At first glance looking like a domain squatter page, a visit to Prey.com will actually show you a very brief Flash animation with the tag line "Earth's Savior Doesn't Want The Job". A quick WHOIS reveals the domain is owned by Take 2 Games, and a view source on the page shows a line of binary code. Translated, it says "Hiding things in the source code is so 20th century.

Update: Prey forums are now available at the 3D Realms website. In one of the posts there George Broussard confirms Human Head Studios (Rune, Dead Man's Hand) is developing the game.
