That's right!  They MEANT to take 3 years to make it.  The only reason
it's not delayed is that they've NEVER given a date.  But you have to
admit that it's development time (especially considering they have yet
to show any real screenshots of gameplay and characters) is fairly
ridiculous.

I just can't wait for Prey!
