In Prototype, you play as Alex Mercer, a hooded, mysterious denizen of New York City. So mysterious, in fact, he doesn’t even know anything about his origin. As Radical describes him, Alex is a “dark anti-hero.” When he awakens in the city, Alex has no idea who, what, or where he is. All he knows is he has some truly freaky powers, and he’s pretty much an unstoppable juggernaut.

Alex is the Prototype, a powerful shapeshifter walking the streets of modern-day Manhattan. To alter his appearance, all Alex has to do is “consume” a human victim, then he can assume their identity. It’s effective, but probably not a talent you want to show off in front of your mom. While you have no clue as to who or what you are, you do know that a top-secret military branch of Black Watch Special Forces are currently rolling into the city to declare martial law at just about the same time you happen to be there, so you figure there’s a connection somewhere.

This game should be released in the summer to fall time. I think this will be a candidate for game of the year when it drops.  Will keep you up to date on this one.
