Re: Prey will not even start! Please help!
No Prey does not suck at all. It might not be everyone's cup of tea, since it is very single player based. But the campaign is amazing. The story is great and VERY well told (the whole thing feels like a movie), the guns were all interesting and unique, the gravity/portal system destroyed any chance of the game being generic or too similar to Doom 3/Quake 4, the level design was genius, the puzzles were fun and not too hard that they hurt the gameplay, etc. I never played Multiplayer because by the time I bought this game the community had already died out, but I heard it wasn't so great or bad, just decent and not living up to the hype it had.

Regardless, you might not prefer Prey, but that certainly does not mean that the game "sux" by some universal fact as if your opinion rules all.

In the end, it really just depends on how much you care about multiplayer when compared to how much you care about single player. In my opinion, single player is much more important because the community multiplayer will die out eventually in games (just like it did in Prey); single player will always stay strong if the developers pull it off right (again, just like they did in Prey).



Anyway, I cannot attach the DX Diag file to my post because the file is too large. Regardless, my computer used to run Prey fine so I'm not sure that is a huge deal (its not like the game is just incompatible with my system).
