Soooooooooooo. Now I have the full game. Gotta say that I'm enjoying it. It's kept me very interested. Usually I'll only play a fps for about an hour or 2 then stop. I played Prey until 5 AM. The game is very much like the demo. Infact, the first 5 or so "levels" are the demo. Except now you get 10 gamer points for each one. So it does feel like they are giving away those gamer points. Since I've started Prey I think I have accumulated about 200, without playing the harder mode, which is locked until you beat the regular, or playing live. I must say though even if the multiplayer sucks I will feel like it has been worth it. The graphics are good, the gameplay is great, and the story is unusual. Tell me what you guys are thinking.

thanks killerscott for your comments on the game it really made me think twice about this game. I haven't gotten the demo yet because I have been busy doing some other things but now that I have some free time I am going to download the demo if it's still there. I hope others will post the comments on the game.

Well the demo was definitely awesome, but the concerns I have are

a)graphics, which were kinda inconsistent--some parts were great, some were ugly (human character models, some textures)
b)length--I hear its really short, and the multiplayer is fun but could get old with just 2 modes
c)lag--the mp demo was laggy as ****, even though it was pretty fun

So with those problems, i have a hard time justifying a purchase--but definitely a rent!

thae game is short but most FPS are. i beat the game the first day and i played it for maybe 6 hours straight, me and a friend were racing to see who could beat it faster, i won by 20 min. but only cuz he got stuck at a puzzle.

the game looks good, gameplay is very innovate and creative, i havent played online because i know it is still laggy, and i didnt enjoy the lag in the demo.

all in all its a good game.

So far, it sounds like a game that will be forgotten in a few months...

Yeah. I'm the kind of person who doesn't mind a short game. As long as it keeps me interested the whole time, which prey has so far.

Same here too Max...I was never as excited about this game as everyone else seemed to be...Guess I never really "got it."

The thing that really bugged me about this game was the first weapon you get. I don't know about any of the other weapons in the game but I'm huge on how the game presents the weapon. The weapon is frankly like firing a bunch of rib-cage bones that were stuck together with gum....am I the only one that wants big beefy quake 4 type weapons that kick some ass...not stick guns?

I found Prey to be a fun game , I don't race through games I explore them (read posters, look at debris,check out textures,listen to audio,)
and just cruise through games,, I like to see what the artists and designers did and respect their work , it's really worth playing at least once, and for anyone who is into the paranormal theres lots of fun references

I thought it was really creative. We usually just stick to human weapons, i thought it was unique to have alien weapons. But it was creepy when you had to kill that possesed girl. Over and over agian.

I was really interested in this game, I think I'll pick it up. I'm the kind of guy that doesn't play through a story twice though. I take my time when playing and tend to stay away from live too much. All of my 360 play time nowadays comes from games with a GREAT story line that I can run through once and pack away.

My only question is what the story is like. Pointless gore and alien homicide only lasts for about 2 hours on me. Was anyone really intrigued by the story and kept your attention throughout?

I'll definitely buy it, not rent. My total addiction for the box wore thin about a year ago and I only get like 5 hours play time a week in.

Edit: Jesus, I've been here for 4 year. I need an answer stat before I get addicted and come back again!

I just rented this game and I'd have to say that it has a decent but short sp and a really bad laggy mp. Maybe worth a rent but I wouldn't recommend for a buy.
