Only possible on the PS3 yet there is pop-in and framerate dips.

theres less pop in than 360 version of gta4.

frame dips arnt bad at all its nothing that takes enjoyment out of the game.

Obviously there is a lack of impartiality that cannot be debated. However I applaud any developer for making it a point to try and fully utilize the hardware when they are making an exclusive game. The reality is each consoles hardware encompasses both advantages and disadvantages. The goal should always be to play to the advantages, and avoid the disadvantages.

Speaking to the rest of the video the game looks decent enough, but it isn't as ground breaking as the developer claims. We have had Assassins Creed, Crackdown, and assorted lesser known titles that play to the exact same angle. In fact I have more terrain navigation options in the game I am currently playing. Naruto the Broken Bond. The characters can do all the same terrain navigation tricks and more.

The point being that if a second or third string game is accomplishing this flawlessly it cannot be a major feature. I felt like I was watching a tech demo for Assassins Creed all over again. Just with a modern skin. I was also a little disheartened by the notion of repulsion. The element of the dangers of gravity is one of the joys of games such as these. Determining whether you can safely make that jump is one of the real thrills.

question though. Why does everyone discredit what the DEVELOPERS of the game say? Can you program video games? Until you do, stfu. I don't care if you read an article on Wikipedia, you have no real world experience


I don't know if you agree with the OPs' statement or not, not saying you do not saying you don't. First off, by your logic the developers discredit themselves because they can't make such a bold statement about one console without hands on experience on the other. However, my next statement renders the latter one moot. I don't recall at any point in this video a time where the developers of infamous claimed their game to be only possible on the PS3. This video primarily touted the game itself and not the PS3, and at times the dev touted the ps3s' power and rightfully so, it's an amazing machine.

Great job Sucker Punch for a game that looks quite impressive. An even greater job for talking about the ease which the ps3s' power provided you in creating this game WITHOUT making a statement you simply don't have the knowledge to make. All i saw was a dev team speaking passionately and excited about their work and the hardware they made it with.



About the frame rate in infamous: It often jumps to 60.

I really want to play this game... I need a PS3 :( noone will give this poor guy moneyies though...



Nevermind, i saw it again. They fell into that absurd and idiotic trap of a statement. They've never tried a game on 360 how could they claim it cant be done on it???

To this I say:...............The man that doesnt stop talking about his big penis is the same man who worked his ass off to buy that ferrari, seeing as his 'big' penis really needed some 'enhancement'.

Small pipi man (ps3) meet your ferrari (infamous)...errr, or your honda, infamous is no ferrari...but on the bright side sucker punch, it's the thought that counts :-p .....I'm sure sony will understand.

WTF are you talking about?  Oh... yeah I installed it... forgot about the pop-in, but it's hardly worth noting anymore than it is in inFamous

OoOoOoo, would that be the blu ray disk thats a pain in sonys' pootang and a a gaping butthole in their wallet?????? hmmmm??? Believe, sony would love your positive attitude towards their 'beloved' blu ray since they absolutely dont!!!!

Funny how they felt the need to include such a risky new technology despite it sky rocketing their profit margin to high heaven! Perhaps sony felt they needed to.....'make-up for some lacking 'areas'?????? IDK..........yhuu tehll me mister megacompadre
