Prey Review - IGN

This creepy space station is fantastically explorable, and its shape-shifting enemies maintain tension when combat doesn't.

UCForce3295d ago

IGN America gave a 4. But IGN Canada gave an 8.

UCForce3295d ago (Edited 3295d ago )

Well, yeah. Canada is own country despite the language is English with different accent. Oh man, I'm sound like idiots.

2pacalypsenow3295d ago (Edited 3295d ago )

No one says "I'm going to America" when they go to Canada.

Also they changed the score to an 8 in the U.S IGN.

Psychotica3294d ago

People in Canada are called Canadians, not Americans..

CrimsonWing693294d ago

Is Mexico in America? 😂

NecoTehSergal3294d ago

I hate people like you, Brich, who think they're 'the same' just because they're connected to what's called North America....

As a Canadian - I'd prefer not being referred to as an American for numerous reasons.

brich2333294d ago

Canada is in America and that is a fact, so get over it, America is the whole continent there is no other America: https://qph.ec.quoracdn.net...

@2pacalyspenow. America is two continents (or 1 extermely large continent). Canadians are technically Americans, if the term was ever used correctly.

On topic: The original IGN review was some garbage.

2pacalypsenow3294d ago

You are correct, but the term "American" is used for United States, like I mentioned, no one says "I'm going to America" when hey go to Mexico, Canada, Chile, Brazil etc..

4 was for the PC version due to technical issues.

MadMax3294d ago

Most Canadians are idiotic liberals.

2pacalypsenow3294d ago

Unfortunately United States has a lot of those idiots too.

jznrpg3294d ago

Grouping a large population of people together with one statement is idiotic

Re reviewing games... Really? So you didn't stick to your guts with the 4 you gave it because of a bug in the end. Then proceeds to go to Twitter to cry about how you were being attacked for giving it a low score, only to shamelessly change the score later.... What was the point trying to defend your score againts those who questioned you on Twitter? What was the point of reviewing the game in the first place?

I never took this guy's review seriously. He couldn't beat the Cleric Beast in Bloodborne and wrote an article crying about how Bloodborne "Lost him." IGN just hit a new low with this. Nice standard you are trying to set. Once again Bethesda gets away with anything

DanteVFenris6663295d ago

Not a single issue after 5 hours of gameplay on ps4. This game is a master piece. The best game published by Bethesda in ever. Bethesdas not getting away with anything I'd say reviews are being harsher towards them than anyone else right now

Erik73573294d ago (Edited 3294d ago )

Probably because they have COD junkies reviewing this who dont know in depth games when they see them.

Also, they a little salty about that review embargo so it adds to it.

MadMax3294d ago (Edited 3294d ago )

Far from a masterpiece, looks last gen. Generic, bland and dull and one of the shallowest games ever developed by Bethesda. You need to play more games man, quality ones at that.

2pacalypsenow3294d ago

Man people are throwing around the word "Masterpiece" like dirty underwear, it seems every game is a masterpiece now smh..

DanteVFenris6663294d ago

@madmax last gen? Lol you need to play more games. Tloz: a link to the past is a master piece despite any generation. Generations don't mean shit besides better visuals.

It's quite the opposite of shallow. Theirs literally secrets crawling everywhere you look. You can get different guns in different orders if your smart. For example I got the shotgun before I picked up the laser gun. Heard of metrovania? Because this game nail the design to a fucking T.

The last game to be as good as this in the first person perspective where from the likes of metroid prime and half life.

Than prey open up even more when the psychic powers become available. The smart glass shit is dope too.

I have a feeling they keep Stapleton around so he can write clickbait.

snipershot3253294d ago (Edited 3294d ago )

What a dumbas$ "this game is an 8 now, but it was a 4 because I ran into a rare game breaking bug 40 hours in that no other reviewer ran into that got patched 2 days after the game came out, also I am huge f*ckin noob that cant beat the first boss on Bloodborne"

mochachino3295d ago

No way this game deserved a 4/10, I have it on PC and it certainly isn't plagued with performance issues or bugs at all. It's actually one of the best running PC games I've played in a while.

It's very hard to take IGN seriously when they gave Dishonored 2 a 93 and that game is essentially unplayable on PC due to, you guessed it, performance issues. Namely, constant frame stuttering and skipping despite having 100 plus FPS on my hardware.

No matter what framerate or settings you have, Dishonored 2 looks worse than 30 FPS due to the severe framepacing issues yet they gave that 9.3/10. It's actually the worst running PC game I've seen in years and there's nothing that can be done to fix the frame problems.

IGN has zero consistency regarding their reviews and the reasons given for high or low scores has little basis in reality. They shouldn't even be on metacritic given how random and arbitrary their review points are.

TheOttomatic913295d ago

Lol IGN Canada desperately trying to repair the damage done by their American counterparts.

LAWSON723295d ago (Edited 3295d ago )

It cracks me up someone got super salty from a bug and posted a review score out of spite, and then a day later they fix it. Seriously how unprofessional can you be, where is the quality control.

It is a zero from me until they fix input lag on PS4, luckily I don't have to review it lol

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

dveio21d ago

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing21d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Tanktopmaster9221d ago

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit21d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing21d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9221d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
