    The movie is surprisingly subdued in its pacing, its characterizations, and its go-for-broke sensibilities.

    It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

    I don't usually watch sci-fi series, but I was told Debra Messing was in a good show before "Will & Grace" so I searched for it. Well...Prey actually is a good programme! I managed to have all of the episodes of the only series and I really enjoyed watching them. It's a shame they didn't make other seasons. This show had a lot of potentials ad was very gripping! And I didn't like they interrupted it so brutally either! Wander how they make their choices at ABC.... I'm from Italy and we didn't even have the chance to have it aired on TV. What if they made a sequel now? Would it be so weird? I just want to know what happened right after!

    Overall, from a visual point, "Prey" is a good looking game. Boths from a technical standpoint and artistic. The game looks very good running on the "Doom 3" engine, and all of the different things it does with the engine makes it look rather good in its own favor. The levels overall look rather good and refined, however, where the game looks very good is in the artistic standpoint. It does a decent job with the organic life fixed with metal theme that many games are doing these days. And the native American areas as well as the alien ship looks very good in many ways. Making "Prey" as rather great looking game. There is some frame-rate issues here and there. However, there few and far between. And if you have played "Quake IV" on the 360, the other 360 game running on the "Doom 3" engine, you know that it could have been much worse. Since "Prey" didn't perform that well on the 360.From an Audio standpoint, "Prey" does an OK job. To its favor, the soundtrack is an amazing on. Composed of a very well made original score, that wells perfect for the game. The dialog is decent and the voice acting is also very well done. With a decent script to back up the game. However, the weapons in the game sound very under powered. The aliens speak English, which is a strange thing, and have bad ascents. The game also has some very few audio bugs, however, there very few. And chances are you may not even encounter them.After you finish "Prey", which will take you about 8-12 hours given your skills in the genre. You are given a multi-player mode online. However, the multi-player mode is rather broken in many ways. The "Doom 3" engine has never succeeded in the multi-player arena. And "Prey" shows this with full force. That is if you can actually play the multi-player, since the online servers are rather lag at all times. With many hold-ups all the time threw out every session. The only reason I could see someone playing the multi-player, is to get the achievements that reside in the multi-player mode.As far as achievements go, the game is very easy. You will get the majority of the full thousand on your first play threw the game. There is one left over for beating the game on Cherekee ( the hardest difficulty ). And the rest are achievable in the multi-player. Overall, you can get most of the game achievements rather quickly. And can get nearly all of then within a weekends time.In the end, "Prey" is a good game. Its a decent shooter, thats delivers a standard experience from what games of this genre deliver. However, its game play issues and different takes that its takes on the shooter formula don't really work all that differently then what the game was trying the achieve. And if the game had done a better job of presenting and allocating those ideas it would have made for a much better experience. However, the game does deliver a decent story, as well as enjoyable game play. And you can play threw the game in a decent weekends play threw. Making "Prey" a decent game to knock out in a weekends time.Overall, "Prey" is a decent and fun game. Thats a bit too strait forward for its own good.

    My wife and I enjoyed this show, but what a challenge it was to keep track of it.  It seems that ABC kept moving it around, pre-empting it with other shows, and generally making it very difficult to keep track of when the next episode was to be aired.  You had to really want to watch this show in order to find it worth the trouble of doing so.  Of course it got very poor ratings.  How could it do otherwise, when it was made so difficult for the audience to keep up with it?   I have to think that someone at ABC very much wanted for this show to fail.  They did the same thing to TimeCop (1997), a TV series based on the movie of the same name.

    Prey was a terrific series. A great story with a cast that was incredible together. I highly recommend it. Though, one season to end with a cliffhanger was not a fair shot, fans are fighting for the series. The cast, the fans and the series deserves a chance to prove itself.
