Forums - Gaming - Infamous vs Prototype: Which one will be a better game? Game info included

Infamous would be better because i really think that sony'll give the money to polish this game, and i don't think activision'll do the same.

I'll be getting both, but seems inFamous has better graphs,and cooler gameplay,while Prototype seems to have interesting story and brutal gameplay..

 

I have a question for you man. What exactly is it that makes InFamous games gameplay cooler even though you stated the Prototype gameplay was brutal? I'll give you the graphics comment on Infamouses part, but the gameplay part still baffles me. Elaborate a little for me. because besides for the electricity, theres nothing the main character of InFamous can do that the character of prototype can't do.

 

Well the main character of InFamous can climb everything in the whole city (or so I've heard), and he can use his electricity powers to glide! Can Prototype's main do that? I actually don't know :P

OT: I'll be going by the developers. Sucker Punch have never made a bad game, or even a mediocre one, while Prototype is being made by Radical who have only made mediocre at best games... InFamous clear win for me!

You can climb everything as well in Prototype. In fact you climb and run walls up walls with speed. The character has super strength as well. The character in Prototype glides as well. He doesn't need electricity to do it.Screw this...just watch these videos. Please watch them both in HD.

You seem to know much about the game i didnt C in any vids yet if Proto can climb on things like telephone polls and such

does proto have a cover mechanic like Infamous does can he crouch behind things or lacth on to things

they never show evreything u want to see in game vids or previews i hate that, game devs should take it slow wen previewing a game and show everybody step by step wat u can and cant do in the game

thanx to the others i do see the lack of polish in proto comapared to imfamous but thats Y i was so bumed wen i found out about the game proto since there both pretty close to the same type of game i don't like to do reseach to find out which one is better

Eh, I guess I was wrong.

But after watching those vids I'm even more sure in that InFamous will be the better game. First of all the pace was WAY to fast, I like games where I can just chill and have fun. Maybe it's just that I'm a Sucker Punch fanboy, and the fact that I usually like to play good. :P

What's awesome in InFamous is that people will remember you, if you killed someone in a neighbour hood and come back later the people will come after you.

Prototype is definitely deeper, but it's also more likely to suck. It's a big risk.

I would say inFamous at this point, but we'll see.

He doesn't need to...he has a body shield transformation. You'll see it in the vid where the people are shooting and throwing things at the protagonist. I really can't remember the last time I saw him climb a pole, but i've seen him climb/run up buildings, fences and barriers.

they never show evreything u want to see in game vids or previews i hate that, game devs should take it slow wen previewing a game and show everybody step by step wat u can and cant do in the game

True, but with prototype, though the package is a bit scattered it was still great.

 

thanx to the others i do see the lack of polish in proto comapared to imfamous but thats Y i was so bumed wen i found out about the game proto since there both pretty close to the same type of game i don't like to do reseach to find out which one is better

I agree that the polish is lacking in Prototype, but the gameplay is vastly superior as far as attributes, damage and destruction. The polish is really on graphics and the environment in InFamous.

I like Suckerpunch too. I'm getting both games on PS3. I just wanted to see some knowledgeable answers.

That is a quite an arsenal of powers the guy in Prototype has...and it is being made by the guys that made Hulk:UD (such a fun game). I think I will have to go w/ that.
