Activision is one of the biggest firms in the gaming industry today. It has made a huge amount of money thanks to franchises like Guitar Hero or Call of Duty, for which it creates new iterations on a yearly or even more often basis.
But the company is also focused on new projects and properties, with the most interesting one being
Prototype, the open world adventure of one Alex Mercer. He has been subjected to a series of experiments that have provided him a wide variety of super powers, which he can use for the good of mankind or for his own good.
We've already seen some details about the
collector's edition of the game, which will sport a variety of goodies and swag according to the retailer that the gamer can order it from. During the E3 conference, the Prototype forums have seen the PC system requirements posted. Here they are:
OS: Windows XP (with Service Pack 3) and DirectX 9.0c or (Windows Vista with Service Pack 2)
