I am hoping its fantastic, just as I hope Prototype is fantastic. Crackdown is one of my favorite games this generation. Anymore that are like it at just as good is good with me. I'll say a 88% ranking.

Metascore: 88-93

IGN score: 9+

First week: 400k

Lifetime: 2 million.

Metascore will be around 80-85

FW will be around 300k-350k

LT will be around 1.5m-2m

I think people are really lowballing the reviews. inFamous looks outstanding, all of the previews have been glowing. I can't see it getting much lower than 90 on Metacritic.

IGN, GamePro, and GameSpot are really the most important reviews. Even if they aren't always the most consistent with their reviews. Those are the ones that matter most.

Metacritic? They take into account reviews from joe nobody's website. Hence, if 9 credible sourcse rate a game 95/100, but 1 joe nobody rates it a 60/100 that will drastically lower the rating.

I can't believe anyone takes that rating system seriously.

Reviews - 83%

First week - 175k

Lifetime - 800k - 1000k

Ratings: late 80's, MAYBE 90.
First week: I have no idea about this, hmm around 250k?
Lifetime: 1-1.5m

I don't see this game selling less than Ratchet and Clank TBH.

Yes, I know R&C is a well known franchise. But it's kind of stale these days and appeals mostly to a younger audience.

INFAMOUS is a fresh new franchise and appeals to users of all ages.

 I agree

First Week - 220 - 280K
LTD - 1.2-1.5M
Meta - 85+
