Don't FEAR Prey

This game has been long hyped and I was really looking forward to it. Unfortunately the game has not come close to living up to the hype. The game is incredibly linear with weak AI. While the game has some decent ideas to enhance the experience - primarily the wall walking, the game is pretty basic and seems like a doom 3 clone that fails to take advantage of the innovation in meaningful ways...

The multiplayer is also very basic and while it also contains the wall walking it is really under-utilised. Sorry, but games like FEAR need not fear Prey.
