Prey (Xbox 360)

I love shooters but can be exasperated,especially by PC ones,by their over reliance on being able to save anywhere,so when there's a difficult bit you're usually left looking at save/load screens for an eternity which seriously disrupts the game,there are a few exceptions-Half Life 2,Deus Ex and a few others but something like Doom 3,Daikatana and Evolva,had you constantly reloading as you were jumped on or surprised by some hitherto unseen enemy. Prey gets round this with the Death walk,you die,you go all astral and shoot some wraiths to replenish your energies and are returned anew to the spot you died,in effect you are immortal,negative points?,NO!,it means you can be bothered,I gave up on The likes of Doom 3,Farcry ages ago as I was getting miffed at being killed or dying just because of some 'niggles'. Still just halfway through,but I can see finishing this a few times,unlike Doom 3 which I will endeavour to finish but can't see replaying at all. I've now finished it twice,once on each difficulty and still can't find any faults,on the harder difficulty there are no health packs/stations and the first bit until you get the Deathwalk can be tricky,your health does regenerate slightly each time though so it takes longer but it's not impossible,great game.

I bought this when it was first released, and while it may not be of the highest standard like Half-Life or Bioshock, it really isn't much below those steller FPS titles. It's also very innovative, the way the gravity works is sometimes amazing and can be trippy (in a good way!), the graphics are solid even though it's nearly 4 years old now, and the story keeps you gripped.

A underrated game I have the new game and it's not as good The puzzles are brilliant on this and the graphics are good enough Its Xbox One Compatible

I love this game.It's not just a simple shooter.It has a story that is not great but is quite good (Obvious though),It has puzzles,It has gravity switching,Pretty neat portal thing... (Not like Valves Portal, they are static)It has pretty good graphics (For a game that old).

This is probably the worst game I've ever played. Gameplay is rubbish along with the story line. I've played 100s of games, including many fps. There was nothing to like about this game. I traded it in after a few hours gameplay. The item arrived quickly.

got old for me quickly

On the face of it it has a lot going for it - fabulous graphics and some unique features for a FPS such as the upside down walkways, the ability to step, via strange portals, from one location to another instantly, and I like the 'Independence Day' type scenario, only this time it's set on the giant mothership which is 'harvesting' citizens of the Earth, and it's up to the American Indian hero to rescue his girl and save the day. And exploring this gigantic mothership you do get a feel of the massive scope of it and a sense of wonder as you progress through this strange alien world, and you can tell the designers put a lot of time and effort in creating something original which would stand out from the usual Half Life 2 and Halo shooters.Sadly the developers, while putting this amazing world together, neglected the essential element: gameplay. Why we like Half Life 2 and Halo so much is not only do they look good, and you also get that sense of adventure as you progress through the varied levels, you get some cool weapons that are fun and exciting to use, and the shoot outs are, more often than not, an adrenaline rush. The weapons in Prey, frankly speaking, are just bland and boring with weak sounds, and the shoot outs after a while become a real chore. This for a FPS is a disaster.And as has already been alluded to by other reviewers, the pattern to progress through this game is the same tiresome sequence of tasks: flip switches, ocassionally shoot a switch to flip the artificial gravity upside down so you can manouevre through a tricky section of the ship, go into 'spirit walk' to bypass a force field, negotiate through the various portals and walkways, while at each time engaging in mostly tedious shoot outs with various alien enemies using your crappy arsenal.And on and on it plods in similar fashion... With Half Life 2 and Halo you don't want them to end, and after each session you feel you're doing something worthwhile. Prey by comparison is not a fun experience overall, it's more an endurance test. What could have been a serious Half Life 2/Halo contender is essentially just a bland and repetitive gaming experience that does nothing for the genre other than to showcase the rather nice enhanced Doom 3 engine.By all means give it a go, but if you hate it don't say I didn't warn you.

- - - good game

Produkt, wie beschrieben. Gerne wieder.

Muy buen juego. Creo que fué uno de los grandes de su época, con una calidad que rivaliza con la del mítico Doom 3. En mi opinión, mejores gráficos que este último, y una historia mucho mas elaborada.

besser köntte nicht sein ;) gerne wieder

crema no tengo palabras , autentico lujazo , he manchado el calzoncillo , gran juego para mi colección , oh yeah

Hab' mir das Spiel schlicht aus einem Grund gekauft... es war billig. Habe es für 1€+3€ Versand erworben und bin ganz zufrieden damit. Es ist zwar schon etwas älter, aber Grafik ist trotzdem ok. Xbox360 eben ;)Das Spiel ansich ist ok. Die Story ist ganz nett gemacht und Gameplay ist auch i.O. kann man also getrost mal zocken!
