Getting back onto topic...

I find that playstation reviewers are rating the game higher then 360 reviewers... Even though the game seems to be the same or very close to the same on both platforms...

I think the main reason is Crackdown set the standard on 360 for this type of game and on the PS, reviewers are reviewing it within the context of inFamous setting the standard. I haven't played inFamous yet, but I have played Crackdown.

I feel that Prototype adds stuff Crackdown didn't but it is two years later and so they should've been able to do that. If I was a reviewer I would have a hard time giving Prototype a much higher score then Crackdown. Hence why it is hovering at near Crackdown numbers by 360 reviewers.

From what I have read inFamous is just a different take on the same type of game so depending on your preferences you will like one, the other, or both. That is why you are seeing PS reviewers give it similar numbers to inFamous.

That doesn't mean either console is better then the other... It just means they are being held to different standards for comparison. Personally I like Prototype and Crackdown a lot... I will also get inFamous as well because it looks great to... The way I see it gamers can't lose on these three games.

I think you need a "so far". Because the game is at Infamous levels while it only has 14 reviews while Infamous slowly trickled down and settled at 85. Prototype has gone down like a brick and I predict it going down quite a bit more actually.

I agree... it may continue to fall on both the 360 and PS3 side.  But, I think it is being compared to the first party exclusives on both sides and I think that is why we are seeing descrepencies in the reviews for each.
