Prey hasn't been released. According to what I've read at 3D Realms, they're
not going to make any decisions about Prey until after DNF is released.
Check out some of the Prey links at the 3D Realms bulletin board, especially
the 1998 Infinite Megahertz interview. It features project leader Paul
Schuytema where he shows off some amazing features of the Prey engine. On of
the coolest features was dynamic portals, where you could create holes in
space that would let you travel from one part of the map to another. Unreal
has static portals, but these could be created and destroyed on-the-fly.

Lots of Prey stuff here. Enjoy! :)
