I used to closely compare this and InFamous to each other when I had first heard about them, but now I'm beginning to think InFamous will be better. Nothing to do with exclusivity, just everything I've heard about it says the game will be flat out amazing. That and I haven't heard enough about prototype, and what I have heard is that it's a very linear game with limited 'do what you want' ability.

Really?

I've heard it's a gorier cross between Assassin's Creed and Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction.

Which would make it the best game ever.

 

Gorier is nice..but if it's linear and I can't walk around the city killing off the police force, I don't want to play.  If I can't climb up all the buildings and hide when I'm hurt, I don't want to play.

The game looks good, don't get me wrong.  And linear isn't always bad if you know what you're doing when you make the game.  The special powers the character has, and the way he evolves and attains new powers looks compelling.  Regardless of any negative I can come up with, I'm going to at the very least rent this game and give it it's due diligence.  That said, I'm still expecting InFamous to be better.  I never said it won't be good or fun.
