Sweet! DLC down the road. I'll be playing this game till the Fall.

Wait a second, so Heller won't be able to transform to an armored form in Prototype 2?

Eiffel4788d ago (Edited 4788d ago )

I think it would have been a rather redundant choice to bring it back given the new shield covers most of your body.

fallacious4788d ago

Good point, but still I would've liked to have an armored option. Mercer looked so badass with the armor in Proto1.

Eiffel4788d ago

I won't argue, when I heard it wasn't gonna make a return I felt kinda sadden by it, the armor certainly made you feel like a freak of nature fighting the military.

There's always DLC, part of those Radnet challenges do evolve new skins, here's hoping.

While i appreciate the gesture.... all of these retro classics have been made available everywhere else. I am hoping to see some other Activision properties make their way out of the shackles of the 5th, 6th and 7th gen. Licensing be damned... bring back the Transformers Cybertron games.

Love the Cybertron games! TF games have been shit lately. Would love to see that era revisited. I even did the multiplayer!

MrBaskerville12d ago

Is the retro classics for all consoles?

Obscure_Observer12d ago

Metaphor on Gamepass just announced! O.o

Seriously, this is the best generation of Xbox ever!!!

We can´t catch a freaking break from awesome games arriving all the time!!!

It’s a HELL of a game. If you like JRPGs in the family of Persona, you will be in heaven… that is until you hear the various battle music…. then you’ll be somewhere BEYOND heaven!

Just finished Clair Obscur. This should be fun.

Only a big company that has interest in gaming like Microsoft or Tencent could have acquired Activision. Extremely low interest rates at that time certainly helped.

Not exactly sure that a merger with EA would’ve benefited any of their franchises or gamers. I imagine it would’ve been like the activision blizzard one were each publisher retains their own identity. So Activison-Blizzard-EA. But who knows.

fsfsxii110d ago

If it was owned by EA, COD could’ve disappeared a looong time ago. They have no clue how to manage franchises.

Gamingsince198196d ago

It's a shame EA didn't buy them then, COD should die, it's past its prime and has been since black ops 2, I started playing it when cod 4 mw first came out and it has been downhill since.

thank goodness we dodged that landmine 😒
