Prey Review "Buy, Wait for Sale, Rent, Never Touch?"

[@ACGreviews]

Thanks folks always appreciate the shares, likes and so forth. Xbox One game version was mainly played(thanks to the patron for the copy 2 days early, not review copy), pic posted in discord as normal for proof Sadly some times the PS4 wouldn't sync well with the capture card. Sorry for the stutters. Game does not have them. When playing it with patrons we found at least 5-7 different points that would effect the end game. Not sure how many endings there are. While there were a couple sound issues the game just got better and if you experience the first 5 hours you have seen nothing. 10 still not nearly everything. Its that last 1/3rd that is insane.

[@clintonmaher6930]

ACG Does the frame rate hold steady on Xbox one S? Cheers

[@ACGreviews]

yes very well. A couple drops in specific spots. Both consoles have a couple. But very playable and pretty damn solid

[@clintonmaher6930]

ACG great thanks :)

[@1Grandhustler]

ACG You need to do a video on little nightmares ps4!!!

[@Wez633]

I'm sure you do , unless they don't agree with You.

[@101mylo]

the analogies this guy comes up with in all his reviews are legendary

[@ACGreviews]

lol glad you like them

[@tarnlad5768]

more sub,s on there were pal.

[@LoveNLoot]

did he say warwick davis on cocaine

[@Thaibiohazard123]

ACG is now my go-to review. You bring up the content faster than most critics, and yet so detailed. Appreciate your work.

[@ACGreviews]

thanks sir tell others if you can!

[@jameschaggar3535]

sub for sub anyone building my channel could do with help

[@Thaibiohazard123]

I'll check it out, thanks.

[@kenterminateddq5311]

I think Biohazard meant that ACG is his go-to video game critic. I'll be honest, u are better than Angry Joe, Karak. His reviews focus way too much on comedy

[@TheDevonnD]

Faster is not always better. I'm not impliying that his content nor this review may be bad. But Bethesda just started giving copies 24 hours ago, and unless he hasn't sleep it would not be possible to get a review this fast. Just saying.

[@_GuiltyGhost]

Definitely a game for those who are patient and enjoy slow-burn entertainment, action-junkies are better off looking somewhere else

[@AbbreviatedReviews]

Always nice to see a game that people weren't epecting a lot from actually turning out to be really enjoyable. I'm definitely going to pick this up because it falls right in the middle of a genre of games that doesn't see anywhere near enough love. Probably because it's one of the toughest game types to get right...

[@ACGreviews]

agreed it was such a great surprise

[@beezusKritso]

Shut up nerd.

[@kimbaptempura4073]

What are you talking about? Did you play Prey? I finished it on the 360 and it was an OK shooter with some cool physics but once the gimmick wore off all you had was a decent, however mediocre shooter. The mystical prey 2 bounty hunter game was something that was never going to live up to expectations. The graphics, game play and scope shown were never going to be possible on last generation's hardware, especially consoles. Also, the game just didn't seem that interesting, reminded me of Evolution. Hunting down aliens...really? How would that work? Chase alien into arena, fight alien boss style, rinse, repeat. You want to play a game that doesn't exist and if it had would have fallen far short of expectations.

[@denverwalker5723]

Kimbap Tempura Preach it brother.. That game (in my opinion) is one of the most overrated games of all time. It’s up there with Half Life 2 (don’t kill me) the incomplete edition. Prey on the 360 was just ok.. No more no less. It was not this revolutionary experience that would change the way we play FPS games today. If you love it meh alrighty then more power to ya. To see someone act like a total fool about a game that was borderline above average is completely nuts to me. Point is fuck off for attacking that dude because he enjoyed a fucking video game that you didn’t care for

[@denverwalker5723]

Kimbap Tempura Looks like I directed the ending toward you but no it was intended for the obvious dick in the room haha

[@CaptainEggcellent]

Bioshock Infinity triggered me more than it should have. Great review as always.

[@ACGreviews]

I have no done it since my joke on the podcast lol

[@DeepStateDonny]

This is why I love ACG. While IGN will be giving us reviews in progress due to the no early reviews from Bethesda....ACG still hooks it up. I appreciate Karak. Your the best.

