And as it's a sandbox game, it's basically the type of game that you need to go and do missions. there are Story Missions and Events. The Story Missions basically give it away, and the Events are for those who want to get more EP's (Experience Points) and buy all Upgrades in the game.
The game's difficulty is graded in this (on Normal, by the way):
I AM SERIOUS. /capsOk, easy for a Normal guy. ----> Now we're talking! ----> Are you serious? ----> Why is it annoying me? ---> RAAAAAAGE
The game's difficulty gets harder and Harder and HARDER when you progress. usually stupidly hard or the so-frustrating-you-must-try-until-completion hard (like Megaman).

Overall, Prototype is not the best game ever, nor one of the best, but it still bring a fun time to anyone who enjoys sandbox games. it's powers are okay, the difficulty gets really annoying, but it's fun, the graphics are okay and although the replayability is low, it still gives you a lot to explore. If you have a free time to burn, get this and be sure to look into a deep story.
