Vivendi Confirms Predator for 2004

Vivendi Confirms Predator for 2004

Thanks to our good friends at PlanetAvP.com we have found out that Vivendi Universal Games has officially confirmed plans to launch an XBox, PS2 and PC Predator title.
The news came from a conference call which followed the release of Vivendi's full year 2003 financial results.
The conference call confirmed recent rumours about a Predator title and also gave it a 2004 release date, something which falls in-line with expectations that the game's release may be closely timed with the AvP movie this summer.
The call also revealed the publishers full line-up for 2004 which includes, of course, Half - Life 2. The full list of titles is as follows:

World Of WarCraft (PC), Half-Life 2 (PC), Van Helsing (Xbox, PlayStation 2, GBA), Crash Twinsanity (Xbox, PlayStation 2, GBA), Spyro V (Xbox, PlayStation 2, GameCube), Counterstrike: Condition Zero (PC), Red Ninja (Xbox, PlayStation 2), Fight Club (Xbox, PlayStation 2) and Leisure Suit Larry.

Another, slightly, interesting detail to come out of the conference call was the best-selling title list for Vivendi Universal, topped surprisingly by The Simpsons Hit & Run. Here is the full best-seller list

1. Simpsons Hit & Run (USD 67.3 million)
2. Hulk (USD 56.6 million)
