inFAMOUS PS3
 
A massive explosion rips through six square blocks of Empire City, leveling everything and everyone in its path. At the center of the blast crater a lone man has survived the event and has been changed forever. From the creators of the award-winning Sly Cooper series, Sucker Punch brings you inFamous, the first open-world action-adventure title exclusively for the PlayStation 3 system.

Players will experience what happens when a real person suddenly starts developing super powers. Will they exact revenge, protect the innocent or do little of both? These are the situations gamers will face when immersed inside a richly interactive and organic living city. A place where actions create broader reactions in the citizens and landscape around them. inFamous lets players unravel an evolving mystery, experience fame and/or infamy and battle powerful, iconic villains…all the while feeling what it is like to become a modern day superhero.

Anybody heard of this game?
I played the demo yesterday, and it was really good.

#BROKEN Hasney 06-03-2009 11:47 AM

It's pretty goo, but a store had a demo station with Prototype on it not so long ago. Look out for that, it will blow this out of the water :D Make sure you complete this in about 3 months ready for when Prototype drops.

Fignuts 06-03-2009 11:56 AM

3 months? Was just browsing through Playstation Magazine and they said June.

Fignuts 06-03-2009 11:57 AM

Also yeah, totally indifferent to this, with prototype on the way.

#BROKEN Hasney 06-03-2009 11:59 AM

Prototypes in June??

#BROKEN Hasney 06-03-2009 11:59 AM

Wait, shit, I've been reading American dates. It drops next week.

Thank you for making my day Fignuts

It's been selling really well, I would imagine. We almost ran out of copies a few times at my Best Buy, which rarely runs out of anything gaming-wise.

UmbrellaCorporation 06-03-2009 12:37 PM

This game is amazing.

I seriously hope Prototype can hold a candle to it, honestly. Not that I don't think it can, but Prototype has to follow this act now.

Penner 06-03-2009 04:02 PM

This is not a prototype thread.

Vietnamese Crippler 06-03-2009 04:05 PM

Well, it is now because there already is an inFamous thread: http://www.tpww.net/forums/showthread.php?t=90212

Prototype does look pretty slick to be honest.

Penner 06-03-2009 04:08 PM

noooo!

Kane Knight 06-03-2009 05:14 PM

Nope. Never heard of it.

#BROKEN Hasney 06-05-2009 07:07 AM

As this is the official Prototype thread, I would like to point out that I now have Prototype.

Have you played Hulk for the original XBox? Remember how fun it was but had a few flaws? Well, it's the same game, with the flaws fixed. Loving it.

If you're lying, I will tear your head off and rape your neck stump.

Or not...Depends on whether I feel disappointed.

#BROKEN Hasney 06-05-2009 12:51 PM

Nope, Torrents are available :heart:

Fignuts 06-05-2009 02:53 PM

omgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgprototype

Cannot wait for it.

Also, just bought infamous today, as it seems to be getting stellar reviews everywhere I look. Won't get to play it til tonight tho.

I don't bother with torrents, but I know they're out there.

Fignuts 06-05-2009 03:26 PM

Yeah, hulk was great, but there seems to be a lot more really cool stuff in prototype, like assuming someone else's identity, and in turn, aquiring that person's abilities.

D Mac 06-05-2009 03:34 PM

So in this game you're more then famous? Because according to the 3 Amigos, you're not just famous, your INfamous.

Fignuts 06-05-2009 03:35 PM

This is not the infamous thread anymore, d-mac. There is already an infamous thread further down.

Try and keep up.

D Mac 06-05-2009 03:37 PM

Had to put that 3 Amigos shit in there. Love that movie.

Fignuts 06-05-2009 03:48 PM

I want to spend the money to rent a good costume with two other people for Halloween. Would be awesome.

Although it would cut into the savings toward the good replica darth vader costume that I want to go grocery shopping and play golf in.

Exactly, Hulk had limitations because you were the Hulk, you could only do what the Hulk could do. But because this is fresh, new IP, they can take it in any direction they like.

My only two complaints so far are that disguises work too well, they say that there's an enemy nearby and pointing at me, but they don't shoot nor does the little yellow stealth bar fill, but that might change later on and I can't seem to get out of a tank, I have to let it get blown up, but that might just be me not working out how to yet.

ClockShot 06-05-2009 05:21 PM

Hasney, you get this for PC?

#BROKEN Hasney 06-05-2009 05:22 PM

Nah, 360

ClockShot 06-05-2009 05:25 PM

Interesting. Here stateside, Gamestop has the PC version already available immediate shipping. 360 and PS3 gotta wait till next week. Of course it could be an error on their part.

Maybe I'll call my store to double check.

He downloaded it. Illegally.

UmbrellaCorporation 06-10-2009 05:16 PM

Prototype is amazing. That is all.

Well..it's not all. Because I love Infamous too. And although I feel like a dirty whore for it, both games are amazing.

If I had to choose one? Prototype, by a hair...but not a short hair. A long one. But it's not exponentially better. It's just that I loved Hulk: Ultimate Destruction, and I am MAJORLY getting flashes of it from Prototype.

Fignuts 06-10-2009 09:49 PM

Yeah, reaching force of nature level power in infamous, and it is ridiculous fun. Gonna wait til I beat it one time, before I get Prototype.

Kane Knight 06-11-2009 01:26 AM

Prototype shipped today. AWSOME.

#BROKEN Hasney 06-11-2009 04:30 PM

Just did a flying elbow drop off a skyscraper onto a tank. Fucking EPIC.

Fignuts 06-12-2009 12:53 AM

7.5 at IGN.

Ouch.
Biggest complaints, are repetitive, and unoriginal side missions, and poor visuals.

Will be getting this next week regardless, as it is still a fun game.

Kane Knight 06-12-2009 07:35 PM

Fuck IGN, this game is incredible.

Kane Knight 06-12-2009 07:51 PM

My only complaints so far are pretty minor. When doing one of the "boss fights," the baddies basically kept cornering me and wailing on me.I was rolling, jumping, and running to no effect.

Target lock can also be a complete bitch. In that same fight, there are six tanks you can blow, and you're supposed to. But it was locking onto the tanks when I was nowhere near them and being swarmed by bad guys. Then, when I got a grenade launcher, and I can't lock on to the tanks for the life of me.

Weapons generally suck, but that's hardly the point of the game.

The sheer badassery and upgradability are awesome.

Vietnamese Crippler 06-12-2009 08:37 PM

7.5 is not a bad score by any means.

Although, I do have to agree about the bit with the terrible draw distance.

The game is certainly not without flaw, but especially after their glowing review of the more limited inFAMOUS (And yes, I still like the game, it's still awesome, but it's more feature limited), this game is being undersold by IGN.

Though they are still within a point of average (Average being about 8.4 on Gamerankings.com), so it's not like they are completely off base.

#BROKEN Hasney 06-13-2009 02:20 PM

The best review I've seen was actually a one-liner on somethingawful

http://i.somethingawful.com/mjolnir/...a-icon-360.gif Prototype
If you're slowing down long enough to find something to bitch about, you're not playing the right game. 9/10

ClockShot 06-13-2009 07:12 PM

I got bad luck grabbing games for my PC.

Picked it up last night and installed this morning, can't go 2 minutes without crashing. :'( Yet a few of my other titles run great.

road doggy dogg 07-01-2009 12:21 AM

I played Prototype tonight at a buddy's house, fucking ridiculous game. Kinda wanna buy a 360 just to play this. :'(

Sepholio 07-08-2009 08:08 AM

Both games are good, but Infamous is better. Infamous is just too fucking epic.
