Prototype 2 Save Game 100 -

Second, the 100% save file serves as a . The standard progression system locks away the most fun and visually spectacular abilities until the final hours of the game. The "Bio-Bomb" (launching an infected human as a living grenade) and the "Pack Leader" (summoning a pack of Brawlers) are endgame treats. With a 100% save, these become your standard tools. Players can craft their own challenges: can you clear a military base using only the whipfist and no health upgrades? Can you cross the entire Yellow Zone using only air-dashes and gliding without touching the ground? The save file removes the "leveling up" metagame and replaces it with pure mastery of a complete toolkit.

Of course, there are arguments against using such a save. Prototype 2 carefully introduces each enemy type (the agile Evolved, the armored Juggernaut) alongside the power best suited to counter it. Starting at 100% can overwhelm a new player with too many options and rob them of the satisfaction of finally unlocking that "Hammerfist Slam" after a difficult boss fight. For a first-time player, using a 100% save is like reading the last page of a mystery novel first—it gives you all the answers, but spoils the journey. prototype 2 save game 100

First, it is essential to understand what a "100% save game" actually entails. For Prototype 2 , reaching 100% completion is a significant undertaking. It requires the player to not only finish the main story campaign but also to hunt down every Blacknet satellite, collect every genetic memory (the game’s equivalent of collectible audio logs), complete all side-quests (consume events, lairs, and military bases), and fully upgrade Heller’s vast arsenal of powers, from claws and hammerfists to mobility-enhancing mutations. Doing this legitimately takes dozens of hours and often involves backtracking across a map that, while fun to traverse, can become repetitive. The 100% save file, therefore, represents a shortcut past the grind and directly to the summit of power. Second, the 100% save file serves as a

The primary value of a 100% save game is the . In Prototype 2 , starting a new game with a 100% file (if the game allows it, or by simply using the save file itself) means you begin as a god. You have every tendril barrage, every devastator attack, and every mobility upgrade from the moment Heller first lands on the aircraft carrier. This transforms the game's genre. It is no longer a survival-action game where you must carefully pick off enemies and retreat to heal. Instead, it becomes a sandbox destruction simulator . You can ignore the story missions entirely and simply create chaos. Want to see how long you can last at a Level 3 alert with every power unlocked? The 100% save allows that instantly. With a 100% save, these become your standard tools

In the sprawling, blood-soaked sandbox of Prototype 2 , players take on the role of Sgt. James Heller, a man consumed by rage and a singular mission: to kill the viral protaganist Alex Mercer. The game is a power fantasy of the highest order, allowing players to sprint up skyscrapers, glide across the infected New York Zero, and unleash devastating biological weapons. Yet, buried in the forums and file-sharing networks of the internet lies a curious artifact: the "Prototype 2 100% Save Game." At first glance, it seems to defeat the purpose of playing the game. But a closer look reveals that this single file is not just a cheat; it is a key to a different kind of experience, one focused on mastery, liberation, and pure, consequence-free destruction.

How to Use the Translation Patch

  1. Unzip the contents of this zip file to a folder/directory. You should find the following files:
    • mother12.ips
    • mother12.txt
  2. Second, you will need to obtain a ROM of the Japanese version of MOTHER 1+2. This clearly steps into promoting piracy, so you will have to find this on your own. Search engines are useful for this sort of thing.

    Once you have the ROM, make sure it is unzipped/uncompressed. The file should be 16 MB in size. Put this file in the same folder as the files from above.
  3. Most modern emulators will automatically patch IPS patches when you load a ROM. This is known as "soft-patching". If your emulator can do this, then make sure the IPS file is called "mother12.ips" and that the ROM is called "mother12.gba". Then load the ROM in your emulator. If all goes well, the translation patch should work automatically!

    If it's not working and you're sure your emulator can soft-patch IPS files, then you might have to put the IPS file in a different folder, depending on your settings and what emulator you're using. Check your settings and read the documentation that came with your emulator.
  4. If you don't want to use soft-patching or if you can't get it to work, then you can always hard-patch it. Download Lunar IPS here. With it, you can permanently patch the ROM. Then just load your ROM in your emulator.

NOTE: If you're still having trouble getting either methods to work, then see here.

I often get e-mails from people asking how they can donate to my projects, but I don't like to accept donations for this particular kind of stuff. If you'd still really like to help out, though, if you buy any EarthBound/MOTHER merchandise through these links, I'll get a dollar or so. This will help keep EarthBound Central up and running, not to mention many of my other projects, like Game Swag!
