My bro just got the game from GameFly and I have played quite a bit of it. The game is very fun. I do have to disagree with the story, I'm not that far but so far it makes no sense to me. The Web of Intrigue was a nice concept but it need to be done with a story that actually makes sense. Yeah, I am being a little harsh and haven't gotten that far. I am just giving my impressions. Even so, I am liking the gameplay which is fun if a little unwieldy. I can safely say though that inFamous is the more polished of the two games as I played and just beated it today.

It's not going to make sense early on... I mean... think of what the web of intrigue is... it's revealing the story through different memory flashbacks.

It's like in an anime or JRPG where the main character has amnesia.  The flashbacks rarely make any sense until towards the end of the game.

There had to be more cons then that.... an 8.5 for bad scenary and somewhat fiddley controls?


maybe that it just really wasn't that fun to have a higher score for the reviewer.

That would be what we call a "Con".

Cons
Bad scenary
Bad controls
The game was fun... but it wasn't really that fun.

Yeah makes sense right?

After playing InFamous and Prototype, I have to give the edge to Prototype. I was more focused on how awesome the game was, rather than focusing on the graphics like IGN was bitching about.

I had the pleasure of playing Infamous at a freinds place last night. These 2 games are nothing alike...

Who ever was the first to start comparing these 2 games needs to be taken to some back alley and shot...

I can vouche for Prototype, the game is great, and from the hour or so I played infamous for, that game is great as well. Infamous seems like it will be more rewarding down the road, but Protoype is more fun of the bat.

LOL... IGN said that infamous had visual glitches but it wasn't enough to take away how awesome the game is. You might be able to blame this one on different reviewers.
