I definitely shouldn't have played this game at my age considering how brutal it is. But Prototype fulfilled that dream of running/flying around a open city that has only been matched by the modern Spider-Man games. Except in Prototype you don't play a hero.

my mate recommended this game to me for so many years because he and i both like that infamous/sunset overdrive, open world super power games. alas i never got to play it because i never owned a 7th gen console. There is a pc port on steam. but its poorly ported and broken . it just crashes at the menu screen. love to see this title on gog because sometimes when you buy an older game on other platforms its usually broken and unplayable, however when i buy on gog, it just works
This game has one of the worst PC ports ever. However, it's awesome and it's a shame the PC port is so awful. The powers, the Bourne-meets-Venom story, and the open world...I adore it. I've loved this game since I was in college (and it helped me through a rough period) and it deserves to be played.

Sadly a game completely unavailable in my region (Germany), with the sequel only existing as a censored release, and maybe we could get either to be available or uncensored here.

Its because of this game I found jacksepticeye and then opened my eyes to the world of yt gaming and made me fall in love in games it's because of this game I am doing a game design course right now and most importantly they don't make games like this no more man this was a special game.
One of the best openworld games of 360/ps3 Era, this games has one of the best open worlds/freeworld ever made, you are a god in this game. Alex Mercer is one of the coolest characters of games ever made. ACTIVISION completetly forget about this games and destroys the legacy of prototype and of Radical Entertainment. This games is on STEAM, but it's a bad port, we can fix it with mods, but it should runs well in moderns pc. if you can bring back this game and make it runs well, you guys wins the heaven.
The game that redefined my childhood, gave me a good lesson of science 🧬, cool military open world action, superhuman powers and much edgy. Prototype walked so Spider-Man and Batman could run
It's been a while since I've played this on the 360 but this title's an awesome one and I want to replay it again, the story's great and the gameplay was really fun since you fly, scale buildings and throw cars while destroying tanks lol, this title along with the second ones makes for a great franchise and deserves a place on GOG in my opinion. I hope there is a "Prototype III" at some point because that would crazy awesome.
Ever since I was a teen I liked it, and I appreciate it even more as an adult. Unique story and gameplay experience that deserves much more and better than what it got.
I've played this game when i was 8..i was an innocent silly girl and literally understood nothing about the game but nonetheless played it for hours!!..and i still do..my childhood game and my future game..hope we actually get Prototype 3 one day..stay hopeful people,we might actually get it one day
Those games also need your vote!

Tenchu 2: Birth of the Stealth Assassins
Tenchu 2: Birth of the Stealth AssassinsTenchu 2 is a prequel to Tenchu, telling a tale of events prior to those of the previous game. Once again, you can play as Ayame or Rikimaru, two faithful and honorable ninja whose lord is a gentle man in an age of warfare. With your training nearly complete, you find yourself caught up in aiding your lord against a civil war in his own domain. All is not what it seems, however, and you'll soon realize that your greatest threat has been forged much like you. Much like its predecessor, Tenchu 2 is a 3D third person stealth action game. You are not only rewarded for stealth, but also for efficiency of movement this time. This extra feature increases the difficulty of achieving the better items, as you not only have to be quiet, but be direct and near perfect in your steps.
