Prototype Review at CheatCC

CheatCC says, "All in all, Prototype is one of the best games to release this generation and is definitely the best game to drop in 2009 (so far). Outside of the lackluster stealth and disguising mechanic, the brutal combat, huge open-world, varied challenges, and utterly satisfying gameplay makes this a must-have title for any serious gamer's collection. Get ready to put your life on hold!"

I just got the game, its amazing. THIS GAME IS A MUST HAVE AND IS WORTH THE 60 BUCKS. Buy without hesitation guys.

BTW: I only own a PS3 and PROTOTYPE rapes INFAMOUS in fun factor. This game is so good that it will make any fanboy forget about the console wars and just enjoy games again. I haven't had this much fun with a game since the first day I got GTA3. If u enjoy action, U NEED THIS GAME. The graphics are alot better than I expected and the all the youtube vids of this game are no comparison to how entertaining PLAYING the game actually is.

Add me: PSN, deadreckoning666

IrishAssa5427d ago

that's good to hear, I may get it now

DasBunker5427d ago

/S

WildArmed5427d ago

lol i wonder why ur post is in the Open Zone.
oh wait! thats right! fanboys are openly welcome here ^^

SolidAhmed5427d ago

that was a surprise i did not see that coming?

Rainstorm815427d ago

inFAMOUS was great and now Prototype may be great too.

2009 the year of great games.

Rock Bottom5427d ago (Edited 5427d ago )

But there's something I don't get with these sites, I mean 4.9/5? Like seriously?
They should have just made it a complete 5.

If you feel the need to get that much specific with your scores then just use bigger numbers for your rating system. you know like 10/10 or 100/100, something clearer and easier to comprehends. Using something like 5/5 and then partitioning(don't know if this is the right word here) it like this makes you look like someone who doesn't know what he want.

LastDance5427d ago

They must have playd a different game that I was playing yesterday.
The graphics were terrible. The gameplay was cool for about 2 minutes before it got old.

ChampIDC5427d ago

I was going to wait a little on this one, but with all these good scores, I might have to grab it when it goes up on Steam tomorrow.

mistajeff5427d ago

I agree with 1.3. I'm truly baffled at how good of reviews this game is getting, I completely lost interest after a half an hour. In all fairness, the graphics can be good at times, and I'm impressed with how many characters they fit on the screen at once, but at other times the textures look like PS2 textures and the controls are undeniably sloppy. And I completely stopped caring about the plot after maybe 10 minutes. Completely. No interest.

I can't even compare it to infamous because I've hardly played any of infamous, either. But on its own merits, I really don't understand why this game is getting reviews above 7.5.

Zikron5427d ago

@Rock Bottom I'm sorry you have a hard time comprehending decimals. I'll help you out since I'm such a nice guy a 4.9 out of 5 translates as follows:

9.8 out of 10
98 out of 100
This would be equal to an A in school.

I'll make sure to contact any publications I see using decimals and tell them they are hard for my friend Rock Bottom to understand.

red5ive5426d ago

out of 5.... i have never seen anything like this before.

Rock Bottom5426d ago

OMG Zikron, doing fourth grade math with such ease, your mommy must be proud.

"Best game in 2009 (so far)"?.. LMFAO

well looks like the game is decent.. ill get it used when theres nothing worth playing.

raztad5427d ago (Edited 5427d ago )

Just out of curiosity, why do you say that? Have you played the game already?

I'm trying to make my mind and I still find very suspicious that very few reviews are out thus far.

spunnups5427d ago

Better than Killzone 2, Resident Evil 5, Street Fighter 4, AND inFAMOUS? Really?!??!

gamesR4fun5427d ago

not far nough in to give a decent review but the first hour or so in n the games hella fun.
Finished inFamouse and i gotta say graphics dont seem as nice still gameplays solid n hella lots to do XD

mintaro5427d ago

Why not? I'll be inclined to believe if you can tell my why it can't be better than those games.

Eiffel5427d ago

Radical now has their own IP to be proud of.

khrisnifer5427d ago

The game is a must-buy. Got it today. I have both consoles.

Real gamer 4 life5427d ago

Why would ps3 fans hate? When they can play both.

Eiffel5427d ago (Edited 5427d ago )

Of course they're hating, for two reasons.

1. Its multiplat
2. Its a great game.

Anything that is not exclusive is Enemy #1 to them.

lloyd_wonder5427d ago (Edited 5427d ago )

I have inFamous and a PS3. Might pick this up if reviews are consistently high.

A 4.9 is a damn good score.

WildArmed5427d ago (Edited 5427d ago )

lol
ps3 fanboys are having the best time of their lives.
inFAMOUS AND Prototype for PS3 owners! Wowie!
Am i lucky or what!?

btw all fanboys have issues.
and what u said there is absolutely stupid.
90% of those so called 'fanboys' love MW2 n COD4.. yet its a mutliplat.

