Im i the only one who liked Prototype more? :(


I played Infamous for only an hour and I can already tell it was a quality game. But I know I'd like prototype more when it comes to personal preferences. Its more apporachable, gets to the good stuff faster and is initially more fun to play. I have a feeling Infamous is more rewarding down the road tho...

I found found prototype 10X more fun to play than GTA4. GTA4 beats it in production and variety though...

I think it is good that inFamous has sold so well, i mean it is on the most expensive console, it is a new IP and also it was released in the slowest time of the year so almost 500k (when the US numbers come in) is pretty impressive for only 3 weeks on sale!

This should be a million seller within 10 weeks i think

NO WAY!!!!!!!! it will take atleast 25 weeks to reach a million. u don't know the normal progression of the game sales.. and it will reach around 1.5 - 1.7 after the end of holidays

Thats if it has any legs. It could top off at 700k.

I was a bit surprised to see the sales numbers, but VGC's sales numbers have inFAMOUS selling more?  Anyone else want to discuss this?  I will say inFAMOUS is a masterpiece, but it seemed like Prototype had a geater buzz.

What are you talking about?

inFamous firts week in Europe - 79,068

Prototype first week in Europe - 67,300 XBOX 360 + 63,639 PS3 = 130939

 

Well you can't really compare total multiplat sales vs one console. So, and i believe you know this aswell, what he ment was sales separately on each platform.

It's not really that big of a shocker

InFamous is the fastest selling new PS3 IP.

Same sh*t different cover.

GTA hasn't changed anything groundbreaking since GTA3.

you are looking at the wrong week, Prototype numbers in NA hasn't been posted yet.

My fault for not clicking through to the actual game page, and just the search results.  Someone had posted that inFAMOUS outsold Prototype on here, and I posted to confirm.  I also figured I wanted to post how brilliant inFAMOUS is, so I decided to do a sales thread asking about it.
