Normally sandbox games aren't my thing but Infamous clearly changed my opinion. It tells the story of Cole whom is a regular guy that is suddenly given great power at the cost of extreme turmoil. Of course the morality system has been done before but this takes it to the next level. Not only are your story choice actions weighed but how you fight can change your karmic affinity as well. On top of that, your karma effects how you can upgrade your powers and which powers are available to you. This changes the tactics you use to take foes down. I do have a few grievances with this game but my only major one is the citizen AI. When fights break out, most run around or across the battlefield instead of running away from it. It's even common for them to huddle within 3 feet of your opponents. This makes following the good path hard because they often get within line-of-sight of enemies and harming them gives evil karma. Most of the time, there's no way to avoid injuring them which I find very frustrating. All-in-all, I would say this is a great addition for anyone's game library. It has a good story, great action and a believable cast of characters. I'm still in the process of playing it too so it also has a good length. I look forward to seeing what Sucker Punch does in the coming future.Read full review
Really great game overall. It rolls features of some of my favorite games into one. It has the parkour-inspired, building wall-crawling, roof-jumping fun of Assassins creed, along with some amazing bonuses that AC doesn't have. It has similar powers and abilities seen in Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. Which is a lot of fun. The story lets you be good or evil, like Fable or KOTOR. It has a very open-ended, exploration friendly world that is extremely detailed. I mean, the detail is incredible. Its very gritty, grungy and full of interesting buildings and areas to explore. I highly recommend this game to anyone who is a fan of any of the games mentioned in my review. The bad is that it can be a bit buggy at times, and can also become a bit repetitive if played for long periods of time. However, I personally like to sip on this game in small doses and savor it.Read full review
First-off, I note that I generally am not a big fan of the Sandbox games. GTA series bored me after 10 hours of playing. Though Assassin's Creed kept me interested enough to play through, the repetition made it a chore towards the end. Infamous got a little repetitive, but never enough to make the game a chore. Maybe I'm still a kid at heart, but I just found rail-sliding and gliding across the city roof-tops fun even if without a purpose. Pros: 1. Fun!! Especially once you get the rail-slide and gliding abilities!! 2. Good Story, and worth a second play-through (one good, one evil) 3. Never frustrating - great intuitive gameplay mechanics. Fighting, wall climbing, gliding, jumping, and landing are all easy intuitive enough to pick-up and play out of the box. Cons: 1. A little too repetitive in the side missions, and enemy types. (Though that is really my complaint with all "sandbox" and free-roam games.) 2. Mediocre next-gen graphics. Good, but no where near Assassin's creed, but about as good as GTA 4. 3. Evil/Good affects some missions, and your powers, but whether you are a Tyrant or a Hero should have affected the story more, which for the most part remains unchanged whether you are hero or villain. All-in-all this was very good and fun game....just short of 5/5, because the lack of variety in the mission/enemies.Read full review
Now here's a game like gta without all the filth a 5th grader would learn for the first time. It has the same playing scheme but now instead of a mob boss you get to be one of the greatest, better yet, infamous super hero. Equipped with a varied of skills, as the game progresses, you get to choose your path of good or evil. The quicker you decide the better. It really doesn't matter too much because to get a platinum trophy, a minimum of 2 play throughs is required. So you'll get the chance to find out all the possibilities of the game. It is also a great game of expression, there really is no right way to defeat your opponents, just whatever works best, however, so methods are more effective more variable situations.
This game is so fun to play, you don't want to stop. The fact that good or bad deeds influence the direction of the storyline and what happens in the game is just awesome and adds real replay value to the game. I gave this a Good rating because toward the end of the game, the side missions become a bit monotonous and predictable. Also, the controls/camera angles can be frustrating at times. The great thing about the main character being able to grab/stick to just about anything, can be a downfall at the same time, when you just want to move or drop from buildings fast. The game does a great job of making you feel like a real superhero/villain. Great gameplay, pretty decent story will keep you playing for hours, which is another plus - this isn't an 8 hour game. This is one of the best PS3 games that gives you bang for your buck.Read full review