[@ACGreviews]

Dude I almost got in a car and drove a state away. LOL. Thankfully a patron got me a very early copy

[@DeepStateDonny]

Hahaha that's awesome!

[@bigseek00]

ACG give that person a keg lol

[@davidstubbs2361]

Pars R ign sucks

[@Jordan-rs5hv]

press follows rules. KZbin free for all. There's a difference. IGN does suck, but this isn't a valid reason why.

[@iProvisionals]

Never understood how short reviews get views. I would gladly spend 15 minutes to help me make a decision on whether to spend £40-50

[@ACGreviews]

me either

[@franlovelsimic8421]

Because they're among the first ones. They lack quality because its rushed. This, on the other hand, is a proper review.

[@czproductions]

Love your reviews because they never have spoilers in them. For some reason KZbinrs like Angry Joe seem to constantly spoil the game even though reviews are usually used to determine if you should play the game. Fantastic quality as always ACG!

[@halo45600]

CZ Productions Angry Joe is pretty bad. Most of his reviews are super long but full of "funny" sketches instead of any real content. Plus he hardly reviews anything. ACG is way better than him.

[@cybershowdown9078]

CZ Productions I agree with you, angry Joe seems more like a streamer that releases chopped up videos of his stream. Im not even sure you can consider him a lets player

[@markokecman1177]

I still like watching Angry Joe sometimes... he's funny....

[@venomart4768]

Brian Griffin ppl watch review to see the content not the skits in general

[@scottyben191]

This game is a masterpiece imho.

[@dragonfable5231]

I was wondering if I should buy it or not then your video pop up immediately, thanks bro.

[@ACGreviews]

you bet

[@Malouco]

Tri Xuan so are u?

[@rmtheg234]

You should, it's fun and at the same time, a hard game to play.

[@leeemousine]

Like what?

[@KyleECHOLS]

holy crap what a great review. Just unsubbed IGN and Gamespot (8Spot lol)

[@ACGreviews]

thanks so much man

[@dblackraven9069]

Haha (8spot ), 😂 that's a great one Kyle William. Will take that. I'm starting to Prey right now probably all ready 2 hours in and I am having so much fun!

[@TheT0nedude]

You were subbed to those garbage channels, condolences.

[@HappyConsoleGamer]

I love watching a really cool review on a game that I forget about!

[@ElGaby323]

HappyConsoleGamer you're awesome man. Love your channel 👍

[@TheGUSTAVORED]

Yooooo Happeeeeyyyyy! :D

[@Malouco]

HappyConsoleGamer Hold me in your arms

[@Ink129]

Exactly my experience while watching this review.

[@dwaynehoover1756]

Would love for you to be on International Podcast!

[@highlandrab19]

1:16 "bioshock infinity" you just did that to make me leave an angry comment didn't you?

[@ACGreviews]

there is a very large chance

[@kimbaptempura4073]

While I enjoyed the Bioshock games, I wish they were more like Prey in terms of challenge.

[@gus8426]

Kimbap Tempura is this game hard? Havent got it yet since i was a fan of the og prey and was disappointed of the turn of events leading to this game.

[@fallingdownholes]

Infinite is the only bioshock game I did not enjoy

[@kylecrane3296]

fallingdownholes It's bullshit how people are worshipping infinite, but saying that bioshock 2 is bad. Bioshock 2 is better than infinite. So goddamn overrated.

[@xehanort3623]

You are the VIP my guy.

[@ACGreviews]

glad you like the stuff man

[@pavith3817]

Xehanort 36 *mvp

[@Malouco]

ACG kiss me

[@oscargomez4970]

yeah you're the VIP, the WTF, IRS, NCWA, ESRB, LGBTQ, ESPN, NRA, CBS, BBC, DMV. And also the MVP

[@WhiskeyTango76s]

Don't forget BBW

[@TheUberSuperNova]

It's gotten to the point where i don't even acknowledge other reviewers on KZbin, i just come straight to ACG, good video dude i will definitely be picking this game up now :)

[@EpsteinsRope]

Angry Joe is good too.

[@TheUberSuperNova]

Angry Joe doesn't even play games anymore he just gets OJ & Del to play them, can't trust a reviewer that doesn't experience the games he reviews lol the last review i watched on the AJ show was Kingdom come after that i was pretty much done with him.

