Chatting with Radical Entertainment's Executive Producer Tim Bennison, Team Xbox learned some semi-depressing news about a once promised feature that was supposed to be included in Prototype, but has since been cut from the game. That feature being any and all multiplayer component. Talking about Prototype's multiplayer, Bennison told Team Xbox that "while it's a great concept and gameplay bonus, our conclusion is that we won't be able to pull it off with the same level of quality and polish that we're aiming for with the original single player story. " Simply put, they didn't want to tack on multiplayer knowing that it would end up feeling gimped. And really, we can't hate them for that. Just give us a solid single player game, impress us and we'll call it even. There's always a sequel.

The X3F Army has spoken and they've come to the conclusion that they don't know what to think about Prototype. On one hand the game is a perfect blend of realistic brutality coupled with Crackdown style gameplay (Or, Hulk: Ultimate Destruction which was made by the same team). On the other hand Prototype updates have been so mysterious and spread so thinly the game continuously falls off and on our radar. Sierra sent 8 new screenshots of the Radical Entertainment title that, much like previous shots, showcase the brutality and options gamers will have in combat. Looking more polished, and less grainy than previous screens, the game at least perks us up when we catch a new glimpse of it. With a solid team and (mostly) stellar back catalog behind the dev team, Prototype could be a sleeper hit when it releases later this year.

and perhaps they could sell multiplayer separately -.-

But that's just a guess.

Does this apply to all the platforms it will be released?

All systems.. including PC, PS3 and XBOX 360

Wow, and my interest in this game declines, not that there was much to begin with. Think they'll have any DLC for it?

Good to see they went Bioshock route. Either make a good single player game OR multiplayer game. No half-baked

Thank you... I was going to mod alert it ;)

Some how "possessing bodies" remind me of Messiah.

Video: All you wanted to know about Prototype

Gametrailers posted a four part series detailing all aspects of Radical Entertainment's Prototype and even included some new gameplay footage to boot. The first of four videos (embedded above) showcases some of main character Alex's abilities, how he uses his shape shifting abilities to kill and what destruction can be dished out. In the other three Prototype videos (viewable after the break) you'll hear the dev team talk about the game's Artistic Vision, Environmental Interaction and the Story of Alex Mercer. It's a lot of Prototype info, a lot to take in and we think you'll enjoy what the team has done with the game. Still, we wish they would have kept co-op ...

Sweeet. I am looking forward to this game.

The only major flaw I saw is ... pedestrians do not act surprise or shock to see someone running fast as car or bouncing all over the place. Taxi drivers didn't stick their head out curse at him.

Im bringing this thread back. I heard the game was good. How are the system req on PC...hopefully its not GTAIVesque
