Prey 2 to Show Portal Up; No PS3 Prey 2

[CSN NewsBot]

In an interview with Radar Group's Scott Miller (also of 3D Realms fame), IGN was able to find out a thing or two about Prey 2's use of portals.

IGN: Prey is obviously the most well-known franchise of the bunch. Since the original's release, we've also played a little game called Portal. Has said title's use of portals influenced how the technology is being used in Prey 2?



Miller: Absolutely! While Prey pioneered the portal concept, Valve's Portal took it to an all-new level. It really shows what you can do when you focus on a single core cool gameplay concept. So, while Portal impressed the heck out of us, it has also inspired us to return the favor to Valve and hopefully leap frog them as they did us. We believe we have new ideas for portals that will keep the portal race interesting.

Those are some rather bold claims there! What do you think? Do you believe Prey 2 will be able to really revolutionize the whole portal ability? There is only so much you can do with it, no?



IGN also had a larger image of the previously released postage stamp sized Prey 2 concept art. You can see that right here.



Additionally, it was revealed that Prey 2 is not coming to the PS3. It will only be developed and released for the 360 and PC.

Well, one of the things I loved in Prey that can be mixed (I think to good effect) with the portals is the use of changing gravity. This hasn't been implemented in Portal's current form but it can make for some interesting level design.
