Prey Awards

[Joe Siegler]

The reception to the Prey footage that's been making the rounds recently has been fantastic. Folks are loving it! But that's not all - people who are handing out E3 awards have been loving Prey, too. We've got two awards Prey has won from the recent E3 show.

First is Game Revolutions' "Best Comeback (http://gr.bolt.com/articles/e3/e3_2005/awards/awards2.htm)" award. GR had this to say about Prey..

"Prey somehow managed to escape its vaporware destiny thanks to the crew at Human Head studios, who managed to bring it back to life and dress it in all kinds of new, groovy effects. Frankly, it was the coolest first-person shooter at the show."

Second we have the "Best Shooter (http://gamesdomain.yahoo.com/feature/118658)" award from Games Domain. Here's what GD had to say about Prey..

"Back (quite literally) from the dead, this 3D Realms shooter was cancelled in the '90s. What we saw at E3, though, was most definitely a game of 2005. Or possibly 2006. Shooters with realistic physics are ten a penny these days, but Prey deliberately twists and subverts the law of gravity to produce environments that aren't like anything else we've ever seen."

Yeah, definately congrats! With any luck, by the end of next year you'll have "Best game of the year" award and "best game ever spot" on certain magazine and website lists instead of HL2.

I have very high hopes for this game and I'm quite sure I won't be disappointed. http://forums.3drealms.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

I'm glad to see Prey getting this kind of attention. It's well deserved.

As for Prey, happy to see many non-Prey followers getting excited over it!

I don't know and don't care about Battlefield II (because it's not my genre), but F.E.A.R. is a game I'm looking most forward to. It's on my TOP list of shooters, just like Prey! Hell, it's a MONOLITH game after all (BLOOD anyone?). It will be very scary and bloody, I'm sure. http://forums.3drealms.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

I think HH deserves credit for making such a good game, out of something that was thought to be vapourware for a long time. Congrats HH you deserve it. http://forums.3drealms.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

P.S. Thanks to 3DR for giving a helping hand to someone like HH in the industry. http://forums.3drealms.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Exactly, most just give credits to games which has shown nothing but the graphics. For example:
Elders Scrolls IV: Oblivion is winning award after award and the only thing that was shown where the graphics (which are great btw). I wonder how you can judge a game by that. http://forums.3drealms.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif

So I am happy that prey has recieved at least part of what they deserved. http://forums.3drealms.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/thumbsup.gif

DNF has already won a lot of awards, and I'm sure it'll win many more before getting released.

Best Shooter? Does that mean you had a playable demo at E3?
