Plot
The game follows Terry Rodriguez (Shia LaBeouf) who wakes up in a morgue in the basement of Gentek, a genetic engineering company based in Manhattan, sending a pair of scientists that were just about to perform an autopsy running. Terry escapes, and witnesses the scientists being gunned down by military operatives. Terry is discovered and attacked. He survives bullets being fired into his chest, and leaps over a wall to safety. He soon discovers he now possesses powerful shapeshifting abilities, superhuman strength, speed, agility, durability, senses, endurance, weaponry and the ability to "consume" people to gain their memories, skills and appearance. With no memory of his previous life, Alex decides to find and consume those related to the conspiracy in order to uncover the truth. During his quest, Alex faces two factions: the United States Marine Corps and Blackwatch, a Fort Detrick special forces unit dedicated to combating biological warfare. Captain Robert Cross (Donald Faison), a Blackwatch officer, is given orders to find and contain Rodriguez.

The next day, after arriving home, he finds out that LAPD, SWAT, FBI, Blackwatch and the Army are outside his door. Realizing this, he grabs his iPod, and makes a run for it across Skid Row to his safehouse in South Central while Limp Bizkit's Rollin plays in the background.

After Terry arrives in South Central, a kid continuously calls him a "punk". Terry says him to call him punk one more time. Punk and a claw goes straight into the kid's mouth, scaring the other kids. After a few days, it is found out that Terry Rodriguez is just patient zero and that other people in Los Angeles are catching his virus and are turning like him. Just a few days ago, a body was found, mauled up.

As the virus expands, the Californian governor announces a quarantine for Los Angeles, completely turning it into a police state. Rodriguez creates a alliance called "The Dead", focusing on causing as much chaos across L.A. Terry and a fellow member of his: William Denver (Eric Balfour) decide to place backpack bombs on the city's busy bus system. The plan works perfectly and a bomb explodes on a bus, killing 47 people.
