Aside from Mercer being the villain in the 2nd one, the thing I remember disappointing me most was that there were fewer moves to unlock, like skateboarding on a dude's face. Still, best movement and combat fun I've had in any video game ever. Taking someone up the Empire State Building by running up the side and then powerbombing them is something no other game can give you.
Streamlining the movement makes me like Prototype 2 just a little bit more, but yeah the lack of customization and style in the second game was a disappointment.

Disagree, most games wouldn't make sense to have super-being movement capable of scaling buildings with ease obviously. Also we've gotten some very good ones with vertical traversal (the only difference in something like this) anyway in Dying Light 1 & 2, and of course there's the modern Spider-Man games
@@cenciende9401 This, I even vouch for modern Spider-Man as it has better side contents when compared to the Prototype franchise. The only thing that I remember of Prototype franchise is destroying the military base or the mutant nest. But what Prototype lack of is made up by their sandbox element, you can roam NYC freely without too much restriction and doing a rampage in between without getting overwhelmed by high-level enemies.
Something that really stuck with me with Prototype 1 was the movement, played it at a friends place and instead of focusing on the Missions I'd just run and jump around.
It made every other open world game before and after feel like trash because you aren't running around at supercar speeds then jumping a quarter of a mile up then gliding half the length of the city. The feeling of freedom makes it so much more fun to inhabit compared to an AC game where the world might be more filled out but it feels like a chore to get between objectives.
The movement in the first game was so much better than the second. You actually felt like you had serious weight behind your jumps and landings not to mention the parkour system being a lot better. That backflip while jumping forward was a chefs kiss…
Literally the same thing. lol. Back in 2009 and 2011 I still worked retail, so this was a big stress reliever to instead of taking orders and listening to customers complain - just run around throwing tanks on people who give orders and civs who complain. lmao.
I remember Prototype was so popular that people in school used to lend their copies to their friends to play. Saw those said copies as well confiscated in the principal office too.
That was me literally i lent this guy who was supposed to be my friend a copy the idiot never returned it and disappeared. Till this day im still hunting for him ahaha.
My favorite thing to do in Prototype 1 was find a conflicted yellow zone, take the form of a soldier, find an M4 and join the military in fighting the mutants on the front lines. You could even get in gunner seats on vehicles or drive the tanks without breaking your disguise. It was insane that you could actually do this and help out as much you could without your powers.
This is one of those games that, as long as you get past technical problems, just feels extremely good to play on something like a Steam Deck or ROG Ally
22:53 if you plan to hijack, use the muscle arm. Most of the time it will remove the lid in just a second. Also the Muscle arm is severely underrated in the first game because it buffs a lot of the things you do if you don't want straight on combat, It makes Hijacking a breeze, throwing becomes viable because it buffs throwing damage and I do believe consuming is also faster due to a different animation but its been a while since I played the first game {I sailed the seven seas for it it back when I was a kid}
All correct. Muscle arm was insane in the first one and was a great hybrid style mutation that let you attack upclose or from afar with throwing. Also I just liked how it looked with the armor. Made you look like a cyborg or something.
@20:53 Knuckle Shockwave does actually stun hunters on max charge, and their recovery time is long enough for another one to be charged. So fully charged knuckle shockwave can effectivelly stunlock hunters, and it's not taken away mid-game when Alex is de-powered, so spamming fully charged knuckle shockwave is the easiest way to defend Ragland during "The Stolen Body" mission. Knuckle Shockwave doesn't stunlock Leader Hunters, but regular hunters are a piece of cake, even on max difficulty. Also, their combo attacks can be avoided by dive-roll, even mid-attack. Sure, you'll take 2-3 hits, but the rest will miss if you diveroll out of the way, and recovery time after diveroll is instant, while Hunter has to finish it's combo once it started, meaning if you diveroll out of the way you can attack Hunter immediately while it's still in it's combo animation.
The enhanced muscle mass is also useful for throwing stuff as it increases dmg. The difference between regular throw and throwing with the muscle mass is huge. I remember cheesing some of the fights on higher difficulty with that
The mission where you have to defend Ragland while he's examining the bodies behind the glass wall can be a CAKE walk if you charge and use the earth pound move (I forgot its real name, you have to press left and right mouse button simultaneously) which actually kills all the charging walkers unlike knuckle shockwave. I'm saying that because I suppose there were a plenty of people who had issues with this particular mission
Out of all the games I always say “man I wish I can play for the first time again…” Prototype is usually one of the first 3 games I think of. It’s an experience that has been done before but never executed with nearly as much chaos
Something that you come to discover eventually is that the best tools at your disposal in the original Prototype are, ironically enough, not so much the flashier powers themselves, but Mercer's hand-to-hand combat skills and the different slams and moves you can unlock outside the conventional morphing arms. It's the things you initially skip unlocking that end up being some of the most fun and useful, with Muscle Mass power pretty much being the very simple and yet very effective cherry on top. The Cannonball move, for instance, is pretty much the best way of dealing with helicopters.