[@legokangaroo5010]

I really don't trust this guy too much, some of the shit he recommends is straight up bat shit crazy, personaly mac from worth a buy is the most trust worthy.

[@TycoTyrannus]

Im having a hard time getting into his long 25 cent worded narratives. Its like hes trying to impress a past teacher. Maybe what im experiencing is too heavily scripted and fast paced that it just doesn't feel authentic. Ya I think I put my finger on it. He never pauses. Reading a script very fast that he ran thru a thesaurus. Maybe pepper in some gameplay footage of yer normal voice as it encounters the game live not scripted? I don't know. Informative though. *shrugs*

[@peterjs007]

This wasn't on my radar - but certainly is now.

[@CowCommander1]

Same, I tried the demo today and I was surprised how fun and interesting the game was.

[@jasondp3546]

peterjs007 was the game any good

[@EricaEE1]

I'm really appreciating how you remind me of an ign review with the tidy lay out and good coverage but without being paid off by the game company ruining the objectivity.

[@hazzadorgamin1219]

Wow you are Damm fast in your reviews.When it comes to video game reviews you are Mr Dependable 😎

[@ACGreviews]

I work hard for that 1 cent

[@SpidahhhMan]

ACG I love you.

[@rufescenteagle7299]

Dj Singh you should check out angry joe show

[@arthurmorgan7086]

RufescentEAGLE why? If I wanted to listen to a man scream and shout I'd go to a nut house

[@rufescenteagle7299]

Jimmy O Sullivan don't tell me you can't handle it?

[@saintsr0w1]

This game never seemed to get the recognition it deserved. I think it just had alot of bad circumstances during it's release. people were upset that it was such a drastic change from prey 2's trailer, it released kinda soon after big game releases like zelda botw, hzd etc. Then bethesda stopped giving out review copies which pissed everyone off. so either people just ignored it or hated it from the get go. I was one of those people that didn't want to touch it because I wanted prey 2 instead. I was so wrong. I bought it for $20 during black friday and couldn't believe how superb it is. I regret not paying full price because it deserves it. If you want a great singleplayer game the likes of system shock, bioshock, deus ex etc. this is it. The level design and gameplay systems are so open ended and enjoyable. It has amazing set pieces, graphics, level design, sound design etc. Hands down the best story driven fps game I've played since bioshick. In fact I'm currently playing through system shock 2 again cause of how much prey reminded me how good those types of games are and surprisingly there's quite a bit in prey that is better than the likes of bioshock 1, system shock 2 etc. looking at the meta score that is around 70 is criminal. To me this is no doubt a game that will recieve it's due in the years to comes much like MGS2, Dragons dogma, Windwaker etc. this game is worth every penny, GET IT!

[@clappedoutgamer5115]

great review man. I like how u break it down into sections. was unsure about this game but might grab it now

[@ACGreviews]

thanks dingo

[@MajorBashir2]

This is what we call a review, not gemspot or ign's half assed reviews.

[@jurrgames309]

Yes your reviews are always on time! keep it up!

[@ACGreviews]

thanks

[@BoomstickGaming]

I personally DESPISE jump scares but find the actual gameplay appealing. Do you think its possible for someone to overcome that aspect or get used to it and enjoy the core gameplay or should I expect cheap scares for hours on end and eventually regret my purchase? EXAMPLE: I was barely able to finish Metro Last Light because of gnarly jump scares but did finish it but that would be my absolute max tolerance. Thanks for the coverage!

[@DavidM_10]

Subscribed because you got this review out so quickly and went into so much depth without spoiling a thing. Good work.

[@ACGreviews]

thanks David

[@lukeism2]

This channel is becoming bigger then ign and gamespot

[@darrylcampbell9733]

I love it already, an hour in and I still haven't left the first area because of that awesome glass. 😍

[@ACGreviews]

lol

[@darrylcampbell9733]

ACG great review as always for a great game as well.

[@augustwest5356]

D Campbell I played that 1 hour demo for 4 and a half hours and loved every damn second. I played it sunday night and this has been the longest week waiting for the full game.

