Prototype Comes Back from the Dead
47
Prototype was a hotly anticipated open-world action game that was originally supposed to release last year. After an impressive showing at GDC, Prototype continued to dazzle the media until one day it slipped to a 2009 release and then disappeared off the radar.
Not any more. Prototype is back, and before its big re-reveal at the CES in Vegas, they're going to give us a little teaser... tonight.

They delayed it because of the multiplayer? Or do you mean co-op? I didn't know there was any other kind of multiplayer for this game other than the co-op.

Some peoples lump co-op in with multiplayer because co-op is more than just one player. Cookigaki does not know if there is more than just co-op, but Cookigaki does know it was delayed because of multiplayer.

Sure it was. Cookigaki knows single player was pretty much done but they were working on multiplayer stuff and adding polish. Knowing single player just had more time in oven even though it was already mostly done should make peoples feel better about the game and that it will be polished and not buggy like Mercs 2.

Because they are owned by GameStop and probably offer promotions of their games for the companies in return for exclusives. GameStop is the devil.

I've never seen Infamous in action, but Prototype looked awesome when it was demoed, especially if they keep the co-op. Infamous sounds neat but I haven't seen it so I'm not convinced yet.

In most Prototype threads I've read there's always been someone writing "INFamous > Prototype" or the other way around.
Both look good. IGN posted some nice gameplay videos of INFamous a while ago.

3.7 - Well...
allegedly a dev for Prototype said that the reason they had to go back to the drawing board was due to how impressive inFamous was. I'm not saying I agree or believe this to be true, but you may remember the article talking about it if you were an N4G member about 5-6 months ago (?). I would expect inFamous to be a bit better, though, since it's an exclusive (examples: Gears 2, MGS4, LBP, Fable II - these are generally considered the top-tiered games). I think it would be harder for Prototype to impress on both consoles, but that doesn't mean it isn't possible. Hopefully both titles will be great:)

Prototype is currently my favourite to focus on, because I love that idea of absorbing people and getting their abilities, that and wall running looks excellent. Also its virtually come out of nowhere in the last year.

yeah i think Prototype looks better than inFamous. depends on just how many abilities each game will grant the player honestly. inFamous, so far, deals only with electrical powers. Prototype seems a little more ruthless in that you can body snatch, jump helicopters, rip people apart, etc etc. just seems like there's more in Prototype versus inFamous. also, inFamous is single player only.

Thats nothing, theres the awesome 'leaked' footage from Prototype's website that time, supposedly what may be shown as CES.
So I'm not going to post it here, but I've posted it at least 3 times in threads in the last month.
I'm really hyped for this one. It just looks so chaotic and beautiful.

12 - I was excited about this game...
then I saw some gameplay and the game mechanics just looked broken. The visuals were very sub-par. Though I have to say, the concept of Prototye is awesome and I think they'll fix much of this mess in the end. I'll wait and see, but inFAMOUS should hold me over till I buy it (if at all).

Probably to stand a better chance against INfamous. I think there is room for both games and hope they both will be good.
It looked very interesting before. They have had a long time to make it better and it will be exciting to see how it turned out...

Oh there's room for both alright.
I plan on playing infamous for certain and if Prototype still looks as promising as when it was first revealed then I'll most definitely be playing it also, along with many others I'd guess.

The only bad thing about this game is (IMO) that the graphics and physics are nowhere as good as Infamous.
