MCV Preview: Prototype

Activision Blizzard's parkour-powered, reluctant superhero Alex Mercer makes his debut in the upcoming smash hit Prototype…

Superheroes have to put a lot of effort into hiding their identity. Spider-Man, Batman and the X-Men have to wear figure-hugging costumes and masks, Superman has to make sure he doesn't forget his glasses and Bruce Banner has to make sure he controls his temper. For Alex Mercer, star of Activision Blizzard's Prototype, the answer is much simpler: he changes shape.

Ranking The Coldest, Most Ruthless Protagonists In Gaming

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

6 Fun Games Where You Actually Play As The Bad Guy

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.
