The same thing happened when Infamous 2 came out. People screamed flop and it got a slightly lower Metacritic score than the first game. All that is happening here is Infamous 1 set the bar for the series so high, that the HYPE train is out of control. Like the first 2 Infamous games, I am sure this one will be great also. Titanfall is excellent too. Neither of these games are flops and they will both sell extremely well.
