Alex wakes up on an autopsy table with two scientist types about to cut him open. He has no memories of who he is or how he got there. He promptly escapes and while doing so, discovers he has a wealth of powers at his disposal. Alex then uses his newfound powers to re-discover his past as he attempts to find out what happened to him. Alex is lead to a company called Genrek, which he used to be scientist for. Genrek are a medicine company who have created a virus that's spreading through the population, mutating any human DNA it comes into contact with. Alex must choose to help the human race or leave them to the ravages of the virus. The game goes by the name Prototype."
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.
Oh well doesn't look like I am getting this now. I guess my pre-order of Infamous will do the job alone now for the summer.
This has already been posted 17 hours ago. And to Nelson above me please tell me that youre being sarcastic, the previewer didnt even have a hands-on with the game and he has numerous errors about the game including the repeated mispelling of Gentek as Genrek, which he assumes is a 'medecine company', and "Alex must choose to save the human race, or leave them up to the ravages of the virus?' huh? its a revenge story with the backdrop of a viral outbreak and consipiracy, no saving the world here. And thats only the first paragraph??
Id expect hiphopgamer to be more reliable than that site. Id hate what to see their 'preview' of inFamous. Itll probably begin by saying, 'Cody recieved his power of thunder from the Norse God Odin'
Your a joke - Did you just search this preview until youd commented on all of them....Twat
