Prey

[Zirax]

Well on the whole it killed some time, but I wasn't really impressed. I have had it lying around and I was bored this weeked so I installed it.

Its meant to have adaptive skill levels whereby if you kick ass too much its meant to get hard. It didn't really get that hard at all if i'm honest. The weapons were really unbalanced for example:-
Weakest guy with gun <- lob a grenade at from the nail gun in the face and he's fine.
Weakest guy with gun <- few shots with the weakest gun and he's down like a pansy

You are informed that you are 100 miles away from your goal....awww crap loads of stuff to kill. <budget cut> Hmmm, portal.... almost ontop of your goal In all I think it took about 8 hours ish to complete, thats with listening to all the audio feeds and admiring the pretty scenery outside.

I realise i'm giving this game a damning review but it really was annoying at times. However if you are after an introduction to portals and how you would game with them.... get this game. At first disoriantated along the lines of... whats up/down? where the hell am I now?

You can be walking along and then the ceiling becomes the floor, then the left wall becomes the floor.... then it flips and you get on a new floor. Holdon what was the original floor again?? *shrugs, carries on*

You have to keep your eyes peeled as there can be enemies on the ceiling walking normally. Once you get used to this it becomes more of a case of, I don't care if you are on the ceiling.... you're still gonna die
