Prey: The spiritual successor of "System Shock", "Bioshock" and "Deus Ex"!

Prey is an excellent game that holds clear inspiration from the three aforementioned game. Telling anything about the story is killing the thrill of finding out and a few good plot twists. Suffice to say that you are fighting Typhoon, a space entity, in which a certain subspecies can mimic anything it likes. While the game is very thrilling and difficult to put down, you cannot shake the feeling that you have seen and done that before. The fabrication system is similar to the Adam system in "Bioshock" and the RPG progression reminds you of the newer "Deus Ex" games (Invisible War, Mankind Divided".

The pros:
* Great story that you put together piece by piece from e-mails, audio logs etc. A few unexpected twists and turns along the way
* Very nice graphics
* Good jump scares, mainly at the start of the game
* A wide skills tree to modify the character to suit your style
* Very long, took me over 41 hours to finish the main story and all of its side quests

The cons:
* The final plot twist while surprising, it tries too hard to swoop you off your feet
* When you finally meet some survivors, you have no feelings that you did something special
* "Seen this, done that" feeling
