I'm new at this, so my attribution is not in place yet. I'm not sure exactly how to select a decent source, nor how to place the attribution in the body of the page. Not yet, anyways. Jasonimus Prime 07:14, 16 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I started this article and I didn't know anything about Wikipedia's system. Someone apparently fixed the article up so its okay. NinjaRooster 03:35, 25 August 2007 (UTC) 03:32, 25 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If someone doesn't add a reliable source that states this game will be avaible on PC, it should be removed. Samuitsuki 13:15, 28 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have removed text that stated the game would be avaible on PC, since there wasn't added any reliable source. -- Samuitsuki (talk) 21:33, 16 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The sierra website is a reliable source: [1]. - Emva 22:40, 1 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The introduction is too long, it needs to be shortened. SymbolicMeaning 19:54, 25 February 2008 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by SymbolicMeaning (talkcontribs)

Formatting

I fixed up the formatting of the page a bit and added a tag for more sources (it has a decent amount already, but it still needs in-text sources and I'm too busy/lazy to do it myself). More detailed and technical sections on gameplay, development, and release should be added too. -Fearfulsymmetry 16:58, 7 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"(Here is the refeerence; http://uk.ps3.ign.com/articles/871/871582p1.html)" This needs to be put as a source formatted like the others. I do not know how to or else I would do it. 67.142.235.68 (talk) 14:06, 25 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Game Setting

The events of the game takes place in fictional city named "Hope". You can check this on game official site 83.8.41.1 (talk) 15:02, 21 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • On game official page you can find an screen of postcard stating "HOPE - Idaho - The nicest people on earth!". In addition, title of image states that its population is '79'. Another image constains map of whole USA, with market Hope 83.8.39.57 (talk) 14:23, 22 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Official interview with the guys making it says it takes place in New York. In one of Mercer's Web of Intregue video's there's a flashback of a place called "Hope", so I'm thinking that may be Mercer's hometown, as he says in one of the videos he's seen a whole towns vanish. Of course, this is all just speculation on my part, but the majority of the game takes place in NYC. 75.157.75.19 (talk) 04:03, 14 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Mercer's outsit(s)

In some screenshots Alex is seen wearing a white hoody and a black vest, and in others he's wearing a white shirt, a grey hoody, and a black jacket. In an interview one of the developers says there wouldn't be any clothes swapping, so what's up with the different outfits? 75.157.75.19 (talk) 04:03, 14 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

2009?

The developers stated that the game would come out late 2008.--Kondrayus (talk) 20:16, 6 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Release date was delayed to April 2009 http://uk.ps3.ign.com/articles/871/871582p1.html 67.142.235.68 (talk) 14:15, 25 May 2008 (UTC) EDIT: heh, turns out the link for the multiplayer is a better source for the delay then what I found 67.142.235.68 (talk) 14:47, 25 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Remove Advert Tag

I rewrote the Plot section. Does anyone have a problem removing the Advert tag? Mjworthey (talk) 21:53, 6 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It's short and simple. I'd say it's fine.--Kondrayus (talk) 22:27, 9 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Censorship

It's been reported on various sites that Prototype will go under censorship for its Australian (and probably New Zealand) release.--Vylen (talk) 08:58, 9 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Multiplayer?

When and who edited the multiplayer section? And shouldn't such a statement require a source? Oruko (talk) 12:22, 9 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not the one who edited it, but I do recall seeing a video where one of the designers talks about online multiplayer, but I don't remember how I found it. I do know that I typed in prototype game interview on youtube and somehow came across it.--Kondrayus (talk) 23:00, 28 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Release Date?

Well, obviously no one knows the exact date Prototype comes out, but according to GameStop, the pre-order doesn't even ship until the first of April... Has anyone else seen this? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.55.190.72 (talk) 21:31, 17 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
