GamesRadar is not saying that Grand Theft Auto IV will suck. In fact, they think it'll be one of next year's must have titles. It's just that there's another awesome open-world action title set in New York (the real one) in the works that might make Rockstar take the backseat in 2008. The game's called Prototype, and even in its early stages of development, it looks ready to outshine GTA IV in almost every way. Yes, they're being serious.
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).
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.
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.
Re-imagining of River Raid and the original adventurer Pitfall. Oh Zork is also a great game.
Movies and games have always had a closer connection. There has been an increasing trend in Hollywood to transform successful games in movies. While most of them have turned out to be disasters lik…
I am going to be honest, I thought infamous looked better then prototype. The graphics and gameplay looks alot better in that game at least from the trailer, and gta 4 surpasses that game in graphics, and gameplay.
don`t compare it to GTA. bad first step.
@ngg12345
yes, INFAMOUS is going to SHOCK the WORLD.
Fun makes a game good. You can add graphics, make the game 100Gb big. Make it run at 120 fps, have 1000 players online, run in 1080p native, but if it is not fun IT DOES NOT MATTER.
of the open world games I've seen up to now. Graphics wise anyway, who knows how it'll play, but the production value is very obviously there.
The worst mistake young franchises like this can have is comparing themselves to the biggest franchise in their respective genre, albeit from a third party, example of this would be Killzone vs. Halo(doomed it before it even released).
This game will be completely different from GTA, and doesn't deserve the comparisons, because it has it's own individuality.
Hopefully this is a good game, and just recalling something, remember the last game to have comparisons like this about itself(True Crime, very impressively mediocre game in my opinion)
