The storyline? I forget the intricacies, but it was all tied up quite nicely. Everything was explained, that had been brought up in the previous games.

Do NOT post any spoilers in this thread people....

Yes, INFAMOUS' evil karma story is better than MGS4.

You dont have to play through 3 games from 2 previous gens to "get it". It's simple, but at the same time has amazing twists and turns. A lot of "ohhhhh now I understand" moments.

Anyone who disagrees, SHOW ME ONE GAME WITH A BETTER STORY THIS GEN.

its all opinion, and i've yet to play through the entire game, but Bioshock comes to mind. Condemned 2 was pretty solid, too, IMO.

Yea condemneds was awesome! and Bioshocks is really good, i also like Infamous's story alot, im so abosorbed into the game right now, But best story ever is of course KILLZONE 2 grahhhhhhhhh

[QUOTE="spinecaton"]

Have you played all the other games this gen?

RM84x

Ive played most of the big games out there. Resident Evil 5, Gears of War 1 and 2, KillZone 2, Resistance 1 and 2, Halo 3, Assassins Creed, GTA4, etc... Obviously I have not played EVERY game ou this gen. But enough to come to the conclusion that INFAMOUS has the best story. That's why Im asking someone to prove me wrong.

I doubt it can measure up to Mass Effect, Half life 2, Bioshock etc.... but I do want to play it! Your sig makes me want to spend$400 on a PS3 though. Those are some tight exclusives. I wish they'd freakin drop the damn price already!

[QUOTE="Bazooka_4ME"]even MGS4's?RM84x
MGS4 is good, but it's held back by the fact that you wouldve need to have played 3 previous MGS games from 2 gens ago to really understand it fully. I never played MGS 2 or 3 on Ps2, so the story in MGS4 was useless to me, and everyone else who never played those games. Also, MGS4 takes WAYYY too long to actually tell the story, whereas INFAMOUS does it in short sequences and through phone calls. Another way it is better than MGS4 which drags on and on and on... showing a little girl cooking eggs. lol

Your missing the point there, your saiyng story is bad because its a sequel, and its bad because of the long cutscenes, so your not really comparing the story but the rithm and the pace ..

becasue storywise, (im stil awating for my copy of infamous xD) but theres no way it beats kojimas mind lol

but if you say its that good, than im even more exicted to play the game, even if it just scrtaches mgs (imo), cause i give a lot fo importance to the story

Portal's story is better, just didn't think the nice computer lady could have it in her to betray me. Honestly though, I don't pay attention to story's that much, I just remember CoD4 having the most generic story this gen, but if you want a good story go read a good book, or watch a good movie.

Hey AC story was good and had great twist in it, plus its a trilogy so you know there going somewhere with the story. AC as in Assassins Creed, not animal crossing HAHA

EvenwithMGS4 story not being as good as MGS2,3 and 1. I doubt Infamous has a better story. Heck I don't believe Infamous touches the Witcher, Mass Effect, BioShock, Half Life 2 EP.2 and Heavenly Sword in terms of story.

It contradicts a lot of stuff you learn about inearlier Metal Gear titles. MGS4 also changes a lot of key story elements to the series (in very lame ways and some don't make sense even for a MGS title). Also nothing beats PlaneScape torment and XenoGears IMO.

You do know most of the choices in InFAMOUS are window dressing at best? Most of the time, the end results ends up being the same. There is just a subtle change in dialogue to tell you; Hey, you're evil, but you still [spoiler] Lose the girl fool [/spoiler] .

[QUOTE="Vaasman"]

[QUOTE="Bazooka_4ME"]

jokes =/= opinion It's his opinion. I thought Condemned 2 had a pretty good story also.

I'm sorry but when the deus ex machina of your story is that the main character has magical yelling powers, you pretty much aren't allowed to say it has a good story. Condemned 2 completely ruined the franchise for me. It just threw subtlety out the window entirely. Yea I didn't know why crazy bums we're attacking me or why I was having visions in the first, but thats why it was scary.

that's just one conponent of the story...so jacob's ladder had a lousy story because they pulled a "who shot J.R." at the end?

Oh my God--NO!! Bioshock's story was an abortion that just went out of its way to trash Ayn Rand and Condemned 2 was a like a slap in the face.

that is your opinion. i believe otherwise, so i will respectfully disagree with you. and in the future, please refrain from using the word a*******. i find it offensive.

I just got The Price mission and I'm pretty damn annoyed with Sucker Punch now. They were doing so well until this.

I'm not going to mention any specfic spoilers, but apparently choosing to save the person you love rather than six strangers is designated as an evil act because it's "selfish." I admit that throughout the game, I was predominantly evil, but for the sake of character consistency, I chose Trish over the doctors (even though she's a total *****). This was apparently a big nono because Sucker Punch believes that people should sacrifice their happiness for some sort of "greater good."

The way I see it, coercing people to believe that they should subordinate their loved ones and things you care about for extraneous elements and strangers simply for the sake of being "selfless" is the true evil.

Seriously. What the bloody ****? From now on, my view of the game will be tainted. My principles are offended.

Other than that, the story's been pretty good, but damn.