[@sardonicgoat]

This is the first game review of yours that I've watched, and I must say what a breath of fresh air you are for game reviews. I especially appreciate the way you do not dumb anything down nor are you verbose. Look forward to watching your future reviews. You've gained a fan for as long as you continue reviewing games.

[@ACGreviews]

my sincere thanks man

[@WirierBen300]

It's such a shame that this game ended up being called Prey, because by the looks of it (and from what I've played so far) this is a great game...that many people are going to ignore just because Prey 2 didn't happen instead. Oh, and Bethesda's bullshit review policies, combined with that little bit of douchery with the Prey trademark lately, and Denuvo being used on the PC version (despite the performance actually being really good this time, unlike Dishonored 2) it's gonna make even more people turn their back at this : (

[@helsharidy123]

Ben300 What's Denuvo? edit: nevermind, I like it.

[@dwightdwindley3141]

To be honest, if people don't try the game for unimportant reasons like that then fuck em

[@Ink129]

I think you are absolutely right, unfortunately. Well, with that said I hope Bethesda's review policy will come back and bite them in the ass in some form or another, because it is so anti-consumer and I don't want other game companies to follow suit. Bethesda does make good games, though, and this game seems to be one of them.

[@DarkGenova]

I'll actually buy it. I didn't play the first Prey though, and from what i've seen its not my jam. This looks pretty solid, and its been a while since i've bought a game full price. I tend to wait for GOTY editions and sales. Bethesda earned my money , despite my issues with their review policy.

[@jakus55]

Yes, the original Prey wasn't a lot like this. I really enjoyed the first one's style, but this game looks very good and a lot different from what the original offered.

[@InMaTeofDeath]

I'm playing my first run on hard and it's been great fun and I'm liking how it doesn't push you to pick certain skills. You don't unlock the alien skills right away but I've left them completely untouched and I'm still doing fine i'm not sure how much is left but I'm sure i've passed the halfway point. I think next time I might try and do only alien powers to see if that works just as well.

[@eaw0913]

Your reviews are amazing. I've literally never used reviews as a basis for buying a game before until you. Very thorough and cover the important stuff. You put to shame the BS major game sites throw together. Thanks for changing the game up. I even watch your reviews for games I have no interest in just because lol.

[@ACGreviews]

glad you liked them man.

[@ReadyAimFire_]

Arkane delivers, as always. Its one of my fav devs ever. Good job and thanks for review!

[@nicholasdavie6357]

So much better than IGN oh m god

[@raketsteffe]

Zack Smith Prey 2017 was fantastic

[@fish4198]

It's so nice to find a KZbinr with informative content who doesn't have an obnoxious intro sequence or scream at the audience like a maniac.

[@MakenshiCritiques]

nothing about this game immediately screams GOTY, but it might well be mine (I've played horizon and persona 5). No one but arkane makes games like these anymore. It reminded me of the first time I played the first deus ex which is an experience that even eidos Montreal weren't able to recreate with human revolution. I'm not surprised to be honest, a lot of the development team are former Ion storm and looking glass guys. These guys are masters of emergent gameplay and narrative, simulation, environmental storytelling and sandboxes.

[@FestiveRocket]

As soon as I heard Bethesda "released" a new game and the opening day demo was out, I just needed to try it. This is game just amazing, graphics, gameplay, all of that. I love the most when I am fighting an operator and I float down from above and smash it so hard that it falls onto the ground. *Heffy4Life*

[@kayDawgTV]

Even thought I'm a bit late to the party, your sentiment is totally understood regarding Deus Ex. I had the same feeling of immersion in both games. These gems are so very rare (in this case, it took 17 years before something as succesful came by.

[@joaodobbin]

I stopped following like 99% of review channels, but man you run the best one out there! Coming back here because Prey is discounted at PSN and you should get a comission because your review helped me a lot!

[@mikes.8647]

Been following your reviews for a few months: -The rating scale is just the best I could imagine. -Clearly divided thematic sections for each aspect of the game. Bull's eye. -Very cool choice of words, nice balance between humor and seriousness, plus the much appreciated "not taking myself too serious". Perfect duration. -Variety and speed: release date reviews for indie, platform and AAA games. You, Sir, are my number one reviewer at the moment, with Jum Jum keeping the second place for being equally unique [and so much fun]. Thanks!

