Want multiplayer in Prototype 2? Buy Prototype 1

When the open world smash-em-up Prototype was first revealed, online multiplayer was one of the most exciting features on the docket. Unfortunately, it was discovered last month that the feature (both online and off) has been removed from the game so the team at Radical Entertainment can focus on the single-player experience. For those who lamented the loss of multiplayer, we have some almost good news. No, it's still not going to be included in Prototype, but Radical Entertainment's Chris Ansell recently told Eurogamer that it could show up in Prototype 2. The catch, of course, is that there has to be a Prototype 2. So, if you really want to see how good Prototype multiplayer can be, you'd best hope it sells enough copies to merit a sequel.

Ghey. I'm probably going to buy this anyway, but I was totally looking forward to co-op in this game. I need Crackdown 2!

I feel for them, but it's hard to justify buying any game without solid co-op or multiplayer on it. What compels me to play it after I beat it?? If nothing, then I might as well just rent it.

If they're serious about staying single player, then it has to be Bioshock good before I'll buy it.
