Prey is about an Alien Invasion, you're Tommy. A Cherokee Indian with a special heritage, your aim is to rescue the girl friend, the Grandfather and the World. Tommy denies his Heritage at first, but comes to rely on it later on. The game may sound funny, but it's actually serious. Game play:
On first glance, you'd think you're playing Doom 3 or Quake 4. Prey however is Unique when compared to them and utilizes the engine. The game uses the idea of Portals and gravity to an extreme. As if that wasn't enough, Tommy's Heritage, which allows him to Spirit walk, is used in many puzzle solving techs. Hands up for Weapons Design, every weapon is Unique in shape, size and Design. Although the idea is the same, but its Implemented differently (I mean who thought of a Bug Launcher for a rocket launcher). That aside, Prey is easy. The enemies rarely try to corner you or overwhelm you. And you can't die. (You should see that for yourself)

Performance:
Prey is 'light' in terms of requirements, Graphics are well made. Levels are designed well. I think the AI needs to be tweaked a little bit.

Sound:
The game Sound was done well, Voice acting is well done, while the music fits in the atmosphere.

Value:
Prey is very fun to play and you will miss it from time to time, besides I imagine there will be an expansion of some sort.

Bottom-line:
Prey is an Interesting, Unique and fun First person Shooter. And will keep you glued for a couple of hours.
