Not enough.


You're very critcal of Sony titles arent you? Especially underrated ones which could've done better. This just might be the moment of redemption for InFamous.

A fairly undeserved redemption. It does nothing different or better than the previous games.

I can see the unsold copies of Infamous 2 going "THE FUCK!" if this sells significantly better.


 There is a lot about InFamous that is being kept from us. We'll find out mmore later, There is also a lot that has been done to the physics, Ai and particle system so for you to not see anything is quite ridiculous.  Just because you cannot see what is special about something, doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Remember that.

Nothing they showed so far changes the formular in a significant way. It's the same gameplay we've seen in the past. There may be more but the stuff that we don't know about the game isn't selling it right now. The hype comes from the trailers, which show the exact gameplay like the previous games. The only difference is that it is better marketed and on a system that doesn't have much else on it.

But I sound too negative again. Of course I hope it will sell more. It won't be enough copies though. So it's undeserved in both ways. It will sell more than the predecessors for the wrong reasons and it will sell less than an Infamous game should sell for other reasons.


Neon and smoke powers were not possible last gen in the way which they will be used this gen. Because of the power of the PS4 they have more power to use more effects and things. The story will be more immersive because of the character models being extremely close if not the same as the cinematics. The transporting on the game is freaking amazing. Every power works differently.  It looks great. For such a next gen title there have to be more powers to use. Fetch couldn't be the only person in the game with powers that Delsin talks to. This is what I am talking about. In InFamous the majority of the characters I spoke to in the game werent even advertised.

That's all superficial and also subjective. A few more pixels and particles don't change the game. Are you David Cage? And the way of getting around will be worse because no power line grinding.


We don't know if there wont be any powerline grinding.  Most of your distate for the game is based on your own subjective taste and I leave you with that. You don't need to see what I see nor what many others will see in this game.



I'll go with 3M.



My 8th gen collection

I don't know why people bother with the views that ads generate. I mean, millions of people see ads on tv all the time, but you don't see anyone calling them viral. Imo, if you only watched something because you had to see it before watching what you actually set out to watch, then it doesn't count.

Not to take anything away from Infamous, of course. The game looks positively...super. 8D

I can't see what hasn't been announced yet. You apparently can.

Also there is no distaste for the game.Well at least not in a significant way. It's already preordered for some time. My distaste is for people claiming the game to be revolutional when it's basically the same with prettier pixels and more advertising.

It's good that they didn't change the formular and it's only natural that it can't be as good as Infamous 2.

And we all know how that turned out. 1mill sales so far

Which was a big shame if you ask me, but anyway that is 3.7 million views... since September.  InFAMOUS has 3.6 million views... in a week.

I think InFAMOUS is going to have higher attach rate thanks to the timing.  It has the spotlight.
