GTA was overrated, there's enough shooters on the market right now...

Go for inFamous.

if you don't have a shooter MW2. If you want an awesome free roam super hero game infamous. If you want the worst GTA in the series get GTA4.

I would say GTA 4 since I had the most fun with that game out of the three. MW2 is vastly overrated and Infamous was just way too repetative.

Infamous! if u can only get one now, then MW2, and GTA4 is a good game, just that you will get bored after like 30 hrs, and even then you are only half way though the game

All of them.

GTA IV took a while to grow on me, and I'm a huge GTA fan. But I had a blast online with friends doing stuff like 1 sec respawn, on a small map, near eachother with rockets or snipers. And doing stuff like that was a blast.

InFamous was the first game in a while that really sucked me in and kept me playing for a while. Borrowed it from a friend, and beat it completely. And I still wish I had it to pop in every now and then.

Modern Warfare 2 is a great shooter. Especially for online multiplayer. Nothing new or groundbreaking, but just a solid setup, and why fix something that's not broken?

I haven't played GTA4 but I do know about the other two.

Infamous will be more fun while you play it, but you won't be playing it as long. Getting the platinum probably took me about 30-40 hours, while I have already spent 50+ on MW2 online and plan to keep going strong until a new game comes along to steal my interest for a bit.

If those are your ONLY possible choices, I would recommend a good book.

Infamous: Awesome if youlove repetitive.

GTAIV: Awesome if you like the worst a franchise has to offer.

MW2: Awesome if you enjoy blowing $60 on a game that can be beaten in 5 hours.

To get the most out of your money, if you play online, then go for MW2. Infamous can be fun in short bursts but becomes repetitive quickly if your trying to get everything. GTA IV was just bad, as someone said before me, the worst in the series.

Well I wouldn't consider it blowing 60 dollars really if you have an internet connection. A lot of fun to play online, and if you ever finish everything there is to do well then i recommend getting out. But in no way would i say that if your looking for a PS3 game and those are your options you should go for a book. thats a little ridiculous. I would recommend all but GTA. For me, it got boring. Fast.

It's up to you, you could probably pick up Infamous and GTA 4 for the same price as you could pick up Modern Warfare 2 for.

Infamous is completely overrated and suffers from "billions of enemies forever and ever" syndrome. It's also very repetitive and while the powers look cool you'll realize that they really are just your traditional guns in disguise so it's really a glorified boring free roam shooter.

MW2 is also very overrated but more easy to stomach than Infamous. The single player campaign throws every summer action movie cliche at you every 10 minutes, it's a pretty exciting setpiece spamfest but then again its only 3-4 hours when I played it. Don't buy if you don't plan on playing multiplayer. The core of multiplayer is ok but the map design is terribly amateur and leads to a lot of WTF moments. Try before you buy.

GTA 4 is one of the greatest single player experiences I've ever had. So many interesting characters, such smart humor, such great gameplay, great story, so much fun. Multiplayer is decent, I only play free roam with my friends so I can't speak about the other modes.

I'd definitely get GTA4 if I were you. It can be found very cheap now and it's an experience that you should not deny yourself. MW2 is also a solid multiplayer offering but whether or not you think you have the patience for it is up to you. Infamous can wait.

I have all 3 games .

From those , i would get GTA 4. It has the best story , solid MP ( not many people play it anymore though ) , long SP . . . MW2 SP last's around 4 hours , so don't get it if you don't care about MP . InFamous is good too , but i liked GTA 4 far more .

I would also suggest Batman : AA instead of Infamous . . .

GTA 4 was the worst GTA game in the series I thought the characters were boring and people phoning you up all the time to go bowling or play pool even if your ignore them they won't help you later and you get punished for it all the time. Saints Row 2 is better then GTA 4 it has plenty of more stuff to do and it's more fun and you can create your own character.

Out of the 3 games I'd say inFAMOUS good game although I finished it once but I never got in the mood of playing it again but I'd recommend Saints Row 2 over GTAIV.

For the friends part, I always accept their invitation and then I cancel it, it seems that that way you won't lose how your friend like Niko. As for TC question, if you like solid single player game then I suggest Infamous. If you want only multiplayer experience because the single player campaign is bad then go with MW2 but I have read that the multiplayer is only a camp fest. As many ppl said GTA4 was pretty overrated and it is the worst of the series but it is still a good game that will keep you playing it for alot of time.

you are doing it wrong, if you accept and cancel you still lose a lot of "friendship" with them, just that not as much as it would have been if you decline

Well: If you want a long lasting game and hours off online - MW2. If you want a great single player game - GTA IV If you want a awesome super hero game - inFamous For me, I own the 2 outta 3 on the list, MW2 and GTA IV. I haven't played GTA IV in ages because I just don't find the online that fun. MW2 is pretty good due to playing online so your choice.

id come up with 3 new picks. mw2 is nothing special. and i especially hate the physics of it. gta4 is my pick for biggest letdown this gen. worst one ive played. getting called to go on "man dates" while on the run from the 5-0 and hittin up cyber cafes in a video game in a attempt to meet chicks online is just down right disturbing to me. i cant say much about infamous though, havent played it. looks like they replaced your guns n grenades with electricity is all.

get mgs4 if you dont already have it. its cheap now and it has the best sp and underrated mp af any game out there for the dollar value.

The only one I own out of those 3 is inFamous. I highly recommend it. It's just fun. If you're more into online multiplayer, though, I'd say go for MW2. inFamous definitely doesn't have multiplayer.

Hey guys, I've decided to take out MW 2 from the list since its basically MW with new sh!t and stuff.

Soo, now it's just inFamous and GTA 4. Which one for Christmas? :D

I know you guys are fed up with this post but I really need a game that would keep me playing until FFXIII.

Thanks again! :D

Infamous is an old game now and if u compare it to the free roam games now it is a pile of ___. I had it and it was good for its time. MW2 which i personally found it was great . If you play online then buy it, but if you play for the campaign then i would rent it. GT4, ive never had interest but ive heard from people that have the game that its ____ so from now on its up to!!

You can probably get both GTA IV and Infamous for the same price as CoD MW2. I know GTA is usually like 30-40 and i think Infamous might be around the same price range.
