Fair review. I personally would give the game no less than a 9 as it's amazingly fun and gory with a story that is presented in a stylish way that must be followed closely to be understood.
Biased much?
I was on the fence too about the game seeing as I was already playing inFAMOUS but I was having so much fun with that I figured, screw it, I will buy Prototype as well. Needless to say, inFAMOUS hasn't been getting played as much as Prototype. Both games are freakin sweet, Prototype is more mature and much more bloodier.
The average consumer is too dumb to understand this concept. I for one am ECSTATIC about the announcement of L4D2!
Who plays games solely for story?? There is only one game worthy of that title and that's Bioshock, period. Maybe Mass Effect, I never played it but I heard the story was great.
I own both, and a bunch of other great games that I enjoy playing too.
Alex Mercer would consume Cole and then he would have his powers as well, game over.
WAA WAAA WAAAA. Some people expect way too much out of games today. BLAH BLAH BLAH. Try having fun playing the game and not worrying about the developer. I guarantee if Devs were never revealed, there would be an entirely different outlook on certain games.
I for one am glad that I get a great shooter running on a superior engine. COD is the king and I can't wait fot Modern Warfare 2 and I really hope we get a COD that takes place in Vietnam in 2010 from Treyarch.
Both games are great to enjoy for the summer. Buy both if possible :)
Bioshock is the greatest video game story of all time, end of discussion.
This game deserves any gamer's attention who enjoys open world games. Buy inFAMOUS and Prototype if you can afford them both, two great action games for the summer.
I have played both extensively. inFAMOUS has more of a comic book feel and gives you the option to approach the game however you please, good or evil. Prototype forces you to play the anti hero and unravel your past to figure out what happened. inFAMOUS has better graphics, but Prototype still looks much better than most will have you believe. Prototype overall has a lot more action on screen while maintaining a higher framerate than inFAMOUS and that's a fact. Prototype does have some mi...
I absolutely love the gameplay in Prototype. After playing inFAMOUS, I thought for sure Prototype would flop, I was extrememly pleasantly surprised. Open world action games FTW!
I have a spare code if anyone is interested
Prototype is so much more fun than inFAMOUS. I'm not saying inFAMOUS wasn't a blast to play through, but I enjoy Prototype much much more because of the insane amount of violence, the amount of pedestrians on screen running in terror for their lives, and the amount of insane upgrades that don't require power regeneration to use repeatedly. Both games are worthy of a purchase in my opinion.
I agree with thatruth2006, I have completed inFAMOUS which was great, but Prototype is way faster, bloodier, and has better upgrades. You can't grab someone by the throat in inFAMOUS and run up the side of a building with them and throw them off the roof, you can't because it's a TEEN game. Both are great and I recommend anyone that is interested in open world action games to buy both if possible.
I just want to say also that I was totally on the fence with this game as I already played through inFAMOUS completey(only once as evil cole) and I didn't want to buy a game that wasn't as good. Prototype blew my mind and I'm so glad I took the gamble on the game. If you're like me, just buy the game because it's worth it, you won't be disappointed.
I love the game and I recommend it to any fan of open world action games. If you love inFAMOUS, you will love Prototype. Prototype is receiving some biased reviews in my opinion. After playing it, I'm so glad I bought it. Some reviews ripped it which is so unfair. Free Radical did an amazing job with the game. I give them an "A" for the job they did in realizing their vision for the game. Great game, don't listen to the bad reviews. Prototype looks just as good as inFAMOUS with no f...
I just bought No Country For Old Men on Blu Ray yesterday :)
