    crazy video from some dude that has the game, no missions, its just 5 minutes of him killing people and generally creating chaos. enjoy

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hrkAiOYnRbQ

    highlights for me:

    mowing down pedestrians with the car at the start, i thought the flip and throw car was just 1 motion, didnt know you could hold on to cars and use them like that :P

    grabbing people by the head and then running with them like they were dolls. and the dude that goes "no man no!" when you grab him made me chuckle

    running on walls and then jumping and flying (or gliding) reminds me of the freedom of movement from spiderman 2. in fact, there seems to be as much verticality as in the spiderman games

    the bus at the end of the video backing up trying to get away from alex made me laugh

    the random curb stomp near the end because i was wondering if you could do that in the game, and now i know :p

    I completely agree with the point about the Spiderman games.  The whole time I was watching that, especially the wall-running, I was thinking of how much it looks and feels like Spiderman 2.  Which isn't by any means a bad thing, as the best part of Spiderman 2 was swinging and cruising through the city. 

    Definitely excited about this one.

    man amazing how Prototype and Infamous are so similar and both are good games.  I love it when peogrammers put their effort into making quality games instead of trying to churn out games with a nice coat but no quality.

    Way to go

    Well this video answered a few questions for me, frame rate seems stable, number of things on the street (pedestrians and cars) seems nice and high too. The animations and sense of seed are also nicely achieved. Now for the biggest question, is it fun? I'm still waiting on a reviews to see if I'll get this or infamous.

    What else is their too say? I'm not so sure about it...seems repetitive. I don't  feel the need too flesh that out if I don't feel like it.

    Go fuck yourself.
