This game vanilla wise, without Nexus Mods is literally unplayable.
Remember to go to Task Manager>Details, right-click on steam.exe, Set Affinity, then only select 4 cores to use while you are wanting to play Prototype. Good game, couple of instances of jank. Very doable if you keep moving.
"Prototype: The Game Where You’re Basically a Walking War Crime"
10/10 - Would Consume Random People Again
Prototype is the only game where you can go from running up skyscrapers to drop-kicking a helicopter, all while looking like you just escaped a sci-fi horror movie. The story? Who cares. The gameplay? Pure chaos.
I spent 90% of my time running around, consuming random civilians, and yelling “I’m the main character!” at my screen.
Just don’t ask why I spent 20 minutes running up buildings and jumping off for no reason.
7.5/10, would lose my humanity again.
OKAY, Yes i ABSOLUTELY recommend this game. HOWEVER, current gen PC's have some compatibility issues. I found 3 links to help.
https://www.nexusmods.com/prototype/mods/52?tab=files.
This is on another comment to help. Nexus has fixes, but i SWEAR i found another elsewhere through a Reddit page...
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3060187840
I didn't use this one, but It has links to fixes as well as step by step instructions.
And finally

This helps if you have multiple cores. The game seems to have issue with More than 4 cores. This guy has a simple instruction bit on how to fix that, as well as links in the description.
That's 3 paths to get this Beauty going. Take your pick ;)
GL and game on!
a game ahead of it's time. too bad they won't make anything like this anymore...
gameplay 10/10
vehicle gameplay 5/10 (driving a tank gave me brain tumor, helicopters were alright)
story 7/10 (still interesting and intriguing)
graphics 10/10 for 2008
music 9/10
Fucking crashes so much, such a shame too, I tried everything, even the mod that FIXES the crash, and it didn't work, I loved this game so much and now this slop doesn't work.
The traversal is amazing, truly gives you an amazing feeling like no other. Story is definitely a bit dated, but I'd say the gameplay is what really makes it stand out. Definitely worth a try :)
For its time, must've been really good, but man, I tried giving it a chance and I just couldn't play it after a few missions because of the controls and the spike in difficulty.

Does not work by default. It will crash as soon as you try to start a new game. Download this nexus mod to make it functional: https://www.nexusmods.com/prototype/mods/52?tab=files. Beyond the annoyance of installing this fix, the game is super fun. Basically GTA SA in riot mode, but you're a super-mutant with crazy powers and parkour abilities that you use to fight the military and the monsters they've brought upon the city--hell, you even get to use some the military's weapons/vehicles/personnel against them.
Every Pc i try this game on....crashes. any setting its unplayable.....
Unexpectedly enjoyable experience, although i can understand that many players can find the game repetitive.
I mean, look, the game has flaws. It's an Activision superhero style game with all the repetitiveness that's associated with the type
But the story and gameplay are top-tier!
Play it, but also be forgiving of some really messed up 7th gen level design
An amazing childhood game, to make it work you need to download the fix from NexusMods website, no need to change your CPU core usage.
incredible gameplay and a good story
Unfortunately, the game does not run on new generation PCs, even though I reduced the number of cores...
It's a good game but you'll need to download a fix from the internet. Just google "Prototype game fix" and you should find the latest version.
It's a classic superhero with superpowers game. Find enemies, destroy enemies, story time, rinse, repeat. The movement in this game is top notch and still one of my favorite mechanics in any game by far.
i like this game since i was a kid ngl this is recommend to play but there's a random crash somtimes but still good
it is true that the game is dated for modern computers, however the community has provided not only start up and resolution fixes, they also have FPS and FOV fixes too :D
With a simple fix found on Nexus, the game runs great on PC.
Out of the box works great on steam deck (I havent beat the game overall but I would assume I can.)
Nostalgic fun for me, love running around causing chaos as a living weapon.
Good game but dated and i personally don't want to see an IP revival/reboot because you just know they'll star a black lesbian with the kilmonger haircut as the protagonist
great game, I dont know why people complain so much about the game not working properly, its such an easy fix. go to nexus mods, type in prototype, look at the most popular/most downloaded mod. follow the instructions on how to install the mod properly, and boom your bugs and crashes are gone. you cant expect EVERY game thats this old to work without any issue on modern PCs.
So in 2025 the game is good but you need to install a dll to allow for higher res , you need to change ur affinity for steam to four cores and you need to disable some things in device manager so honestly just emulate the game if ur not cool doing that
the elizibeth green boss fight has to be the most poorly desined boss fight ever made.
boss just spams projectiles and an insta kill move when you get close, then you have the constanly spawning hunters that stop you from healing because of their uniteruptable attack.
after this boss fight its no wounder why infamous dominated in sales compaired to this game because they know how to make boss fights fun and interesting.
