...yet Prototype scores higher? What would the damage control sound like? Here are ten reasons this may happen.

i think most ps3 owners would consider this a win, considering they can own BOTH titles :?

Cows would play damage control with the "we get both". But every non-fanboy would know that they bashed Prototype all along.

Lems would try to get ownage on the cows.

It's a win win situation for most, so it doesn't matter.

Then we'll know among the reviews that it scored higher, simple as that.

The lemmings would damage control by writing off an exclusive game with a multiplat, like always

For one inFamous is longer and seems more deep then Prototype not saying that its a bad game but inFamous has more story more re-playability and more side missions etc, I can't wait for both but inFamous seems like a much better pick imo.

Well, who would truly be worst off?

Cows who got a AAA & AAAe, or lems who can use a multiplat to bash an exclusive?

In this case, personally, I'd say the cows would still come out the winner.

Looking at these two reviews I see both looking similar but I see Infamous getting old real quick.

From IGN review: "It took me about 25 hours to go through both storylines, but I've put in a total of 30 hours searching for Blast Shards and my Platinum Trophy. All that, and this still isn't old."

Even if Prototype scores higher than InFamous, it will be a double-win for cows.

I Doubt Prototype will score anything higher than inFAMOUS. BTW - Prototype is on Ps3 as well, so we get to play both games. LOL

Lems will still be jealous because they can only play one of them and will try to rub it in despite the jealousy? Yes, that's what will happen.

Lems cant though it's really just a win - win situation for cows, because how can you really claim ownage on a game they get to play anyway? cows are just in a good position either way this time around.

I don't think DC would be necessary, considering that Prototype is a multiplat game.

I just have a feeling inFAMOUS will score more, but you never know.

I don't see many people bashing Prototype tbh. Most (including me) expect inFAMOUS to be better but that's not the same as saying that Prototype will suck.

Bottom line: There's no ownage to be had here....

I'm more than sure this will happen... But the worst lemmings will do is try convincing everyone that their version of Prototype is the superior version because they claim their graphics are just a hair bit better.

I'm actually more interested in Prototype than Infamous, but for the sake of System Wars going to have to chalk one up for the PS3.

From the gameplay footage, what little there is anyway, i reckon only a large moneyhat will stop Prototype flopping. There is something iffy about it i cant quite put my finger on. Maybe i am mistaken. (yeah likely!)

I'm actually liking the gameplay footage from Prototype more than Infamous. Although I'll probably get Prototype on PC when it comes out, I'll probably wait to pick up Infamous when it's at a cheaper price.

Lemmings will create multiple threads about how infamous flopped (even though it's hyped as AA) and why Prototype is much better than it actually is.

Probably, reminds me of what they did with RE5 when that and Killzone 2 were released. Even though KZ2 looked better and cows could play both :lol:

I think we need a Prototype vs. Infamous sticky. These threads have been popping up a lot lately and with the release of Infamous, they are just going to get worse.

I can guarantee you TC that prototype will not score better than infamous. Infamous has already had some AAA reviews, does prototype look like the type of game that could get an AAA? Heck no.

Crystal ball my friend, Crystal ball :D You wanna make a gentleman's bet? I bet you that here on GS, Infamous will score better than Prototype, and over at Metacritic/Gamerankings, Infamous will have an overall higher score. You wanna take the bet? :D

have u even played this unreleased game or just the demo n watched the ign review? ur basing what your saying off of nothing basically. which is done a lot...but ur stating things as facts that can only be said if the game had been played by a person completely through. as well as prototype, which isn't released yet either. cows make me not want to buy a Ps3...ever.

What if it is just a highly polished, stylish, excellent overall game regardless of all the scores?
