Thanks to Tarik for sending in this video of proto-Prey. He seems astonished that Prey has been around for almost 10 years... the rest of us already knew it. But what's fascinating about the live demonstration of Prey by 3D Realms' Paul Schuytema is just how damn good it looks. There's no Dyson sphere, the weapons are completely different, but the game just looks stunning on a P266 with a Voodoo 2 card. Moreover, it demonstrates the exact same dynamic portal-dropping technology that Narbacular Drop and soon Portal have been showcasing.
What's somewhat depressing about this video is it really just shows that what could have been a revolutionary 1998 or 1999 title missed its time and eventually became a fun but ultimately disposable 2006 shooter. And we just wouldn't be very surprised if that's a sentence we can't reuse when Duke Nukem Forever rolls out.