Haven't expected such an upload. Prototype 1 and 2 are a great example of cut features and simplification of details that players haven't noticed or praised in the sequel. For example an ability to die in combat😅
They actually did on PS4 and XBO! But it was a very lazy 'remastering' effort, where they basically just imported the PC assets into the console port and called it a day (much like the BioShock Infinite and Dishonored remasters). On PC however, the original version is all we got - ashame there wasn't a big mod community for these there.
Another thing I liked about 2 compared to 1 is when Heller first gets specific powers (ie. The claws), they start off pretty lanky and just like arms, but as you get mutations and get them stronger, you both feel them getting stronger in the gameplay as well as see them become more beefy and dangerous. It reminds me of infamous where the more good you were, the brighter your suit looked and the clearer your skin was while going the infamous route made Cole paler, more sickly looking, and his suit colors were more muted. Idk, I just love when games include little physical changes to a character when they get stronger or make certain choices.
My favourite games of all time. I'd KILL for a GOOD Prototype 3. Edit: I'm going to install Prototype right now. Also funnily enough, most people hated P2 vs P1 for its horrible performance issues and dislike of Alex being the antagonist etc etc.
I'll forever sing [Prototype] praises, it's amazing, the best feeling and animated parkour system in a game to date! Shapeshifting, killing, consuming, and a military thriller story with character inspired by The Thing. Still hoping Activision stops being terrible and creates remakes of both games (but with the first game's movement/jumping system!) and makes a proper third game and more.
Like the other comment said this really gave me a moral crisis when I was a kid. I randomly killed a random person in game in horrible ways for fun, was expecting to cause some total chaos (like in GTA, the game will judge you by sending cops after you) and then realized the game has no punishment mechanism for this kind of behavior, rather the game was completely indifferent towards what you do to the civilian NPCs , and it made me question my 13 year old self. Yeah I was already familiar with GTA by then and I was used to messing around in GTA, but in GTA I knew I was the bad guy (at least not a good guy) so my chaotic actions were sort of justified. Not to mention if you do bad things the game will judge and punish, you get wanted stars and cops will come after you. But in Prototype I am supposed to be this tragic hero that’s going to bring down a evil corporation, while at the same time I can do all kinds of messed up things and never get punished by that. I used to just randomly grab a civilian (in early game when NYC was still functioning and all the NPCs are just minding their daily business), and throw him into the sky or into the water, nobody came after me, and there’s just this sense of indifference, and the game itself didn’t punish me for it. Looking back I think at that moment I really was tapping into the psychology of a real psychopath. Some people commit crimes because they know what they do is wrong, and they are doing so to cause harm and havoc intentionally. But for some, they are just totally indifferent no matter what horrible crimes have been committed, they did horrible sht, “just for the fun of it”
"Superpowers with moral options to how you utilise them" I think is a bounteous font. I know the phrase "appealing to the male fantasy" is largely used in a negative context...But i do think it's been largely relatable, since the dawn of superhuman powers in fiction for the idea of "If i had such powers, I would do this" (Rampages and Protecting loved ones from rampages/disaster being common options, but so are Playing an amazing piece of music, or winning at the Olympics despite not working towards these goals.) Wish Fulfilment is a purpose of art, not a flaw in it. The effects people internalise and act upon in their daily life is an entirely different conversation.
yessss I love Prototype, its a type of game we don't really get anymore the closest we got right now is Spiderman, but that barely qualifies, I want this and inFAMOUS
Anyone ever noticed how many games came out around this time depicting new york experiencing some "viral outbreak" and being locked down by the government? Infamous, Amazing Spiderman, Crysis 2.. theres more too. I say it was predictive programming.
I got this game for my 8th birthday the year it came out. (Shout out mom and dad) and they got me one of those gamer chairs that you could hook your Xbox cables into to have the audio come through the chair. Needless to say that was the peak of my life and I’ve just been trying to recapture that feeling again the past 20 years

@@MrExnihlowhat are you talking about? 🤣 This game is practically a comic book. I had seen movies and tv shows with more violence before I had even played this game. If you equate what games my parents let me play to how much they cared about me, you must be mental
the first game is still one of my favorite of all time. I remember picking it up off a bestbuy shelf - no reviews, no videos before - literally just looked cool. bought the special edition of the 2nd one - still have both. 2nd one did not hit for me though.
