Prototype, better known as Crackdown + The Matrix + Superman seems to have a busted website that confronts you with an age gate, and then gives up all of its secrets like the wimpy kid during recess. It appears that these are images and videos they are assembling for a presentation at CES in January, but Happy Holidaze! You get it a few weeks early.
Check out the new images from the game in the gallery below, and there are four new videos waiting for you after the break. Just hurry and do it now before someone comes to their senses and flips the switch. Either this is a brilliant marketing ploy, or someone's asleep at the keyboard.

I'm kinda missing the Crackdown comparison though... Don't get me wrong, I loved CD but it was like jump, shoot, jump, throw stuff, repeat till blood lust is quenched. This look like you can do WAY more stuff!!!

I agree that too much about games is given away before they come out. A game should have enough cool shit to show off a little bit and leave the rest to when you actually play through it.
I'd be wow'ed by this game a bit more if I didn't have the unquenchable desire to watch game trailers..

Fake leak.
Only that folder happens to have the wrong privileges set? ;)
The one folder that is "open to the public" just so happens to contain handy media files? ;)
The truly telling tale is that the folder contents is too neat - no random files.

It's weird because i just discovered this game like half an hour ago. And i'm loving it.
BTW, do you have to confirm the email every time you post? Or does it stops?

For some reason, it reminds me of Hancock, except that now he can eat people up to steal their appearance.

Your right. It looks like he gave a flying "The Peoples Elbow" to a tank.

Hmmm...
The body just disappears when you do that stealth thing? People walking by don't notice?
And am I gonna be doing those same moves to the tanks over and over?

Well, looks like people noticed. Woman was running from him at least, though it's realistic that the military unit wouldn't have known for at least a few minutes.

Just awesome.
Oh and easily a marketing ploy, and also I need to get Crackdown.

Yes, this is by the Hulk: UD team, and it looks like the gameplay is going to be much the same but with one big difference:
They're not being held back by a comic lisence this time. You can pretty much wreck everything and kill everyone. Oh, and much cooler powers that go beyond being large and green.
The superpowers look great, and it looks like you reach Hulk-like levels of toughness and strength later on. They're already showed that you can crush tanks with an elbow drop.
This is basically the sequel to Hulk: UD that we never officially got.

Y'know, I'm currently playing Crackdown for the first time, and I feel like the developers looked to Hulk Ultimate Destruction for gameplay inspiration. Is it any coincidence that Hulk UD was made by the same people who are making Prototype?

Good, I was afraid development was cut or something after it went so long without releasing any information.
