Best Games of 2009: 15.Prototype (Sierra/Activision)

Prototype (Sierra/Activision)
What exactly is the Prototype? Is he just a down-on-his-luck guy who suddenly stumbles into superhuman powers? Perhaps he's a government project that gets out of hand and seeks revenge against his creators. Either way, Prototype plans to feature unending amounts of beat-em-up action and superhuman powers galore. Plus, we love those cool spike attacks.
Prototype (Xbox 360)
PROTOTYPE tells the story of Alex Mercer, a man haunted by his past, fighting a secret war in New York City. As the action spirals out of control, a conspiracy tied to his origins threatens the future of mankind itself. Mercer's amazing shapeshifting powers allow him to become an exact replica and steal the skills or powers of anyone who crosses his path.