Prototype was a game I bought in Blockbuster when I was just coming out of a massive WoW addiction, telling myself "I'm going to beat a single player game again" and honestly, I had such a great time with it
Even today I remember Penny Arcade's comic about this game - "You can karate kick helicopters. What more do you need?!" Too bad we never got to the see the Pariah part of the story more.
I used to struggle with the Hunters and super soldiers too until recently I learned the counter to them is the maxed out muscle mass ability that makes all your basic attacks combos and throws 10x stronger . You can stagger them easily with flying kicks and punches . You deal way more damage to everything with the faster combos
I always found the disrespect that this game got from the press was undeserved. I loved the first one so much I went out of my way to preorder a overpriced version of Prototype 2 years later. I have in recent years return to these on Steam, and they hold up great. I sadly think this game was a victim of the Sony fanboyism that had long permeating the gaming space - as Sucker Punch's Infamous 1 and 2 both released around the time of each of these games.
Really appreciate you covering these two. I started with Prototype 2 and put so many hours into it. Tried going back to the 1st one years later, but couldn't stick with going backwards in what they developed in 2. It's too bad we'll never really get a 3rd game, but I still had so much fun with the games when I did. Keep up the great content, man!
I recently got both games. I played the first one a little when it came out but never went back to it for some reason. Playing them now in 2024 feels like experiencing a brand-new game they’re so fun! It feels like those classic PS2 games but updated. These days, though, most new games don’t have that same “upgrade” feel they used to. No one wants to take risks anymore because the higher-ups are all about money. That’s why indie games, in my opinion, are the best place to look unless you go for games where the devs genuinely care about their work.
Damn, even as a longtime _veteran_ of the first Prototype---seeing just how bloody, explosive and chaotic the game still is makes me feel like a grizzled mutant for having beaten it multiple times.
20:06 I’ll tell you something that’ll blow your mind: When I played on the 360 back in the day, I discovered that when you heard the missile coming at you while mid-air, you could pull back on the stick to do a backflip during the jump, and you’d dodge the missile. Felt so crisp when it happened, I used to jump around in front of rocket launcher guys just to do the backflip dodge.
The most op vechile in Prototype: Thermobaric tank The fastest way to heal in Prototype: stealth consume or ground slam when holding a human. The best devastator move for single target: Tendril palm. For AoE: Tendril barrage. The easiest difficulty is Normal yet actually still hard and annoying, moreover with harder difficulty. The most broken thing in Prototype 2: spike shield You are literally became invincible god when holding it.
I never really played the first game, but played the hell out of 2. Love that you played the Keyboard clip, i remember laughing pretty hard at that when i first played the game
One of the dumbest comments ever written on youtube. Even a toddler could prove you wrong with 10 seconds of scrolling video game releases. Please seek professional mental help for your delusions.
Finally someone's giving Prototype 2 the praise it deserves! One of the things I enjoyed in P2 is stealth Biobomb. Creating screaming portable black hole grenades in military bases never gets old and makes clearing them so much more fun, than in the first game
I took a break from playing games for about 2 years and it was Prototype that made me come back to gaming. Such a great opening sequence that hooks you with its game play. You get a taste of what's possible only to get sent back to zero and start getting your powers back.
If anyone is struggling in the game Buy the cannonball ability and destroy the water towers, 1h of farming and you’ll buy everything ability in the game Also, don’t face bigger enemies head on, hit and run is the best strat, since you can glide and run super fast
i used to imagine alot the beginning of prototype 3, James hearing Alex's voice for awhile and this continues until Alex decides to separate himself from Heller explaining he is the virus and cannot be consumed, just wanted to lie low for awhile then he takes out Heller and is the main character again.
Ah, Prototype. I remember playing both of these games on PC in the days when they released. And while I enjoyed both the games I also had a tons of issues with both games on PC back then. Like, in first Prototype I encountered a sound glitching problem in the game while also the volume was very low to the point that, even cranking up sound on the computer did not helped. But the game worked fine by itself so I finished it despite this problem. But when Prototype 2 released, I had a lot more problems with it than with the first game. Like the fact that PC version of the game was very poorly optimized, and you had to download fixes to make second game to even work properly. Then devs patched out PC version but it didn't helped, and after some time they got shut down. So to my knowledge, the game still remains broken on PC. Sure, it can be avoided if you have a modern computer, but back then to play Prototype 2 you had to pray to all the gods, install over 20 fixes and hope that it will work. That is what my experience with both of these games was. And I didn't played them for decades already. Well, at least this video refreshed my memory of what those games were.
