Infamous (by Sucker Punch) PS3

Re: Infamous (by Sucker Punch) PS3

From what I've read about Prototype I think the games are more different than what everyone is saying. I know both games have missions and are open with comic book like heroes but Prototype is more of a bad *** carnage game from what I've read (rated M actually). It's got shapeshifter abilities as well as guns and appears to be more of a button masher from what I've read.

I'm sure many will like both but my money is on inFamous right now. Will Prototype have a demo out on the PSN?

Here is a nice comparison of the two games.

I agree I just think its more innovative than inFamous in all that you do.

not frustrating at all but just the irritation on continually getting sniped with about 99% accuracy from unseen enemies from random rooftops, even when they're out of your range of shot. No matter how much you run or lunge you still get hit... unless you find cover that isnt also being riddled with enemy fire from the other side they'll get you

That should be interesting........its like they require stealth in a way, but don't?

Re: Infamous (by Sucker Punch) PS3

There is no real stealth in this game. If youre walking around the streets alot expect to get shot at or shot up and die sometimes too. It happens on rooftops as well but you can run away sometimes to fire back.

You dont start off with all of the powers either so you have to work your way up there.

Listening to the IGN Beyond Podcast, and they recommended to not upgrade any of Cole's lightning powers at first, but to upgrade his damage resistance, otherwise they've found they were dying a lot in the first half of the game.

I agree with that, but i ended up racking up alot of points first about 8000 then upgraded a ton of stuff at once. The body damage and ability to recharge from something like a car or light pole faster are two terrific things to upgrade

I got this feeling from the demo, just learning the controls and everything it was kinda tough at points cause I'd have no clue where the enemy was sniping me from and I'd die. I think with me it was more comfort with controls and cover, but upgrading health never hurts.

Its more of an upgrade on how much he can take which reduces the damage. The health can be regenerated fast by draining power from a car, a person, a litght pole, generator, tv, etc....

Its kinda cool they let you do that but the sniping thing is kinda unfair at points in the game... and that part in the demo when you get to the game is tough where you have to protect the medical supplies on that one spot.

23, I see what you're talking about with the snipers but I really haven't found it to be much of a problem. Like I said, I am seriously loving this game so far.

Re: Infamous (by Sucker Punch) PS3

Yeah, I played for about 3 hours and I'm loving it too. I'm seriously impressed with how well this game controls. I guess I shouldn't be surprised since the Sly Cooper games controlled so well, but inFamous is an open-world game, and I haven't played another that controls as fluid. Totally feels like a polished third-person shooter combined with Sly Cooper. Bravo Sucker Punch.

Does anyone know the amount of gameplay time it has? Just curious before I decide to buy it.

The IGN review said it took him 25 hours to do both the good and the evil. There are 100 missions - 70 neutral, 15 hero and 15 villain.

That's cool. Wanted to make sure it wasn't another under 10 or even 5 hour games.

I'm sure someone here will finish it sooner or later. The game time also changes depending on how many side missions you choose to do. I haven't read anything about the game being too short though. Looking forward to playing once I get the kids to bed.
