E3 2011: Prototype 2 Trailer

#1 Edited by Piranesi (451 posts) - 2 years, 12 days ago

This should be good ... Prototype had some great elements but didn't feel complete. Hopefully it will look a little prettier as well.

I still need to play Protoype...

#9 Edited by Kasswara (173 posts) - 2 years, 12 days ago

Intrigued, I hope it's more open world than the first one.

#10 Posted by WilliamHenry (1085 posts) - 2 years, 12 days ago

Looks like you can destroy a lot of stuff, so I'm in. Just hope it doesn't get as repetitive as the first.

What do you mean? The first one was completely open world.

Inceptiontype 2. 

#14 Posted by Lydian_Sel (2273 posts) - 2 years, 12 days ago

Isn't this trailer exactly the same as the previous one?

#15 Posted by Antarok (55 posts) - 2 years, 12 days ago

Cant wait! The first one was fantastic!

#16 Posted by Zapato (84 posts) - 2 years, 12 days ago

Wrong trailer, this is the first one.

#17 Posted by Redbullet685 (5787 posts) - 2 years, 12 days ago

Hopefully they'll make the side missions a bit more.. meaningful.

#22 Posted by EricWinholt (51 posts) - 2 years, 12 days ago

Looks pretty rad. Too bad it isn't until 2012. :/

#23 Posted by Branthog (7051 posts) - 2 years, 12 days ago

I don't really care. I thought the first one was okay. I didn't bother playing Infamous for the longest time, because I wasn't very impressed with Prototype and didn't see much point in playing "more of it". After having played Infamous, I concluded that despite them having almost the same story and almost the same characters and almost the same gameplay, Infamous is the superior game. Infamous 2 doesn't even look like it and Prototype belong in the same generation of videogames. And it plays better, while Prototype just felt empty and flat.

I don't feel compelled to play Prototype 2 at the moment, but after playing Infamous a few weeks ago, I can't wait for the sequel to arrive, tomorrow. I doubt I'll feel the same excitement when Prototype 2 came.

The problem with being so similar (and coming out at the same time) is that you have to be even better than the competition to overcome the "meh" the similarities inspire.

I hope they make this one good this time.

#25 Posted by Mercanis (651 posts) - 2 years, 12 days ago

But can I elbow drop tanks?

#26 Posted by Godlyawesomeguy (6031 posts) - 2 years, 12 days ago

YES. DO WANT NOW.

#27 Posted by SkinnyBlue (320 posts) - 2 years, 12 days ago

Looks promising. Never got to play the first one, should I bother?

@XlxLionhearTxlX:  are you thinking of the right game?
#29 Posted by Robopengy (319 posts) - 2 years, 12 days ago

Trailers sure do love that Inception sound these days

#30 Posted by Rekt_Hed (738 posts) - 2 years, 12 days ago

Its OK if you can get it cheap.  Nothing groundbreaking, but its alright.
#32 Posted by MentalDisruption (1401 posts) - 2 years, 12 days ago

This is the same trailer they showed last year at the VGA :\. Was hoping for something new.

#33 Posted by thedevilbat (49 posts) - 2 years, 12 days ago

Had a good time with the first. Looking forward to this.

#34 Posted by RVonE (4113 posts) - 2 years, 12 days ago

Not impressed with the look of this game. Then again, I didn't care for the first one either.

#35 Posted by Asmundergunderson (30 posts) - 2 years, 12 days ago

There must be an entire horn section devoted to make BWOOOOONG sounds for trailers these days. Man that must be a kickass job.

#36 Posted by Toxin066 (3074 posts) - 2 years, 12 days ago

I got next to nothing out of this. That said, I still want it. Loved moving through the environment in the first Prototype.

#37 Posted by RsistncE (4496 posts) - 2 years, 12 days ago

This is the EXACT same trailer for almost one fucking year ago. It's nice to know that developers and publishers are too lazy to even fucking put together new trailers any more, makes me want to not play the damn game.

#38 Posted by Xpgamer7 (2266 posts) - 2 years, 12 days ago

I liked the first one, but this looks prettier and faster paced. Can't wait!

#39 Posted by Kyle (2319 posts) - 2 years, 12 days ago

BWAAAAAAAAAOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWW

That Red Zone could use some napalm.

#42 Edited by Zapato (84 posts) - 2 years, 11 days ago

Am I litterly one of the few who knows that they uploaded a 3 month old trailer instead of the new E3 one?
#43 Posted by Dynamo22 (70 posts) - 2 years, 11 days ago

Good I hope you do get to rip Mercer from limb to limb. He sucked along with the first Prototype.

You're not on your own dude. I noticed it too.

#45 Posted by MisterMouse (3497 posts) - 2 years, 11 days ago

seems like a pretty cool set up

#46 Posted by MistaSparkle (2092 posts) - 2 years, 11 days ago

It just doesn't look different enough for me to buy again. We'll see when the quicklook hits though.

#47 Posted by Metalman781 (66 posts) - 2 years, 10 days ago

2012... NOOO! that too far away lol. Cant wait for it to come out