All you need now to make them work are 2 mods (PrototypeFix and Prototype2Fix) on Nexus Mods. Appart from that, to get a smoother experience I'd highly recommend switching them to Vulkan and getting Special K to lock & stabilize their framerates, but they're not strictly necessary. There's easy to follow guides online. I hope this might get you back into them, bro.
The only problem I had with the first game was that I played it coming off the heels of Hulk: Ultimate Destruction and that soured the experience because Prototype plays almost exactly like that.
I know I'm super late on this but I finally got around to watching the FPS documentary which was fantastic and finally gave me a face to coincide with your voice. It was a treat watching you and everyone else involved gush over some vintage boom shoot. Anyone reading this who hasn't already, check it out! For a nearly 4.5 hour feature I found it engaging the whole way thru
its also notable of how in one of the interviews of the dev team of ananta (back when it was proyect mugen) said the main source of inspiration for their movement system was based in prototype 1 and 2 without the gliding but adding the hook hand into the "spiderman" element, pretty cool they remember games like these and sunset overdrive
I completed prototype 2 multiple times after unlocking New Game+ it was a fantastic game( for some reason prototype 1 used to run bad on my system while 2 would run perfectly)
After playing the Spider-Man games on the GameCube as kid this was right in that vein and it really turned out great I wanted to play the Infamous games also but they were only on PlayStation
Nice review, though I'm surprised to hear that you struggled this much with the hunters and bossfights. Even on the hardest difficulties they weren't that difficult, just gotta flow in with the chaos. Hunter encounters usually aren't far from extra weapons, and with the right movement and claw combos you don't even need the guns. The bossfights can be hectic, but all those enemies aren't a threat, they're food. Healthpacks, weapons, that type of deal.
I always felt Prototype is like if you took Venom from the Ultimate Spiderman game and swapped Hulk out from Ultimate Destruction and you'd get this game.
Although the second game is overall better, he's not lying, Prototype 1, in particular, is incredibly immersive as you progress and the infection spreads. I always loved going from clean areas to infected areas seemlessly. I would disguise myself as a soldier or a cop, and follow my group toward a hive attempting to keep my people I found him with alive through progressively worse neighborhoods. Peak childhood memories🤝

Sadly you missed out on showing the funniest moves of both games. The tendril sweep that cuts an entire squad of soldiers in half, traversing the city by launching yourself up in the air with a fist pump and glueing a soldier and an explosive together with the snot ability.

Where is the Bulletdive Drop? WHERE. IS. THE. FUCKING. BULLETDIVE. DROP?! Most badass jabroni beating-epic earth shaking powermove ever and you didn't mention it even once. Fucking RAW!
Funny thing: the PS4 version of P2 doesn't get Bulletdive for some unknown reason.
@@bickboose9364 It does but its behind some dlc I think, played it back in the day
Bulletdive with fully upgraded Muscle Mass kills everything and it's not even a special move.
@@RommelStormMuscle mass + hit & run throws = big pp dmg to last boss 😂
It was so cool that inFamous made their own version of it in Second Son.
Back when devs really emphasized the OPEN in Open-world.
Disagree, most games wouldn't make sense to have super-being movement capable of scaling buildings with ease obviously. Also we've gotten some very good ones with vertical traversal (the only difference in something like this) anyway in Dying Light 1 & 2, and of course there's the modern Spider-Man games
@cenciende9401 Doesn't have to be scaling buildings, simply making the world more accessible like having substantial indoors and stuff.
@@cenciende9401 This, I even vouch for modern Spider-Man as it has better side contents when compared to the Prototype franchise. The only thing that I remember of Prototype franchise is destroying the military base or the mutant nest. But what Prototype lack of is made up by their sandbox element, you can roam NYC freely without too much restriction and doing a rampage in between without getting overwhelmed by high-level enemies.
like in elden ring you have a horse with double jump and places where you can jump a hole fucking mountain at once.
Something that really stuck with me with Prototype 1 was the movement, played it at a friends place and instead of focusing on the Missions I'd just run and jump around.
It made every other open world game before and after feel like trash because you aren't running around at supercar speeds then jumping a quarter of a mile up then gliding half the length of the city.
The feeling of freedom makes it so much more fun to inhabit compared to an AC game where the world might be more filled out but it feels like a chore to get between objectives.
The movement in the first game was so much better than the second. You actually felt like you had serious weight behind your jumps and landings not to mention the parkour system being a lot better. That backflip while jumping forward was a chefs kiss…
I used to play after work, these games are therapeutic.
Literally the same thing. lol. Back in 2009 and 2011 I still worked retail, so this was a big stress reliever to instead of taking orders and listening to customers complain - just run around throwing tanks on people who give orders and civs who complain. lmao.
