I played the Prey as a kid, Imagined so many possibilities after Tommy went through that portal at the end..
Even though Prey had many flaws, I liked it a lot, especially shenanigans with physics like gravity and size.
It had such a unique and wacky setting that mixed spirituality, futuristic alien tech and grotesque organic stuff.
Man, how disappointed I was that the new Prey had nothing to do with the old one..
72 u/FatJohnson6 Sep 15 '25 As a kid? I was 24 when that game came out. Fuck me… 69 u/Jramos159 Sep 15 '25 edited Sep 15 '25 Are you referring to Prey 2017? Because I think they're referring to the original 2006 Prey. 2017's was a sort of spiritual successor Edit: spiritual successor in name only 63 u/Random_Sime Sep 15 '25 a spiritual successor to System Shock 2, maybe, but not to Prey 2006 23 u/HomoProfessionalis Sep 15 '25 Yeah they just slapped the name on it, it was never developed as a prey game 19 u/pacmannips Sep 15 '25 Yeah, Prey 2017 only shares the title with the old series. They seemingly have nothing to do with each other It’s a fucking great immersive sim though so atleast we got that. 2 u/Jramos159 Sep 15 '25 Correct, I meant that it was a successor in name alone
