What a night!!! Prey demo is here

Hello fellow Tommy's,
What a ride it has been. I was waiting for the demo when all of a sudden DeathofU calls me on skype and says"countdown to Prey?" and I said "30 minutes and btw thanks for hooking up with me". DeathofU replied " I know what this game means to ya and I wouldn't miss it for the world and it reminds me of a console launch" and I replied "yep". We had a little time to knock out so I said let's get some Doom 3 in while we wait and so we started playing and what was really funny about this is that WE knew when the demo was available just by the bandwidth we lost:) It was like everyone in the world was trying to get their hands on this baby and so where we! I got the demo downloaded and looked at the servers available and they were only 6 when I created a server and got ready for DeathofU. My initial impression was holy fuck is it beautiful bro and the weapons look so cool. DeathofU got in the game and we started going at it. He got the first frag and was doing a great job on the first map. Then the Kodak moment occurred when he was upside down and we where shooting at each other (or was I upside down??) and I got the frag off him! We had a blast playing the 2 maps and he had to get some sleep since he is a daywalker. Thanks DeathofU for sharing the birth of new deathmatching as we know it with me!! Now on with the review of the single player demo.....
You know when you put such high expectations on things how normally you are always disappointed with it? Well I am happy to report that this game actually went beyond my expectations! I think it is safe to say that everyone has seen the movie when Jen and Grandpa are getting abducted and being transported to the ship but it is another thing to see it unfold in front of your eyes! The graphics look amazing and I have EVERYTHING decked out:) I am not here to spoil this demo for anyone and so I will leave a lot out of this review. I felt that the demo size was just right and I really liked how they ended it. I am sad that I just can't portal to July 10 so I can make them bastards pay:) I really would like to congratulate Chris and the team at Human Head studios for making such a great game to play!
Pros
1. Graphics are awesome (Doom 3 engine NEVER has looked better)
2. Music is great (nothing like hearing Judas Priest ripping it while killing hunters)
3. MultPrey IS the beginning of a new deathmatch ( twitch fragging will rule)
4. Weapons are organic and awesome ( it is awesome just standing still and watching them move)
5. The first time picking up the creature that is a grenade was funnier than hell
6. Tommy swears just like me:)
7. Spirit walking is just plain awesome
Cons
1. The A.I. reminds me of Quake 4 (strafe and kill, kill, kill)
2. DeathofU replied while deathmatching that he can see a lot of people not being able to take the deathmatching and getting nauseous playing it!
