Prey is an awesome and innovative new title from Bethesda. Truly a must have.

I'll start with the few things that bothered me at first. Starting with the engine, Pray was built on the same engine as Doom. It shows as the graphics and sounds are a little lack luster in my opinion. The engine plays very smooth and fluid but it's definitely suited more for consoles than the PC. The default controls we're a little odd to get used to at first. The story was a little predictable however very well done.

These issues are very minor in comparison to what makes this title so great though. First, I want to talk about mechanics. This game has some similar abilities to Bioshock, however they are a lot more customizable and some of them are really cool. These features and abilities allow you to really play the game how you want to, and none of the abilities really felt lack luster. The difficulty of the game is well rounded and provided me a good challenge. The weapons in the game are all pretty diverse and unique. There are really endless options to playing the game. As for the story, your decisions during the game influence what kind of ending you get. Although some of these decisions can make the ending a bit predictable. The ending which I feel like was supposed to be a grand epic plot twist was covered up a little because of how you are lead up to it and some characters/decisions you make can really spoil it for you. However it's still a great story, great ending, and it really builds suspense for a potential expansion/sequal.

Overall, the story took me 28 hours to complete which is a great amount of content. The game also offers a few unique achievements, and has a few special modes for replay ability.

I'd definitely recommend picking this up. It's worth the full price.
