This week, Critical Reception takes a look at the 3D Realms originated, Human Head-developed and 2K Games-published gravity-defying first-person-shooter Prey, which is available for the PC and Xbox 360, and is seeing a good initial reception from many game reviewers. As the start of the overview notes: "Boasting an solid push forward in the FPS genre, especially considering the neat gravity gimmick that plays into much of the gameplay, Prey boasts an 85% rating average from game reviewers thus far, according to GameRankings.com."
