As we slowly trudge our way toward the Spike Video Game Awards, incessant speculation and rudderless gossip runs rampant. The latest biggie is the appearance ofa “Murder Your Maker” teaser sitefeaturing the back of a bald man’s head. Mysterious.
The site’s registered to Activision, and a fair few chaps believe that it’s leading towards the announcement ofPrototype 2. It’s as good a guess as any, considering the game’s protagonist, Alex Mercer, does a fair amount of murdering and has a very literal connection to the word “Maker.”
While right now this is a case of people jumping to conclusions, we’re definitely overdue an announcement.Prototypesold pretty damn decently when it was released last year, definitely enough to justify a sequel. We all know Activision well enough by now to understand that if a sequel can get made, a sequel will get made.
A few weeks ago I actually asked Activision about a potentialPrototypesequel but got a general “Nothing to announce at this time” line. All I’ll say is that I’d f*cking love a newPrototype, so yes please.
