PS3Vault: 'Prototype is better than inFAMOUS. Or perhaps I should say (now that I've got your attention) that I enjoyed it a lot more than I did inFAMOUS. Whilst inFAMOUS was a great game (see our review here), it was devoid of any moments that really made me say 'woooaahh' like the best games all do. For example, Metal Gear Solid 4's first level throwing the Gekko at you, or Resistance 2's Leviathon boss battle – it's these kind of things that you remember after you've finished the game and it's these things that you recount to your friends. inFAMOUS was empty of these and, whilst it was a great game, few things really stood out in a way that would have you talking about them afterwards other than, maybe, the ending.
Prototype, however, is filled to the brim with these. They don't only come as parts of set pieces, either; just running around and fighting things in the huge open world can lead to situations that will make you go 'wooaah'. Just the combat is brilliantly fun and intense. But let's move on to the review, shall we?'
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.
...and objectivity the moment he mentioned inFamous in a Prototype review. Bad form indeed...
There, straight from a PS3 fansite. The truth.
