Prey is a solid shooter, if not an aging one, but it's nevertheless nice to see this port come to fruition. There is no reason that more games can't come to the Linux platform..
Ryan "icculus" Gordon was working to push out the full retail version of the game's binaries. After months of work, he has finally succeeded in bringing the full version of the game to the Linux platform.

In an attempt to keep the entire procedure legal, the full Linux version requires a working CD key and the original CDs or digitally-distributed installation file to get the game up and running. The full single player game is supported and Gordon says that network play is also supported cross-platform with the original PC version.

Great news. But why is this game still retailing for 900 bucks even 2 and a half years after it's release? I wanted to buy this just to support native linux ports but really can't afford it at the price of two GTA4's :-( especially since I know that Multiplayer servers will mostly be empty. I don't enjoy single player games anymore ( :-( )
