I do. I saw the E3 demo for it the other day, graphics look pretty good but the plot and the gameplay look very boring. The whole electric power thing just looked stupid and cheesy as well. What are your thoughts?

I have to say that I'm kind of bummed about about the electricity thing as your main power. I was originally under the impression that you'd basically choose you main super power and have a power tree and expand on that by competing missions or leveling up.

Oh wow, is this how far fanboys have come? Nit-picking on aspects of a game which redeem it? I guess Animal crossing looks stupid because your character is the size of a peanut, oh and Gears of war also looks stupid because it's got chainsaws attached to guns!

Seriously people..

Yeh, i thought it looked pretty boring. I thought you would be able to choose your own super power. Now that would have been cool.

I'd rather have another Sly Cooper game.

Infamous does look stupid. I have to be honest, I watched the GS LIVE show where they talked about it, and it feels very much like they took a character they shouldn't have, and a power they didn't think clearly about, and made a game. It's... no Hellboy or Teen Titans, as far as "emerging superhero story" goes, that's for sure.

It looks stupid and boring. Not a good combination.

The devs are fairly talented though so who knows? Could turn out great and shock us.

Here is my gripe; When asked if the game will have more than just electricity, the dev just said "oh, but electricity is so cool!!, why use guns"...That was a major gripe for me. I was hoping for it to widely expand its territory into the electricity idea which it is but also to still keep it more free. I would have been fine with guns having a small limited amount of ammo. Even only being able to use certain guns but there are none. Heck, even a knife would do but I guess they think they're idea is just so perfect. If it wasnt for the game focusing entirely on that power, it could have had so much more potential. Now obviously the game isnt out yet so in reality, it isnt time to make judgement but I stand by what I say.

Other than that pretty big gripe of mine, it looks really fun with the climbing. It kind of reminds me of crackdown. Oh, the fun I had in co-op was just amazing.

Infamous looks very similar to another game that will see a multi-platform release aroudn the same time called "Prototype." Will definitely wait for the reviews to come out soon to make my opinion, but at this point, I think I will go for the game that is only available on one platform...

Did anyone else think, "Ok...so it's Force Unleashed..but with no lightsabre..." the guy even looks like the bloke from Force Unleashed...

Plot sounds super cheesy as well, what the hell is this Unbreakable or something...

I have to say that I'm kind of bummed about about the electricity thing as your main power. I was originally under the impression that you'd basically choose you main super power and have a power tree and expand on that by competing missions or leveling up. It was either that or more of a you don't have any real super powers, maybe just some interesting abilities.

It should make for an interesting game though. Open world crime fighting pretty much.
Tiefster

I kind of agree with u that it wouldve been better if they had different like super powers we can use but at the same time to me, this is a new super hero, "Sucker Punch" has come up with and a good example is if im playing a game like spiderman, then I expect him to use his basic powers which is using webs. It would make no sense if they made a spiderman game and instead of using webs they had u create your own powers but you are spiderman. U see what I mean. It just wouldnt feel right.

What makes me excited about this game is that it is like GTA4 where u can just go anywhere but beyond it because u can also climb buildings and stuff and not just because of that but just for the fact that u start off as this hero with powers that doesnt know how to use his powers but then as u go on in the game and try an either help the innocent out or play the roll as a bad guy u will unlock and learn different things u can do with your powers. I love these type games.

Also another thing that sounds awesome is that lets say u have a mission u have to do. But while u are going to accomplish that mission there could be an innocent person that needs your help and u have a choice of just leaving that person there to die or u can go on and accomplish your mission, of course if u are a villian u prolly will kill those innocent people or just leave them there to die but if u are a good hero, of course u will try an find a way to save that person and also accomplish your mission. These things got me real excited for this game and not only because of that but also for the fact that it is being developed by, "Sucker Punch" the devs who brang us, "Sly Cooper which is awesome and we know, Sucker Punch will not dissappoint. Lets just say these guys are just like Insomniac. I really think Infamous ill be an awesome game and will catch alot of peoples attention when it releases. :)

I am glad I am not the only one. I was looking forward to it. However since using electricity is the only thing you can do, the game no longer interest me. It doesn't seem to have the crazy over the top mayhem either.

I hope prototype start to grow on me because that game isn't doing it for me either. Crackdown is still one ofthe most fun game I played this gen.

actually that "telekenisis" was actually supposed to be like an electro magnetic force or something.. all his powers are actually tied in with electricity in some form or another.. which i think looks really cool actually. lightning rocksss :P

People who say its sucks that he only has one power get over it. your basically saying you hate every super hero/villain known to man. Besides superman who has every power known to man. You take one power and you expand it to the fullest and use it in different ways. Hell look at spider man he shoots webs,but he does creative things with his webbing and it turns out great. I know its more of a gadget he has,but that fact is that its kind of like his main thing besides having strength,agility and climbing walls. Hell the guy from infamous does have agility and climbing abilities.

Also you do make choices in the game and I'm pretty sure the character depth is way better then crackdown. I want this game More then prototype since i can make choices in a game that will effect the world in some way.
