[PROTOTYPE] (review on PC)

GOOD:
Action! Action! and one more time..ACTION! There's a lot of action in this game and it's so much fun. I have probably never played a game that has more action then [Prototype].
There are also so many upgrades for the main character. So many that it may actually be too many for some, but not for me! You earn Evolution Points (EV) by almost doing anything in the game (missions, destruction, etc.) and you spend EP on upgrades such as new moves, powers, etc. And most of the upgrades are so much fun to use. Some are very useful, others - just for fun.
Animations for Alex Mercer (main character) aro also very well done. He moves like a human (well technically he's not human anymore) and his moves and powers look and feel amazing.
Vehicles..there are only 2: tank and helicopter, but very surprisingly they control and feel very well. Especially helicopter, I was afraid that heli will be useless but it's actually easy to use and very useful. There are also 2 types of tanks and one of them is very powerful that it's rocket blast feels like a small atomic bomb (really sweet!).
The game's missions are also pretty fun as it let's you do the mission almost anyway you want since you can use any powers/moves you want. There are also many mini-games that are actually fun and useful. My favorites are gliding and consuming.
Other great thing is that after you finish the main missions you can continue playing the game just like in GTA with all your unlocks. You can do side missions or just cause destruction.
You can climb and pick almost any object in the game and use it as a weapon. Travelling is also very fun because it's a mixture between Spider-Man, Hulk and Superman. You can glide, jump, run, etc. Travelling almost never gets boring (*cough* FarCry 2).
You can also consume anyone and become the one you consume (excludes infected). Consuming is very important for: it gives health and stealth. Very important factors in the game.
Story is also interesting and told interestingly. Characters are few but interesting. You can consume special people in the city to uncover even more of the story in a very unique cutscenes.
And again..this game is just pure action. You'll fight mutants, soldier, zombies, helicopters, tanks, etc. but most of the time it's gonna be a very fun and enjoyable fight because of all the powers and awesome moves Alex has.

BAD:
Graphics are not the best..This is definitely no GTA IV and doesn't have unique and relevant to New York building. Most of the building look the same..boring and dull. Draw distance is also bad, when you are high with heli, mostly you'll see fog and it doesn't look too good.
Soundtrack and voice acting are nothing special. I would like the game to have more intense and varied music as well as better voice actors who actually put some emotions while acting.
Cutscenes..they look pretty bad (only few are 'high-res') and most of them are pretty boring. When compared to GTA IV cutscenes, which are very fun to watch and feels like you watching a movie, [Prototype] cutscenes are just short conversations where someone tells Alex to do something and he drops few words before cutscene ends. Story is interesting, but cutscenes should have used much more work.
Difficulty..well the game is not that hard, but you will die a lot of time (at least I did) and some missions can get frustrated.

OVERALL:
I was never too interested in this games, but I am very very happy that I picked it up, because it's a perfect game after a long working or school day.

9/10
