Prey (X360)
pietmax | 11:25 PM on 06.24.2007 10 comments


So I think this is only the third game I know of with a Native American as the protagonist...

Not that that's a bad thing. I love it! I wish there were more!

From what I can tell, the folks who made Prey did their best to be true to Native American culture... at least, as true as you can be when the hero has to save earth from an alien menace.

Freakin' awesome game.

Yeah, it was a good game. I know there was at least one other game w/ a Native American as the protagonist though. Can't think of the name atm.

love this game, but strangely enough my main problem with it is that you can't die. It takes some of the challenge out of it! And also there were a couple of puzzles that really pissed me off and were very obscure.

Prey was a good time. I have to agree with double2's comment about not dying taking out the challenge. You die, you arrow some spirit beasts and you're back - rinse repeat. The portal travel got me all kinds of amped for Portal too.
pietmax's Destructoid Blog
Agreed - but it does make it less annoying to die in a boss battle and not have to completely restart the level, if I happened to forget to save right before the battle, and completely repeat the whole entire stage... like some games do.

I really liked the box portals where you'd look through and see yourself looking through one to the side... heh, that was weird o.O

As Tommy says many times throughout the game... "This place is f*cked up!"

This was an amazing game...my favorite FPS on the 360.I don't count the Halo's; they are in a league of their own.

It's too bad people stopped playing it after a while...I think last time I checked there were only 2 people online. The PC version is the same way too. I bought it from Steam thinking there would be quite a few more people playing on the PC...right? Nope. Most of the time there is absolutely no one online.

The only bad thing about the game was the achievements. They were way too easy. I had all 1000 points in just 2 days. Now I am patiently awaiting the sequel...

Sorry to double post (and stray slightly off topic), but I forgot to add on to what cjpkiller said. TUROK!!! I absolutely loved those games...the last one could have been a bit better though. Turok: Dinosaur Hunter was the first game I owned on my personal favorite console (remember...this is an opinion), the Nintendo 64.

Oh my...the nineties...such great times!

BTW... was anyone else really weirded out by the Va-jay-jays that some enemies came out of, and WENT INTO, to get around?

I freakin' love this game.

 about me

Lessee here... I have these systems: XBox, X360, PS2, Nintendo Wii, Nintendo DS, NES, Sega Genesis.

Right now, I am in the middle of Prey on X360. I haven't gotten a new game for Wii yet because... well, I'm sort of poor, and all the stuff I want to play is always rented at BBV. I still break out the Wii now and then... it'll get more play time eventually.

I've got to say, Beyond Good and Evil is probably one of the best games I've ever played... I'm so sad/angry that they probably won't be doing a sequel since it didn't sell well =/
