    when this was first announced it looked incredible, and also as a crazh free-roam fan, it looked really awesome. However i have no idea what to think of this. Why does this reviewer occasionally say some words in an American accent?

    I think I am going to get infamous, I was waiting for this game but It didn't quit met my expectations. I mean I was expecting something awesome, yes it's a good game but nothing mind-blowing (unlike the trailer )

    in fact,it should get a 9.0 or a 9.5.

    Justin Calvert made the game sound like it got a 9.0[maybe a 9.5]

    I would disagree that this game is better then inFamous. I just couldn't get into this one after being spoiled Although fun to cause chaos, it ended up reminding me of Assassins Creed 2, in that you just go from point a to point b over and over and theres not much to do nor to look at as you go

    Infamous is better

    @mad_krips - good points you have made.
    About testers not doing their job properly and the game being buggy as hell. True in some aspects. I am a developer by the way (on a different game) Some testers do not do their job properly, they are not bothered coz their pay is low and some are rubbish at testing.
    On the other side some testers do their job well and will point out the bugs but if the bug is not severe enough to like crash the game the bug goes as a low priority and we will fix this if we have time before the game goes out.
    We need to stick to a deadline to get the game out on time so a lot of low priority bugs which are not severe enough make it through when the game goes out.
    Now if lots of people complain enough about certain bugs then it gets fixed as a patch
    This is the kinds of rules game developers have to follow when working for a game studio.

    8.5 is justified, and 8.5 is what inFamous should have gotten too. Both are similar in many ways but are still different enough for me to say I had more fun with Prototype. infamous may have better graphics but its buggy as hell the game testers did NOT do their job very well before putting this out. Prototype is at time FRUSTRATINGLY DIFFICULT even on normal. Simple boss fight may take an hour or more because half the time you'll spend running away searching for health or waiting to regenerate it.

    But honestly I liked Prototype more because I could hijack military vehicles. move around the city MUCH faster, use guns if I wanted to, and my favorite, hack and slash thru everything. Prototype is a brawler and can be a shooter if u want, inFamous is just a shooter.

    wolfR60 Posted Sep 1, 2009 2:22 am GMT (hide) InFamous it's not better, it's a terrible game OK? C'mon Xbox 360 has Gears of War 2, Fable 2 and... Do I have to say more? OK, Forza 3. Then everybody knows X360 is better Ps3!

    those are good exclusives? hahahahahaha
    ok
    now go and see ps3 exclusives

    pd: infamous better graphics, grate story, full of action.

    the game is awesome, although the only bad thing is when ur flying a helicopter theres a bit of lag in the loading of the layout
    But is still an awsome game and would recommend to heaps of people
