[QUOTE="haze_blaze"][QUOTE="Leathaface99"][QUOTE="JudgementEden"] If a games hype sparks your curiosity, then you should look at more videos that show more than just the things you mentioned. Originality IS one of the things that make it look good. For you to say its not is extremely short sighted and idiotic. Also, he does not climb like Spiderman, he is climbing with the help of ledges. Like Altair. And who cares if his running is similar to Niko? I also want to know HOW he is like Snake. The guys only powers is electricity, so how is it 10 different characters in one? Honestly, your logic is beyond stupid. You must have a natural hate for games that are the least bit hyped.

i watched videos...game looked very ordinary to me... its niko running around using the had-o-ken on people..how creative. what i find funny...is...its obvious the people hyping this game are teenagers...i guess the idea of a guy using electricty to fly and 'zap' people...excites them. i mean...whats the differnece between him using electricity to power up a train, and him pressing a button ?....WOW...electricity is just there as a gimmick, and it will get tired and repetitive real quick....what else can he do apart from shoot balls of lightening ? the game looks bad.

Stop being an idiot... I'm 28 and this is one of my most anticipated games this year. Electricity is a gimmick??? Are guns gimmicks? Because nearly EVERY AAA game this gen has focused on guns... which are far more ordinary and repetitive than using lightning. Your argument is just stupid. You don't like the game? Cool, don't play it... But the game is definitely not ordinary by this generation's standards, and that's obvious.

yes its a gimmick...and it will get tired very quickly...why ? because...at least with guns there is a variety....you can even customise them in MGS... really what they shoudld do is just release a mod for GTA giving niko 'electrical powers'...then there would be no need to buy infamous... and all you people claiming to be 'old'...your obviously big children....be ashamed of yourselves...this game is a joke, and it will suck when its released...u'll see. this game is only being hyped because he can float around using electricity and climb up walls...take that away...and what do you have ?....the onus is on ELECTRICITY....substitute that for a shotgun or an AK...and it sno different to tons of other games....gime a break....this game is a mockery. also...im not a fanboy of 360....if u like i'll forward you a caution i got for posting a thread int eh 360 section...im ps3 all the way.

Hmm this is a really stupid arguement btw. "This game is hyped because he can float around using electricity and climb up walls...take that away...and what do you have?" Do you realize how stupid you sound saying that. Lets see, play GTA but take away the guns, and the ability to use cars and what do you have?

i dont think you get my point... games are usually hyped accordingly...wether it had a following and is the next in a line of games (final fantasy, god of war, cod: MW 2, uncharted 2), wether its from well respected deveopers, wether its the first of its kind, wethers its a movie adaptation....etc.....you get my drift ? but what is infamous bringing to the table apart from the fact he uses electricity as a wepaon....the 'electric' facotor is the only thing i can see serperating this game from all the others...so therefore it leads me to believe that, thats why people are over-hyping it....in toher words...people are easily cohearsed and tricked into thinking a game is going to be the next big thing...people are easily brainwashed...its really sad to see... the game does not look like its going to be all that amazing to me...simple.

however it does look amazing to the majority of people...you say, "its not going to be all amazing to me" thats great, thats your opinion so quit trying to force it on everyone else.

You keep resorting to insulting people who are interested in inFamous because you have no real argument, you don't have to like inFamous just don't state your opinions as facts and say anyone who disagrees with you is brainwashed.

I believe it is getting hyped a bit to much. With that said, it does look like it will be a great game though.

I'm not even going to bother replying anymore to this moron. He even brings up MGS as if THAT was revolutionary in some way. He also doesn't seem to know about 'Karma', GTA doesn't have that, so karma sets it apart as well. Whatever though, you cant argue with people like this, I know all too well.

I've asked myself similar questions. I have seen videos, read previews and still don't really see why it's caused so much excitement. Although, the hype has got my intrigued and I will sit on the fence until it's been reviewed and compared against Prototype before I make any purchase.

InFamous is made by Sucker Punch. Most people who have played their previous games will agree that they are pretty well respected...

No one has said this game will be "the next big thing" and no one has been brainwashed... It just so happens to be the next ps3 exclusive coming out, thatalso happens to appeal to a lot of gamers and Is made by a great dev. It's just a game for pete sake, do you really have to bash it this much AND insult us at the same time? we get it, YOU don't like a game that isn't even in the shops yet... now that is sad to see :roll:

maybe because GTA4 was a let down for some people, including me, and they're looking for a great new open-world game.

[QUOTE="Tikicobra"]It's an open-world PlayStation 3 exclusive that lets you use electrical powers for good or evil and traverse just about any building. Does that answer your question?Leathaface99
no it doesnt... does'nt look all that amazing to me...its like they took aspects from 4-5 other games and jsut through it all into one game... its like giving snake the ability to float, and randomly hadoken his enemies...wow.....lhe even runs excactly like the guy in GTA...climbs walls like spiderman....this guy is simply 10 different game/comib book chracters in one...rip off.

You should read some interviews before talking mate