Must have been one hell of a job then.
@@Pixelsoep It was a decent job, the manager on the other hand was an insufferable energy vampire.
29:35 You know the voice actor had a ton of fun and freedom with this game. That part had me in stitches when I played it.
I remember Prototype was so popular that people in school used to lend their copies to their friends to play. Saw those said copies as well confiscated in the principal office too.
That was me literally i lent this guy who was supposed to be my friend a copy the idiot never returned it and disappeared. Till this day im still hunting for him ahaha.
And that's why it didn't sold well
@@CYB3R2Kit did tho, just not as well as infamous
My favorite thing to do in Prototype 1 was find a conflicted yellow zone, take the form of a soldier, find an M4 and join the military in fighting the mutants on the front lines. You could even get in gunner seats on vehicles or drive the tanks without breaking your disguise. It was insane that you could actually do this and help out as much you could without your powers.
So the real Prototype were the Hulks they made along the way.
Pick up car. Sprint down sidewalk covered in pedestrians. Pure catharsis.
This is one of those games that, as long as you get past technical problems, just feels extremely good to play on something like a Steam Deck or ROG Ally
Great suggestion 🙏🏻
22:53 if you plan to hijack, use the muscle arm. Most of the time it will remove the lid in just a second. Also the Muscle arm is severely underrated in the first game because it buffs a lot of the things you do if you don't want straight on combat, It makes Hijacking a breeze, throwing becomes viable because it buffs throwing damage and I do believe consuming is also faster due to a different animation but its been a while since I played the first game {I sailed the seven seas for it it back when I was a kid}
All correct. Muscle arm was insane in the first one and was a great hybrid style mutation that let you attack upclose or from afar with throwing. Also I just liked how it looked with the armor. Made you look like a cyborg or something.
Greatest VENOM/CARNAGE simulators EVER!!!
This is much better than childish and kid friendly Marvel stuff. Prototype was BRUTAL
Great point@@Navhkrin
@@Navhkrin hell ya lol, i remember just riding someone's face like a skateboard. game was awesome af
@20:53 Knuckle Shockwave does actually stun hunters on max charge, and their recovery time is long enough for another one to be charged. So fully charged knuckle shockwave can effectivelly stunlock hunters, and it's not taken away mid-game when Alex is de-powered, so spamming fully charged knuckle shockwave is the easiest way to defend Ragland during "The Stolen Body" mission. Knuckle Shockwave doesn't stunlock Leader Hunters, but regular hunters are a piece of cake, even on max difficulty. Also, their combo attacks can be avoided by dive-roll, even mid-attack. Sure, you'll take 2-3 hits, but the rest will miss if you diveroll out of the way, and recovery time after diveroll is instant, while Hunter has to finish it's combo once it started, meaning if you diveroll out of the way you can attack Hunter immediately while it's still in it's combo animation.
Personally I've had very limited success with the diveroll. Didn't know about KS though. Will remember that for my next playthrough.
Gotta remember that Knuckle Shockwave also deal damage to the glass in that "Stolen Body" Ragland mission.
The enhanced muscle mass is also useful for throwing stuff as it increases dmg. The difference between regular throw and throwing with the muscle mass is huge. I remember cheesing some of the fights on higher difficulty with that
The mission where you have to defend Ragland while he's examining the bodies behind the glass wall can be a CAKE walk if you charge and use the earth pound move (I forgot its real name, you have to press left and right mouse button simultaneously) which actually kills all the charging walkers unlike knuckle shockwave. I'm saying that because I suppose there were a plenty of people who had issues with this particular mission
@@akhdannaufaldy1693 It actually doesn't, the amount of damage is so low the glass wall can barely feel it
I’m still waiting for Prototype 3
Aren't we all 😂
I love that side mission where this one guy keeps saying "bruh" over the call to James heller in prototype 2
"If he says bruh one more time, im gonna rip his jaw open😡"
Heller
Out of all the games I always say “man I wish I can play for the first time again…” Prototype is usually one of the first 3 games I think of. It’s an experience that has been done before but never executed with nearly as much chaos
That first game really takes me back to my pirating days. Good times.
These two Prototype games, Company of Heroes 1, Battle Realms, Warcraft 3 Reign of Chaos and Frozen Throne. Ah, memories.
Its never to late to open a bottle of rum and sail the seas again 😉
Something that you come to discover eventually is that the best tools at your disposal in the original Prototype are, ironically enough, not so much the flashier powers themselves, but Mercer's hand-to-hand combat skills and the different slams and moves you can unlock outside the conventional morphing arms. It's the things you initially skip unlocking that end up being some of the most fun and useful, with Muscle Mass power pretty much being the very simple and yet very effective cherry on top.
