God of War” is a blockbuster action-adventure video game franchise with roots that began on the PlayStation 2 console in 2005. Featuring a Spartan General-cum-God of War protagonist named Kratos and based in ancient mythology, the popular warrior became a massive hit with players and subsequently headlined a multitude of successful games over the past 17 years.
Recently, on January 14th, a PC port was released for the latest 2018 installment titled “God of War” which was billed as a reimagining of the franchise. Despite only being on the market for 10 days, reports indicated the PC port has already sold over a million copies.
While those sales numbers probably came as no surprise to fans very familiar with the game’s popularity, “Prey” director Dan Trachtenberg turned to Twitter to remark on the game’s port to PC success, revealing the game had some influence on his upcoming Predator film, “Prey”!
So how does this game influence “Prey”? We’re not sure, but this specific reimagining of “God of War” 2018 game featured Kratos living as a man beyond the shadow of the gods, where he must adapt to unfamiliar lands and venture with his son Atreus on a quest. This quest is to honor his son’s mother and her dying wish to have her ashes spread upon the highest of mountain peaks. And on this quest, Kratos teaches his son how to hunt and the ways of a hunter.
So is “Prey” influenced by theses teaching aspects of “God of War”, where Amber Midthunder’s character is shown the ways of the hunter during a perilous journey by someone in her tribe just like Kratos? Or is perhaps the Predator doing the teaching, showing her the ways of the hunt? We have no idea yet, but the possibilities certainly sound intriguing!

I like that he addresses his viewpoint of how the fight holds up despite the antagonist vs protagonist seeming so one-sided. I'll have to see for myself but I'm looking forward to seeing Naru's ingenuity.
Another video from the same dude:
I'm trying to avoid spoilers and have accidentally read 2 different ones that contradict each other.
So there's still hope I'm not spoiled.
Highly recommend a subscribe to them. They've given me plenty of laughs since 2015.

AvPGalaxy makes a very brief cameo around the 15:30 mark!
decloaking tease.. sound effects are different.
Yeah, same here. I've watched Adams and Mikey's reactions and that's it for me, until August 5th.
Looking forward to it, and expecting to see the post count about 5 times higher than it is now by the time I look here again!
Hope everyone enjoys Prey, how we need a good Predator film to reminisce over and dissect for months and years to come.
Nice, another to add to my small collection

A big positive is that once you've done the first viewing you can rematch it again soon after.
When I'm hyped for a film I sometimes have a hard time taking it all in. Can watch this as many times as you like now.
Then a bigger sitting with some friends and beers.
I at least took the day off work so I can sit down with some snacks with the curtains closed and nothing else to distract me and make the most of what I have
Meaning, I've really been waiting for this for about 25 years.
Well, the hype is through the roof now.
Now I need to figure out how to see the movie in the best format the earliest.
I'm beginning to believe
I'm still not sold until i see it for myself but my confidence is now quietley growing.
If this is indeed "the one" it will be even more of a shame that we can't get to see on the big screen.
Good to see RR have a positive view on the movie, i watch alot of there videos and they seem to have a fairly good nose for decent/shit movies so this kind of takes my scepticism meter down from 9/10 to maybe a 7.
Also noticed a few more positive reactions popping up on Joblo, hope these aren't a repost:
