Prototype first impressions

First of all, kudos to Radical for simply making Hulk: Ultimate Destruction over again. That game was amazing, and this is just more of it, with bells on. That is a standing ovation from me. The kind of destructive freedom this game gives you makes me all warm and fuzzy inside. It's just blindingly over the top. I don't particularly care about the story much, but they're doing a very good job trying to make me care, and it's easily appreciated. Nice and bleak evil government agency conspiracy with a bunch of pink monsters thrown into it. My biggest fear now is that the entire city is going to wind up infected by the disease; those areas are seriously fugly.

Second, it runs surprisingly well on my computer, which has a pretty low-end Quadro graphics card. It runs far better than The Sims 3, which surprised me a lot. It's not super pretty, but it stays dead on at 30fps or higher. More kudos to Radical for an engine that scales so nicely; it seems console->pc ports mostly don't care so much about PCs lower specced than the console they originally ran on (which happens these days).

Third.. Not that Brads review was negative (this is a four star game for sure), but i can't help but wonder if his opinion wasn't colored at least slightly by having been so infatuated with Infamous. In my mind there's only so many open world superpowered-dude-in-a-busted-up-city you can play within such a short time.

I hope Infamous doesn't deter anyone from playing this. I'm having a hell of a lot of fun. It's just an incredibly generous game.
