DESCRIPTION

In Prey, players take the role of a disgruntled indigenous native named Tommy, searching the ship for a way out while blasting slimy space monsters and other vile creatures. Based on Cherokee mythology, the game centers on Tommy, his spiritual powers gained from an unknown birthright, and the nifty things he can do with them such as the "Spirit Walk" and "Death Walk."

Portal technology used in the game allow enemies to appear out of nowhere, while Tommy's spiritual awakening will have him walking on walls and leaving his body by doing the "Spirit Walk." The living ship will attack Tommy any chance it gets, but a friendly guide in the form of a hawk can help guide him through the ship and decipher the alien language when needed.

The Xbox 360 version of the game takes full advantage of Xbox Live, and up to eight players may defy gravity, blast aliens, and "Death Walk" together. ~ Gracie Leach, All Game Guide

“Mine too! I was kind of sad to hear the sequel was probably canned. ”

“After playing through the game once, then trying the multiplayer, I was totally repulsed by it. Even beating the game was horribly easy. The multiplayer is ghastly.”

“Look out! Gravity is no longer a one way deal. What a trippy game when you can have people walking on the ceilings, walls... It's crazy and gives the game it's uniqueness. Sure, it's a FPS, but it feels like horror survival. With the number of...”

“The inclusion of Art Bell kept me smiling. I loved the wacky use of gravity, the puzzles, and the fact that (after the forth chapter) I couldn't really die. Otherwise looked a bit like a Doom-3-rip-off.”

“I got this game for dead cheap on xbox 360 and it waas actually really good. If you read anything before buying it it just sounds terrible, aliens and cherokee indians sounds dumb as hell on paper, but most of the time it works.

Multiplayer was abysmal though, far too laggy to play :(”

“Better than I was expecting - the trippy alien ship provides some genuine originality in a stagnant genre.”

“After a seven month break on this title, I broke it out and with the help of Destromothus nabbed all the multiplayer achievements in just a couple hours. With The Darkness, that brings my 100% completion total to 28 games--17 retail and 11 arcade.”
