Prototype

Post by invertin » Wed Oct 10, 2007 4:02 pm

Prototype is a new game coming out soon. I can't give you the exacts (I forgot to copy and paste :P) but basically, it's GTA, with more apocalypse, less bling, and much much more mutant freak.

You're Alan Mercer, you wake up on a lab table somewhere in NY, without any memory of your past. Outside, the military is fighting these strange monsters that have appeared lately, and pretty soon you find out that you are one of the monsters..

You can steal weapons from the dead of course, but you don't have to. you can shapeshift and morph into any form you need. You can turn your hands into blades and slice through foes, you can turn your arm into a defensive exo-shield, you can melt through bars and walls. But most importantly, you can steal DNA of your foes and take their forms, you'll get their powers, their knowledge, aswell as their rank. Steal a commanders DNA and the soldiers will listen to you, and the soldiers will allow you into areas you normally wouldn't be allowed in.

If that isn't enough info for you, watch what they're hoping the game to be like.

Sounds awesome! It also sounds like something that just happens to be incompatible with my OS. Am I right, or am I wrong?

Yeah Borderlines looks really sick, it's like a diablo style sci-fi first person shooter. It looks really cool in Game Informer's preview.

Prototype looks pretty cool, but Radical Entertainment's track record of Scarface the world is yours and The Hulk doesn't really give me the impression that this will be as good as it looks. :(

Then I sincerely doubt it will handle the graphics of a game coming out 2-4 years later.
