Product Description:
In Prey, gamers enter an unpredictable world where nothing can be taken for granted. You'll become Tommy, a Cherokee garage mechanic stuck on a reservation, going nowhere in life. When an otherworldly crisis awakens spiritual powers from his long-forgotten birthright, he & his girlfriend are abducted by aliens who need him to save the planet -- even if he's not sure he can. Multiplayer game support that takes advantage of the unique gameplay styles in Prey Deep, emotional story of love and sacrifice based on the Hero's Journey story structure -- the same used to tell Luke Skywalker's story in the original Star Wars

Bought this game due to the new linux client that was released. It uses the data and key from the disks to install.
Game looks great and is quite fun. Multiplayer doesn't seem to be working yet, which is a bit of a bummer. Overall, I would recommend this purchase for linux people. At least it will show that there is a linux demographic out there. You can also show your friends that linux is capable of playing semi-current games.

I had to write a review for this game when I saw it only has a 3 1/2 star average. Really this game has everything one could ask for in a FPS; great graphics, excellent narrative, innovative game play, and pulse pounding, frenetic action.
The story begins somewhat slow, with a bar room brawl on a Cherokee Indian reservation somewhere in the Midwest. But by the time "Don't Fear the Reaper" kicks in on the jukebox in the corner, you know you're in for a ride. The story immediately takes a twist and the player gets thrust into a harsh alien world aboard a strange spaceship filled with familiar objects. From there the story only gets better as the player is drawn deeper towards the heart of the ship and the overall purpose of his alien captors.
As one reviewer mentioned, the game does have some puzzles. Prey is not a carbon copy of Doom, Serious Sam, or Painkiller. While those games are all great, Prey is a different breed. Prey is more closely related to games like Half Life that use cut scenes to advance a complicated, interesting story line and puzzles to keep the game play varied and interesting. There are some very memorable puzzles involving anti gravity floors and portals that are a little bit mind-bending but not overly difficult.
If you are looking for a first person shooter that is entertaining but not intellectually numbing then Prey is an excellent candidate.

I am a regular gamer and thought I would enjoy this when I read about "good music" and good playability. Graphics are pretty good but I got bored with it really quick and my guess is most others will too. Played it for an hour whereas I normally beat every game I get.

I came to play Prey a bit late, but even by current standards, this is a fantastic game. It combines a lot of creatively managed elements that I've seen in other games in interesting and innovative ways.
It is primarily a basic run and gun adventure, but its a lot of fun. The graphics are quite good, and the art is amazing. The length is perfect, and the pace is very good, too.
But what made this game for me was the story. Its simple, but it drew me in and held my attention through the whole game. The characters are excellent, the concept is cool, and it even manages to have a great ending. I have been sorely disappointed by this particular element of several games lately- left with the feeling that the developers ran out of time or money and simply pushed their clearly unfinished product out onto the shelves anyway. Prey was therefore a pleasant surprise- it was clearly passionately crafted with care by talented people.
If you've waited as long as I have to play this game, now is a good time to give it a shot. Its fairly cheap and its completely awesome. I imagine I will be revisiting this one a few times myself.
