Prototype opening cinematic dazzles

Prototype, an open-world action game we were initially very skeptical about, has been looking very slick as it nears its launch date. To build up hype for the game's release, Radical Entertainment has released the game's opening cinematic. Yes, it's CG; no, we don't care. It's a stylish three-minute thrill ride in the shifting shoes of the game's protagonist, Alex Mercer. If you're faint of heart, stop here, because this one is pretty graphic in nature. Take a look.

Prototype will be available in early June for the PS3, Xbox 360, and PC.

     This Infamous/Prototype grudge match is turning into quite the predicament indeed.

     Wounder why they bother making CG.. unless they are going to use it as cut scenes ingame.. otherwise imho it is a waste of time.

    I'm likin' this game for what it's trying to be, which is in the vein of that Hulk game that came out on Xbox... And is it just me, or does Alex's voice in the first part not match the way he looks at all?...but when he shapeshifted, he sound exactly how he should sound regularly lol...

     is it just me or is this game being completely overshadowed by infamous? i feel like its just going to bomb because inamous will steal the wind from its sails. if it does that sucks because imo this game looks better and it just wont get as much attention as infamous is doing. people having to choose form two openworld games will go and pick infamous (for the ps3 at leasr). i guess that xbox will have "its" infamous. trailer looks hot though

    After MGS4's realtime Godness, CGI's don't impress me anymore. Gimme realtime or be gone !

    Still, fairly well done though nothing i haven't seen since the era of PSX.
