OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG ME TOO.

But really, this game is amazing.

Been playing this game nonstop since I got it on Tuesday.

Already finished the first island and I'm about 70% through the second island.

Just played some more tonight. It is pretty fun... I like the "taking back the city" aspect. Still, it could have done more to sepatate itself from being a knock off of the Spider-Man games, and to fix the bugs (one in every five bad guys I kill sticks in the scenery and has a seizure).

Coming from "TheSteve" this is actually a raving review. Now you all know tha inFamous is the shit.

Sorry but yes it kicks the crap out of Oblivion with guns. In every category. Most notably fun factor. And being good/evil actually changes every aspect of the game. Not just "I just nuked a town now my dad might be upset with me for like literally 15 seconds".

I could go on and on and on about why inFamous is better then Fallout 3 (btw I have the PC version of it).


You're hilarious, Ive seen nothing you say can be taken seriously. Are you an alt account? Or how about taking off those fanboy glasses for a change.

 

I own both games? Do you? For some reason I doubt.

 

This is how I am able to objectively compare the two. It's not magic or X-Ray vision or glasses or whatever. Just My opinion.

Metacritic:

Infamous - 85%

Fallout 3 - 93%

If the roles were reversed, Infamous was multiplatform while Fallout 3 was PS3 xclusive, u'd be bashing Infamous as a Crackdown-clone while praising Fallout 3 as one of the truly greatest sand-box games of all time.

Nope. Infamous is just really good. I actually enjoyed Oblivion more then Fallout 3. And I can even admit that Mass Effect is a little better then inFamous.. But not by much. It's up there with the best this gen. I judge games after I have actually played them. Not just hype or Metacritic reviews score which has been horribly skewed by haterfanboy.net.

lol, oh come on, man.  I own and have played all those games as well...  inFAMOUS is a fun take on the Spider-Man: Web of Shadows idea with a generic hero and city, but it's nothing special.  Even if RPGs aren't your thing, you would have to be pretty biased to not count those AAA titles as superior to this derivitive but entertaining distraction.  I'm enjoying it, but it's NOT a "great" game.  It's not even the best game I've bought this month.

My PS3 has died. It froze 4 times in inFamous and now the system won't start up 90% of the time and when it does it gos crazy in 3 min or less. Tried to save my save file in one of those under 3 min moments but it was no good. I was hoping to not have to restart the game until I finished it on good. Now it seems I'll have to start again. I agree though I love this game. Wouldn't be on here if I could still be playing it but I guess I'll have to wait after forking over $162

The game's pretty buggy, even for a sandbox game (they tend to glitch out a lot),  I got stuck to a car that was passing by earlier, and had to quit the game and restart, and an enemy that fell off the roof started breackdancing in some scaffolding and turned me into a blue light frame.  Reminds me of GTAIII.

What kind of games do you like?


Reasonable response right out of the gate...  kudos.

Advice: try the demo of both.  I didn't like RE5 at first, but the co-op hooked me.  inFAMOUS had me pumped, and I've cooled to it a bit.  You really need to try them and see what grabs you.

@axumblade: Is that Cole in your av, or Galen from The Force Unleashed? inFAMOUS reminds me of a mash-up of TFU and Web of Shadows.