360 fanboys mite be mad that they only got one of the two best sandbox game of 09 on their consoles.

maniacmayhem5427d ago

Besides Crackdown,

That game was awesome also.

Kushan5427d ago

I can officially say I've played it on both consoles (Albeit only for about 30mins on the PS3) and it's definitely a quality game. Couldn't say I noticed any differences on either console, but that's besides the point: It's a damn fun game and worthy in anyone's collection. And I played infamous as well (once again, briefly) and plan to pick that up at a later date. Don't really know how I can be more neutral than that, both great games, prototype is great on both systems, etc.
Just buy it already.

LONEWOLF2315427d ago

Man my local GS dont get it till tomorrow............

Syronicus5426d ago

Maybe it's not fanboy hate but a more objective look at the game considering that many PS3 owners have had a chance to play inFAMOUS for over a week and know what a great open world super hero game should be like? I am going to rent Prototype but half expect it to be a little shy of the experience that inFAMOUS provided.

Six Activision Games I’d Like to See Revived Under Microsoft

As the world reels from the shockwaves of the seismic news that Microsoft is acquiring the proverbial swamp of the video-game landscape, Activision Blizzard King, it only seems natural that our minds should now shift towards what the fallout will be for presumably years if not decades to come.

MadLad816d ago

Another Prototype would be awesome.

As for Singularity, I don't necessarily need a sequel, I just want to see Raven be able to flex their creative muscle again; not just be relegated to assisting with CoD. A lot of the old guard is still with the company.

That's part of what I'm hoping to see come from this acquisition. Revive teams like Vicarious Visions and Ravem to actually allow them to work on their own new projects again.

Crows90816d ago

As great as that would be the deal wont finalize until end of fiscal year 2023. Until after that date MS wont really have a say as to where resources will be spent. So we wont realistically see anything until perhaps 2026 or later.

LWOGaming815d ago

I think that’s a point that so many people are missing. Things will not change this year or next year at all. Maybe some changes might be apparent in 2024 but 2025/2026 is a good estimate of when things will really start happening. And I don’t think we will see as big a set of changes as some are suggesting.

TallDarknWavy816d ago

Those teams having not worked on anything, the employees find jobs at other companies, they don't just remain unemployed till someone at the publisher decides to revive the team, they need to eat lol

That said, this list of games makes me unexcited for anything outside of CoD that Activision has to offer. All games are in stale genres, like Guitar Hero, Simpsons Hit and Run, these are long surpassed genres that are going to be difficult to revive.

gamer7804816d ago

I want to see new IPs. Not a bunch of forced renovations of old franchises.

Gamer75816d ago

Why not a combination of both

gamer7804816d ago

@gamer75 if it is a combination it has to have my seal of approval. Such as a new Warcraft game or a new Warcraft mmo, or an action game based off the night elves orcs and humans if it’s a new IP. I’ll let you know after I talk with Microsoft

King_Noctis816d ago

Man I’ve been waiting for Protoype since the last one. Protoype could seriously be MS’ answer to Infamous (freaking loved that game as well, hope Sony make a new one soon).

porkChop816d ago

I'd love to see Raven take another crack at Heretic and Hexen.

MadLad816d ago

That's one I see being tossed around a lot to bring back, even if not from Raven themselves.

Put so many hours into those games over the years.

I'd like to see Activision get the Transformers license again and continue the War and Fall of Cybertron games. the movie games were crap and the game that combined both movie and Fall and War of Cybertron sucked a new Prototype would also be good as well.

jaymacx816d ago

You deserve a 1000 likes haha 😂. It’s a shame High Moon didn’t get to continue making Transformers. If they got a decent budget i think most of us TF fans would be excited.

wolf581815d ago (Edited 815d ago )

Ms bought Activision and everybody dancing for what? For cod? Ms want to atleast earn some money Back from those 70 billion dollars.... The only thing they count on is more gamepass subscribers via Activision cod, diablo and over watch 2 1st Day free at gamepass. If they decide to make them exclusive to xbox they Will lose profit from ps4 and 5 sales. As For a New ip or an existing ip like over watch 3,diablo 5 or anything else like a New transformers Dont you think that developers need at least 3 years to Do something decent?
Anyway my opinion is that ms want to make videogaming Just a subscription a la netflix and that ps5 will beat xboxsx in sales like ps4 beat xbox and xbox one x..... All the money ms spending It Will defentily make more gamepass subscribers as for games we all must wait at least 3 more years... And thats why ps5 will get ahead in sales they have more AAA in the pipeline already plus lets see their answer for gamepass... P. S i Dont support subscriptions from neither company and i didnt buy switch plus for n64. If they give me the option to buy n64 games then yes i Will buy them but i am not paying for a rental.
