Prototype 2

“Prototype 2” is an open world action-adventure game and was developed by Radical Entertainment as the sequel to 2009's “Prototype”. The game features a new protagonist, James Heller, who has been infected by a secondary outbreak of the monstrously dangerous virus from the original “Prototype”. “Prototype 2” is a wildly entertaining game with an open world to explore and frankly blow to high heaven with the amazing powers that the shape shifting Heller has in store for every player to enjoy. If you find the time to pull yourself away from blowing things up there is also a main storyline to be followed where you still have the ability to have a fun time blowing things up and unraveling the story of James Heller. As you progress through the game you gain experience by completing storyline missions along with side missions which players has the option of completing if they want, all this allowing you to upgrade Heller’s explosive and incredible powers. People who have played the original game will be greeted by some old faces while people that found “Prototype 2” can enjoy this open world of fun and chaos but may ultimately be lost in by the main story.
Prototype 2 has incredible graphics for all to enjoy but may not have the lasting appeal that gamers are looking for but people will find it is fun to run around the city, tear things apart and level up Heller and creating more chaos than the TV screen can handle.

Good:
-A great wide city to explore and destroy
-The new powers and leveling system will make you feel like a God

Bad:
-Gamers may be lost if they haven’t played the original
-Not much of a lasting appeal
