Prototype 2 Trailer

[Vrex360]

Well, even though it was quite short it still looks pretty cool. If nothing else it'll be cool to know that I'm getting a Prototype 2.
I actually quite liked the original prototype, the gameplay at least was fantastic, the story was interesting and the web of intrigue moments were great fun to watch. Sadly it had weak voice acting, an under characterized protagonist and the missions themselves got kind of repetitive.

So, if the sequel could fix up these issues, I reckon we could be looking at a damn good game. I'd play it, that's for sure, give me more ways to morph and more crazy abilities and I'm there.

One thing though, they would have to find a very drastically different angle for the story because obviously we know that the Blacklight Virus is dangerous, we know about Home Idaho and we know that Gentek and Blackwatch are not nice people.
Elizabeth Greene is dead, but the virus still seems to be raging on, my bet is we finally resolve the Pariah plot.

Might pick it up if I have an extra $60 lying around when it comes out

you can't really tell if that's prototype 2...

You can, look closely.

(Big tentacles sticking out of the ground, NYC, same visual style.)

OT: Meh.

The first wasn't very good. I'm getting annoyed with games telling me I'm supposed to be some amazing guy when everyone else is still perfectly capable of beating the shit out of me.

The same infected visuals are there, and it's set in New York. That's not much to go on, but the visual similarities don't really leave any leeway.

Once you seen one Zombie outbreak you've seen them all. Plus for infected it's lacking the overwhelming red filter.

But I kid. It is more than likely Prototype 2, though I don't really see how they're gonna tack it on to the first.

 

[Woodsey]

i wonder why he is bald?

It's probably a genetic thing, that's where most baldness comes from.

If this is Prototype 2, colour me excited. The first had a ton of potential.

More likely, it's a generic thing (witty, I know) - also, a far better received yet similar game, exclusive to a certain console owned by a certain company whose name rhymes with phony had a bald protagonist.

Oh my god...Is it sad that I just died?

Anyone mind burring my body? X_X

 

[Azaraxzealot]

this was the big announcement?
holy.
fucking.
shit.

YEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!! OMG YES! I LITERALLY JUST CRIED FROM HAPPINESS! A SEQUEL TO PROTOTYPE! YEEEEEEEESSSSSS!!!!!

 

[Asuka Soryu]

That was a trailer? For what? I didn't see a game. Just a blurry mess with "I love New York".

*pinch* you're not dead my friend

i came for the announcement.
and left happier than i was before

THANK YOU OP!

 

[Zhukov]

Eeehhhh...

I will admit that the first game had some potential. But they screwed it up something fierce. It was one of those games where by the end of it I was thinking, "Jesus, thank fuck that's over."

Maybe they can fix it up for the sequel, but I'm not holding my breath.

 

[Olorune]

Seems like some people don't understand the teaser part of the term teaser trailer.

That's partly my fault. I should have posted this as "Prototype 2 Teaser".

 

[Glamorgan]

you can't really tell if that's prototype 2...

It's pretty obvious. If you look at the newspaper articles, and the giant tentacle... thing, it becomes pretty apparent that it's Prototype 2.
Wondering who the bald guy is though. And really hoping it isn't Mercer...

 

[kommando367]

i wonder why he is bald?

If that's Alex Mercer, he might have been bald in the first game and no one could tell because he always has his hood up.

While I'm glad that there is going another Prototype, I do think they need to made their trailers longer.

 

[ThatLankyBastard]

The first game was fun,although it did have some major faults...

I'll have to wait on this one and see how it develops...

But the purple-ness! And the tentacles! Yes, that's right, I'm getting excited about tentacles.

I guess a sequel would catch the 'PARIAH' story bit alluded to in the first game? Elizabeth Greene's son, who was mentioned as not seeming abnormal, but for narrative convenience almost certainly is.

Ow you pinched me :|

Awesome! I loved the first, though it did have some problems, and was pretty mad when InFamous got a sequel and Prototype didn't. Not that I didn't like InFamous, I just want more from them both. Really starting to look forward to the VGAs, maybe they'll actually get it right this time.

 

[JourneyThroughHell]

Yeah, it's Prototype 2, alright. Which is fucking awesome.

I enjoyed the first one greatly, if they can fix some of the things that it fell short on, the second one's going to be amazing.

I just hope Barry Pepper at least tries to voice act this time. He's a decent actor, after all.

 

[Distorted Stu]

Its definatly Prototype 2.. but the clips looks like they are from the orginial game, just with some guy stoof there without a hood. GASP! Alex has taken off his hood?!

He means serious business...

I liked Prototype, probably as much as I like Infamous.

However, I can see where Infamous 2 has revved the engine, I'm curious to see if Prototype 2 will just be a replica of 1 with a few more features or an entirely new game.

The problem with Prototype is like hulk, you become over powered, if there is one thing I can't relate to, its an over powered hero or villain, because no longer do you fear anything or feel a sense of acheivement when you defeat something stronger and bigger than yourself, you just feel like they were flies. Yes, that was fun in Prototype, but it got old quickly.
