I've heard a lot of rumors over the development, cancellation, or impossibility of a Prototype 3. Perhaps some fellow dakkanauts can shed some light on this.
Prototype is one of my favorite series. I'm curious towards it's future.

Finally found my quote from a gym buddy born and raised in South Korea:
"It is the soldier, not the reporter who has given us the freedom of the press.
"It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us the freedom of speech.
"It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who gives us the freedom to demonstrate.
"It is the soldier who salutes the flag, who serves beneath the flag, and whose coffin is draped by the flag, who allows the protester to burn the flag."

Based on the massive flop (And crap) game the previous was, highly doubtful.

Prototype has always had crap story and characters. It's also always had some of the coolest animations and best gameplay in the hundreds of next gen action games I've played. I'm sorry but the insurmountable waist high walls and wonky controls of Mass Effect, the boring shooting of Halo, or the lack of real power in Infamous are serious turn offs.
Yahtzee and nearly all reviewers who aren't paid to market love Prototype 2.
The Prototype series has good games. That's it.

On June 28, 2012, Activision announced that despite the "substantial investment", the game "did not find a broad commercial audience", and as a result, developer Radical would encounter layoffs and the studio would be reduced to a supporting role towards other Activision projects.

The game didn't sell well enough so Activision punished the studio. No third game.

Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.

Excerpt from "Seeress of Kell", Book Five of The Malloreon series by David Eddings.

Probably because, like all sequals in this day and age, they didn't bother trying to improve on the original game, just repeated it with a new story.

How many people would have bought Prototype 2 if they'd have made the side quests more immersive, and cleaned up the controller a little? But no. Just more of the same.

The plural of codex is codexes.
