Damn spoilers. I'm far from half way through of the first game.

So far I am disappointed with Infamous. It looked much better in the videos and everyone promised it would be a superb game. The missions are so banal, the story and presentation is stupid and there's a ton of other things I don't like. It's not much better than Crackdown. I like to play with electricity though.

Dont ever compare InFamous with Crackdown. Crackdown is a half-assed GTA with zombies. InFamous is a superhero game with multiple powers and a variety of amazingly created bosses. Crackdown is a sandbox shoot em up which actually isn't even as good as GTA as well.

Well for me Infamous is a half-assed Assassin's Creed with electricity. And I mean the first Assassin's Creed (which is a very good game though).

I'm half through the 2nd island and so far the game has been a pain to play and not much fun at all.

The core gameplay mechanic is solid with the vertical movement controls and the electricity attacks. But the rest. The story and setting is, well it's just plain bad. It doesn't engage me the least and the presentation is cheap (the comics of say Dante's Inferno, that's how you do comic type cut-scenes). And the missions are even more repetitive than Assassin's Creed 1. Kill, fetch or race in its simplest form.

Enemy variation is horrible. I am so sick of reapers and their counterpart on the 2nd island. And I absolutely hate the game's "dungeons", those awful ugly sewers where you have to jump a frustrating repetitive course just to put the power on for every city block.

And finally even the graphics are poor.
