skull Reaver, "AvP Part XVI: And Into the Fire". Well, from the looks of things, we have a lot of literature planned for the rest of the week! And today is the one the days for more literature. So what do we have in store for you? Hmm, it looks like The_Ranger (who creates the most action-packed stories on the site) has at last released part three of his recently-created, "Stranded" literature series. Here's an excerpt: “Dodge spun back to the predalien and fired two grenades in rapid succession. It took the first grenade square in the chest, but jumped before the next one could hit. The second one exploded on the wall, killing the other alien. Then a third alien came around the corner, and this one was a real nasty one. It stood three meters tall, with a massive plate over the back of its head. It had a long tail, and thick legs. Dodge gaped in awe. He had heard about these things, but never seen one. A praetorian. When he fired twenty rounds into its face and didn’t drop it, he believed he was going to have his hands full. When he turned and saw the wounded predalien, he was sure of it. " Is that action-packed or what? Then go check it out! New Article At Silvermask PlanetAvP News | 4/12/2000 | 16:08 PST - Glock Aglar has just updated Silvermask today, which now has a message board and articles section. It also includes a new article by me titled "What is the Future of the AvP Community?". Here's an excerpt: New user created levels would really put some muscle into the AvP community. How about a jungle level? It will be possible. How about a level that looks like your house, or of the Predator homeworld? That can be done. You can check out the article here. A big thanks go to Aglar and Shadowblade for posting it. Keep up the good work!	Buy AvP Now!   Latest Feature   Lookin' for some action?
