Prototype any good?

This game is 50% off at D2D. I was wondering if I should pick it up or not.

Yes, you should. It's hard to find a more extreme action game on PC.

I have played Prototype at my friend's house, and I think that it is ok.

If inFamous was for the PC, I would definitely recommend it over Prototype.

Can you play prototype with the 360 game pad???

Yes you can, but mouse and keyboard is still better. It's a great game, one of the best games of 2009.

It's a very fun game. I had to pick it up eventually for the 360 because I had performance issues on the PC, but despite "downgrading" it was a blast to play. It's also a damn good stress reliever. :)

It's too easy. If you're ahrdcore, avoid this game.

Prototype is excellent. The story is maybe not the best but it's packed with a lot of action! Not to mention how fun it is to tear someone in the half and then consume his body xD I only with for the map to be a bit bigger, but other than that it's a great game and for that price it's a good deal.

get it,

because if you are angry on someone - then you have reason to show your anger.

I bought inFamous the other day and it is soooo boring compared to Prototype, also inFamous is probably one of the most annoying games i've played in recently. The way too grabby controls mixed with the slow climbing whilst being shot at by sniper elite enemies make traveling from point A to B way too annoying.

Prototype does not suffer from these flaws.

The game is awesome

Don't agree with this, one of the great things about the game is that the difficulty curve is spot on.

a gamepad is highly recommended. skrat_01

Don't agree with this either, the mouse and keyboard work great, I tried bot and while the controller is also good, mouse and keyboard edged it for me. It is one of the very very few games that benefit from having v-sync turned on by the way, makes the mouse look more consistant.

Well I just started playing the game and when I try to play at 1920x1080 I get black bars or "shrinked" screen. Does anyone know how to fix this?

I remember somebody from widescreengaming forums or some other place posting about Prototype and the image was stretched so you either see it right or they made some adjustments that made if fullscreen but overall worse.

Enjoyed this game.It didn't require that much thinking, it was more of a "let loose your aggression and stress" type of game. ie:- fun
As for widescreen I run a 1920x1080 monitor and didn't have any black borders. Could be settings incorrect somewhere. I know some games not only let you change resolution but also screen type from 4:3, 16:9, and 16:10. 1920x1200 is 16:10, 1920x1080 is 16:9

I liked the game, but in small doses. Too bad I'm pretty bad at keeping my save files as I had to restart the game twice when I got the itch to play it. As for widesreen, it should be ok. I was able to run it at a 16X9 settings with no black box or stretching... well, it didn't look stretched, you decide:

Well I have been playing at a lower res. for now. Game is pretty fun so far. I don't understand what is going on in the story thoe:(

I wish I could play at 1920x1080:(

How the hell can such a varied game be repetitive?

The problem is yours, not the game's...

It's your problem if you don't know how to properly use the toys you're given. RFG had less toys than Prototype.

I'm always inventing crazy scenarios, instead of grinding my way from point A to point B. Where's the fun in sticking to one way of playing?

I'm sure that GTA4 is hailed an awesome sandbox because you have almost nothing to do except for shooting people with (a couple of guns) and crashing cars. Uninventive people love the illusion of freedom...

Yes, that's what i said ALMOST nothing. Compare it to the other two games - it's a joke in terms of side activities and options. Or have you seriously spent more than 15 minutes watching TV, and have you went bowling more than one time? GTA4 put a whole lot of useless, half-assed crap there. Hey, let's create a fugly and very restricted in-game Internet instead of making a proper ARG in real life!

As I understand, the "mess" you talk about is the chaos of the setting. Well, since the game is set during a zombie apocalypse, I don't see how this is a valid criticism. Multitasking and improvisation are the whole point of Prototype. If you can't master them, it's no wonder you'll never be able to do inventive things.

I wonder if you'd like Saints Row 2 then, since you can't even go buy a pair of pants without blowing up an entire city block.

And I hate GTA's controls. Niko feels like a tank. He's a war veteran, a guerrilla war vet. Rockstar thinks realism means clumsiness. Not to mention that the cars can steer while in mid-air.

If you like those free roaming action games where you feel indistructable and have demonic superpowers, totally get it.
