    Is it possible to buy the game and NOT download it now? I'm on holiday and my net connection won't handle the sheer volume of data until I get home in a week.

    yes i had it a few years ago when it first cam out, the only i like was the beggining in the bar, as soon as the game started it wasn't very fun. I think the shooting is messed up and the whole "spirit" mode doesn't do anything for me...but hey 4.95 inst bad even for a crap game....to each his own!

    I bought it just in principal. I realized I must have given away or sold my original Prey game, so for $5 on Steam I'll have it indefinitely. Definitely worth a replay at some point, especially for $5!

    I used to listen to Art Bell and George Noory on Coast to Coast Am a talk radio show where they talk about UFOs, Ghosts, Paranormal things even secrety societies and Religion. Well I remember a long time ago he was talking about being involved in a video game and now that I purchased Prey I hear Art Bell on it in the talk radio. I haven't really made it that far in the game but I think it's more a game for fans of Coast to Coast and the paranormal. Like I notice the hero is an indian and they talk about indian spirituality and legends on Coast to Coast as well as the ufo thing any way I agree the gameplay is average and nothing exciting but I'll play it just for the story which seems interesting so far.
