Gamespot System Wars Fact: GTA IV

My Opinion Purely Based on Fun: Prototype, then maybe Crackdown or inFAMOUS

If they just fixed some of the glitches and made a better story, it would have been a hit. Battlefield Bad Company was popular and there isn't a huge amount of difference in them. And sorry, Prototype was a dissapointment.

I think Infamous is a great contender because it's like GTAIV except you have electrical powers.

lol I love you sign. On topic so far infamous. I dont find it fair to compare something like infamous and gta4 since they are different types of open world games. It more fair to compare infamous to prototype and GTA4 to SR2.

GTA IV but to be fair though, the only other Sandbox game I've played this gen is Crackdown. I'd love to get my hands on Infamous and/or Prototype and see how they compare to GTA IV in terms of enterainment.

No doubt, I've been more pumped for Prototype than inFAMOUS for a while now, can't wait to buy it.

GTAiv, Infamous, and prototype. I suggest everyone to grab all three. They are the definition of sandbox games.

okay, i'll rephrase. do you enjoy Infamous over Prototype for the gameplay, or are you just saying you enjoy Infamous more because its a PS3 exclusive? because, honestly, from your sig, avatar, and posting history, i have to really call your credibility into question. and again, have you played Prototype?

gta 4, but that's the only one i've played apart from the infamous demo, and farcry 2 which was butt. just cause 2 is looking pretty cool, and i might try out crackdown 2 when that comes out.

IMO, it's InFamous. I played this game nonstop and i didn't rest until i got my platinum trophy. Amazing game! Great story, good graphics and perfect gameplay. Couldn't have asked for more.
