It's actually been a couple weeks since I got my GI07-07, but the cover story for it was a game called 'Prototype' - that article seems to have the most information available on it. I've searched all over but there is next to nothing else around for it. Wondering if any of you guys saw/read it also?

I don't have it with me right at this second, but from what I remember off the top of my head is it sets you up by waking up in a lab, no memory/past, blah blah blah. What's cool though is every NPC this character kills gets absorbed, and all the skills, knowledge, and even the physical image of them becomes available. Meaning, you can take on the form of anyone you kill. I.E. You kill a helicopter pilot, then not only can change yourself to look like him, but also you immediately learn how to fly the helicopter. Also as this "biomass" becomes more dense, you gain abilities like making your skin into an impenetrable shield, or from some of the screens I saw turning your arms into these hulking demonic looking arm things. There are I think 2 or 3 "factions" alien vs humans, etc.which using the aforementioned mechanics you can turn them on each other and at times on themselves. The example given if I remember correctly was something like 'killing a general on the human side, attacking another human soldier, making everyone think he's the imposter/prototype, then as everyone is distracted, go into the base and aim missles at the alien 'hive' which causes the aliens to attack the humans, and so on.

The world itself is completely open ala Crackdown complete with superpowered jumping abilities along with whatever else they give you, but set completely in New York City. There are supposedly weeks worth of fully fleshed out, scheduled days. Complete with day/night cycles and weather. By the time the days repeat, there are enough to where you probably won't notice.

I can't for the life of me find any other information on this game but it's being developed by Radical Entertainment and here's a link to the cover : http://www.gameinformer.com/News/Story/200707/N07.0709.1006.14113.htm
