I like, sure it looks like it needs some work – if it still looks exactly the same(the lack of enemy visual variety stood out to me also) when it comes out I’ll be a touch disappointed, but what they’ve shown is enough to increase my interest.

It is a bit console-ish, but as a ‘pure’ pc gamer(don’t own a single console) it’s not like I’m overrun with console style action games(for the person who mentioned GTA4, I doubt that will be even out on PC before this).

Is it even possible to get any more violent?

After Ultimate Destruction, I already knew I’d be getting this day one but… Corpse surfing? Crushing heads into bodies? Punching through zombies? I need this game yesterday!

(and really, just don’t use the guns if you don’t want to)

Whoa, impressive. I was SO not interested when I first heard about this game, but the video has punk’d my judgement. Jumping around looks like mad fun, especially whilst dodging military folk, militia, AND zombies. Yusss.

Yeah, I don’t understand what all the hate is about. Combo-based fighting is a console thing now? Why? It looks like a lot of fun to me. Granted, the gunplay doesn’t look completely right … I didn’t get a sense of what the character was aiming at, but regardless, it looks like a blast.

Oh man.. I fear for Prototype, especially with GTA4 coming out tomorrow. If GTA4 is as amazing as all the reviews say it is (check out Metacritic.com, 99/100), and if the city feels truly alive, then Prototype’s world is going to be a disappointment.

Please don’t suck Prototype!!!

i like it, seems like a strange mix of a horror movie, crackdown, and that psn bowling game.

I liked Hulk right up until the buzzing, locked-on, ultra-maneuverable helicopters made an appearance. Can’t reach them, they never run out of ammo, they never miss. I guess they’re trying to fix this here with the ability to disguise yourself and ditch them, but seems like the core is the same.

I guess I prefer my combat a bit more personal than having 20+ machine guns hitting me constantly. I hope they show that because it’s the most action on the screen, and not because 99% of the game is like that.

I think this is moving to my bargain bin list.

RUN AND GUN

Wait… a game where you can both run AND gun at the same time?! What is this madness?

Yes, because PC gaming is a vast expanse of unicorns, rainbows and love for all humanity. Nope, no killing and rage-venting here.

(Wait, Postal was PC only? Hrm. Reassessment required!)

Lol “kanedaaaa!” indeed.

For god sake console mish-mash, combos, many “cool” satisfactory ways to kill people to “snap” your repressed modern-life rage ?

And they blame me for hating consoles and all they stand for.
