Prototype Countdown

If you head over to the Prototype official site, you will notice a countdown with about five days left. What the countdown is for is anybody's guess.

with inFAMOUS getting a lot of hype, this multiplat has a lot to prove. I'm hoping for the best, but expecting something mediocre.

Cajun Chicken6007d ago

Have you SEEN the footage? Crackdown, Assassin's Creed and Kirby...where can you go wrong?

I am so freaking excited for this game!!!

TheColbertinator6007d ago

They both look good except Infamous is more focused on ground combat and being a hero.Prototype is about blowing stuff up and cutting it down

Cajun Chicken6007d ago

I heard you can choose to be a bad guy in Infamous too.
But I've always heard a lot about Infamous and been looking forward to it since Crackdown, but Prototype looks like it could be a suprise for a lot of people, I'm especially excited by the disguise aspect of the game, hopefully those bits'll play out like Shiny's Messiah.

Karum6007d ago

Prototype imo is a game that could actually be a sleeper hit in '09. Fits the criteria.

Looking forward to seeing what is revealed because I haven't seen anything on this game in a long time after seeing a trailer for it in what seems like a couple of years.

LONEWOLF2316007d ago

I dont know man this game seems more appealing than inFamous.
Dont get me wrong im more than sure inFamous will be a great game BUT chances are it will pale in comparison to this one.

Those "new" videos that we saw last month will be shown at GDC.

Are_The_MaDNess6007d ago

RememberThe3576007d ago

Now I'm going to see if it comes true.

Are_The_MaDNess6007d ago

but what kind of demo then?
its a sandbox game
the demo got 2 b like 10GB
if it is a demo tho

Dawn_Of_Ashes6007d ago

i will not buy this game cause its from activishit

Itrguy0016007d ago

their only the publishers they have no say on what the devs did to the game so it might turn out good or it might turn out bad

VMAN_016007d ago

Good then theres one more copy for people who are actually interested in the game.

Ranking The Coldest, Most Ruthless Protagonists In Gaming

Not all video game protagonists are sweet, jolly, or wholesome. Folks like Agent 47 are cold, ruthless, and reserved and it shows.

cloganart334d ago

I'd like to believe Joel's situation is more about turning into a calloused survivor in a cold-hard world who may have made selfish decisions. Not inherently ruthless.

Armyofdarkness335d ago

Ah, fond memories of strangling all the people in their hotel rooms in Hitman 1

bunt-custardly335d ago

Lara Croft, Nathan Drake etc, cos they pretend to be the good guys but are mass murderers that show no remorse.

6 Fun Games Where You Actually Play As The Bad Guy

While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.

Profchaos416d ago

Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.

It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny

Tacoboto416d ago

Armored Core VI?

Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.

Is something big coming soon to branch the story?

banger88416d ago

No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).

ChasterMies416d ago

Trevor in GTA 6 is a sadist and psychopath who dabbles in cannibalism. Should be top of the list. These game “news” sites should hire people that know games.

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.

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.

Crows901239d 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.

LWOGaming1239d 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.

TallDarknWavy1239d 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.

gamer78041239d ago

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

Gamer751239d ago

Why not a combination of both

gamer78041239d 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_Noctis1239d 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).

porkChop1239d ago

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

MadLad1239d 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.

jaymacx1239d 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.

wolf5811239d ago (Edited 1239d 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.

Re-imagining of River Raid and the original adventurer Pitfall. Oh Zork is also a great game.
