Its one of those "wierd" coencidences of gaming. Like the fact the PS3 is purposely built with a convex design to hinder any other appliance from sitting on top of it. This automatically makes it a center piece in any living room. Oddly enough, the 360 was built with a concave design :P(ish)

I think SP and Activision started relatively at the same time(at least as far as anounced) hard to say which came first.

Wiki has Infamous announced on July 11,2007
Prototype was announced...wiki doesnt say. But I am attempting to trace back to the eldest trailer for the game. The farthest I have seen is August 21st, 2007

Prototype has been in production forever... like... 2005 or something and they had the idea for longer.

If you don't think these production guys don't know what each other are making your crazy.

Especially when it's their own idea and they're totally geeked about it.

 

 

 

Link? and how do we know that SuckerPunch wasn't working on IF for many years earlier as well? I mean, the last game they came out with was a sly game. It could have been started right after the last one or soon after(as they only work on one game at a time, what else would they be doing for so many years?).

 

And I am pretty sure developers know what other developers are doing too, hence the "wierd" in quotes.

inFamous sounds a lot more varied, rather than *shapeshift* *slash* etc.

There are moral choices which affect the story, your appearance, the city, and the attitudes of the people around you. The graphics are better. The story itself seems more interesting.

I'm not saying Prototype is bad, but really, I'm not thinking about buying it, while inFamous I will purchase on opening week.

Definetly InFamous due to the fact that it reminds me of Fable.

Since I am excited and hyped for both and I am a ps3 owner. I have the luxury of owning both games. A win win for me.

I think this is a really good trailer depicting what Prototype will be. It actually makes me a little more interested........

 

That trailer is freaking awesome! Nice find.

Honestly both are going to be first day buys but I'm more interested in inFamous because of the dev.

"In video game terms, RPGs are games that involve a form of separate battles taking place with a specialized battle system and the use of a system that increases your power through a form of points.

Sure, what you say is the definition, but the connotation of RPGs is what they are in video games." - dtewi

I hate all sandbox games, but I'll give Infamous a rent and wait for prototype reviews. I doubt I'll like either though...

I don't know about Prototype, but the moral decision aspect to inFAMOUS has me watching it.


You do have to enjoy that someone finally... after like 10 years of bitching got that not every moral choice has to be "Save the burning bus of nuns or murder a puppy."

Of course, you could also save a burning bus of puppies, or murder a nun...

It's in one of those interviews on gametrailers.  Way to many for me to comb through them all again.  Thought you'd been keeping up with the game?
