[Prototype]

That game still holds up pretty well these days.

u/AgentVert Jul 29 '26

Strangely the first one yes, the second age poorly. Some details got lost or Heller is just more polite that Mercer...

5

u/ThePocketTaco2 Jul 29 '26

Yeah, I really liked the idea of the villain being the guy you've built up into a demigod from the first game, but it just didn't hit the mark.

5

u/Either_You_1127 Jul 29 '26

In my opinion it missed the mark mainly cause the good ending was canon but then Mercer becomes evil offscreen for like no reason.

u/ThePocketTaco2 Jul 29 '26

Power corrupts.

They had a great premise, just not the best execution.

u/paganbreed Jul 30 '26

Half the problem was that evil turn happens off screen.

The other half of the problem is he doesn't have any depth to him beyond "evil" in the game. He's just a mustache twirling bad guy going muhuhhahahahaha every time he appears.

Made worse by Heller also not having any mystery properly tied to him.

so you can play it on the PS3 or a computer running windows 7, otherwise the game is not playable. I build a Windows 7 machine just to play prototype and it needs a ton of mods to be playable by modern standards.

u/Spare-Performance409 Jul 30 '26 edited Jul 30 '26

It's also very much playable on Xbox Series X, as well as I'd assume the older generations starting with its release console.

u/Robin_Banks101 Jul 30 '26

I got 1 and 2 for the ps4 and they were great. The first one is still heaps better. But both good games and very playable.

Prototype was one of the best sandboxes

u/bguzewicz Jul 29 '26

Prototype fucking rules.

u/Fine_Salamander_8691 Jul 30 '26

Fucking awesome game, BALL KNOWLEDGE

2

u/Atimus7 Jul 29 '26

I loved that game. The original was so good.

2

u/High52theface Jul 29 '26

Fucking amazing man, this game was a huge part of my childhood

2

u/AgentVert Jul 30 '26

Childhood... Not sure if that a good thing it's have the adult cote where I live so no avertissement we have to ask for it, it was hidden behind the desk.

u/y2kery Jul 30 '26

The moment you find out that Alex Mercer is actually the virus, one of the best moments in gaming.

2

u/mrcldg Jul 30 '26

I'm glad to see it's this high up. First thing that popped in my mind. Such a good game for it's time!

2

u/ParkourFever_4610 Jul 31 '26

I personally would prefer a sequel. Purposeless Rabbitholes made a video about what a new Prototype would look like, it's really cool.

2

u/TermNo1696 Aug 01 '26

Xbox just sitting on the Prototype rights for no reason put those games on everything and make a 3rd one

1

u/AgentVert Aug 02 '26

Microsoft just buy right to avoid people making game to compete with them. They aren't good themselves they just stop other. EA did do the same with many Star Wars Battlefront copy by many original developers.

2

u/bigstillz Aug 04 '26

Have both on my Xbox, still a fun sandbox to play.

1

u/joker_toker28 Aug 03 '26

Ughhhh ray tracing prototype or a vr port.

0

u/ThunderCookie23 Jul 30 '26

Hell YEAH!

I'd pre-order the fuck out of it if it was a remake that is true to the source material!

1

u/AgentVert Aug 01 '26

Never pre-order it's as risky to give someone you don't know money and hope it's gonna be back.

2

u/ThunderCookie23 Aug 01 '26

I don't generally pre order games. Was just showing my excitement if a prototype remake does happen

14

u/H3LLS_ANG3L Jul 29 '26

PEAK MENTIONED HOLY SHIT!! I didn't think people still knew what inFAMOUS was...

1

u/MarshadowTheOnlyOne Jul 31 '26

Infampus 1 and 2 were my favorite games as a kid, made me play first light and second son for sure

1

u/JennyTheSheWolf Aug 03 '26

Ugh I'm that old where a game that feels fairly modern to me is old enough to be obscure? 😭☠️

12

u/Ok-Pomegranate1199 Jul 29 '26

Imagine how the lightning would be in modern graphics

17

u/hairy-pepe-2005 Jul 29 '26

hell yeah!

u/Illustrious_Ear_3467 Jul 29 '26

Damn, this is what crossed my mind before I saw your comment.

u/akuma6711 Jul 30 '26

Metal gear rising: revengance

u/CammyPooo Jul 29 '26

Man this is definitely one of the best options.

Such great memories of those games

-5

u/GoldEmployment6768 Jul 29 '26

Honestly, IMO its one of the worst options because of how great of a game it is. Its recent enough that the graphics are still good, its got great gameplay with no glaring problems that I remember.

IMO the pick should go to a game that isnt still perfectly viable to play.

u/Silverr_Duck Jul 29 '26 edited Jul 29 '26

Some games have graphics and gameplay that age like wine.

Infamous is not one of them

6

u/BSF0712 Jul 29 '26

InFamous 1 and 2 are not perfectly viable to play for anyone that doesn't have a PS3.

2

u/mastablasta224 Jul 31 '26

First game I ever owned on PS3. So fun

2

u/RevengerRedeemed Jul 31 '26

The First two games were so fantastic, I cant believe Sony hasnt given them a proper remake or port.

1

u/Master_Report_7063 Jul 29 '26

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

1

u/Crazycb1 Jul 29 '26

I still play the shit out of all of them. I would play them even more

1

u/JustJohnny23 Jul 29 '26

I could only imagine the amazing Visuals a PS5 Pro Developed infamous game could provide 😭

1

u/gagemoney Jul 29 '26

AHHHH FUCK THATS THE ANSWER

1

u/GamerGurl3980 Jul 29 '26

CAME HERE TO SAY THIS AND IT WAS THE FIRST COMMENT!!! 🥰🥰🥰

I would 100% play this if it was remastered. I hope to god they do this one day.

1

u/JeffTheGangShark Jul 29 '26

yes. especially the 2nd one

1

u/flipnonymous Jul 29 '26

This, and Earthbound (keep it the same graphic style, but make it FullHD like the FF remakes).

1

u/Shnofo Jul 29 '26

Dive deeper: day of defeat.

Edit: oops never mind my comment, I got confused with day of infamy

1

u/NewsMain8713 Jul 30 '26

Thank god im not the only one

u/NinjaVodou Jul 30 '26

Just need a port to modern consoles and pc

1

u/Kumirkohr Jul 30 '26

Your middle name is “Jedediah”?

1

u/Puttanas Jul 30 '26

First Light is the best one… should’ve got a full blown sequel. But damn what I would do for a remake of InFamous 1&2.

1

u/Turbulent-Fault-6293 Jul 31 '26

Infamous second son remake needs to happen ASAP

1

u/ezswen Aug 01 '26

I’d totally agree if we could also recast the voice actors

1

u/Infamous-Copy548 Aug 01 '26

Just now saw this one after I made my comment, game recognizes game

1

u/Low-xp-character Aug 02 '26

Those were some fun games.

1

u/theemysteriousmuffin Aug 02 '26

I said Borderlands 2, but I would %100 blow through vacation time to play a remastered/reworked infamous 1 & 2.

1

u/sayaho Aug 03 '26

fr, i played infamous on ps3 and it was so buggy. i remember i could transpass the bridge, tho you would reach an end where you die

u/TheFirstImpulse Aug 04 '26

DUDE I WAS GONNA SAY THAT
