I remember there was a thread that asked you to categorized games you were hyped for, on the edge for, and just interested to get later. I wrote that inFamous was on the edge, but was a bit skeptical. I think that I'll wait for a few more reviews, but this review is obviously in the positive direction. I'm kinda interested in the story and characters now, and both of them I thought, were looking like the weakness of the game.

If there truly is an absolutely amazing climax, consequences (the screen shot with a destroyed city area makes me full of imaginations), etc. The voice is what scared me (it reminded me a lot of Assassin's Creed, which, IGN slammed and I'm glad for), but IGN is promising a good story.

I'll wait, but I'm pretty much wobling on the edge now, ready to jump on this game.

The thing that worried me before was the possibility of the fighting mechanics to become overly repititive.
Haven't heard that complaint in the review though.

And from reading the review, it sounds like exploration will be like assasins creed on steroids.
All I need now is to play the demo, and if I like that, then it's a first day buy.
