Prototype 2 looks like a dead cert for a Spike Video Game Awards reveal after flashes of footage of the original game popped up on viral website Murderyourmaker.com.

It is the latest in a series of teasers for the openworld superhero sequel that began with the launch of the Murderyourmaker website last month.

The plot thickened when the third of three zombie-related VGA images found its way onto the internet.

Prototype, made by Radical Entertainment and released in June 2009, tells the story of Alex Mercer, a man who has super powers - and can consume people. He doesn't know why, but sets about regaining his memory and getting answers after waking up in a morgue. The plot then goes bonkers, but suffice to say the door was left open for a sequel.

Tom gave Prototype 7/10 in Eurogamer's review.

Expect fireworks on 11th December 2010 at the Spike TV Video Game Awards.