[@ACGreviews]

thanks mike

[@shaunakdeshpande3837]

Clicked fast af

[@vendetta3109]

#1 place i go for reviews now, and has been for the last 6 months since I found you! I go back and watch all your reviews of games I have just to hear your thoughts. So glad I found this channel and don't have to rely on shallow 3min reviews that don't discuss the game at all. Your poetic and insightful style of reviews are refreshing. Thanks and keep it up!

[@Eszuran]

This game looks original and imaginative and FUN. I'll be buying it. BTW: ACG, I think that at the moment you're the most professional reviewer. Your stuff is about games and not about yourself, you delve deep into them, and you target, I think, more adult audience than the rest. I appreciate it.

[@ACGreviews]

thanks

[@hoogerman8]

Prey *looks* original and imaginative and FUN and for the most part it is but it falls awfully short on all fronts. The gameplay is kinda sloppy, the level design isn't clever enough, there aren't enough weapons or interesting powers, and the game is a pretty obvious poor man's rip off of Looking Glass games like System Shock and Deus Ex. And yeah ACG is 110% honest in his reviews and he digs deeper into games than most reviewers have any business delving, but in some bizarre way I think he isn't tough *enough* on the games he reviews. Still, I really admire the apparent lack of pessimism in his reviews.

[@Lukerwdrums]

half life 3 spelled p.r.e.y hahaha that killed me awesome job as ever Karak

[@ACGreviews]

:)

[@Anomalous602]

ACG does the main character talk or is he a mute???

[@FalloutWanderer-uq5sh]

Yes and no. Not during gamepay, like talking to himself but there are many points you do hear the protagonist speak. Awesome game, trust me, check it out. I was blown away by it.

[@Anomalous602]

Fallout Wanderer 2077 thanks and I'll definitely get this game.

[@FalloutWanderer-uq5sh]

You're welcome. Get it ASAP and do not read or watch anything more on the game if you can help it. This is the kind of game that knowing too much before hand will only hurt the overall experience. A mind-bending story, a lot of mystery and plot twists to look forward to, so watch out for spoilers. I'm not even finished the game yet, guessing I've finished about 50-60% of the main story, with 40-50 hrs logged in, almost a dozen side objectives/quests I still need to do and I'm still coming across more side objectives the further along I get into the game. My advice is when you finally play the game, take your time, it starts a bit slow however continually gets better as you go along, stick with it and you'll be rewarded. There's at least 2 endings, and with how the level design, gameplay and skill tree upgrades work, there's a bunch of replay value as well. So far with what I've experienced, IMHO, Prey is a GOTY 2017 contender.

[@JohnnyJJP911]

just happened to realize prey was out, didn't know when it came out, looked for a review, as this was posted 10 mins ago. 😂coincidence? i think not

[@ACGreviews]

I plan for everything

[@Malouco]

Johnny Palumbo the universe speaks to u about video games.....priorities are important to God.

[@Relayzy1]

Johnny Palumbo there is no thing as a coincidence

[@williamg3165]

How in the hell did this guy get this review out so fast? Wasn't it not released early for review? Plus, he managed to evaluate all three versions of it too. This guy is amazingly assiduous. I don't think there is any independent reviewer (or any reviewer period) who works as hard or as deftly, as Karak does! Bravo, sir!

[@ACGreviews]

thanks!

[@EtherMagic]

Prey is on sale at Best Buy for only $6.99 right now.

[@siamak383]

ACG, you are the most professional, detailed reviewer on the net and youtube. I don't even know how you keep this level of consistency but much respect to you my friend. I truly hope you never give up the channel as you have my sub for as long as the channel is up brother.

[@ACGreviews]

I take this shit serious lol. And thanks!

[@ApstractMusic]

Damn you, Karak. Now I'll have to buy a game I wasn't even all that interested in at first. Amazing review, as always. No idea how you can keep up this insanely high standard, but all of us most certainly appreciate it.

[@Irochi]

You have indeed the most direct and to the point reviews in youtube. Without filling, without getting off you way... just your opinion and why and expressed in a way that makes is enjoyable to hear. Excellent work. :)

[@ACGreviews]

thanks!

