Prototype is an aptly named game. There are some fantastic ideas at its core, but the game is so sloppily put together that it feels like it's still in the prototype stage and not quite ready for mass production.
Alex Mercer finds himself with amnesia and incredible new abilities, pursued by the military and trapped in a New York City in the grips of a terrible biological crisis. A truly inspired touch here is the Web of Intrigue, an inventive narrative technique where Alex receives memories from his victims to reveal back-story. Unfortunately, the developers then second-guess themselves, insisting on also resorting to rather terrible cut scenes to advance the story, resulting in a messy plot that never really makes sense. Alex as a character fares no better, with an indistinct personality that few gamers will relate to.
Prototype's New York is massive in scale, providing a bustling sandbox packed to the brim with missions and side missions. The scope came at the cost of depth, though, with the city appearing bland and artificial, held back by a visual presentation that lacks both style and substance.
Most missions involve Alex unleashing violence and chaos upon his enemies, and the tools the game provides to this end are simply awesome. With a stunning range of wildly impressive powers and abilities, every combat encounter turns into a wonderfully satisfying and exaggerated cacophony of carnage.
Moving around the city can be equally satisfying as Alex is impossibly quick and acrobatic. But it doesn't take long for the cracks to show themselves here too, with a broken targeting system and controls that fall apart whenever more precise actions are attempted. The mission quality is also inconsistent, with fantastically fun endeavors often followed by infuriatingly frustrating chores.
Prototype has enough content to keep players busy for a few dozen hours. However, one can't help but wish that the developers had tempered their ambitions and rather allowed their best ideas to properly incubate. As it is, Prototype offers lots of fun, but ultimately lacks the subtlety and focus that turns a good game into a great one.