The Cannonball move, for instance, is pretty much the best way of dealing with helicopters.
I like how you can tell just how much smoother Prototype 2 looks compared to the first.
True, plus graphics did get better as the years went by
Haven't expected such an upload.
Prototype 1 and 2 are a great example of cut features and simplification of details that players haven't noticed or praised in the sequel. For example an ability to die in combat😅
God, I miss Prototype. There really hasn't been anything since that fills that void.
They're available on PS4 and Xbox One, and those versions can be played on PS5 and Xbox Series X via backwards compatibility.
@@Wol1427 Oh, I know. And they're still worth playing. I just wish we had an actual sequel or spiritual successor.
The amount of hours I spent just roaming the city and causing as much chaos as I could! I wish they would remaster them!!!
They actually did on PS4 and XBO! But it was a very lazy 'remastering' effort, where they basically just imported the PC assets into the console port and called it a day (much like the BioShock Infinite and Dishonored remasters). On PC however, the original version is all we got - ashame there wasn't a big mod community for these there.
Another thing I liked about 2 compared to 1 is when Heller first gets specific powers (ie. The claws), they start off pretty lanky and just like arms, but as you get mutations and get them stronger, you both feel them getting stronger in the gameplay as well as see them become more beefy and dangerous. It reminds me of infamous where the more good you were, the brighter your suit looked and the clearer your skin was while going the infamous route made Cole paler, more sickly looking, and his suit colors were more muted.
Idk, I just love when games include little physical changes to a character when they get stronger or make certain choices.
My favourite games of all time. I'd KILL for a GOOD Prototype 3.
Edit: I'm going to install Prototype right now.
Also funnily enough, most people hated P2 vs P1 for its horrible performance issues and dislike of Alex being the antagonist etc etc.
Fr I play that day one
Be ready to fry your CPU for it.
The original Prototype killed mine a couple of months back.
I have no regrets. 😊
can anyone get the second game to work?
@@DylanJo123 There's probably some kind of mod that fixes it, check pcgamingwiki
@@DylanJo123 yes
I'll forever sing [Prototype] praises, it's amazing, the best feeling and animated parkour system in a game to date! Shapeshifting, killing, consuming, and a military thriller story with character inspired by The Thing. Still hoping Activision stops being terrible and creates remakes of both games (but with the first game's movement/jumping system!) and makes a proper third game and more.
God I loved these games. Especially Prototype 2 and all of those DLC packs that added new moves.
Like the other comment said this really gave me a moral crisis when I was a kid.
I randomly killed a random person in game in horrible ways for fun, was expecting to cause some total chaos (like in GTA, the game will judge you by sending cops after you) and then realized the game has no punishment mechanism for this kind of behavior, rather the game was completely indifferent towards what you do to the civilian NPCs , and it made me question my 13 year old self.
Yeah I was already familiar with GTA by then and I was used to messing around in GTA, but in GTA I knew I was the bad guy (at least not a good guy) so my chaotic actions were sort of justified. Not to mention if you do bad things the game will judge and punish, you get wanted stars and cops will come after you.
But in Prototype I am supposed to be this tragic hero that’s going to bring down a evil corporation, while at the same time I can do all kinds of messed up things and never get punished by that.
I used to just randomly grab a civilian (in early game when NYC was still functioning and all the NPCs are just minding their daily business), and throw him into the sky or into the water, nobody came after me, and there’s just this sense of indifference, and the game itself didn’t punish me for it.
Looking back I think at that moment I really was tapping into the psychology of a real psychopath.
Some people commit crimes because they know what they do is wrong, and they are doing so to cause harm and havoc intentionally.
But for some, they are just totally indifferent no matter what horrible crimes have been committed, they did horrible sht, “just for the fun of it”
We still need a sequel for these so badly.
"Superpowers with moral options to how you utilise them" I think is a bounteous font. I know the phrase "appealing to the male fantasy" is largely used in a negative context...But i do think it's been largely relatable, since the dawn of superhuman powers in fiction for the idea of "If i had such powers, I would do this" (Rampages and Protecting loved ones from rampages/disaster being common options, but so are Playing an amazing piece of music, or winning at the Olympics despite not working towards these goals.)
Wish Fulfilment is a purpose of art, not a flaw in it. The effects people internalise and act upon in their daily life is an entirely different conversation.
yessss I love Prototype, its a type of game we don't really get anymore the closest we got right now is Spiderman, but that barely qualifies, I want this and inFAMOUS
Spider-Man Web of Shadows is the closest we ever had to a game similar to Prototype
@@BuryTheLight-tdsweb of shadows came out first in 2008, i agree though it is pretty similar
Anyone ever noticed how many games came out around this time depicting new york experiencing some "viral outbreak" and being locked down by the government? Infamous, Amazing Spiderman, Crysis 2.. theres more too. I say it was predictive programming.
