Game Revolution writes: Radical Entertainment, developers of The Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction and Scarface: The World Is Yours, began its session at the 2008 Game Developers Conference on the open-world design for their new IP, Prototype, by asserting that it was unique. Like The Prestige, they declared. Not like anything else.
Prototype is like Grand Theft Auto 3 smashed into Assassin's Creed in a modern setting - more precisely, New York City. In just the first shot, Alex Mercer - a white-hooded man whose eyes are covered Altaïr-style and who sports a grey padded vast and blue jeans - leaps off a skyscraper into the hustle and bustle of Times Square. He's a badass armed with shape-shifting abilities but without any memories of his past, which only makes him hungrier to find the heart of the conspiracy that created him.
From Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 and Batman: Arkham City to breakout hit Dispatch and new Marvel Cosmic Invasion, these are 10 of the best superhero games you can play today.
Not all video game protagonists are sweet, jolly, or wholesome. Folks like Agent 47 are cold, ruthless, and reserved and it shows.
I'd like to believe Joel's situation is more about turning into a calloused survivor in a cold-hard world who may have made selfish decisions. Not inherently ruthless.
Ah, fond memories of strangling all the people in their hotel rooms in Hitman 1
Lara Croft, Nathan Drake etc, cos they pretend to be the good guys but are mass murderers that show no remorse.
While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.
Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.
It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny
Armored Core VI?
Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.
Is something big coming soon to branch the story?
No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).
Trevor in GTA 6 is a sadist and psychopath who dabbles in cannibalism. Should be top of the list. These game “news” sites should hire people that know games.
