Digital Spy Preview: Prototype

Digital Spy writes: "It seems that New York is the most hazardous place in the world. While soaps have their fair share of geographical misfortune (how many attempted murders can happen in a single street?), no other place has had as much carnage and destruction in popular media. With its streets crammed full of cars and people, towering buildings and its instant recognition around the world makes it the perfect stage for an epic disaster."

This seems like the first big game in a while to not have any reviews posted before it's released.. coupled with them stating that no "pre release" demo would be put out, it makes me wonder if they know the game is bad and they don't want to lose all those hype-based presale orders.

I really hope it's a good game, it has so much potential.

jeseth5467d ago

Don't your time with Prototype.

If it was a great game they'd be sending copies everywhere for reviews and exposure. No reviews, no demo. . . .

inFamous was a blast. I'm playing it through now as a bad guy. Being evil is WAY more fun than saving all those pukes in Empire City.

inFamous FTW !!!

Why are u urging people to not bother with Prototype?? And how the hell do u know who got copies for review or not?? Maybe the reason the reviews are delayed has to do with oh i dont know..E3 PERHAPS! Look it already got two 9/10 reviews and everyone has been overly positive towards it. I believe itll be the sht, but lets wait till 2morrow shall we? I actually heard a kid in the forum say that IGN gave it an 8.8 and then took the review off suddenly. He could be full of sht, but an 8.8 sounds just about right for this game.

jeseth5466d ago

usually when games don't allow early reviews or demos they result in average ratings at best. Plus I had already played infamous and would recommend it to anyone who enjoys the genre.

Sorry if you took it so serious!

raztad5467d ago

I'm worried about this game. It's gonna be released in two days and no a single review thus far. Before inFAMOUS's release it was getting media exposure but now after E3, it slipped seriously under the radar. Very bad timing to do a release with people talking about E3 games.

deadreckoning6665467d ago (Edited 5467d ago )

I have alotta faith in this game. PSW UK, a Playstation mag, gave it a 9 outta 10. But heres the kicker, they blantantly said that they would go with Prototype over INFAMOUS.

Keep in mind that this is a PLAYSTATION MAG

khrisnifer5467d ago

It made the whole crowd go 'woahh' every few minutes when the Radical guy did like an elbow drop or a devastator.

Assasins Creed, GTA 4 didn't have demo's either - do you know how much work it is to make a demo when the deadline is coming?
trust me it's insanely cool fun if you like action games.

rbluetank5467d ago

Toys R Us is giving away a free $20 gift card with every purchase of Prototype. The offer is good in-store only and will expire on June 13th. i have never heard of a new release game from $59.99 cut to $39.99 on same day released. this game is suppose to be epic. i will definitely wait to see on this game... you can check toys r us website for conformation of what i just stated....

6 Fun Games Where You Actually Play As The Bad Guy

While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.

Profchaos32d ago

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

Tacoboto32d ago

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?

banger8832d ago

No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).

ChasterMies31d ago

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.

Six Activision Games I’d Like to See Revived Under Microsoft

As the world reels from the shockwaves of the seismic news that Microsoft is acquiring the proverbial swamp of the video-game landscape, Activision Blizzard King, it only seems natural that our minds should now shift towards what the fallout will be for presumably years if not decades to come.

Another Prototype would be awesome.

As for Singularity, I don't necessarily need a sequel, I just want to see Raven be able to flex their creative muscle again; not just be relegated to assisting with CoD. A lot of the old guard is still with the company.

That's part of what I'm hoping to see come from this acquisition. Revive teams like Vicarious Visions and Ravem to actually allow them to work on their own new projects again.

Crows90855d ago

As great as that would be the deal wont finalize until end of fiscal year 2023. Until after that date MS wont really have a say as to where resources will be spent. So we wont realistically see anything until perhaps 2026 or later.

LWOGaming854d ago

I think that’s a point that so many people are missing. Things will not change this year or next year at all. Maybe some changes might be apparent in 2024 but 2025/2026 is a good estimate of when things will really start happening. And I don’t think we will see as big a set of changes as some are suggesting.

TallDarknWavy855d ago

Those teams having not worked on anything, the employees find jobs at other companies, they don't just remain unemployed till someone at the publisher decides to revive the team, they need to eat lol

That said, this list of games makes me unexcited for anything outside of CoD that Activision has to offer. All games are in stale genres, like Guitar Hero, Simpsons Hit and Run, these are long surpassed genres that are going to be difficult to revive.

gamer7804855d ago

I want to see new IPs. Not a bunch of forced renovations of old franchises.

Gamer75855d ago

Why not a combination of both

gamer7804855d ago

@gamer75 if it is a combination it has to have my seal of approval. Such as a new Warcraft game or a new Warcraft mmo, or an action game based off the night elves orcs and humans if it’s a new IP. I’ll let you know after I talk with Microsoft

King_Noctis855d ago

Man I’ve been waiting for Protoype since the last one. Protoype could seriously be MS’ answer to Infamous (freaking loved that game as well, hope Sony make a new one soon).

porkChop855d ago

I'd love to see Raven take another crack at Heretic and Hexen.

MadLad854d ago

That's one I see being tossed around a lot to bring back, even if not from Raven themselves.

Put so many hours into those games over the years.

I'd like to see Activision get the Transformers license again and continue the War and Fall of Cybertron games. the movie games were crap and the game that combined both movie and Fall and War of Cybertron sucked a new Prototype would also be good as well.

jaymacx854d ago

You deserve a 1000 likes haha 😂. It’s a shame High Moon didn’t get to continue making Transformers. If they got a decent budget i think most of us TF fans would be excited.

wolf581854d ago (Edited 854d ago )

Ms bought Activision and everybody dancing for what? For cod? Ms want to atleast earn some money Back from those 70 billion dollars.... The only thing they count on is more gamepass subscribers via Activision cod, diablo and over watch 2 1st Day free at gamepass. If they decide to make them exclusive to xbox they Will lose profit from ps4 and 5 sales. As For a New ip or an existing ip like over watch 3,diablo 5 or anything else like a New transformers Dont you think that developers need at least 3 years to Do something decent?
Anyway my opinion is that ms want to make videogaming Just a subscription a la netflix and that ps5 will beat xboxsx in sales like ps4 beat xbox and xbox one x..... All the money ms spending It Will defentily make more gamepass subscribers as for games we all must wait at least 3 more years... And thats why ps5 will get ahead in sales they have more AAA in the pipeline already plus lets see their answer for gamepass... P. S i Dont support subscriptions from neither company and i didnt buy switch plus for n64. If they give me the option to buy n64 games then yes i Will buy them but i am not paying for a rental.

Re-imagining of River Raid and the original adventurer Pitfall. Oh Zork is also a great game.
