I haven't yet decided. I know the game would be more powerful for the PC, and would probably look a little nicer, not to mention the fact it's first-person, so a keyboard and mouse would be better for gameplay. But then there's the Xbox 360 version, it's hooked up to my theater, my surround sound system, and there's achievements. I haven't decided yet.
Which one are you going for?
PC, 'cos I don't have a XBox 360.
But since you have all of those hooked up, might as well get the XBox 360 version.
PC, because FPS's suck on consoles.

I don't have an X360 so Im going for PC, but I probably would have anyway because its so much easier to play FPS with keyboard+mouse, especially in multiplay (multiprey :P)

PC, because:
1) I don't have a 360
2) FPSs and joypads don't mix
3) With my Z800 visor, I can play the PC version in VIRTUAL REALITY!!!

Depends. I myself say the 360 because a controller feels way more comfortable to me than a mouse and keybaord, but if you have a PC that can run the game as smoothly as the 360 and look as good then I'd have to say go with the PC version since it's cheaper.
sharepc all the way, if you didnt waste your money on a crappy 360 you could have upgraded your comp to run this game. keyboard and mouse will always be the best way to play an fps
shareDevilmaster, I'm Intreagued lol. This virtual reality device you speak of...how much does it cost? whats it like? how do you get hold of one?
shareThey're several hundred bucks... Maybe when I get a better job I'll invest in one.
I personally hate FPS' on consoles. They just can't perform as good as a PC.

PC, with creative X-Fi and 7.1 surrond sound speakers, sounds even better than consoles.

PC or 360 the game is good imo. My PC could barely run the demo, so I just bought it for 360 and it looks great on there. Some loading at times, but it's worth the wait. If your an IGN Insider they have a Prey Xbox 360 VS PC. You can check it out at this link. http://insider.ign.com/articles/719/719527p1.html

I don't get it. What's so difficult about using a joypad that scares pc users so much?
Sometimes you're the bug, and sometimes you're the windshield...
I don't know either. I've grown up playing games mainly on the computer. I also had a Nintendo and a Genesis, but I didn't get an xbox until a few years after they came out.
The point is that I have much more experience playing games with the keyboard + mouse setup. But after playing FPSs on the xbox I've completely fallen in love with them. I don't really like FPS on the computer as much anymore. The (usual) setup is so easy, espcially for comp users: the left analog is the WASD keys (or arrow keys for the amateurs) and the right analog is the mouse. All the other buttons are conviently located.
I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound they make as the fly by.

I've played a lot of FPS games on the xbox, and I really have no idea what you're talking about. The analog stick is just like the mouse, you move it and your character moves, you stop moving it and your character stops. I don't know what you mean about having to move the stick the opposite direction to stop; whatever game you played like that was definately an exception to the norm.

Ok, feel free to correct me again, but I think what you meant is: you have to move the stick the opposite direction to return to the position you just left.
Because "having to move the stick the opposite direction to stop" and that description you just gave above do not equal the same thing. I do, however, now understand what you are talking about.
I see how that is different from the mouse. I like it better that way though. On the PC most games only have two options: you can walk or you can run. Sometimes you can crouch and crawl. With the X-box (and I assume other consoles) you often have more of a range from creeping to walking to jogging to running (or whatever) depending on how far from the centre you move the stick. I guess I never thought about what you're saying because it just made sense to me. (sorry, that sounds like I'm being a jerk, but I don't mean it made sense because it's obvious, it just made sense TO ME for whatever reason).
I can understand you not like consoles though. I think the xbox is the best controller I've ever used (not including the orginal design which was made for grizzly bears), but I would find it really hard to use a psx controller.

I like the fact that if i read about a game thats coming out in say 6 months time, my 360 will run it no problem and joypads are a better way to play fps's, just turn the sensitivity up. not to say that pc's dont have good games (solitaire is ace), I just prefer consoles. simple as.
shareConsole's are computers now, even lian-li makes new towers for xbox 360's.
My video card alone is worth more than a 360.
Bought an xbox controller for pc so I have crazy pc speeds with the only thing that makes the xbox fun woot.

I'd probably say 360 because of Achivements. But I'm not a big fan of pc gaming.
