I went dumpster diving to recover the cellophane sticker from Singularity to get this free in the mail.
Then I never even played it. Still in the cheapo freebie cardboard sleeve.

Was a price mentioned?I'm assuming a ludicrous price tag, like $30 or more.
Would much rather purchase this on Steam!

I'm in the 'loved it' category myself, but there are quite a few things that need to be improved for the sequel. Better enemy variety and ai, and something other than challenges for side quests would be a good place to start.
I attempted a Hard playthrough and almost ate my controller in rage.
It's a fun game as long as it's not on Hard. Then it's just ridiculously unfair.

So much wrong with the first game, I just stopped playing midway. It's honestly frustrating. There was so much promise and potential in it that I really wanted to like it. But the main character and some iffy gameplay choices just killed it for me. I'm still curious on what they come out with and I'm hoping this isn't like the Crackdown to Crackdown 2 type of upgrade.
Infamous is better.
Yeah I didnt bring it back up again!
but seriously while the first was in my opinion annoying and ugly (oh god if I fall over due to rockets one more time I will kill someone). The concept of a crazy monster running around causing chaos is still appealing.
so bring it!

Nice. The first Prototype is pretty good. I mean, the story is meh and the graphics are sub-par but the gameplay definitely made up for that. That was actually one of the complaints though that I heard. There were too many superpowers but not enough interesting main/side quests to really use them for though. I usually just found myself throwing cars around at people.
I wish the graphics/story were on par with InFamous which is ironic because Prototype definitely has better gameplay whereas InFammous has better graphics/story/side quests/etc. If only Sucker Punch Productions and Radical Entertainment would work on a game together. Now THAT would be awesome.

I liked it a lot even though it got frustratingly hard towards the end. I don't see a lot different so far with the new one though. I'm hoping it doesn't just seem like an expansion pack.
I'm actually playing infamous now, and it's pretty solid. The side missions are a tad repetitive and there's far too many shards to collect imo, but aside from that it's a solid game that has lots of potential as a series.
I was actually wondering why a sequel was being made. I didn't know the actual sales count. Well, more power to people who enjoy this game, I couldn't believe my save was erased on me a few times.
it's ok to like both right?
I mean hypothetically?
not that I do ... my friend does
MUST CHOOSE A SIDE

"Better than Infamous? Are you fucking high? Infamous is AAA, Protoype is a mediocre game."
What does Infamous being an abdominal aortic aneurysm have to do with its quality as a game?

If it's retail price i'll buy used. It should be $20 max, but considering PoP and GoW HD costs $15 each i doubt it.
I was pretty let down by the execution in Prototype, but I would definitely check out a demo for 2. Long wait though. I'm not sure why games are announced this early. People will probably have completely forgotten about this early hype by the time the game is anywhere near release.
Hey, do you think the hero will have evolved into something new? Like something better than the humorless cunt from the last game?
Prototype is simply one of the most fun games to just dick around in ever.

Perhaps you forgot that FFXIII is also on the 360...?
In all seriousness I wish I'd read that article when it was first released - hilarious stuff.

Personally, I found Prototype more enjoyable than Infamous simply because you had better control of the main character, not to mention a much wider variety in combat. Infamous definitely took the cake in terms of creating a unique world, but I had more fun playing Prototype, aside from when the game would sneak in a sudden jump in difficulty to screw with you.
Another game where you could show Sterling examples of how bad this game is, yet he wont believe you because he's a tool.
It was a mediocre knock off of Hulk Ultimate Destruction basically.

Infamous is tied for best game on PS3, IMHO. I never play a game again once I beat it. Infamous however, I beat 3 times. It's just FUN. Prototype I struggled ot finish. Between HORRIBLE load times and a quest structure that was clunky, prototype had potential, but it just wasn't very polished.
Hopefully they learned their lessons. I will play Prototype 2, but it better be WAY more polished than Prototype.

Prototype was decent but like everyone says it just really lacked polish.
Eating people and taking their form loses its appeal when there are all of 5 character models walking down the street.and the stealth based crap was annoying( those freaking sensors,especially the flying ones).
Graphics were lackluster in general and while it had decent - good gameplay the boss fights were just annyoing as hell.
Hit and run, smash mooks, eat em for health, rinse and repeat till dead.
But the series has an interesting concept, it just Reeeeaallly needs to be developed better.

I'm in the "love it" category simply a great game. Open fun world , great controls (in my opinion), great physics and an overall fun feeling when playing it.
I liked infamous but wasn't complete sold on the imersion.

It's hard to believe that they were able to justify a sequel when the game just looked so mediocre. It's a cool concept and the gameplay was fine, but the next game is going to need a huge makeover to keep up with todays standards.
All of these points are well taken, but the capitalization of "famous" in "inFAMOUS" (and not the "in"!) is still dumb.
Really fun game to screw around in but the missions (especially the end boss) were pretty awful. If they improve on the good stuff and fix the bad I'll buy it but I'm definitely renting first.
I love Prototype in spite of its flaws. It has a mean difficulty spike, a few odd controls, some ok graphics and a cool Web of Intrigue story that doesn't quite work as well as it should but God is that game fun. The game is built to make you the ultimate badass and puts you against the world. There are so many powers and nasty combos to use. With the amount of things you can do in this game I'm surprised it works at all.
The first one was ok. Would've been better but I had just played the Spider-man game before it, and Prototype was pretty much the same game with a different character.
I prefer Web of Shadows, to be honest, and that's coming from someone who doesn't like Spider-man at all. The settings are virtually identical (NYC taken over by symbiotic virusy things), but WoS had allies that would help you in battle and multiple story paths. My favorite parts were the evil "I am the Spider" endings. Those kicked so much ass.
The only thing Prototype had going for it was generic mayhem. The story had an interesting twist, but nobody noticed due to what was lost between concept and execution. We were talking about that just last night.