You forgot Spider-Man: Web of Shadows
I feel like it would really fit in the modern era, with the pandemic a few years ago.

Thank you🙏🏼
Thank you so much!
Prototype 2 is so stylised and excellent. Shame these haven't been ported to switch or been re released as hd remakes.
I got this game for my 8th birthday the year it came out. (Shout out mom and dad) and they got me one of those gamer chairs that you could hook your Xbox cables into to have the audio come through the chair. Needless to say that was the peak of my life and I’ve just been trying to recapture that feeling again the past 20 years

@@MrExnihlosays a lot about yourself eh
OK, Gman. I’ll download and play prototype again.
so sad we didn't got 3 one
the first game is still one of my favorite of all time. I remember picking it up off a bestbuy shelf - no reviews, no videos before - literally just looked cool.
bought the special edition of the 2nd one - still have both. 2nd one did not hit for me though.
Prototype was a game I bought in Blockbuster when I was just coming out of a massive WoW addiction, telling myself "I'm going to beat a single player game again" and honestly, I had such a great time with it
I loved the idea of making the protag of the previous game the antagonist of the sequel.
Even today I remember Penny Arcade's comic about this game - "You can karate kick helicopters. What more do you need?!" Too bad we never got to the see the Pariah part of the story more.
Prototype 2 had some cool little distance tech w James aerial fist. It has so much momentum the attack is basically a jump itself
Quick tip in 1, the muscle mass ability was a godsend against choppers trust me.
I used to struggle with the Hunters and super soldiers too until recently I learned the counter to them is the maxed out muscle mass ability that makes all your basic attacks combos and throws 10x stronger . You can stagger them easily with flying kicks and punches . You deal way more damage to everything with the faster combos
I always found the disrespect that this game got from the press was undeserved. I loved the first one so much I went out of my way to preorder a overpriced version of Prototype 2 years later. I have in recent years return to these on Steam, and they hold up great. I sadly think this game was a victim of the Sony fanboyism that had long permeating the gaming space - as Sucker Punch's Infamous 1 and 2 both released around the time of each of these games.
Really appreciate you covering these two. I started with Prototype 2 and put so many hours into it. Tried going back to the 1st one years later, but couldn't stick with going backwards in what they developed in 2. It's too bad we'll never really get a 3rd game, but I still had so much fun with the games when I did. Keep up the great content, man!
What makes it even worse is that we missed out on a infamous and prototype crossover game in 2016 because Sony wanted to make Concorde
Wtf I need a source for this

My dad playing prototype 1 and 2 "This is where the fun begins."
Me: "just remember you on hard mode so. Don't go chaotic while
Playing the game"
It's actually ridiculous that our only GOOD Superpowered Open World Games to this day are Prototype, Infamous, and like a thousand Spiderman Games...
I recently got both games. I played the first one a little when it came out but never went back to it for some reason. Playing them now in 2024 feels like experiencing a brand-new game they’re so fun! It feels like those classic PS2 games but updated.
These days, though, most new games don’t have that same “upgrade” feel they used to. No one wants to take risks anymore because the higher-ups are all about money. That’s why indie games, in my opinion, are the best place to look unless you go for games where the devs genuinely care about their work.
Shame that indie Games now are Just roguelike pixellated cozy crap and not huge Games like these
Damn, even as a longtime _veteran_ of the first Prototype---seeing just how bloody, explosive and chaotic the game still is makes me feel like a grizzled mutant for having beaten it multiple times.
20:06 I’ll tell you something that’ll blow your mind: When I played on the 360 back in the day, I discovered that when you heard the missile coming at you while mid-air, you could pull back on the stick to do a backflip during the jump, and you’d dodge the missile. Felt so crisp when it happened, I used to jump around in front of rocket launcher guys just to do the backflip dodge.
The most op vechile in Prototype: Thermobaric tank
The fastest way to heal in Prototype: stealth consume or ground slam when holding a human.
The best devastator move for single target: Tendril palm.
For AoE: Tendril barrage.
The easiest difficulty is Normal yet actually still hard and annoying, moreover with harder difficulty.
The most broken thing in Prototype 2: spike shield
You are literally became invincible god when holding it.
I never really played the first game, but played the hell out of 2.
Love that you played the Keyboard clip, i remember laughing pretty hard at that when i first played the game
Edgy games like this are a few and far between these days. Now everything has to be so cutesy and squeaky-clean.

