Prey 2 - Image 1 


Wondering if you'll be able to play the second iteration of the unique FPS from Human Head Studios (i.e. Prey 2) on your Sony PlayStation 3? Then here's quite the rude awakening: it's been confirmed that Prey 2 is pretty much going to take place on the Microsoft Xbox 360 and PC only. Ouch.

This comes allegedly from a story in EDGE magazine, though we might want more official confirmation that there will be no PS3 version of Prey 2. But hearing this from EDGE is really quite sad, since we know that an FPS like this would certainly benefit from the Cell Processor.

Casey Lynch of Radar Group, a game developing firm, also said confirmed that they're involved in the making of Prey 2 with Human Head Studios. But then, you probably already knew that. In any case, at least we'll still be able to play it on the PC, as all first person shooters were meant to be played. Updates as we get them.

» Yes, it was

Prey is very underrated, it was one of my favorite games on the 360. The MP sucks ass, but the campaign is one of the most original ones ever made

» Prey... 2?

Did this game really deserve a sequel? The first one seemed very average.



Hopefully they'll get rid of that stupid spirit world thing that was basically god mode and removed any sort of tension you might have experienced. I was just messing with enemies mindlessly once I realized there was zero threat.



Also, the portal gimmick from the first game has since been completely blown out of the water by Portal, so they don't even have that going for them.

» yes and no

The play around gravity and some cool concept of dimension and portal and etc are pretty cool. Puzzles are ok. After that is just a so-so Doom3/Halo like shooter which requires not much of skillful tactics or planning. You're a loner and don't expect any allies or squad of any sort. The whole west Indian theme mixed with 70's hard rock bar theme saving your alien kipnapped girl friend is not my taste but that's just my opinion. The ending has a logic problem because in order to have a sequel... the dude needs to have a body to return to... which is now burning in the middle of a freaking giant.... oh well probably too much spoiler for ya ;)

» Prey 1 was so so

The game was extremely short with god awful multiplayer. You wont see anyone online playing that game today. The whole gravity thing was over used and got very annoying. Prey 2 would have to be totally different for me to give rats ass about it.

» lol, wut?

The first Prey sucked ass. I'm surprised they are even making a sequel. Even the multiplayer was horrible. I can live without this game. It's funny cause this news post makes it seem as if we aren't getting a good game. lmao.
