(one of the) Greatest single player games on PC!

Prototype



I think so...

I have this game for the 360 and it is bad ass.

For those that haven't played the game... elaborate on why this game is so bad ass?

Open world environment. You complete "missions" similar to Grand Theft Auto to go through the storyline of the game. In between missions you can go around the city and "consume" people...basically you rip into their bodies and consume them for energy and their memories. You are a guy named Alex Mercer who has been infected by a virus that mutates his body and gives him special powers. You can drive tanks and fly helicopters in the game. Your primary enemy throughout the game is "the military". Basically military guys that are from the government and/or Gentek (evil genetic corporation that created the virus). And of course, there are bad guys called "the infected" who are basically humans that were turned into zombies by the virus. There is also enemies called "hunters" which are heavily mutated creatures. Very fun game. I recommend it. Check out some more in-depth reviews at GameSpot or IGN for screenshots and videos to get a better idea.

The greatest part of the game is the powers that this virus gives you. As you progress throughout the game you can unleash these powers and mutations that you have. The majority of the powers come from basic movement like speed, agility, strength, and jump height. You can run up buildings, jump and glide from building to building. This is totally one of the greatest games I've ever played.

How do you drive with a hook hand? Do they have some kind of handicapped vehicles or shuttle service?

The "hook hand" is a mutation that you are able to control. It can be "enabled and disabled" at any time. You also have the ability to consume people and become them at any time while walking through the open world. No handicapped vehicles required.

So lets just say "theoretically", if you can control this "Hook Hand", You could make a this "Hook Hand" into a "Vagina" right?

well... if that's what you're into

Nice...

I'll have to check out Prototype, but the best one I have played so far has to be Bioshock.

Takes place in an underwater capitalist/free market utopia that was been disrupted/turned to shambles by a communist/socialist I guess you could say living in the society. Kinda has similar ideas as prototype with special powers. You have things called Plasmids that give you special ability, like a lighting bolt that you can shoot out of your hand to stun people, or you can set things on fire, or move things with telekinesis. These plasmids are powered by something that is called Eve, which is harvested in small zombie looking girls that wonder through the city being escorted by Big Daddies(guys in Armored diving suits) that you have to kill in order to harvet Adam. Adam is a sort of a currency, that can be used to buy things through out the city like upgraded Plasmids, more Eve etc. Im not going to go into the timeline of the game because it has a twist in it that I dont want to ruin for anyone that hasnt played it. I think it has a great story line if you actually read it, and they are supposed to be releasing a second one in early 2010 with multiplayer support.

Bioshock is an awesome game, although I've played through it so many times kinda meh now. You should talk to technologik, he hasn't beat it yet.

Geez it isn't a hard game...so go on and beat it already. But I do agree that BioShock is a great game, I got it for the PC and it was awesome game play and the story line was top notch. I can't wait until the second Bioshock comes out, plus I hope they get the budget to make the BioShock movie that they are talking about.

Underwater cities ain't cheap.

Agreed about the movie. It definitely has potential to be great, although im sure it can be screwed up quite easily though.