It's a fun game from what I have played which is about 10-20mins of actual gameplay the only problem i'm experiencing is audio, cutscenes are all staticy and then voices are all high pitched so i'm wondering if anyone knows how to fix it?
Great games
Feels like those old ps2 spiderman games i used to play, only with blades, hammers, Whips, Zombies, Guns, Tanks and the military
Good freedom, flying/climbing
Disguise as enemys and infiltrate
This game is a classic. Prototype is a pretty fun open world game that was way ahead of its time.
Nowadays the graphics are a bit dated obviously, but to this day there has not been a game like it.
However the game is just not supported for newer systems, and you have to go through a lot of loopholes to make it work. The max resolution is like 1280x800 or something, and my FPS was so bad that the rendered cinematics were lagging and had choppy audio.
It's not bad. It definitely feels dated, but that's because it is really dated. The bosses are all absolute trash though.
The game is good so far. I'd recommend getting a Nexus mod that fixes the fact that the game crashes when loading in. (It basically disables the game from trying to load billboard textures from a defunct website that causes the game to crash) It also fixes a few other issues. I can't link it but search "Nexus Prototype 1 fix" and you should find it easily it should be titled "PrototypeFix - CrashFix - FPSFix - FrameDouble fix"
Please make Prototype 3 to wipeout the poor lazy writing of Protofart 2 from existence. Both games are cool I had fun on my ultra comfy and totally intact with no cat scratches 20$ black thrift store couch (can you imagine my couch costs less than proto2?? Tax included)
But what the shiZat happened near the ending of proto2? Twas clearly rushed y'all... We need proto3 to excuse the mess they made for the story of proto2. I repeated myself cuz I haves the 80HD!!1!!
Real review: If you like smashing things, killing people and messing with the military while wearing a hoodie and acting all edgster on society... just play the darn viddya gaem. The way I see it: Spider-Man is Sonic, ok? Alex Mercer is Shadow. Boom. Similiar game mechs, different stories. No BS. Now you pick your poison. I'm going with this one fellas.
Love me some dark roast coffee and cigars typa game. This title's got a place in the bundle of Y2K nostalgia top hits. Get real gamerz.
Game doesn't run at all on modern systems. Keeps crashing, don't buy.
In a time where the most interesting game was GTA and call of duty, this was very refreshing. It was open world, you could scale any building you saw, your powers were unchecked, and you were incestivized to inflict heavy casualties to the population of this virtual city. You can also pretend you're an npc, if you want to roleplay like that
While the PC port is a bit iffy and does needs mods to fix its current hiccups, do check the guide section to align the necessities to their places. Otherwise expect a few cutscene crashes here and there but still playable.
Prototype is one of those games that was lost in time when PlayStation 3 was still a gem to be played, did so back then as a kid but probably never ever finished it due to difficulty being so outrageously stupid and upgraded enemies or explosive damage just knocks you out in a whiff. Now replayed on Steam version and finished, I must say I'm impressed how this game holds up. It has great city landscape of Manhattan with nice addition of sandbox to play around, run, glide and cause chaos at your own pace. The story is pretty average and cutscenes are very cheesy but has this funny charm that works so well. Although for its date and time release game has a great gameplay value since you have so much to do with the activities- just a shame they don't reward you much with unlockables and especially difficulty unlocking for Hard doesn't offer same way as well. But it is there if you wanna feel rewarded for doing so. Especially upgrade system giving you so many powers to have fun with, with a blend of stealth use too.
All in all I like it, there's a few bugs and glitches plus some combat issues that occur every now and then so you have to cheese as badly as possible. And some enemies are a bit tad annoying to deal with. If anything I do suggest trying the game on Easy difficulty if you don't wanna restart missions due to such repetition on dying against beefy enemies.
Runs like hot garbage on modern systems, and is basically unplayable.
Yes, but to make it run you need to run Steam on 4 Cores.
Make a .bat file in Notepad (it's just a text file which you save with .bat instead of .txt)
Put the following lines in and after you save it, run the file as Admin.
chdir C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam
start /affinity 7 Steam.exe
I played this game all the time back on the 360. It is one of my favorite games from that era. Yes it needs some work on your end to work properly on newer hardware but it's worth it. You can elbow drop tanks what more do you need from a game?
[PROTOTYPE] is one of the rare Gem games that you don't see any more from today's game industry unfortunately. The game let you play as Amnesiac protagonist Anti-Hero Alex Mercer who has unnatural God-Like shapeshifting abilities & hunting down specific targets responsible of the event while causing Choas in your way feeling like an unstoppable force in an Open World infected battle zoned New York City. While the game takes place in New York City, Parkouring at High Speed in this game, to this day is still unmatched & fun as ever, even the movements in Insomniac's Marvel Spider-Man Remastered 2020 just doesn't compare & I'm a fan of that game too. The game takes that M Rated Mature to a pretty Dark & Edgy tone, that's because that was a product of its time which was 2009, Alongside another similar great game which is inFAMOUS (Only on PlayStation)
Graphically, this the 7th Gen Version of the game for the PS3 & XBOX 360, not the Biohazard Bundle 8th Gen Version that's only available for the PS4 & XBOX ONE with some obvious improvements in textures & lighting. But if you look past the 7th Gen graphics, does it really matter? As long as the game is set to do, which is having an absolute fun time with your God-Like powers.
