Infamous looks more interesting to me....because its gave specifics on the guys superpowers(lightning). I don't even know what the character in Prototypes superpowers are.

I think Prototype looks cooler and has more to the gameplay. inFAMOUS will be good, but having electricity as your only weapon may get old pretty fast.

I'm more interested in infamous. I want to see the other super powers and how the citizens react to the main character. (ie: killing citizens during battle with another enemy). The devs claim the other super powers are suppose to be really nice but their keeping them hidden.

I'm likin' Prototype more at the moment. I think it's the color palette. inFAMOUS is too blue for me, or something. :lol: I dunno. I think it's more the fact that you can ASSIMILATE ANYONE in the game to get ahead. It's like John Carpenter's The Thing. You are "The Thing".

And that is f***in' EPIC.

Infamous for sure, the trailer really got me hyped at E3. Finally a sand-box game that I am actually looking forward to, one of my most wanted titles of 09.

Dang. Guess I'm in the minority with my Prototype choice. :lol: Ah well. It's not like it'll be a day one purchase for me, anyway.

I'm not that stoked about it. I just think it looks more interesting. Though, I agree. Infamous' story is quite a bit more interesting. What with the explosion and your mysterious powers.

Infamous because Sucker Punch is making it and it's exclusive and all attention goes to one platform. Besides, I think it just looks better and looks like it plays better.

Both are on my "wait and see" list.

I've not seen enough about either to get excited yet. What I have seen looks good but niether stand out just yet.

I say Prototype because Cole (inFAMOUS) seems like he would be too limited by his electricity-only powers, wheras Alex Mercer (Prototype) is just an assimilate-and-go kinda guy.

I'll buy both regardless, because they're both interesting. The fact that they're also exponentially better-looking than Crackdown is also a plus.

How can you possibly apply such a criticism to Prototype, yet not do the same for inFAMOUS? :|

because prototype looks EXACTLY the same as spiderman 2, it's amazing at first but even with the variety of ppowers it gets repetitive quickly. Infamous is different in the fact it immerses one by reducing the powers but putting all the focus on those powers and allows much more interactivity with the enviroment, not just some cheap destructable ones like in prototype. After the previews of prototype i believe it will be fun, but get repetitive fast while infamous will have more to it

Um, mission structure is exactly the same in both games, though...:|

I'm looking forward to Prototype because the guy has a lot cooler superpower than the infamous person. I mean,its cool to have electricity,but its nice to have other powers to. I think I would be interested in infamous more if the guy could control like other elements,not just one. Prototype will let you have a lot more control of what ever you want to have as a power.

and one more thing, he do sweet combo fights and make living people as a surfing board on the street! =Pof course the devastator power is massacre.This game is freakin gorey and brutal as, its a lot more chaos then infamous, you slash, u punch and kick, you kick and stab., you blow things up..its just amazing..

while infamous looks like just another superhero games, reminds me of all marvel games.youre using an electric power, and shoot em up kinda game, graphics looks good and neat, but its not a brutal hack and slash kinda type and i like hack and slash without mercy kinda game.

watch this G4 interview...

check out this video.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kGWAnSTHYrE

A much more darker game with interesting enemies, beautiful graphics, realistic movements, and more engaging storyline. Not to mention wall scaling like in assassin's creed. I mean come on...you have the ability to bind enemies with electricity, revive civilian casualties with a electric defibrillator, being able to shoot freaking electric out of your hands while hanging on to something, throw electricity bombs that blow up, and being able to tear the whole street up with bolts of lighting....im sure there are a plethora of moves also available .

and watch this prototype interview....

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PhwLI0gGEfI

....not sure about this one....but what this video shows us is a craptastic game. Boring enemies, landscape and building looks bland, main character isnt interesting, and it looks pointless........its just an ugly ugly game.

Not to metion inFAMOUS is being made by sucker punch studios 8)....and prototype is being made by the people that made...umm.. hulk :?

well each to their own. but infamous is typical superhero, saving ppl, shoot em up game, graphics too neat and clean.

i like how prototype graphics blended, dirty and smeared with blood and have more super powers. hack and slash kind of game.

both games hasnt out yet lol so cant really judge if prototype an ugly game yet, but i know its my cup of tea.

Prototype for sure.

And everyone stop judging these games so harshly already. It's completely ignorant given the fact no one has tried them out yet. All they're doing is showing you some gameplay, that doesn't mean the WHOLE game will be like that. I don't know how you can get "lame storyline, un-interesting character" from 5 minutes of gameplay videos showing off powers....

actually..if you watched the video i linked you....you have moral choices. the choices you make in the game affect the way you play the game. So you can be a hero or an anti-hero...

I'd have to say Infamous, It looks a lot cleaner, not in the gory sense, which makes Porotype look real nice, but in the sense that InFamous seems to have a purpose, where as in Prototype or atleast the few video's I've seen, it doesn't really show much of that.

I also do like the lightning power over this "Darkness" looking power.

To me, InFamous is a buy, where as Prototype, will probably be a rent, if even that.

At this point in time I'm more interested in inFamous, but I'll be getting both of them more than likely.

I think Prototype looks cooler and has more to the gameplay. inFAMOUS will be good, but having electricity as your only weapon may get old pretty fast.BioShockOwnz

But having vehicles in a driving game may get old pretty fast.

Infamous. Why? PS3 exclusive. Thereofore it's being utilized for the PS3 which will probably get a better performance, plus the concept for the powers interests me more than prototype. The controls on prototype look a bit clunky like when he runs and jumps, whereas Infamous looks more smooth.

Infamous will be much better than Prototype since it'll be an exclusive and more worked out. The graphics, gameplay and size of the game will be focused to adapt only to one console, the PS3. Prototype is coming to three other consoles i think.

I'm looking foward to both but i'm leaning towards Prototype due to the gameplay variety.

Infamous looks a lot like star wars tfu (hopefully it will do better ratings wise), but I do agree that prototype looks more clunky which gives me a bad feeling that prototype my flop. Maybe they will fix it in time.

they both are almost the same thing but one is exclusive .infamous cause it's exclusive.and i know it will take full advantage of the ps3.
