Prototype 2 is only a few weeks, and as a reminder Activision has a TV commercial for us that contains no gameplay whatsoever.

It does, however, feature Johnny Cash singing a Nine Inch Nails song, and a very angry man out for vengeance against the protagonist of the original Prototype. Check it out below.

Prototype 2 releases April 24 for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.

He kinda resembles Goldburg...May be not.

Get ready for another disappointment, if there was any hype at all. Also, that was a ton of hate in that article. Why would the editors not make fun of Skyrim or ME3 for having cinematic/live-action trailers, yet they make fun of prototype?

Take an aspirin! or eat a snickers, so satisfying it can cure any signs of depression!

FINALLY!!!! some diversity in games.

EDIT: I meant: Finally some well to do African American fellow in gaming.

EDIT: and they made this game so gay, i mean seriously who is the Moefoe who thought of "Bio-Bomb Butt Kicker Move"? BTW i am reading this from my email one of them lousy Gamestop deals.

So you don't like the commercial? Who said commercials have to show game footage? Halo 3 didn't, skyrim didn't, MW3 didn't(that I remember). What's up with that Kyle?
by Specter Friday, April 13, 2012 at 08:17 PM

I saw this on youtube as a commercial and on the screen it said it was for a prototype 2 movie.
by Neon Pixels Friday, April 13, 2012 at 08:20 PM

That was an awesome trailer. I hope the second game is better than the first, though.

SO MUCH could have been done to make this trailer cool but the story is cheesy and overused. How many times are we gonna go with the dead wife and kid angle? This is one the greatest songs ever made and they botched it, could have been better than the Dead Island trailer if done right.
by lmumford 2011 Friday, April 13, 2012 at 08:47 PM

I enjoyed Prototype ! and have ordered 2. I like they mayhem without being too deep of a story. The trailer I was impressed with. It displayed the mood and it is not a pretty story..plus Mercer was a ***!!!! Go get em Heller!!!! Besides...the butt kicker!!!! I will be kicking fannies all over the place!!!!!
by XxMatthewxX Friday, April 13, 2012 at 08:48 PM

Why Mercer looks bald and soo damn old?
by Agile1 Friday, April 13, 2012 at 08:55 PM

Weak sauce, Activision.

by Vaas Friday, April 13, 2012 at 09:07 PM

this game will probably suck
by God Of Irony Friday, April 13, 2012 at 09:21 PM

by RedTail F22 Friday, April 13, 2012 at 09:45 PM

Finally a game with a black character and in the live action trailer they still manage to make him look white. Racist Marketing f***s I kid of course lol
by papajon555 Friday, April 13, 2012 at 10:18 PM
