Another debut trailer aired during the 2010 VGAs was one for Activision's upcoming sequel, Prototype 2.
The original game Prototype, released in 2009, followed anti-hero Alex Mercer in action-packed open-world gameplay that sold over 2 million units on Xbox 360, Playstation 3, and PC. In addition to the impressive sales numbers, the game was also decently received by critics, with a metascore of 79.
The trailer exposes a wrench thrown in the gears of the original plotline, shifting to a new playable protagonist, Sgt. James Heller, as he sets out to destroy the originally playable Alex Mercer from the first title.
Throwing multiple cars from mid-air. Good times.
The press release announcing Prototype 2 also reveals that the first game in the series, Prototype, is now available as a $29.99 digital download purchase on the Xbox LIVE Marketplace for Xbox 360. There is also a promotion running to help grow the number of Facebook "Likes" for the game: "Fans of the game at www.facebook.com/prototype will automatically be entered into a random drawing to win a token to download the game for FREE."
Prototype 2 is currently slated for release in 2012. For more information on the original release, check out NoobFeed's review of Prototype.
