Prey

Prey is one of those games that somehow got overlooked and almost forgotten. Picked it up by chance and haven't put it down since. Probably up there as one of the best games of all time, they story, the atmosphere, everything about this game just makes it awesome.

Pros:

• Great story & Interesting characters
• Great Gameplay
• Intricate level design
• Pretty good graphics
• Recycling and crafting is great
• Mimics add a layer of horror and suspense

Cons:

• World environments look rather similar
• A few more enemy types would be nice

Verdict: It is a damn crime that this game is this overlooked. This is a game that reminiscences innovations within games like Half-Life. Shame that games like COD are getting the attention.

8.5/10

This is by far one of the most addictive games I have played recently, although at the beginning it seemed slightly disappointing mostly due to the graphics. Things however got better shortly, so don't judge it by the cower. As an RPG it has a lot of space and great maps. The level up system is detailed and fun. Creatures are nicely designed and not easy to kill unless you choose the easiest option. This is no shooter, make no mistake, this is a survival game. Prey can be a little disorienting at times, but if you love exploring, looting, finding hidden passages/shortcuts, you'll love it. The combat is very well done too. I personally got this for a very good price and enjoyed for almost a week. Would love to see a Dlc or even Dlcs.

Almost perfect video game. This is a great game for getting scared. Really good horror. I originally played the demo on ps4 & it was so scary. Then did the entire game, with start do-over. It was tons of fun. The only reason I opted for 9 stars is because I felt like the game became too repetitive towards the end and I basically got bored & wanted to finish it quickly. Repetitive meaning especially in regards to creatures -- there were no more new horror creatures to explore! -- which was sad because I was thoroughly enjoying myself. The storyline is great, no complaints there.

Prey has got to be one of the best games of this generation, maybe even one of my most favorite games of all time, the story of Prey is about a person, either male or female, named Morgan Yu, who inside a huge station known as Talos I, after an incident at some test, you wake up in your apartment, yet something is up, after escaping, you must pick up the pieces, find out what's going on, and escape, the story is great, there are really interesting twists during the story, characters, and mysteries, the sense of freedom, and exploration is very well done here, while you are in Talos I, you are given the opportunity to explore several open areas, where you can find hidden items, supplies, and side quests, speaking of side quests, there are quite a lot of them to do, they can vary from simply searching for someone to finding maps to a treasure, the quests are quite fun and varied, the gameplay is also amazing, gunplay is smooth, visceral, and intense, and the horror elements add a sense of desperation, intensity, paranoia, and helplessness, which makes the game even more heart-racing, the game is also challenging, this is not a game where you run and gun like in call of duty, you have to think before you act and pick your battles, and the the AI is really good with a few problems, and there are supplies such as ammo, medkits, food, notes, neuromods, key cards, and side quests that will give you an incentive to explore, speaking of neuromods, they can give you the ability to upgrade Morgan Yu, with perks such as Hacking and Repair to increased strength and health, giving more replay value to the game, if you just do the story, it could probably be around 15 hours, but doing all side quests, exploring every nook and cranny around Talos I etc., will bring that up to 40 hours, with massive replayability through different builds and critical choices you make throughout the game, my playthrough was around 30 hours, but I still had several side quests and places that I haven't fully explored, this is a game that must be played and that is absolutely worth your time and money
