Update (Monday, Aug 7): Finished Prey and finally bumped my lame-ass Gamerscore past 1000. Definitely my all-around favorite 360 game so far, thanks in large part to the save-anywhere feature and the fact that you can’t really die. I’ve sent it off to my friend Ricky Wright to play, and I’m back with some Oblivion now and then, and into the second or third level of Lara Croft Tomb Raider: Legends.
Update (Friday, June 30): From an insider pal, the below. And obviously it was sooner, because you can get it right now on Xbox Live, just in time for weekend play.
“I hear it’s coming this weekend or even sooner, fyi”

Right on, Jay, thanks for taking the time to the reply. I know you want it out there as badly as we want to download it and dive in. We’re eagerly a-waitin’.

Update: From an Xbox 360 team contact:
Hey Joe,
There is no definite time right now. 2K may be able to give you more information.

Tried to stay awake last night for the midnight (EST) arrival of the Prey demo, but sleep won over. While the PC demo is available, not so for Xbox 360. I’ve put in a text message to an inside contact and am waiting to hear back from him on when the Prey for Xbox 360 demo will be downloadable from Xbox Live. Stay tuned.
Update man,update.