[@sakuragi1062]

Thanks for the review acg as always!

[@ACGreviews]

sure

[@MyNdFrEaK420]

Karak man articulate and eloquent as always. Channel finally blowing up u deserve it

[@t-revstastetube8900]

Just bought this yesterday and I absolutely love it! Great reviews keep it up

[@wonekawa]

You have the MOST reliable reviews of anyone doing them on KZbin. Thanks for another!

[@elberethgilthoniel1397]

You can always count on Karak for a review that gives you the whole story about a game. Great content!

[@yesitsmecsd]

you've been my go to for game reviews for a while now, was happy to hear your channel mentioned on Casual Shenanigans Podcast earlier today! Hope it brings some new viewers your way, your way with words is magical!

[@ACGreviews]

in what regards was I mentioned?

[@yesitsmecsd]

ACG It was in praise of your "Buy, Wait for sale, Rent or never touch" approach to reviews as opposed to the typical 1-10 scale so many use.

[@yesitsmecsd]

ACG it's a brief mention but a mention nonetheless... it's Casual Shenanigans Gaming Episode 189 at 27:14

[@The2ndRogue]

Thank you for not being IGN.

[@morzanthegod3186]

You're honestly the best game reviewer. You actually care about the games you play and seem to play them like a normal person instead of looking at it like a movie critic only pointing out the bad things. Btw this game is amazing. It reminds me of half life and elder scrolls with some borderlands mixed in due to the skills trees. It took all the things i loved from games great games and mashed it together in an elegant fashion.

[@ourlordandsavioredupes4102]

Damn you got this out the DAY it came out. Nice job.

[@Uhhhhhnanananaa]

Our Lord and Savior Edupes these reviewers usually get the game a week or so earlier so they can play it, make the review, edit, then release their videos

[@maskonoroff]

I have to give you your props. I respect your reviews. I watch other youtubers that give reviews but sometimes they take longer. You reviews are short, detailed, and straight to the point. No number system either. The number systems sucks because it all comes down to whether you will buy it or not this is where I come to you for your opinion. All I want to know is should I buy it or not and you always have the answer. I've been watching you for a bit and I applaud your professionalism and consistency of your reviews. I love your review format which I feel should be the standard of most reviews

[@SCREENSTARS43]

Another great review, best game reviewer on KZbin.

[@mrsalty1019]

I'm surprised, i planned to pass this one up, but you've never lead me wrong. I'm also surprised your subs aren't in the mils yet. Spread the word people, you can have detailed reviews without spoilers.

[@ramuelrosales3217]

ACG, in all of your reviews, do you finish the game first or play just a few hours before reviewing it?

[@StoicTrader-]

Ramuel Rosales completes it

[@1invag]

Steve I so what your saying is... this is a very short lol got it

[@biscuitboy1476]

Combed Autumn the game is not short

[@1invag]

Steve I there wasnt any release of the full version released to anyone, if they didn't put it out for review before release it wasn't available to anyone before release... if it was any reviewer could just get hold of a copy and review it. that coupled with the fact he actually said expect 12 hours gameplay from it (I didn't actually realise he said that until I'd already commented I assume it's short)

[@generalkenobi9782]

The only person in this day and age that I'd trust to do game reviews. Thank you for the all the content you pump out!

[@deathrow989]

Karak muh boy delivering the goods.

[@jloost-gamer]

Dude, why did I never check out this channel before? Just checked out this review because the game came out today, and then immediately watched some more reviews and videos. You are so awesome. You notice things, you analyse things, you write and speak about games on an analytical, but also an emotional level. Most of all, you keep your channel YOUR channel. "Maybe subscribe", "like or dislike", this is what I like about you and your channel. Keep up the awesome work man, I'll be busy checking your videos off my to-watch list these next months! :D

[@Alex-bg3ho]

I came into this mostly sour about the bounty hunting Prey that could've been hoping this was bad and you'd tear it a new one. You disappointed me. Now I might even buy this game, and then I might even enjoy playing it. Thanks a lot.

[@SteelFyire]

Just pretend the game is titled "System Shock 3" rather than "Prey"

[@hoogerman8]

God NO!! If Prey is System Shock 3 then that just means they're continuing the trend of regressive sequels with less polish and fewer options than the previous entry. Besides, I hear there's already a System Shock 3 in the works from some of the same blokes who made the last two.

