It’s a bit of an apples and oranges situation but considering the history I’m curious which one people prefer in a situation where you could only have one. I believe 2006 is still considered abandonware with it previously being listed on Steam but being removed when they ran out of keys.
I liked 2017’s gameplay but I felt like 2006 was more memorable and unique so I think I’d choose it.

1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy “anti-woke” energy, you probably shouldn’t be posting it here.
3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.
Damn, how is the Prey 2017 version one of my all time favorites but I didn’t know there was a 2006 Prey game.
It probably doesn’t help that it’s abandonware and was limited largely to the PC and Xbox 360.
A lot of people only hear about it in “top abandonware games” lists that would mention it and games like Alpha Protocol which was recently relisted.
They are completely unrelated. They just had a really cool name they didn’t want to lose.
