Video: Alex Mercer is an angry young man in Prototype's opening cinematic. And he's not afraid to show it.
2009 could be turning into the year of the open world action game, with some stellar titles coming up allowing players free reign to screw shit up in vast open cities. We've got inFamous on PS3 (which we've played a bit of, and it's good), Assassin's Creed 2 at the end of the year and even Red Dead Redemption is looking pretty tight. But it's Radical's Prototype that's really been getting us excited - and we've got the opening cinematic to share with you.
Prototype follows the bloody and gib-tastic adventures of Alex Mercer, a young man with a nasty new set of superpowers - only he has no idea who's done this to him, or what it has to do with the infection spreading through New York.
But he's very keen to find out, as the cinematic shows. Oh, and if the inside of people being visible from the outside is at all not your thing, you may not want to click the video below...
Nasty - but still fun looking! Prototype hits shelves early next month, and will be available on all major platforms.
