I like how this isn't just the "Prototype thread" but the Prototype THREAD. :)
I checked it out! It's very similar to Infamous but on a larger scale in terms destruction and mobility, though it's much easier (specially since there's no aiming involved). It plays a lot like Spider-man: Web of Shadows (or any other Spider-man game for that matter). For the most part it really feels like it was being developed as a Spider-man/Venom game but they didn't get the licence so they repainted it.
Wait, is this by the same developers that did Spider-Man: Web of Shadows?No, it's Radical Entertainment. They're the guys behind the Scarface game. Here's a list (http://www.gamespot.com/games.html?type=company&mode=8747) of the games they've developed.

I considered getting it, but I never even finished inFamous.

Prototype Sound Fix – Summary
Make sure you have about 3 GB worth of open space for all the upcoming file extractions.
1. Open the file [ ..\Prototype\00audio.rcf ] via ScarfaceExplorer.
2. Extract files into the [ ..\Prototype\Audio ] folder.
3. Rename ALL "ambiance" and "ambient" files that came from 00audio.rcf.
i.e. Rename [ ..\Prototype\Audio\audio\ambience.p3d ] into something else (i.e. ambience_old.p3d).
4. Rename the audio RCF file you did all the extracting from.
i.e. Rename [ ..\Prototype\00audio.rcf ] into something else (such as 00audio_old.rcf).
5. Select all files and folders (Ctrl – A) in the [ ..\Prototype\Audio\audio ] folder.
6. Cut all files and folders (Ctrl – X) in the [ ..\Prototype\Audio\audio ] folder.
7. Paste them in the [ ..\Prototype\Audio ] folder.
8. Do the same above steps 1-7 above also for "01audio.rcf" via ScarfaceExplorer as well.
9. Start Prototype and play the game without any sound issues.
You know, that could have been what was happening to me. I never had any cutting out sound (I don't think) or anything like that, but the game would freeze and I couldn't get past one cut scene (which was like 10 min. into a mission so I only tried twice).Yep, sounds like you got the same issue -- in-game sound is perfect, but the FMV's play TOO slow w/ the sound.
Um, about that. I totally uninstalled the game and then didn't backup the saves when I reformatted. But I will bookmark this because I'd like to try to beat it someday soon.

I'm glad it ain't tagged w/ a license on it. I like it as it is, as Prototype.
Overall it's quite fun, a lot of mass destruction, not quite as destructible as Red Faction: Guerilla but still amusing.I haven't played RFG yet, but I don't think I have yet played anything as destructive as Prototype. I'm sure that'll change when I do play RFG, but this Prototype -- now that I got by all the technical stupidities -- is a blast.
