InFamous is getting a lot of attention this week. We learned the other day that the soundtrack will be available on PSN in May and there's also a behind-the-scenes sneak peek to check out later today in this month's issue of Qore. If you don't have a subscription to Qore, don't worry, you can still watch some gameplay footage right here (for free!). This new video clip takes us through the mean streets of Empire City, showing off a mission that has you taking out armored buses. Needless to say, there's a lot of carnage going on. Don't miss our latest hands-on preview for more on InFamous.
[Thanks, Rodrigo!]

Probably shouldn't say this but Prototype has nothing on Infamous. After seeing the ten reasons to Prototype, I am defiantly leaning more towards Infamous. Prototype looks sloppily done and looks like it could get old real fast even with all the violence and gore.

not to downplay prototype but it looks like it'll get boring/repetitive real fast for the simple fact that your TOO DAMN STRONG. It doesn't seem like anyone in that game can stop you

The control looks a like difficult.
Hopefully it will get some tuning.

Actually I think I'll get Infamous day one and I'll wait for the Prototype reviews.

I wuld too but I tend to disagree with alot of reviews. There are some games that just dont live up to the hype and others that are fantastic but got poor reviews...but maybe thats just me. I dunno. I def want InFamous though...lol

They aren't as similar as people think. I personally think inFamous has a lot more to offer in terms of gameplay and narrative. Prototype hasn't really shown much promise in anything besides the gameplay.

Please tell me they are going to do a graphic overhaul, not that it matters because gameplay is what counts, but it looks almost as bad as The Force Unleashed. Ha ha I love how the bus just stops and a couple bits come off and when cars blow up it looks like mario drank ipecac after getting fire power. So far, rental.

Yeah, where's the game based on guns n' roses where you beat up models and take 15 years to make an album?!

looks pretty good actually

looks good to me! i think ill pick this up instead of prototype, prototype has to much gore and looks to much like the Hulk games... infamous seems more attractive in my opinion, open world+powers+Karma+Sucker Punch= Awesome Fun!prototype seems to gimicky... would get bored to quick, its seems kinda forced... theres no need for all that blood, not used well enough. infamous looks like fun to level up and stuff.PS: Anyone noticed how his powers changed red depending on his Karma? i wonder if there ulternate powers depending on which path you choose?

Badass! Plus it looks like you get extra XP for doing more stunts during a mission (couldn't read the small text under where it says the stunts, so I'm not totally sure). If that's the case, it means I'll actually have to think even more creatively about the powers I'll be using and the surroundings - very cool.

I need someone to explain whats with all the hype surrounding this game? I mean it just looks like an average sandbox game...Not saying it's bad but it seems so hyped.
Posted: Apr 2nd 2009 4:50PM prodigy69 said
I still think prototype look like more fun..so far
Posted: Apr 2nd 2009 5:23PM (Unverified) said
wait... why RED lightning.... doesn't make sense.
Posted: Apr 2nd 2009 5:29PM (Unverified) said
Red because the person playing chose the evil side. There are two ways to play the game which determines which type of skills you unlock and your appearance

Isn't that the armored truck they used in Vampire Hunter D? :)

But the voice acting is another story...

I still don't get it why people get so worked up about. And all this comparing towards Prototype. Both game are only going to be ok, not great. Heavenly Sword is better then both of this title, and that game sure sucked.
Before giving me bad rating, you have to ask yourself if this game puts anything new on the table. -"YOU CAN SHOOT ELECTRICITY!!!" ...seriously, do I have to ask you again?
Both games are going to score under 90 of 100. That's not a great game. That's an ok game.

This game keeps looking better and better. I hope there were more busses in the mission, either that or a little bit more difficult in defeating them. Cole does seem to over power everyone in the game though, making it look a little easy. Hopefully you'll encounter more enemies with superpowers that require a little strategy to defeat.

I wonder if this guy will get Dr. Manhattan-esque warping from place to place abilities towards the end of the game. That would multiply this game's awesome by 10

inFamous no doubt is gonna be a great game. can't wait. prototype has noting on this.

Wow, they fixed the repetitive animations when he zaps things, much, much better. And the graphical flow shows the Sly Cooper heritage. I'm interested in this game now.

Holy cliched narration/voice acting batman!
And why is it in games, after all that action, the dude speaks up as if he's been sitting on a hammock all morning sipping martinis? Surely he'd be a bit out of breath.. a bit frantic with raised adrenaline?
"I've destroyed the busses... now I'm going back to sleep.. on my hammock"
It's all in the details, this game has a lot to prove for me to take it seriously. I don't buy into any hype anymore. Hopefully it's good because I love the setting.

The dialoges and voice acting seemed pretty good. Im looking forward to this game.

Hm, "Soundtrack will be available in PSN in May", but I've not heard ANY songs being played on any of the gameplay/demo movies I've watched so far. Only the trailers. What's up with that?

I wait with bated breath for the arrival of Infamous, but someone needs to tell Sucker Punch that the red lightning looks lame, also Lionhead called and they want their disfigurement back for Fable III.
