Prototype 2

Prototype 2, like its predecessor Prototype is an open world game. The character you play is infected with the Mercer virus and gains different abilities and agility like the first one. Most of this is the same. I thought the combat and controls were pretty good and it was always fun to run around and destroy things. The main issue I had with this game was the poor story and the poor dialogue on most of the characters. The first game featured a story where you didn't know what was really happening and you slowly pieced it together by absorbing the memories of various people involved in what was happening. The second game had some of this but the story did not have much mystery to it.

In addition to the main story line there are a bunch of side things to do. There are 3 main types (collecting blackboxes, closing lairs, and killing ops teams). When you complete all of a single one of those in zone you are rewarded with a special mutation. They also have bonus missions called black ops missions which is similar to the web of intrigue from the first game. Completing a set of these will also grant some mutations. Also the different challenges are back in the form of Radnet.

Overall the gameplay was fun and similar to the first game but the story and dialogue were weaker than the first game.
