It sounds cool, and for the most part it is, until the plot starts to disappear up its own arse in the final third and the whole thing degenerates into one big fight that gets really old really quick.
Absorbing a person gives Mercer access to some of their memories and allows him to shape-shift into them should he need to, which becomes a gory focus of the gameplay. What follows is a pretty standard superhero rampage a la inFAMOUS as you target the soldiers and scientists of Blacklight, the dodgy paramilitary company Mercer blames for the outbreak. While most people are killed or consumed by the virus, Alex is strengthened, mutated, enhanced. The first Prototype follows Alex Mercer, the victim of a powerful mutagenic virus running rampant through Manhattan. Having now played both games, I can sort of see why. It was almost as if they felt somehow apologetic. I didn’t know about the remastered bundle hitting Xbox One until it hit, but Activision’s stealth release seemed geared for that effect. I’m also not ashamed to say I was probably a little generous, in hindsight. I reviewed both of Radical’s Prototype titles upon release and I’m not ashamed to say I gave both games 8/10. Sometimes, now and then, you just get it wrong.
You try not to second guess yourself and you try to be as thorough as you can. Sometimes you don’t miss miss them, but misjudge them instead. As a critic, you try to analyse every detail, try to subjectively examine every facet.
In my opinion, this game proves Tekken X Street Fighter can happen and with Akuma being balanced with other Tekken characters yet maintaining most moves verifies the addition of other Street Fighter characters.Sometimes it’s hard to pinpoint exactly what’s wrong with a game. The game is getting very positive reviews and the most notable one is 9.5 from IGN and that suggests most people are enjoying the gameplay and the new features. So far there is hardly anyone that feels the rage arts, rage drive or addition of Akuma compromise the Tekken gameplay. The main difference is that Tekken 7 have implemented it in way which can be considered more fair as it's enabled once the player reaches a certain amount of health. As most major fighting games such as Mortal Kombat and Injustice have cinematic high damage attacks and overriding attacks, it may have influenced the idea of rage arts and rage drive. Rage Arts and rage drive have changed the usual combat scenario when a fighter is low on health as the player can change the momentum by successfully using the rage art or drive. Akuma in this game may answer the question whether street fighter characters can exist in Tekken but for now it's fair to say characters like Ryu, Ken and Oni can definitely fit into Tekken based on having fighting characteristics similar to Akuma.

What's even better is that the majority of his moves and combos from the Street Fighter series can still be performed using the same buttons/sequences.
The addition of Akuma in Tekken 7 is truly wonderful and he fits in the game perfectly despite the fact he is one of the few characters that have a projectile attack. The gameplay still captures the essence of Tekken however the gameplay addititons could be in to present more interesting and fun fighting scenarios and/or to see if a Tekken X Street Fighter would be possible. Tekken 7 has new additions such as rage arts and rage drive which can be compared to Street Fighter's critical art/ultra attack and guard break attacks.
