A countdown timer for the last MONTH ... just to announce a new TRAILER!?
Fuck you Activision. I'll take great pleasure in pirating your bullshit game, if the fucking thing ever comes out.
=Edit=
The trailer says "Summer 2009" .. yet the mainsite says "Fall 2009"
Seriously, fuck you and your hype-machine Activision. I'm gonna download the PC and 360 versions, when they come, and burn them off for all my mates. No profit for you, fuckers.
"Prototype is showing plenty of promise and is sure to appeal to anyone keen on laying waste to a mutant city. Prototype will punch and smash its way onto the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC in June this year. Check back soon for more GameSpot coverage."
It was "Christmas 2007", two years ago. Then it was "Coming 2008!!" then it was "Q4-2008!!!!!1111" ... then it was "Spring 2009!!!" and now? "Summer/June 2009!!!"
It's bollocks. The game is never coming out. DNF and Alan Wake will be out before this.
Prototype has shown the same gameplay trailers for the last two years ... and they don't keep us updated, at all, they just regurgitate the same nonsense month after month.
As for Alan Wake's developers? It's being developed by REMEDY! I'm pretty bloody certain they're "nice" developers considering the games they've given us in the past
You know this is going to be released, because? Oh that's right, you don't.
Don't start with me mate. This is something you just read about in your "Official Playstation Magazine". I've been following the development of this since late 2006. Constant delays, regurgitated screenshots, the same trailers month after month after month. It's a hype machine, that's all it is.
I've already lost all excitement I had over this game back in the beginning of 2008 when it was delayed AGAIN.

I've also been following the game since it's announcement, yet the difference is I don't act as if that means the developers owe me anything. The game will be released when it's finished, as long as the delays are for the right reason it can only be a good thing for the final product.
It's not as if whining about it will make any difference. Also please stop making bullshit claims, they've released a fair amount of trailers over the development period. Just because you seem incapable of finding them does not mean they don't exist. Two were released a couple of days ago.

Incapable? bullshit. I've seen the "fair amount" (hahahahahahahahahahahah... oh that's funny, seriously, calling six trailers - three of which are just extended versions of the original - a fair amount is fucking HILARIOUS)
I don't act like anyone owes me anything, I'm just sick of the constant "It's coming! It's coming! It's coming!" like a low-grade porno orgasm. If you don't like that, tough shit, I'm entitled to an opinion and a rant as much as anyone.

There are sites other then gametrailers.com that host trailers you know. But I can see you prefer to just whine about things rather then be objective about criticism so I won't bother debating this any more.

Objectivity went out the window after the sixth announced delay, mate
I have no intentions of arguing with you, I was just stating my opinion on the matter. It was you that seemingly took offence to that and decided to clamber up on your high horse over it. I have no criticism against the game itself, since none here amongst us has ever played the game, what I DO criticise is the hype machine.
No offence dude, but I've had just about enough of "it's coming!!!!! Soon!!! You'll finally be able to play our game!!! Soon!!!! Next year!!! It's worth the wait!!!!" hype nonsense by now, after two years. Just release the bloody thing already or shut the fuck up

Have you seen the two new trailers? They show a fair bit of game play from the 'demo'. Plus if you check out the user movies of prototype on gametrailers you can find a few unofficial trailers of more game play from an older build.
I know how frustrating delays can be, but if the developers deliver a superb product at the end of it you'll be a lot happier the if they released a buggy unfinished mess 6 months earlier.

My major gripe, bud, isn't just with the delays. Delays happen, it's a part of gaming. My gripe is with the constant "in your face" attitude .. releasing the same rehashed trailer (if you watch the trailers, you'll see they're all from the same movie - just cut differently), some new screenshots every xxx months with the words "Coming soon!!!!" like it's the goddamn messiah or something.
I started following this when it was announced in 2006, saw the constant "coming soon!" and, understandably, got excited. It sounds like an awesome game. I just don't like being led like a donkey chasing a carrot, yanno? I wish they'd either shut up about the game, or get on with releasing rather than the constant teaser stuff.
... oh and please don't even get me started on their Hollywood-esque "countdown" timer they had on the site. What did we get at the end of this awesome countdown? Yippe, another trailer! :-\
(anyway, I'm sorry if it sounds like I'm always bitching. I'm just tired of waiting so long for a game I've really wanted since announcement, just like Huxley and Borderlands )

I dont read the PS mag btw, anyway ofc i dont know if its gonna be released but do you see me making 1000 posts about it ? Cause you have alot of posts in this thread claiming its not gonna be released, but in the end u dont know shit, cause your just a gamer not a fucking developer on the Prototype team...its ok saying you opinion about the game not being released but bringing that shit over and over again makes you look like some retard who needs attention
