The art direction has me to think of 1 thing, Mass Effect with a tiny touch of Star Wars 2 were they hunt the assassin.
I am super happy that we play as a bounty hunter and not some generic space marine.
Hopefully the character is somewhat similair to Riddick but less arrogant lol
If the trailer has any hint of what the gameplay is gonna be like then wow!
The running momentum, the awesome high tech scanner for various into, the boots...etc. crazy stuff!
IMO, this could very well be one of my favorite sci fi games if done well, along with the awesome Mass Effect series.
I can not see one single negative thing from this (until gameplay).
Now I hated the direction Prey 1 was, but I am glad they changed it into this, has more heavy sci fi to it and cooler and sleeker look.
Definitely hyped up for this title, like the main character design as well, has that Sam Fisher flare to it.
This is NOT Prey. Has NOTHING to do with Prey, except that it's dark, shiny and an FPS.
All that said, it looks AWESOME! I've always wanted to play a great Bounty Hunter game set in a Blade Runner-esq world, on an alien planet, all with Johnny Cash covering Soundgarden in the background.
Futuristic western? where did you get that from? lol
Just because Johnny Cash is singing his tune in the trailer doesnt mean its western.
Its Mass Effect style.
You got a Sheriff, you got bounties and you got weapons. Although having Sheriff doesn't necessary make it a western, outside of US, a Sheriff is most likely been recognized for a western. Therefore, it might be a western. I don't know how that idea is that far fetched, since it has been done in other medium.
But it has no western touch to it, its not the "cowboy" western/sci fi, but I definitely can see the whole sheriff, deputy (badge in the trailer), that is cool.
I dont understand why he has that badge since he is a bounty hunter, ah well.
I love the concept of it compared to the boring generic soldiers we get to play these days.

He was abducted by the aliens from the first Prey, and it's likely (basing this *all* off the trailer btw) that he was a deputy back on Earth.
...never said it was the same character. He's clearly being abducted by the same aliens in the beginning of this trailer (perhaps during the same harvest that you fight off in Prey). I think it's pretty clear that he was a LEO in his old life, prior to becoming a space bounty hunter. :)
Such a weird spin-off from the original plot. I'm certain it's going to tie together more than people are expecting it to though.. it has to! This is totally an entirely different game no matter how you wrap your head around it. The more I think about it, the more I'm okay with that. I enjoyed Prey but it wasn't great anyway. More of the same would have been pretty dull by now.
Yeah, it certainly seems rather far removed from the original game. The trailer was pretty cool thoguh, very nice visauls. I'm hoping that they tie the two games together in some way though, even if it's something so simple as leaving hints to that it is in fact the same universe.

We already got a bit of that in this trailer. I'm pretty sure there will be more. They've already said that Tommy appears in the game as well.
You're reading way too much into a CG trailer. You should not be trying to identify gameplay here. Hints, sure.. but seriously.. you're just setting yourself up for a let down.

No no, I definitely am not checking any connections and expecting what the CGI was showing.
I am just saying, IF the CGI is ANY "hint" of various ideas of elements the gameplay will offer, then great.
Thats all I am saying, nothing more, nothing less.
I have no idea how the gameplay will be like, nobody knows, so I am not expecting CGI to cross over to gameplay lol

Commented on 2011-06-04 18:55:12Its like Pitch Black, the marshal was going for Riddick, but then he wasent a marshal at all, he was a bounty hunter and a junkie.

Commented on 2011-06-04 21:18:24I think I read that Prey 2 isnt about the same character at all, pretty much a reboot.
Its all here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prey_%28video_game%29

I found the plot into http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prey_2
Hmm, well it sounds interesting to say the least.
But I am glad we are playing as a space bounty hunter, love the idea.

Have Mirrors Edge + action shooter + augmented character features + Mass Effect art direction, perfect really.
As much as I wish they could show it off at E3, I am sure we have to settle down with the trailer we got and get something later.
