Prey 2 - Thread

Neil79 · 12 Mar 2011 at 16:01

French website NoFrag has a cover image of the next issue of French gaming magazine Joystick, which shows their cover story to be a Prey 2 reveal, indicating a follow-up is in the works to the first-person shooter. There are no details yet, but the accompanying blurb says "personne ne l'attendait mais ca va changer!" NoFrag helped us with a translation, saying this means "Nobody was expecting it, but that's going to change!" The original Prey was developed by Human Head Studios for now mostly defunct 3D Realms, but the rights to the franchise now belong to id Software and Bethesda Softworks parent company Zenimax.

Awesome, I really enjoyed the first. It was by no means a classic but it was a fun play and had the potential to be much more

I didn't even know there was a chance of Prey 2. Prey has to be one of my most favourite games of all time. I just cannot put into words how ruddy good it was with all its different aspects.

thoroughly enjoyed the 1st, eagerly looking forward to this

I don't think I will ever understand what people found appealing about Prey, I certainly won't be buying a sequel.

Maybe The Darkness 2 spurred them on to a Prey sequel.

Prey came out 5 years ago? Man time flies.

They going to be able to match the epic start when Blue Oyster Cult starts playing and you first end up on the Alien ship?

Never completed the game however. Later levels got really boring, lacking AI and the weapons weren't really that fun either.
Will keep an eye out for this though.

It's weird how the Prey devs have shot themselves in the foot. The original game has been pulled from Steam because they could not supply any more CD keys. Think of all the lost sales now that a sequel is on its way. A lot of folks would want to play the first before the second.

Relentless81 · 12 Mar 2011 at 18:40

Loved the first, never forget being in the bar and everything being sucked up around you and the people on the ship itself being ripped apart, crazy game

Pighardia · 12 Mar 2011 at 18:44

yeah, i suppose i kind of enjoyed the first one.

Neil79 · 12 Mar 2011 at 18:46

ahh memories!, upside down and PUKE!

Didn't like the dream parts though, the rest was awesome would love a sequel

Relentless81 · 12 Mar 2011 at 18:50

No way its funny how you recognise the rooms. Looks pants now though, was awesome at the time, what year was it out?

Pighardia · 12 Mar 2011 at 18:51

yeah, it's coming back to me now.
something like, when you die, you have to kill some things to come back or something
(i can't remember)LOL

There aren't enough Native American/alien games around imo

I really enjoyed the 1st game. Something to keep my eyes one!

I have prey on steam

YEAH

Been waiting years for this. Thought Prey was fantastic and they left it open for a sequel.
