Developer 3D Realms will be releasing a demo of its new first-person shooter Prey, which will be available for PC download from the 3D Realms website and 360 download on Xbox Live Marketplace on June 22.
The demo will be comprised of five levels that will enable gamers to sample both the single and multiplayer modes of this dimensionally disjointed game.
Prey is a remarkable looking shooter that has a young Native American mechanic called Tommy attempting to thwart an alien invasion with a
E3. It's the biggest, loudest, most surprising video gaming convention of the entire year, a cacophony of madness that overloads at least three of your senses - sometimes four, unfortunately.
It's naturally packed with more games than any one gamer could ever hope to possess and play, but that's where we come in. We've spent hours first playing each and every one we could and then arguing to the brink of violence about which was best. Then, we made lists for

Microsoft has revealed what specifications PC's will need to run its new operating system Windows Vista, without which PC gamers won't be able to play the next generation of Microsoft published games, including Halo 2, or use the new Live Anywhere online service.
While many PC's currently running on Microsoft's Windows XP will have the power to run a limited version of Vista, to get the full system - complete with Windows Aero, the flashy glass-like interface - a top-end

Bungie has released a screenshot of Halo 3, taken from the trailer that was unveiled at the recent E3 games show, showing Master Chief standing on a mountain and surveying the ruins of New Mombasa.
The Covenant now occupies Earth and, in this third game in the FPS saga, Master Chief returns to the planet to finish the fight. But while this is all the information that's been released about the plot, Halo developer Bungie has recently answered gamers' questions about the

Konami is taking its first-person shooter into the next generation with Coded Arms Assault, in development for the PlayStation 3.
Just like the original PSP version, Assault takes place in cyberspace, where a lone hacker is attempting to stop an evil corporation from achieving its aim of world chaos. But rather than dealing with binary or guessing a few passwords, this hacker is armed with guns and can get his hands on some major virtual
If Medal of Honor: Airborne - the latest in EA's WWII shooter series - is going to threaten Call of Duty's stranglehold on war-torn action, it has to be something special. The last few MoH games have been disappointing, but this fresh footage has convinced us that the magic is back, and with a vengeance.
As one of the US Army's paratroopers - the Airborne division of the title - you'll be starting every mission from the air. Hopefully, the rest of the Medal of Honor formula will get the same
We've managed to get ahold of new screens of Naughty Dog's as-yet-unnamed PlayStation 3 project. Seeing as Naughty Dog is best known as the developer responsible for the Jak and Daxter series, this new action game seems a bit of a departure for the team, mainly because it's very realistic and
