Well, I'll have to wait & see, but I'm not feeling this one. The setting isn't changed, and the story doesn't seem all that different. Just seems like a big old recycle of the original title.
I mean, more so than usual for a sequel. SWB

I wonder what's his plan to kill someone who took a nuke and lived.

I'm unsure about this. On the one hand, Alex Mercer is probably the most boring, uncharacterised character in videogaming history, who has even less depth than a cardboard cutout, so replacing him with someone else might actually generate some kind of actual plot that I might care about this time.
But then on the other hand, it's still in New Goddamn York city (ver.234675/gamma6), with the only difference being, "it's a bit more fucked up than last time." Still though we can guarantee the new powers are going to be pretty fucking awesome and the idea of fighting Mercer as someone who is as powerful as Mercer himself is a perfect recipe for some seriously awesome battles. So as long as the gameplay's good it'll probably be pretty fun, the downside being it's essentially a rehash of the first, so probably not worth actually buying instead of renting.

The first Prototype is still one of my favorite ways to relieve stress, so I'm actually sort of psyched for this. I'm a little put off by the new character though; I mean, after the last game, I was under the impression that Mercer was going to have to go find and destroy PARIAH...

So they're going with "Prototype 2"? Nothing funny about that? Nothing you should traditionally be doing after completing the prototype? No creative sequel names that could be made out of that?

I'm guessing "Test Model" didn't do too well in focus groups