[@CrowPilotGames4Life]

On the basis of this video I have ordered the game. Hitherto I had been put off by bad reviews, but this guy argues a good case. An intelligent and persuasive review beautifully done.

[@foreignsgamingtech]

Great stuff! Definitely looking into getting this a few weeks later, when all the major bugs are gone.

[@Alexthelion93]

foreign's gaming tech And the price lowered.

[@ericnick4498]

Alex Lion You ignored the review didn't you, sad chump.

[@blakewhitlow]

i got it for 36 bucks on pc

[@ericnick4498]

Salami Samurai I haven't encountered any game breaking glitches nor bugs. Enemy designs can be plain at times but the way they warp and how they interact makes them unique or at least different from what I've seen in a while. Perhaps you didn't like the deco style, its subject anyways. Gameplay is smart and intuitive, well place designs which reminds me of Deus Ex or Dishonor. Well the game isn't a horror game but they wanted to create enemies where they would interact in a more different matter then what you'd usually see. All in all I'd say its well worth it.

[@Scud5742]

ACG is my standard rule for game buying/collecting. Appreciate how timely this was, especially with the embargo.

[@L4RENXO]

whoooh creeping up on 300k subs. been here since 75k. bout time you get the attention you deserve

[@ACGreviews]

thanks man

Thanks again brother! You are my go to guy for reviews and that's the best compliment I can possibly give somebody as reviews/opinions are like assholes, everyone has one(hopefully anyways). The thing is, I'm so backed up with games I need to finish- hello Zelda: BOTW on Switch, Little Nightmares PC(amazing), Horizon Zero Dawn (PS4 Pro) and I think to myself this game will most likely get a significant price drop by the time the Steam Winter sale comes along where I'll probably be able to grab it for half off or less. Thanks for doing these again. Cheers!

[@Kishy]

Loved the review as usual!!!

[@ACGreviews]

thanks!

[@WKCockRobin]

Good to see everyone digging this channels reviews. By far the best.

[@Ronnie2787]

Great review man. Picking up my copy today.

[@ACGreviews]

thanks!

[@Droop-e]

ACG love the reviews man! Not too short leaving out key details or not too long just a right amount of time of having every point touched.

[@jasondp3546]

Ronnie2787 was it like bioshock

[@hoogerman8]

people are likening Prey to Bioshock IN SPAAAAAAAAACE!!! But if Bioshock was more focused on combat and System Shock and Deus Ex and Thief were more focused on navigating the levels using a plethora of creative methods, Prey falls faaaaar short on both fronts. The combat's kinda lame and Prey doesn't have near enough options when it comes to exploration. srsly though. I've played it. The resemblance to Bioshock and the Shock series in general is apparent, and Prey is more similar to System Shock than Bioshock. But for one of these metroidvania styled open world sims Prey falls faaaaaar short of the likes of System Shock and Deus Ex or Thief in terms of what options you have to play your way.

Karak was already the best as a baby KZbinr, now he is finally getting the attention he deserves. Just....DON'T...CHANGE.

[@kakokapolei123]

I hear this game being compared to Half-Life a lot, and the entire Half-Life franchise is my absolute favorite franchise of all time, might consider picking this up

[@B1G_Dave]

You had me at System Shock 3. Great review as always Karak!

[@reshmaupadhye9087]

Great review, Karak!

[@Darkreaper71]

Did you even watch it out? lol

[@reshmaupadhye9087]

Zacary Baker​ I actually skipped the graphics and music part since i saw the livestreams and already knew how good it was So i did see it just not completely

[@Darkreaper71]

Just finished it myself, watched the whole thing. Its sad because he's right, that twist at the start would have gotton me good if dumbass me didnt get excited and watched the friggin 1hour demo >_

[@dtalmood]

About to take my last final today, after i'm buying prey Thanks for the great review!

[@BRG0104]

Just got it brand new at my local retailer for 200 MXN Pesos (Around 6 US Dollars)

[@shaynesmithcomedy]

You have surpassed all other sources as the FIRST review I look forward to watching and trust most. Thanks for your hard work!

