Zero Punctuation: Prototype

[sln333]

Lol, I suppose that's a good way to decide which game gets the better score. I have to say prototype seems funner because of all the things you can do. Then again, I don't want to play as somebody who looks like emo Peter Pan.

Funny Review, Yahtzee.

 

[Mirroga]

Ok so I get it: both worth a rental. Thank you for being so clear, Yahtzee.

Now what would happen if you took all the best parts of inFamous and all the best parts of [PROTOTYPE] and combined them into one game? Hmmm...

That would be a sandbox game I would be willing to pay top dollar. I just hope it wouldn't exist in next-gen consoles.

Look at what I found on the Prototype fan art forums:

Even if the developers refuse to take up the challenge, there will always be fans, and fans will do CRAZY shit just to win Yahtzee's favor

Where are these forums of which you speak? I must visit. Please, guide me to them.

I personally love prototype and infamous both as they have replayability to them and great review yahtzee

I think it's a good thing and a bad thing, I think they could have done a few more things differently but eh, what are ya gonna do the game turned out really well and it's a bit easier to make missions for a man in a city verses a HULK in a city.

"Hey steve you look a little different, did you get a hair cut?"
Hulk: BRARHHHGGHHH!!!! *wearing steves shirt*

I am glad I wasn't drinking something or the screen would be wearing it. That was funny, thank you.

No problem haha. I got a chuckle out of that

The only thing that would be funnier than the bra joke would be if one of them actually did it. xD

Funny as always but Prototype itself wasn't really covered much at all. Give us two more minutes per video so you can fit more stuff in.

Golden as always.


...the freekin wrist blood flying thing creeps me out on prototype......thats just so wrong...so emo...

 

[Destroyer5609]

no problem mstrswrd

I like how he obviously tried to make it as equal as possible to prevent flame wars.

Um, I never really saw it as blood... I saw it as the same artistic interpretation of genetic discord as a body is being realigned that accompanied any charge move of his. I also never saw anything come out of his wrists while gliding... I saw it around his feet if I was charging for a jump but never his wrists.

So I don't know what drugs Yahtzee was on as it wasn't in the game... I am still perplexed as I never saw it after the fifty or so hours of playing and still don't see the wrist thing. Perhaps a new eye exam is in order. :/

Nice challenge you set the game dev's there =D

 

[DeathWyrmNexus]

Okay, I went back to check to see what kind of cranial intrusion I might have had if I missed a detail after fifty hours. So, I fired up the game and jumped about like a suicidal Spring Heeled Jack. I saw the red lines on the wrists and ankles... However, I also saw them around the armpits, hips, shoulders... All dependent on velocity.

They're action lines kids. His power is manifested in red and black... There is black in those action lines with red as the predominant color. Any reference to bleeding is in your own mind as if you pay attention, the blood, which I have spilled way too much of in the game is actually a brighter color than what comes from the action lines. When you see him bleed in the game, it is the same color as the blood shed by everybody.

Conclusion: He isn't bleeding when flying...

I like Prototype better. And one think that made the story confusing, Yahtzee, is that you probably didn't do the Web of Intrigue, which reveals the storyline. And when you consumed people(The mains one anyways), did you watch the cutscenes?
And as for the Bra thing.Fan art on the Activision forums drawn by Kaxen

I think the thread was posted earlier

well when he does the gliding thing.. something comes out of his hands or sumtin. Regardless.. thats creepy.

I already addressed this a couple posts above yours. If you notice, anytime you do anything fast, that red bit of action line is somewhere, either on shoulders, hips, legs, or arms. So I don't know what to tell you since you see it with any other kind of velocity, so all I can assume is that they are action lines, a bit of artistic blur. In the Hulk, his action lines were flashes of green.

Hmmm Yahtzee's head to head review was similar to mine, albeit with less grief (bloody Celebrity Bias).

Others have said it in the thread, but the "Emo Peter Pan" crack was his best one yet, especially with that graphic and thought bubble.
