Choose Your Own Disaster
All those powers let you achieve your objectives using drastically different approaches, and Prototype's best missions take full advantage of that flexibility. Need to infiltrate a base? You can rush around on foot sabotaging defenses then stealth-consume some patrols before quietly snacking on the base commander. Or you can grab and eat your target in full view of his comrades and try to bull your way through the ensuing aftermath. I have to admit that I occasionally got frustrated with a few of the longer missions, particularly one that insisted I sustain the interest of a Hunter with attention deficit disorder while luring him from one end of the city to the other, but the majority were entertaining and varied enough to keep me playing for many hours at a time.
But even after you complete the 31 main missions, there's still plenty left to keep you busy. Web of Intrigue targets unlock hyper-stylized movies that dribble out tantalizing details from this dark alternate universe, and collectible landmark and hint orbs hide all over the place. Tons of side missions challenge you to run through waypoints, slaughter crowds, glide for accuracy, and much more. I spent at least two hours happily hijacking helicopters and annihilating infected base buildings just for the sheer hell of it.

Playing inFamous made me develop a taste for sanbox games, so I'm definately picking up Prototype.

Strange, i tried this already, Prototype...Take Crackdown, spiderman, ninja gaiden, an actual storyline, some twists and spices, blend it all up and plate it up like a mario batali entree and you got yourself one hell of a game in prototype.. BUY IT
