The E3 2011 trailer for Radical Entertainment's super-powered sequel Prototype 2 has arrived, overflowing with blood, guts, and growled threats. In it, we see that new protagonist James Hellar's revenge on the original star's Alex Mercer involves... spreading exactly the sort of carnage as Mercer did. Well, They do say we hate people who remind us of ourselves. Or who turn us into mutated monstrosities.

Prototype 2 is due out on PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 in 2012, published by Activision.

Here's a hot prediction for you: Inception-style booming bassy brass hits will be the must-have sound effect for this year's E3 trailers.

  Yeah, that's exactly what I'd expect from a prototype trailer.

  Blargh, looks painfully average.

  Seems like a bad move to be going AGAINST the main character of the previous game...
