Spencer and Cameron are going with a double feature review of 2 alien abduction horror video games. First, we are starting off with Body Harvest from the earlier days of Rockstar North. An exclusive on the N64 and filled with insect invasions that are harvesting the earth throughout time, big wide-open worlds, and jumping into any vehicle you see on screen. A lot of proto GTA 3 is here along with a dark looming story of you having to save the last of humanity before we are all consumed. Really nothing else out there like it. Especially on the Nintendo 64. But it also is a bit of a hard challenge of a game, even today. So, you may need to take a historical look at it. But for those of us who experienced it in the 90s, it really was something special.

Next, we played Prey from 2006 because that seemed like a perfect companion to Body Harvest. Prey is all about a Native American guy, named Tommy who gets abducted with his girlfriend and grandfather from their reservation bar and then has to fight his way out of the alien mess. Using very unique cyborg like alien weapons and then his Cherokee spirit powers, there is so much unique gameplay going on here. Using the Doom 3 engine and coming from the minds of 3D Realms, it's a super combination of power that has just been lost in time over the years. Though you can still pick this one up on Xbox Series X. Not to be confused with Prey 2017 which is a completely different game. Prey 06 even has cool Art Bell Coast to Coast segments worked in to give a real, genuine alien experience to the whole journey.

Pretty much 2 games that were close enough to being launch titles for the N64 and Xbox 360, even if Body Harvest took an extra year to make it past development. They are both unique experiences to behold.

So, come join us for the run through retrospective discussion, as we deep dive into the lore, gameplay mechanics, and give a retro review on our modern experience. Let us know your thoughts on the game, survival horror titles, and what we should play next.
