One of the best beginning scenes in a very long time

The video memory at 3GB limits the GTX 1060 to 1920×1080 resolution
PrecisionX OC refused to launch for us after activation. We probably left overclocking performance on the table by setting our overclock manually by being unable to use the advanced overclocking features it offers
This game made me sick. It's one of the first FPS titles to do that. If you have motion sickness
Stay away
Derivative weapons
Weak storytelling
The same monsters and aliens

Macs with integrated Intel video cards (such as MacBook
Mac mini) not supported.
Combat is lackluster even to the end
Doesn't reinvent the audiolog/email-reading/locked door paradigm in any way
Doesn't have anything to do with the first Prey or long-in-development Prey 2
Iterative of existing genre tropes
Minor framerate and quest tracking issues at launch
Abstract: Prey wears its influences on its spacesleeves. It's a Shock game, handing you a wrench and turning you loose into an expansive world filled with dangerous enemies and a series of puzzles for you to tackle however you wish.It feels so similar to System Sh...

Meaty and intelligent, great abilities system, requires ingenuity, cleverly assembled storyline without cutscenes, fearsome alien enemies
Possible to get stuck in gameplay loops, lacks a conventional narrative for those with ultra-orthodox tastes
Prey feels much like starring in your very own version of one of the better Alien movies – and it's just as scary.It's both utterly believable and spiced with some cutely observed flights of fancy, and will prove agreeably thought-provoking for anyone wit...
Excellent level design, Great visual style, Super soundtrack, Typhon abilities great fun, Creative puzzle solving
Mainline story is lacking, Lead character feels entirely passive in narrative, Closing stages suffer from aggressive ramp in difficulty
Arkane knows how to make excellent games, and has kept up its form with Prey. There's so much to see aboard Talos 1, and so many ways in which to find it, that the replayability is huge.I'd definitely encourage players to discuss with others how they comp...
Prey is brilliantly put together, with tense combat, a deep setting to explore, and the potential for amazing variation in play styles. It's only let down by a story that falters just as it seems to be taking off, and the fact that most of its best ideas...

Talos One feels immersive, encourages exploration and experimentation, Deep, involving story will have you hunting down every detail, Transforming Typhon mimics are genuinely unnerving
Not as non-linear as it pretends to be, Combat isn't all that exciting, Clumsy controls in zero-G
The scares, sci-fi setting and choose-your-own-way gameplay make Prey feel like a breath of fresh air compared to more linear adventures, and feels a lot like cult classic System Shock. Which can only be a good thing. With the development team made up of...

Abstract: BethesdaGamesRadar: "I don't know a massive amount about Prey. I know that the black oil-slick aliens are bad and the GLOO Gun is good, and that something dodgy is going on. And that at some point I'll be able to turn into a mug. Five hours in, I'm so hap...
Abstract: Published July 20th 2006. Written by David Hall. When a game has been in development for a certain amount of time expectations for it become inversely relative to its development time. Take Duke Nukem Forever for instance, it’s been in development so l...
Its not quite the masterpiece we were expecting, but Prey is a solid effort with unique touches to justify the outlay. The campaign, however, is a little short. Michael Haynes Lowest online price: ££1.90 ...
Abstract: fascinating space-based alien 3D shooter: A first-person shooter. With aliens. On a spaceship. Preys basic premise isnt the most original game idea ever. Perhaps developer Human Heads next game will be an RPG which involves a small amphibian, who is faced...
