    I agree with jamiep73: this was a game I set aside. And then came back and enjoyed the hell out of.

    Comments: art direction was mentioned - in passing - during the review, but should be emphasized. Prey looks great: slimy walls, anus-like fissures that dump on you as you pass, cool character design - it all works. And ran flawlessly on my (then) upper-mid-range system. No issues whatsoever.

    Great audio. The main character is pretty surly most of the time and there are some really laugh-out-loud bits of dialog. Also, the whole "world's being invaded while you're running around the Mothership" thing is handled really well via radio broadcast's that you tap in to from time to time (these start as typical paranoid 'abduction' pieces full of "little green men" and turn in to "holy sh!t - we're being invaded!" updates). Nice details & very effective. For what it's worth, I'm not a big multi-player playa'. I tend to like interesting environments, big guns and snappy dialog. I don't really care about leveling-up, attribution points or 'open worlds'. When it comes to FPS, I like solid, linear single player campaigns (NOLF, RtCW). I suppose that I like 'cinematic' games, and realize that I might be in the minority here. Yeah, I'm an older guy (I actually played the release version of ZORK). But if it sounds like something you'd like, give Prey a shot. What do you have to lose? $4.00? That's nothing, a couple coffees and a donut these days...

    i dont think that mix american indian culture with an alien invasion is equal to a great game. the game is a bad taste joke

    cool! a little bland but i like the portals and its intersesting to combine cheorokee ( sorry for the spellling) ways and aliens is cool. More game could be made focusing on both modern and past american indians

    EBgames has this for $4. Gonna get it after watching this. Half the price of a rental from MG or BB.