I took a break from playing games for about 2 years and it was Prototype that made me come back to gaming. Such a great opening sequence that hooks you with its game play. You get a taste of what's possible only to get sent back to zero and start getting your powers back.
end-game was an absolut power fantasy!!
this series deserves a re-boot + a continuation of part 2!!
highly underrated franchise!
Prototype and Infamous are games that deserve a remake
If anyone is struggling in the game
Buy the cannonball ability and destroy the water towers, 1h of farming and you’ll buy everything ability in the game
Also, don’t face bigger enemies head on, hit and run is the best strat, since you can glide and run super fast
i used to imagine alot the beginning of prototype 3, James hearing Alex's voice for awhile and this continues until Alex decides to separate himself from Heller explaining he is the virus and cannot be consumed, just wanted to lie low for awhile then he takes out Heller and is the main character again.
Ah, Prototype. I remember playing both of these games on PC in the days when they released. And while I enjoyed both the games I also had a tons of issues with both games on PC back then. Like, in first Prototype I encountered a sound glitching problem in the game while also the volume was very low to the point that, even cranking up sound on the computer did not helped. But the game worked fine by itself so I finished it despite this problem. But when Prototype 2 released, I had a lot more problems with it than with the first game. Like the fact that PC version of the game was very poorly optimized, and you had to download fixes to make second game to even work properly. Then devs patched out PC version but it didn't helped, and after some time they got shut down. So to my knowledge, the game still remains broken on PC. Sure, it can be avoided if you have a modern computer, but back then to play Prototype 2 you had to pray to all the gods, install over 20 fixes and hope that it will work. That is what my experience with both of these games was. And I didn't played them for decades already. Well, at least this video refreshed my memory of what those games were.
All you need now to make them work are 2 mods (PrototypeFix and Prototype2Fix) on Nexus Mods.
Appart from that, to get a smoother experience I'd highly recommend switching them to Vulkan and getting Special K to lock & stabilize their framerates, but they're not strictly necessary. There's easy to follow guides online.
I hope this might get you back into them, bro.
I like how in Prototype 2 the designs of your melee weapons changes when you upgrade them
The only problem I had with the first game was that I played it coming off the heels of Hulk: Ultimate Destruction and that soured the experience because Prototype plays almost exactly like that.
Why is that bad?
@@Agencyagent34 Dude was tired of the repetition. I love Prototype, but I get it. He just needed to play other stuff for a while.
I know I'm super late on this but I finally got around to watching the FPS documentary which was fantastic and finally gave me a face to coincide with your voice. It was a treat watching you and everyone else involved gush over some vintage boom shoot. Anyone reading this who hasn't already, check it out! For a nearly 4.5 hour feature I found it engaging the whole way thru
They should never have stopped making these
its also notable of how in one of the interviews of the dev team of ananta (back when it was proyect mugen) said the main source of inspiration for their movement system was based in prototype 1 and 2 without the gliding but adding the hook hand into the "spiderman" element, pretty cool they remember games like these and sunset overdrive
I miss this franchise so goddamn much
Prob one of or thee best and def coolest running animations and transitions in traversal still to this day.
I completed prototype 2 multiple times after unlocking New Game+ it was a fantastic game( for some reason prototype 1 used to run bad on my system while 2 would run perfectly)
Theory: Prototype Was supposed to be a Venom game, but the license expired before they could finish the designs for the characters.
After playing the Spider-Man games on the GameCube as kid this was right in that vein and it really turned out great I wanted to play the Infamous games also but they were only on PlayStation
These games need a remaster so bad. Playing the second game on a modern machine is so rough.
The Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction 💥
Nice review, though I'm surprised to hear that you struggled this much with the hunters and bossfights. Even on the hardest difficulties they weren't that difficult, just gotta flow in with the chaos. Hunter encounters usually aren't far from extra weapons, and with the right movement and claw combos you don't even need the guns. The bossfights can be hectic, but all those enemies aren't a threat, they're food. Healthpacks, weapons, that type of deal.
I always felt Prototype is like if you took Venom from the Ultimate Spiderman game and swapped Hulk out from Ultimate Destruction and you'd get this game.
"We've got Infamous at home."
(Infamous at home):
First thing I did when I got my PS4 at the time was snag the two digital games before they got D-Listed
That's wild because I'm playing it on my PlayStation 5
Although the second game is overall better, he's not lying, Prototype 1, in particular, is incredibly immersive as you progress and the infection spreads. I always loved going from clean areas to infected areas seemlessly. I would disguise myself as a soldier or a cop, and follow my group toward a hive attempting to keep my people I found him with alive through progressively worse neighborhoods.
