Is Prey worth it for $2.99 in this ultimate game sale promotion MS is having? I've heard a lot of good things about it but don't know how it stands up today. Thanks!

Prey is an excellent game and is well worth that price.

I purchased it a few years ago for $20 and felt it was easily worth that. Very cool game.

Very much worth it. Prey was a pretty good game when it came out and even now I think it still holds up (though it has aged a little bit). For that much money the game is a steal.

Are you really that cheap? It's freakin' $3, it costs more to go to Wendys.

I gues its worth 3 bucks, but not much more.

The problem is it starts out like a unique kind of game with an interesting opening. But it doesnt take more than 30 minutes to spiral away from that and turn into just another corridor shooter and it only becomes more so as the game goes along. You have nothing to ever worry about because you can never die and the ending is god awful because it doesnt resolve anything it just pulls the "To be continued" card.

The only thing interesting about the game was the portals. Which were all static and nothing more than a fancy looking doorway. They had a chance to be different but didnt take it.

They had potential to explore indian tribe cultures and have a different style thrown in that no other game has done, but nah you still run around shooting monsters. Again they passed on the chance to be different.

Its a mediocre at best game.
