Review

 




You are Alex Mercer, a shapeshifter with absolute mastery over your genetic structure, stalking the streets of New York City, searching for your past.

A secret war is brewing in New York. First, battle below the media radar, then, watch as the virus spirals out of control and the government seizes the media to stop the spread of information.

Face an ever-growing army of infected creatures warped and changed by the virus. As it spreads, more and more of New York falls under its control. The virus overwrites a creature's existing genetics; warping and changing their form into something else, something planned. As the virus gathers its army, rush to discover the secret behind it all; the one thing that can stop it all before the city falls into ruin...

This game is truruly a classic, one of the best I have ever played! InFamous has nothing on this!
If you're all about graphics then don't get it, but you will be missing out on some of the best gameplay of all time!
The powers you possess are amazing, the story is really good too. It's brilliant to just jump, glide and run around new york city...not to mention fly in helicopters and drive tanks too!
Like an amazing version of Spiderman 2...which was an amazing game!

Having played lots of games this is the first "open" world / "roaming" game I've played/bought. Took a chance and have to say I really have enjoyed playing it so far.
Right, as far as graphics go - yeah its not the best but its certainly not that bad as some of the other reviews would suggest. The actual game play is fantastic/fun and the choice of weapons Alex has is great and varied.
You can play through the game using the mission mode or go off and do seperate mini missions - the choice is yours.

If you already have played GTA type games to death and are looking for something different - then you might not get it with Prototype - However - if you like me you are tempted with this type of genre - then give it a go and enjoy!!!!!!