[PROTOTYPE] was made by Radical Entertainment, the same developers that also did the Hit 2005 game The Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction & other Legendary Games like Scarface: The World is Yours & The Simpsons: Hit & Run. Much respect for them for simply wanting to make fun Open World games. Unfortunately, the same couldn't be said by their parent company Activision-Blizzard who pretty much laid off Radical Entertainment's staff for "Not doing a good enough job" basically back in 2012.
Honestly since Microsoft now pretty much owns Activision-Blizzard which still holds the rights to the [PROTOTYPE] IP, it might as well be a good time & give the [PROTOTYPE] IP to a new passionate game developer to make a very good Quality Modern [PROTOTYPE] game, either it be a Sequel/Reboot/Remake which ever, that would be a dream come true especially on powerful current gen consoles to take advantage of. Not only that but for new generations of players to experience [PROTOTYPE] as a whole like I did, with the same love & care Motive did with the Dead Space Remake game or what Insomniac Games did for the Marvel Spider-Man games.
For me personally I give [PROTOTYPE] a solid 8 out of 10.
Just for creating so many pure fun memories. Played the Hell out of this game back in the day on the 7th Gen & 8th Gen consoles, now on PC because I have a Steam Deck OLED.
(Actual PlayTime is 14 hours) I remember seeing an add for this at Game stop on repeat 15 years ago, But I wasn't interested till recently. It's really good. Radical took their work on Hulk Ultimate destruction and applied it too the Modern Warfare crowd. unfortunately an Nvidia Update just made this unplayable, Patch and all
Amazing game, and its even better when you've maxed out and play the story + mode.
I can't play the game, I download it, I press start and as soon as I press, new game, it crashes.
I had so much fun with this game but once I got a better laptop it would just crash so its a great game just dont have a powerful laptop
Heads up, the game doesn't work on newer devices, you meed some workaround to get it to play. But it is totally worth it. Absolutely love this game. First played it when I was a child and loved it, recently picked it up thinking that it would be one of those games you only like why you are small. But surprisingly it is genuinely fun, not very grindy and makes you feel like a badass.
This game is a classic. Prototype is a pretty fun open world game that was way ahead of its time. Nowadays the graphics are a bit dated obviously, but to this day there has not been a game like it.
I love this game.
However, after i changes my computer, this game keep crash after i try to start new game.
My computer spect are above the spect this game required to play.
Does anyone can help me?
to fix crashing and slow game on windows 10 disable steam.exe cores by setting affinity in task manager, only enable few like 0-4 or 5
A very entertaining game with an incredible feeling of power fantasy- Something I have been missing in newer video games.
However the game is just not supported for newer systems, and you have to go through a lot of loopholes to make it work. The max resolution is like 1280x800 or something, and my FPS was so bad that the rendered cinematics were lagging and had choppy audio.
You have to install multiple mods, disable HID drivers, and cap your fps at 60 to make the game work properly. No thanks.
Sending back as refund, I can't get this crap to work with the proton/linux resolutions, and I haven't even started the game. I'll just play it on playstation, geez. This games engine did not age on pc well, and the devs don't update anything. sigh. a gem of a game...
Awesome gameplay, love the freeroam mechanics, but I had to do a whole ton of computational gymnastics just to get the game to run. Also dialogue's kinda... artificial
The game just doesn't run... at least correctly.
It's a product of its time in more ways than the gameplay and graphics. Though they aren't as lackluster as you would expect from a 15 year old game.
The main issue with the game is it just not running. The game apparently has a set limit of 4 cores active in the device it runs. If you pass that threshold (Which you most definitely will in any modern PC) the game crashes on startup. So if you want to even launch the game, you will need to deactivate most of the cores present in your PC for Steam. Which becomes a chore since you need to deactivate and activate them everytime you launch and close the game unless you're fine with playing every game you own on steam with 4 cores.
Another technical issue arises when you, and I am being serious, try to move your mouse. The game has an interesting relationship with modern mice. Which I had no idea were different from older mice until this game revealed it to me. Your mouse will stutter and lag in a way that will ruin the gameplay completely.
Truly one of the games of all time.
But under all of those problems and the random crashes which goes without mentioning, what awaits us?
An edgy 2000's power fantasy of a gem. 7/10 for today's standarts, disregarding limitations of its time such as the graphics.
