Unless this is a VERY early April Fool’s joke for next year, the shape-shifting, third-person action game Prototype has been pushed back until April 1st, 2009. This, according to IGN as well as the Gamestop website. Prototype is being developed for the PC, Xbox 360, and Playstation 3 platforms.

A Sierra spokesperson had this to say:
‘Since its announcement, Prototype has been regarded by many as groundbreaking and taking the open-world genre in new directions, and in the simplest explanation possible, we need more time to deliver the game the team initially set out to create.’

That kind of proactive policing on the part of a video game publisher and developer is refreshing and welcome in an industry where more often than not, games are rushed out the door unfinished.
