I would take it as a joke if the guy was joking, but he's taking obvious potshots at the game.
Water boundaries, walls, upgrades. You guys are so naive if you think this author, who also made a very serious attempt at explaining that acheivements are better than trophies, is just making fun.

Just because he's having fun doing it doesn't mean it's joking. Maybe I should find a list showing how 360 is better than ps3 because it's a space heater and noise canceling device. If you don't find it funny, then you must be a lame fanboy with no sense of humor.

I actually laughed out loud at the bolded part.  Also at the article.  Please calm down, if anything that article was making fun of Xbox fanboys as much as inFamous.

I kinda did too lol.  Seriously people need to calm down and take a joke : 

If anything this thread proves is why people need to get over it if someone makes fun of one of your favorite games, hell people make fun of Earthbound and I play along :P 

The guy obviously writes satire directed at fanboys, more specifically the Sony fanboys that seem to lack a sense of humor.  Make fun of master chief only a few people care, make fun or Mario only a few people actually care, make fun of Kratos and you better get ready for war :P

It's all in jest and that's what it should be taken as.

well then prepare for both 360 and wii lists in the future I have plenty of jokes if you guys say you can handle them.

Lol, I liked this. A little like Penny Arcade.

My favourite is number 9 though. Completely random. "The head of Sucker Punch is racist. Probably"

@sony fans: Come on! We're meant to have the thickest skin, and the best sense of humour!

@kantor
I suppose you're right. I'm going to start being more jokey from now on.

The problem is when you joke on the 360 you get banned. :P

I found the article funny since it seems to be coming from an XBOT. 12 year old Fanboys do tend to sound like this. :D

From the killzone article .. linked in a post above.

"Killzone 2 launched exclusively for the PlayStation 3 this Friday, generating much bias from biased people who are biased. It also sold quite a few copies and has been setting the PlayStation Network afire with grenade spam and shotgun rampages. It is a great game.

It is also blatantly better than Halo 3.

Because one good thing cannot exist in this world without something else being absolutely rubbish, we present our concise and thoughtful argument explaining exactly how Killzone 2 is blatantly better than Halo 3."

360 fans are good, too. The really sensitive ones are the Wii fans- make an anti-Wii joke and you'll get flamed for six pages.

Maybe it's because there is so much genuine Wii trolling.

Obviously what we're looking at is an article written by an xbot. The article is utterly stupid, especially when he mentioned final fantasy XIII going to the xbox 360. Prototype is better because final fantasy XIII is on xbox 360? What does final fantasy XIII have to do with either prototype or infamous? People can write trash on the internet. Especially when you're in a position of writing so called "official" articles for a website you're working for. Like that xbot who write this dumb article. We must be coming into the age of stupidity of gamer culture.

If anything, prototype is average and infamous is the better game.

Prototype:
1UP.com: B-
Game Revolution: C+
IGN: 7.5/10
VideoGamer.com: 7/10

Infamous:
1UP.com: A-
Eurogamer: 7/10 (biased)
Game Informer: 9/10
GameSpot: 9.0/10
GameTrailers: 9.0/10
IGN: 9.2/10

I certainly hope the author was joking.
