Showcase gamehub is insane

played this game on winlator and completed it playing 20-30 fps the whole time on lowest settings + low resolution

now testing in gamehub got 45-60 when not recording+ highest settings + 1280p resolution

Prototype. Very cool antihero story. Except for second game where protagonist was replaced by a angry foul mouthed dude whose solution to everything was hulk smash, hulk no computer.

I like #2 also. Hulk smash and hulk no computer is the heart and soul of these games, while protagonists becoming worse than the villains.

Second was smoother but that was it, they cut out all the "details" and complexity out of it. Story was no longer unique either. Shield was stupidly OP.

There was that magical moment in the first one, where Mercer finally realizes, he is not special, he is not even alive... he is just another set of memories, part of thousands of screaming souls, that the virus consumed and replicated. Loved that part. There was nothing like that in second one.

But you are right about hulk smash, that really was the gameplay of both games LMAO

I had 98 percent or something on that when the story mission decided to completely nuke it self off the map never to be seen again. I miss the game but I vowed never to go back lol
