Sucker Punch pulled it off... really well.
The side missions are repeated sometimes and sometimes they just plain suck, which isn't great. Although the evil and good missions are fun.
During melee, half the time you would swing a punch and miss, which is a bit annoying... but it isn't too bad.
Probably the worst thing about this game is the fact that it doesn't have ragdoll physics. I'm not sure why, most of all these next gen games do.
The last bad thing is that Cole will grab something when you don't want him too. For example, if you wanted to jump off a building and land next to a telegraph pole, Cole would just latch on to the telegraph pole and then you have to jump down.
All these bad things are only slightly annoying whereas the good things are really good, which makes this game great.
Free running free running free running! One of the best free running games out there... and it isn't even based on it! You can climb up almost everything including; telegraph poles, buildings, power lines and more!
Another good thing is that there are heaps of powers you unlock throughout the storyline. I won't spoil anything, but they are all upgradable with xp that you get from killing (and wounding) bad guys. The powers differ if you are evil or good.
Karma. The karma in this is great. You will be challenged with lots of different karma moments throughout the game. If you choose to be evil, you electricity will be red, if you choose to be good, it's blue.
The storyline in inFamous is very good, I won't spoil this either, but believe me... it's good. The end is great.
