First off, if your a puzzle, or adventure game fan, this game isn't for you, Prototype is an action packed game, its not heavy on complexities or boredom.

To sum up the game, your basically a guy that unleashed a plague on the city, and in doing so you also infected yourself which turns you into a super being.. well sorta, i don't wanna give away the story, so we can just stick with that for now and you can unravel the truth through gameplay, but that is basically the intro plot to the game, and you gotta go around fighting government agencies and the mutated creatures that are created by the virus while unraveling a highly interesting, and incredibly cool storyline filled with special op government agencies, and mutated creatures that are trying to kill you most of the time in a new york city that is slowly being taken over by the plague.

This game was amazing, and no matter what anyone says it was a masterpiece in its genre, amazing art and style, exciting game play that made you feel like a god among men, and mutants (oh and zombies) .. throwing around cars, devastating entire blocks with powerful attacks which you can upgrade with experience points over time, graphics, animations, sounds, environments, characters, story, etc were all done very well, and the coding was done well, no major memory leaks or crash issues that i noticed.

One small problem i did have was that as you learned more combos and attacks it did get a little confusing remembering all the combination so i would suggest if you play this game only have this one on the go, don't bounce between several different titles or the combos will fade slightly from your memory, so its best to stay focused on this game while your working your way through it, oh and OCCASIONALLY the controls felt slightly clunky and unresponsive.. but not enough to lessen the enjoyment of the game play much so its no problem.

but ya, if your a fan of action packed open exciting games then grab this one, i got a good 20-30 hours of game play out of it and i feel it was time and money well spent.
