So Infamous is a flop: why did Sucker Punch fail?

I quietly watched Infamous SS closely and told myself I wouldn't be surprised if it got an 8...

I won't claim that I can prove that anywhere, but it turned out to be a hollow adventure it seems. It's sad that people bash Nintendo for "playing it safe", and most reviews are saying Infamous SS plays it safe, haha

So an Infamous game plays like an Infamous game? How horrible. It's the 3rd game in the series, that isn't the time for any massive changes or evolutions. It should be a refinement of the formula which is exactly what the game is. 

That's terribly convenient if Sony fans are perfectly okay with rehashes...  I hope you're not the same kind of guy bashing Nintendo for "rehashes", despite them showing far more creativity and change in their series than any other studio in the world, and then turning around and abolishing Sony of any responsibility of doing the same...

I think the reviews of the game fairly reflect that Sony's two first party titles aren't really doing anything different (KZ:SF and Infamous SS).  Sony needs to stop putting money into eyecandy and put money into creativity!
