Prototype

For the longest I have wanted to finish this game as a kid during my time when there was Circuit City in Robinson's Tacloban I have finally got the game that I am willing to play.

Before Saints Row IV I actually get to play with both using superpowers and guns at the same time! It's like Grand Theft Auto with superpowers but I can't really drive cars in the game I can actually drive tanks and fly helicopters to shoot enemies along the way.

The story is really good. Although there are parts that are a tiny bit complicated it is still good to learn a bit more about Alex Mercer how he became the Prototype and why he was infected by the Mercer virus the gameplay is absolutely the most fun that I ever have that I can have creative ways to kill an enemy with the use of superpowers and guns. The best part of this game is that I can do endless dive kicks and powerbomb. As I progress the game starts to get a bit difficult and it really does motivate me to farm enemies to get experience and even find ways to heal myself with a disguise.

And the final boss battle is a bit too challenging. It really finds ways to almost smart how the bosses are.

Prototype is absolutely the best experience that I ever played and the best first game in which I can actually use both superpowers and guns.

For its release time 2009 it was top notch, its seamless control scheme and sandbox environment made it a perfect 10 for me and my go to game if I want to just unleash unconstrained, self indulgent mayhem.

One thing I always disliked about it, and probably the reason why I deduct a point is sound design; it lacks oomph, it lacks definite power.

The storyline is a total cliche virus-plague threatening to end humanity. It's just there just to keep events moving forward and to escalate over an ever increasing sense of danger and foreboding.

Characters? Lol no and who cares, this isn't a movie.

Don't worry, at the end of the story can you free roam and make New York your ♥♥♥♥♥.

"Prototype" 2009 is a game that plunges from the first minutes into a gloomy and destructive New York City, torn apart by an epidemic and military conflicts. Thanks to decent graphics, the city looks gloomy and atmospheric: the streets are filled with people running in panic, infected areas are striking with bloody details, and epic explosions add a sense of chaos. I remember how sometimes the textures sometimes "poured" from the excessive workload of the scene - from the large number of details in the frame, but it was still cool to play.

The plot of the game fascinates with its dark style and unexpected twists. The main character named Alex Mercer is trying to figure out who is behind his transformation into a living weapon, while simultaneously trying to regain his lost memory. The story develops through scenes, flashbacks, and dialogues with key characters. The story retains interest, although closer to the finale it sometimes seems a little delayed.

The mechanics of the game are one of the main advantages of Prototype. The player is offered almost unlimited freedom of action. The protagonist has incredible mobility: he easily jumps on buildings, hovers over streets and rapidly descends, breaking the asphalt. These movements are somewhat reminiscent of games about Spider-Man or Batman, but they are made with much more brutality. Exploring an interactive city is interesting: you can destroy objects, create chaos, or just watch the life of a megalopolis gradually sinking into madness. And the plot will contribute to the escalation of chaos.

The fights in the game are real bloody shows. Alex has many unique attacks, and each new ability adds variety to the game. The leveling system allows you to enhance your character by unlocking abilities such as giant claws, tentacles that turn everything into a bloody mess, or super-powerful blows that take down entire groups of enemies. These "supervaflies" set the heat.

The missions in the game are quite diverse, but over time they begin to repeat themselves. Chasing, destroying enemies, protecting objects - all this is done interestingly, but sometimes there is a feeling of monotony. However, thanks to the freedom to choose tactics, you can find different approaches, which helps to cope with the routine.

In the second half of the game, the difficulty increases: there are more enemies, they are stronger and more aggressive. This adds to the challenge, although sometimes it turns battles into real torture. However, colorful battle scenes and a sense of hero power compensate for the difficulty.

"Prototype" is a game that impresses with its freedom of action, exciting battles and unique atmosphere. Despite its flaws, it remains one of the most vivid memories.

9 out of 10.

Various aspects of the game such as the repetitive mission design, irritating targeting system, and the stealth system, hold Prototype back from reaching its full potential. But playing as an anti hero and going on a rampage, terrorizing the city, and uncovering this vast crazy conspiracy, is so much fun and a good time overall. If you can overlook these issues Prototype is a fun time overall.

I first played this game. I thought it was excellent, but then it got some bad reviews.

So I was hesitant at buying it. But the cool cover and all that hype just overtook me and I brought the game home and gave it a try.

Let's just say, if you like destruction, this is the game for you. Tanks, choppers, hordes of mad mutants and legions of soldiers, this game just rocks. You get to beat the crap outta your enemies, use awesome morphosis powers to change your body into weapons, and just lay waste to everyone you see.

This is the game for everyone who loves blowing stuff up.