[@ACGreviews]

thanks

[@Hollobaby1231]

I still am pretty positive i remember Shazzam btw! 😂 awesome review, deff gonna b playing this

[@ctd_audio]

Fellow Gaffer here, love the review Karak. Sold me on the game.. now to find some spare cash, lol. Keep doing what you're doing. You're quickly becoming my go-to reviewer :)

[@ACGreviews]

thanks sir

[@sizzlechestmcmurphy4365]

Love the "Leapin Lanny Poffo" throwaway line. Hehe

[@yungdolo8035]

I watched a minute of this video and stopped because I figured it wouldn’t be a very in depth review and then I watched your Horizon zero dawn review and i honestly feel bad for disregarding your opinion at first because your work is impressive and you talk about the things gamers actually want to know about a game before buying. You have earned my subscription.

[@ACGreviews]

my thanks man

[@marcelmercado7576]

best game reviewer on youtube. hands down. thanks for the great content karak

[@ACGreviews]

you bet

[@erikhendrickson59]

This guy is the master of "run on sentences;" and somehow it just works. Karak's rapid-fire cadence of descriptions of the game he's reviewing accompanied by the often-humorous metaphorical comparisons to similar games/movies creates a review system that simply feels more complete.

[@AmbiKarma]

This game is so good. It's the only game I can think of where you actually want to find out what happened to everyone. Also one of a handful of games where while there are some treasure hunt side quests, most of the side objectives feel more like part of the story, and you actually want to do them. I was hoping you'd bring that up, but you've always done great reviews, and this is no exception.

[@mrcupcake5309]

After seeing Ign and Gamespot poorly written reviews the last few years, and the down fall of angry Joe reviews. i'm glad someone like you exist. i can once again connect and agree with someone about every little fact pointed out and really decide if the game i was eyeballing was worth the money. i used to feel like Angry Joe channel was the place to go, but hes lost whats made him a great reviewer and we needed someone like you to give us the real deal. Thanks for your hard work!

[@ACGreviews]

thanks glad you like them bman

[@Paulwba0]

I want dead space to make come back.

[@fallingdownholes]

I'm glad prey 2 is dead

[@ethanbrock5453]

Bethesda sucks, but Zerglings still are cute. Dream on then cuz it's never going to happen buddy

[@opman4827]

did not expect such a detailed and funny review so fast, and not skip a single beat. amazing content karak!! I'll keep on spreading the word!!

[@ACGreviews]

thanks!

[@onyxtay7246]

"hopped up on an entire Warwick Davis on cocaine." I need to find somewhere to use this in conversation.

[@ACGreviews]

I find its useful at any time. "Hey man my wife is pregnant." "Good lets go do an entire Warwick Davis of cocaine to celebrate"

[@Citrusgeorge]

Best reviews on youtube, bar none. Think I'm going to pick this up tomorrow!

[@brian0057]

I get depressed when people use Bioshock as a comparison while forgetting the monolith that is System Shock.

[@TheT0nedude]

But Monolith didn't develop System Shock.

[@AhmadEdinHodzic]

Did you even watch the review to the end.

[@SleepTheReaper]

I was thinking about getting this last Saturday, ended up getting watchdogs 2 with my new PS4 slim and I have been having a blast! For me, I made to best choice. Honestly prey looks like a play once and you're done type of game and I don't really mess with any game I can't enjoy long after the campaign.

[@bigdigdoraemon5063]

should I buy now or wait for the price to go down,because it is expensive in my country :(

[@nikkimackay6561]

Just stumbled across your channel about a month ago and I honestly am so glad I did. Great content, and damn persuasive when it comes to buying, waiting or never touching.

[@ACGreviews]

my thanks Nikki!

[@nomercy8989]

What was the thing in the first 40 minutes he was talking about? I finished the game 2x now and am not really sure if the is talking about the simulation or not.

[@JTBacchanalist]

I can picture your confusion as the music swells while you navigate a computer console in the game, great stuff. I may pick this up though I know nothing about the series, appreciate the great review as always man!

[@ottokomlos3221]

You just earned a sub man. Such a good quality and so much better than IGN and Gamespot.

[@ACGreviews]

my thanks otto

[@bachtran6604]
