Over at ING they have just broken cover on the fact that the first person shooter Prey is coming to an iPhone near you. Prey which is developed by Machine Works is already popular a PC and Xbox tile and we imagine is soon to be a popular iPhone title. The plot is simple with you (Tommy) awakening to find himself on an unfamiliar planet with your girlfriend Jenny being held captive by aliens. This situation only leads to one course of action, smash and blow away as many aliens as you can on your way to rescue your beloved.

Prey for the iPhone

ING reports that Machine woks have created and innovative set of controls for prey, Using a series of four bars, you control Tommy’s movement and looking with your thumbs. The controls are responsive and after a couple moments of play, I grew pretty accustomed to the bars. However, if the bars are not placed to your liking, you can actually move them anywhere on screen you like.

Prey Controls

There are all the usual puzzle work and dizzying array of weapons, but as Prey players would be happy to note ING reports, the wall-walking, where you tramp up gravity-defying paths that spiral around rooms is still in iPhone Version.

Prey will be available in a few weeks, once we know for sure when it is coming out we will let you know.
