Yeah, but you felt like a demigod pulling all that crazy sh*t off against insane opposition. I never really died too often.

Me neither. A few upgrades later you became pretty much unstoppable.

[Zeehunter]

There is a achievement for not dying even once in a playthru .
I got it .
Once u get all the upgrades u r practically immortal unless u keep on fighting like a dumb .

Prototype had stealth elements , action and most important open world with lots of side missions

[Joy]

You guys are making me feel glad that I skipped the first one

lol same , I never played this , chose Infamous over this , and I'm glad I did.

I liked both games although inFamous was obviously the better title. It had a much better story and characters were likeable. And it was far more polished compared to Prototype. Prototype was all about dumb fun... kinda like a hyperviolent gory Crackdown.

[MarketTantrik]

^^ Hyperviolent, gory Crackdown. Sounds apt.

[devil_angel]

Did anyone say crackdown?

[Ne0]

Yea, the difficulty spikes were crazy. And useless checkpointing made it worse.

I stopped playing the game at the first hunters fight in that enclosed area. The gfx looked crap on PC version and some audio problems as well

[nash]

Not sure what exactly you folks hated about it. To me it was a decent superhero sandbox romp with some ridiculous powers and attacks. I actually liked it a lot... I even ended up maxing all my abilities. There was a lot of variety in the combat. However, the game had a shaky start, a really unlikeable protagonist and a throwaway story. Plus there was a nasty difficulty spike in the first few hours that made most people give up on it. Or maybe it was the excessive gore...

I'm with you on this. Prototype was plain awesome. I spent countless hours hijacking tanks and then killing a bazillion civilians in them.

[Tyler]

The body count in Prototype was insane!

[Rock Lee]

I just gave up on the first game. The mission where we hijack the coptor as a cover up was way too difficult and maxing out abilities in that level didn't mean jack. There was too much chaos and my coptor always used to get destroyed no matter how many times I tried. I hope they remove such sh1tty missions.

[nash]

Man the amount of civilians I cut in two with the whip upgrade was just mental.

I would actually recommend you bump down the difficulty and give the game another shot. It's one of the best stress busters out there.

I don't remember the exact mission but can't you just hijack another helicopter if the first one blows up? I think that's what I did. It's been a long time since I've played the game.

Also I don't recall any missions where I got stuck for a long time except for the first Hunter ambush and the final boss (which was still a lot easier than I had expected).

I did, but no luck. It reminded me of those GTA Vice City coptor bomb missions.
But yeah, for stress busting, the game is great. The way we can slice through people and utterly destroy them without any penalities (*looks sternly at Infamous and Assassins Creed*) was lot of fun.

I don't remember the exact mission but can't you just hijack another helicopter if the first one blows up?

Oh f**k no. We need that helicoptor for that entire mission. If it blows, or if you jump out of it, BAM MISSION FAILED.
And then they say that its an open world game.

all i remember doing in the game is running up buildings and elbow dropping tanks

[Elessar]

I actually had more fun with this game than Infamous.. The amount of mayhem you could cause with your upgraded powers was unbelievable. Taking on tanks on foot was such a blast.. Then bringing down the military or infected buildings with the ridiculous superpowered moves.. Even just jumping around the city was fun.

Also the side missions were varied and interesting.. The one where you have to keep a lookout for certain civilians with info you can absorb throughout the game was pretty innovative.

OH YEAH! I forgot about all those bitching moves.

[Zeehunter]

Ambar u suck

[Tyler]

Elbow dropping tanks FTW!!


Damn I feel like booting this up just for kicks!

[nash]

Me too. And I still have to finish DA II... or not?

[Rock Lee]

New trailer released which has gameplay at the end:

Graphics are improved a lot if that is console footage.

[devilryu111]

so alex mercer will be villain in this game

[Tyler]

He was pretty much a villain even in the first.

[nash]

Oh man, gameplay looked sweet. Can't wait to run 1222,2222,222222222222222 pedestrians in tanks once again.

He was just taking revenge from those bad guys IIRC

LoL .. Same thing happened with me .
I played this game first at a gaming cafe on a PC
Got damn bored coz I kept on dying .
Then my friend opened his save file he had fully upgraded Mercer .
Damn that was awesome .
Game picks up later and it is fun to play with those different skills .
Boss fights, stealth missions, mass destruction this game excels in every field

[Zeehunter]

That kinda sucks. One of the great things about the original Prototype was that it gave me tons of options at any given time. And they all could be mixed and matched freely. I could glide from building to building, pick off snipers and then jump down from a tall building to unleash a deadly AOE attack impaling dozens of infected at a time.

Yeah .. It will be the lamest thing to make perks limited like COD . If they do something like this then
