im surprised nobody said crysis :shock:

I will say it though: crysis=best sandbox game, if you have the pc for it that is :S

Darthnaevus
i didn't really see it as sandbox, just large levels, it still had separate areas even if it did flow as one, but yes i suppose if it is considered sandbox crysis would join gta4.

millwrought

prototype is great. it plays differently enough from infamous to make it unique.

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

It was better than i thought, there is so much action, so much crap going on at once, its awesome, lots of random hilarious stuff happens and i cant wait for the sequel after you beat the game you have to find all 131 web of intrique targets to know the whole story, some of the WOI targets creeped the hell out of me. i love that about the game, the concept of the story

What do you want us to say ? infamous ? sorry but that game bored some of us to tears. its more of a platformer than an action packed hero game, Crackdown and Prototype ARE action packed hero games, the choice is easy for me, Uncharted 2.0/Meets static shock, or Prototype & Crackdown :P

Let's see proof of a rental or ownership. I've seen you trashing the game in posts here and the video review section. I mean, you must have hands-on experience with it to be able to question others about a universal AA title, right? Let's see it.

My first is GTA but my second is defiantly RF:G. I'm suprised everbody is talking about Infamous and prototype after playing and beating all three almost RF was the most fun.

But you were just saying how reviews are hardcore important here, and the whole thing about 9.0 > 8.5, so therefore it's a fact that you must think GTA IV is the greatest sandbox game to ever touch human hands. Just consistency!

As ive said countless times, Reviews only matter to people who go 'Ga Ga' over a certain game, reviews are useless to someone who doesn't like the game anyway

Shenmue got a 9.7 on IGN, Amazing score, but everyone doesn't like shenmue now do they ?

You were using reviews as if they were facts in the Prototype thread. You can go back and look if you forget. I'm fine with using Gamespot reviews as facts here, as long as we use them consistently. ;)

I always take one review with a grain of salt, i pay attention to the average, Crackdown got a 7 something on here, and i thought it was amazing ! but i believe the reason it got a 7 was for its missions, and non existent story lol

These are the games I have played and loved every one of them..

inFamous>GTAIV>>Prototype>>>>Assassins Creed.

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?clone01

Yea prototype has the better story, out of both inFamous & Crackdown, it seems more thought out, took them a while to come up with, i think they nailed it the Web of intrique is awesome and i love the concept espeacialy when you go out and find all the WOI targets, story is creepy, eery and badass at the same time ! explains why it got its own comic and from what Radical said (working with DC comics on more projects) Prototype will probably become more, we may just see alex outside the comic/game world, not bashing crackdown cause i LOVED crackdown, its one of my favs, but crackdown and infamous story seems like they were made up in a few days. infamous did have the better characters over crackdown tho (crackdown barely had characters)

GTA IV has much more variety in missions and side quests.. Prototype has more enjoyable character controls and development.. And Infamous has amazing story presentation.. GTAIV beginning presentation was great in the beginning for the first few hours, but after that it began becoming very piece mailed imo.. They are all great imo, though I am not sure I would buy any of them at full price.

And how did Prototype lose? What were you using to back that up? Yes, it was the review, therefore using it as a fact to support the argument.

Did any of you find all the WOI targets ?, i did, i guess Prototype 2 will be about Pariah.......that kid is fn creepy.

My only complaint is not really a complaint, but radical should have somehow incorporated those WOI in the main story, a lot of people play Prototype, beat the main missions and are confused about its story, only because they did not find all those targets, or didnt know they had to, i feel this makes the story as a whole suffer, when you find em, the story becomes great actualy.....everything becomes clear......and future enemies are shown......i was all into 'the conspiracy' and what not. Radical shocked me, im surprised they did such an awesome job on its story.

:lol:

Prototype lost because it scored less than inFamous. That's why it lost.

I never said which one was better, or said that reviews define which is better.

Prototype lost in the SW game because it scored less. It has nothing to do with being "better" or "worse", or which one I like more ;)

Assumptions FTW, indeed :lol:
