- Awesome Music: Just before you get abducted, the jukebox in the bar starts playing "Don't Fear The Reaper". Not to mention that when you get to fighting a horde of aliens in the bar at the end of the game, "You Got Another Thing Comin'" starts blaring on the jukebox. "Take Me Home" by After Midnight Project plays over the closing credits, ending the game on a fitting note.
- Fridge Brilliance: The keypads on the alien ship only have eight number buttons instead of ten. Why? The aliens have four fingers in each hand, which would logically factor into them developing a base-8 numeric system.
- Hilarious in Hindsight: The 2022 Predator prequel is also titled Prey (2022), and coincidentally features Native American protagonists going up against hostile aliens.
- It's Short, So It Sucks!: A common criticism of the game. The average player will finish it in about five or eight hours. Although at the very least it's all killer no filler.
- Nightmare Fuel: The game does not pull it's punches and is somehow more darker and harrowing than Doom³. Forcing both Tommy and the Player to see some very heavy stuff, so much so that it has it's own page.
- Scrappy Mechanic: Spirit Walking, wherein upon death you had to kill weak mooks in order to get back in the action. Chastised in this game because it effectively meant you were never punished for dying, although it has shown up in other games (such as Borderlands) with alterations or improvements.
- Spiritual Successor: Can be considered one to the Turok series, with a Native American protagonist, and portals and inter-dimensional travel being part of the plot. All that's missing are dinosaurs.
