In prey you had to think more because you could walk everyway.

So what makes this game (demo) stand out against the average FPS?

This game has new and unique gameplay and effects. The portal boxes and worm holes, the cool and somewhat dizzying magnetic walkways and the gravity changing switches. My favorite was the portal that transport the character to the small stone in the glass containment and made the character small and you run around a small rock upside down and downside up battling three enemies. That was mind boggling. :D

It's new, revolutionary and simply wicked. I'm still playing over and over.

Athough it kind of remind me of Turok and Quake being put together and added with new effects.

I love this game already!

simply put, not only do things attack you from the floor, but you have to put more thought into things when your walking up the wall or are on the cieling, the enemies can attack you from any angle. looks like its got a good story so far.

you can watch a trailer from here, without having to sign up to sh$tplanet.

Dang! I loved the demo! Why did they let me play it when the full version's not out for another two weeks?
Getting sucked into an alien craft while a juke box plays Don't Fear the Reaper has got to one of the coolest gaming experiences I've ever played through. Cool stuff.
The gravity effects are really cool, too. Along with the whole spirit walk option. If the rest of the game is anything like the demo, it's going to rule.
Finally an FPS that is INNOVATIVE! Suck it Valve! Damn Half-Life 2 boring same-old-same-old junk.

I wasn't looking forward to playing the demo, but wow was I impressed when I did! It's easily the most innovative FPS since HL2 and its gravity gun. I'll echo the sentiments above re: the orb shootout. It was truly mind-blowing. Think Psychonauts with a harder edge and more frantic action.

On the down side, the enemy AI was nothing special. But the environment was the star of the show.

I hope someone would be able to crack this game before it's launch and will have some mods and stuff then.

I hope enough people will have the decency to buy a copy so that we get to see more games developed like this one.

Oh , you mean some can actually hack the game and copy it? Piracy?

I'm sure this game would sell really well and gives the developers more funds to create another great game.

If every game was developed for as long as this one has I would hope all games are awesome.

Yea. It was very different from what I've played before. The spirit walk thing is really cool also.

Hands down the best demo Ive played in ages. It already went Gold so perhaps maybe they have already greenlighted a sequel. Great Demo. :D
