This video gives us new information on a game called Prototype developed by Radical Entertainment. Radical Entertainment is the talented team behind Hulk: Ultimate Destruction, and this Prototype continues to impress as new information comes along. For those of you who have played Hulk: UD you would know how incredibly fun the game was. Running, jumping, and destroying everything in your path as the massive Hulk was an extremely enjoyable experience. If their past work is any indication of how much fun they can squeeze into a game, knowing that the Radical Entertainment team is creating Prototype bodes very well for this game.
Prototype is another sand-box game, but unlike a lot of the lame imitators we see, this actually looks to improve on the formula. Set in New York City which looks either present day or near future, you are a military experiment gone wrong released into the city. You have superhuman abilities at your desposal for both fun and survival. Superhuman strength, increased speed and agility, as well as mutating your arms into deadly weapons. Look for this game this Fall, as I'm sure it will knock your socks off.
My only complaint is the whole hoodie look. Isn't that trend already cashed out? By the time this game hits retail, he might as well be wearing a popped collar and an upside-down visor.
At least it does remove the need to animate realistic hair.
Binny, who is that in your av? It looks like a dude named Albert Fish, the guy Hannibal Lecter is based on. Sick fucker he ate a bunch of kids and shit.
this featurette was brilliantly produced. they must have a hell of pr company behind them. this video alone has got me interested in the game. wasn't that much before. good that someone blogged about it.
but we haven't seen any gameplay, so there's a big chance this will turn out like the creed. which was shit.
No real reason, simply find him interesting. He's a very screwed up old man. There was a new documentary that came out about him recently. It's all quite interesting.
You need to play The Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction. That game kicks ass. Seriously, I have nothing negative to say about it. Well, other than that I think it could have used more destructible buildings, but that's about it. I love running up buildings and dropping elbows on my enemies. Also, you can grab your enemy and take them to the very top of a building and powerbomb them off of it.
Check it out. I find these cases very intersting as well. Not in a pyscho way, more of a pyschological way, trying to understand what makes people do things like this. I think i have read every case on that website.
I read his Wikipedia article and there is some extremely fucked up shit in there. While I find it interesting I certainly wouldn't want him being the online representation of myself, that's why I asked.
@Trevor McGee:
I heard it was really good but I hate The Hulk as a character so I'd rather just wait for this game which is going to be even better, they say.
@Mr Wilson:
I check that kind of stuff out occasionally but it's pretty depressing the way some of these people met their ends...
It is the world we live in...but I generally try to avoid thinking about it. Life just seems better when I'm not thinking about that kind of stuff. I can't help but read the articles sometimes though...human nature and all.
I agree with Trevor that the Hulk:UD should be played, but I understand that you want to wait for this game. It will be much improved, and the developers have said that Prototype is the spiritual sequel to Hulk:UD. If that's the case, prepare to be amazed.
I simply have a strange facination with serial killers/murderers. I personally think that Mr. Fish is possibly one of the worst in a long time. I'm not sure why I still "like" him, but it works for me I guess.

An Ode To Wiisucks:
Hi! My name is Jack Klassen.! I'm a completely ordinary teenage boy from San Diego, California. My interests include soccer, surfing, writing poetry, and luge. I am homeschooled by my father who fought in the Korean War and was exposed to nerve gas. He is kind of crazy but I still love him. We got the Internet two years ago and I started making new friends on Yahoo! messenger. Surprisingly, most of these new friends were older men who wanted to have illegal, underage sex with me. Needless to say, I got a boner like a rocketship and cybersex quickly became my favorite thing in the entire world. Wait, did I say boner like a rocketship? I meant my vagina got as wet as Lake Titicaca. I started saving all of the hot chat sessions I was having with the Pakistanis, lesbians, child molesters and other monsters who were instant messaging me all day and all night, and I decided to put them up here on this website so you can see exactly how disgusting the entire human race is. Since then, I have been in a waterskiing accident that mangled my genitals beyond repair, been diagnosed with cerebral palsy, brain cancer, and Crohn's disease, learned to speak Urdu and French, covered my naked body in superglue, went to French lesbian camp, made a Hindu eat a roast beef sandwich out of my vagina, and ruined perfectly good cybersex for at least one hundred people. Use the menu above to find out more about me and start reading my sexy adventures,

His hands look rather icky
I'm definitely excited for this game. I never got to play Hulk but I did play Crackdown, which seemed similarly cool.
My only complaint is the whole hoodie look. Isn't that trend already cashed out? By the time this game hits retail, he might as well be wearing a popped collar and an upside-down visor.

/History class.
Also, this game looks amazing.
I love being a gamer. This will be another great year.
So the Assasin Creed guy got his ass on a military experiment?
lulz @ Teta
Also, I agree with Maxvest about the hoodie thing. It's played out.
I still like hoodies...
@ Mr Wilson, it sure is Mr Fish. One of my favorite cannibals!
Sonafabitch i knew it. Weird dude. right there. Dahmer takes the cake though for the worst of all time.

Sorry for turning your perfectly good post into a cannibal discussion.
No worries dude. You've actually piqued my curiosity. =)

Welcome to the Prototype Trailer is full of pedophile cannibals post!! Nice of you to join, lol.
I'm up to the needles between the rectum and scrotum part of the story of Mr. Fish. Interesting read.
Yea that parts pretty bad.
Been waiting for this along time.
Snaileb you have been waiting for Prototype or needles between your rectum and scrotum...
This game looks so good
Certainly looking forward to this.
