GamesRadar Jackass (Feature)

Apr 13, 2007

There comes a time in many games where the expected method of play becomes a bit too expected. It's when you're on this cusp of boredom that you realize that the greatest gift gaming has given us is the ability to plough your own way - to refuse to enter the test chamber just to see if you get in trouble. So join us as we subvert the basic concepts of gameplay by generally screwing around in games, whether through harassing NPCs, torturing virtual people or organizing naked foot races in ...

MultiPrey strategy guide (Feature)

Aug 4, 2006

A couple of months back, we were treated to a sneak multiplayer preview of the hit shooter-with-schizophrenic-gravity, Prey. The developers at Human Head gave us a drubbing - and we still can't get the taste of rusty pipe wrench out of our mouths. Flash forward to today: we still fill in the bottom ranks during MultiPrey matches. We clearly needed professional help, so we turned to the ...

Prey (Review)

Jul 14, 2006

Friday 14 July 2006 Prey is the touching story of how one man comes to accept his spiritual heritage, to the delight of his girlfriend, after being kidnapped by aliens. His girlfriend is considerably less delighted about the aliens, as she's been kidnapped too, but you can't have everything. It's potentially a bummer that his granddad gets squashed to death and Tommy falls off a bridge and dies after just a few minutes. You might think that was a bit of a spoiler, but it's not - these are the ...

Prey (Review)

Jul 10, 2006

You might want to hold onto something for this one: Prey turns fast-paced first-person shooter action on its head quite literally with some dizzying gravity effects that would have Sir Isaac Newton spinning in his grave. In multiple directions. As Tommy, a Native American on a quest to rescue his girlfriend Jen from being pureed in an alien Cuisinart, you'll battle your way through a massive cybernetic alien spaceship that scoffs in the face of the laws of physics. At the flip of a switch the ...

NVIDIA SLI Workaround For Prey Demo (News)

Jun 30, 2006

It appears that NVIDIA SLI owners cannot run the recently released Prey demo. NVIDIA has issued a statement with a workaround as well as word on an upcoming driver patch:

A few enthusiasts have commented that the recent Prey demo does not support NVIDIA SLI. NVIDIA is currently testing a Prey SLI profile, which we expect to release later this week in a new driver on nZone.com.

In the meantime, users can simply copy and paste the Quake 4 profile to make Prey scale. Prey and Quake 4 were developed with the DOOM 3 (OpenGL) engine, and SLI scales very well on Quake 4.

NVIDIA recommends users download the new 91.31 Forceware drivers for Prey. This driver works great on the Prey demo with all NVIDIA GPUs.

Prey Demo (News)

Jun 23, 2006

Prey is one of the most anticipated shooters ever - if only because it's had such a long time to work people up. In fact, this first-person shooter has taken longer than America's entire moon landing mission, from JFK's "We choose to go to the moon" speech to the final splashdown of Apollo 17. After 11 years in the making, Prey is finally here. Almost. The demo contains the first hour(ish) of the single-player game and two multiplayer maps. And while your character Tommy doesn't exactly choose ...

Hands-On PREY (News)

Jun 21, 2006

This isn't just another FPS, it's looking to include everything you could ask for from the genre.

What makes Prey unique is its use of gravity, or lack thereof. The gunplay is standard fare, and the game's modes (death match and team death match) aren't anything new, but we thoroughly enjoyed walking up walls, along ceilings, and then having everything reversed. For example, this one level we saw turns upside down every so often, so the floor would become the ceiling and vice versa. Then there's another in which players run across this gigantic sphere, but there's a much smaller sphere orbiting the big one, so what ensues are these insane battles in which people on both spheres are shooting all over the place. All of this definitely keeps things fresh and exciting, and seeing as how developer Human Head plans to put at least 8-10 maps into the game, we fully expect them to somehow make use of Prey's most popular features, in particular the portals that allow us to walk between different environments and better yet, blast opponents on the other side.

Prey: Hands-On (News)

Jun 21, 2006

It may not receive the same amount of attention as Half-Life 2 or Halo 3, but 2K Games' Prey has been on our must have list ever since we spied it at E3 2005. This bad ass looking FPS is probably not going to do much to advance its genre, but it's got just about everything we could ask for; slimy and evil looking aliens, lots of cool weapons, eight person multiplayer (a weak number, but we'll take it), and a different type of main character. It just looks like a fun game, and while we can't vouch for its single player campaign, we did go a few rounds with its enjoyable multiplayer component.

Prey (Preview)

Feb 28, 2006

You know how some games have that one pivotal thing? Shooting through walls with the Rail Gun in Red Faction, dealing tough love to Headcrabs wielding Half-Life's crowbar, the sheer vastness of the armies you command in the Total War games ... they're all cool elements with real sucker punch potential. Now, imagine four or five of these "one things" crammed into a single game. That's Prey. Both the shooter genre and the concept of "alien" have been re-imagined. You are Tommy, an embittered ...

As we outlined in our recent 360 preview, Prey is no ordinary space-based FPS.

And we've got some gameplay footage to prove it. In the movie you'll see a variety of weapons including the Spirit Bow and an Acid Gun that uses alien blood as ammo. There are also special walkways that allow your ...
