1.1 - Summer is a good thing, when there are no games come out = no competition.
And plenty time to play.

I'm much more likely to play it.

This game does show promise. Infamous looked so boring and plain when Xplay had the gameplay episode of it. Like even the dev couldn't describe it without repeating everything and dodging questions.

It's from the developers of Incredible Hulk ultimate destruction, so I have faith it will be somewhat good.
As for infamous it did look like it could get redundant, same boring enemies and essentially 1 power.

2.3 - wow, Xbox guys who don't own a ps3 are belittling a Game that they never have.
Hey Guess what?
I will be Playing Prototype and Infamous. Hurts? doesn't it?
Oh wait, Killzone 2. Icing on the cake.

Here is the link to infamous trailer http://www.youtube.com/watc...
just as cool as prototype trailer. Both are about gaining more powers as you progress. It's just that Infamous hasn't shown anything but around 1 st or second level.

btw, Prototype looked boring to me when they showed on x-play a long time ago, but they have improvements and shown new stuff in the trailer, so my excitement for the game is back up.

In fairness comparing the Prototype and Infamous, it will all depend on the execution of the two games. We have not seen a real time gameplay of a person playing Prototype like how it was done with Infamous. It's all about how you present videos and trailers... think about it.

2.5 - No, chaosatom, the true icing on the cake is...
...knowing fickle little jerks aren't playing Infamous.

Not everyone can afford everything, that's just life, and I feel sorry for those who aren't able to get all three consoles; but to deride those who can because they cannot makes those people worthy of scorn.

gamers like violater who won't be able to play both games and have to base impressions off QVGA vids make me feel bad.
So sad. So sad.

2.8 - Depends on your style of play.
Just judging from videos, inFamous is a slower paced game, much like an open world shooter with action elements. On the other hand, Prototype seems faster, with an emphasis on over-the-top action and movement elements.

This is just like when people were saying Pure was better than MotorStorm: PR because they could only Pure, as MS is a PS3 exclusive.

I saw Infamous trailer right now, and, tell you what, Prototype trailer looks and feels WAY better. And I have a feeling the same will be with the released games.

Some of it looked good, some of it looked meh.

That tank driving part just didn't seem to fit, like graphically something changed. Can't place my finger on it though.
Shut this user up Let user speak
pixelsword - 350 days 15 hours ago
8.1 - I would only assume that graphically, the game has improved, but I believe it's a matter of perspective
The visual angle for the tank in this clip was pulled back more and at a higher angle compared to the earlier clips, if I'm not mistaken.

What?

There's no way you're serious right now.

The Sly Cooper developers vs. the Hulk: Ultimate Destruction developers. Is that really a contest?

Prototype does look really fun...but just about as fun as a game like that can be. InFamous looks like an epic with a deep storyline, non-repetitive gameplay, and all-around fun elements.

Two words,Sucker and Punch!!

Sucker Punch did a great job with the Sly Cooper games on the PS2 so I know Infamous will be awesome on the PS3.

12.3 - you're saying that like...
Kung fu panda would be good if iD made it. Just because developer's old titles might not match up doesnt mean their new ones are going to suck. After all, EA made dead-space, which is considered by many to be a true masterpiece.

12.4 - um...
http://games.ign.com/object...

You do realize that EA is made up of 27 studios, spread across the world...right?

That's like saying SCEJ shouldn't be criticized because Sony Santa Monica made God of War. It makes no sense.

EDIT TO MY BELOW COMMENT: Devil's Advocate is only fun if you can play the part right. You're failing miserably. Blizzard and Activision may add a couple of new people, but they didn't fire everyone and start from scratch. Guerrilla Games may as well be "Random New Studio". Do you see my point? This game looks fun...but it also looks extremely repetitive. What makes you think it won't be?

You just bought yourself a world of disagrees by not writing what PS3 fanboys want to read. Being PS3 exclusive automatically makes games better, you know.

After watching this trailer I think Prototype looks better as well. Look at the running animation in INFamous. He runs like he's late to the toilet. Looks silly. Not only that, I also think the action in Prototype looks much faster and much more large scale than in INFamous.

Sue me...

That's an impressive resume...

Wait...what am I saying?

EDIT: Disagree? Who thinks that's an impressive resume? Who in their right mind thinks these people know how to make games?

EDIT 2: Guerrilla Games isn't even comprised of the same human beings as it used to be. They have also hired hundreds more individuals to make Killzone 2. Give me something to work with at least. If you're not going to give a good argument, you might as well alt/tab back to Warcraft.

13.1 - going to bring resume's into it eh?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wik...

yeah...

My point is completely valid, recently blizzard and activision merged, completely new people may be working there. The fact is you're trying to claim that the game will suck based on the studio's history, well, their history is still better then GG. so, what would that say about killzone 2?

devils advocate is a fun position.

Considering that Radical Entertainment has a considerable list of mediocre games and no real "gems", I have to agree with Leon. It's not the same kind of comparison. With over 30 titles under Radical's name, not a whole lot of them were really all that great. Yet the main thing to keep in mind here is that Guerrilla only has four games on their list, one of which still is not released. And to add, KZ:L is a pretty well received PSP game, and overall it's pretty fun IMO.

That aside, I think Prototype looks a large amount better than it did before. In terms of qualirty, I don't think Prototype will be bad by any means, but I think if we are comparing Prototype to inFAMOUS, I think inFAMOUS will be the better game by a decent margin, and I will be getting both regardless.

The Lazy One - 350 days 13 hours ago
13.3 - you aren't taking into account something very important.
I think this is only the second title they are making after being acquired by activision.

I still think it's ludicrous for you both to think that just because a company, who's never really been tested in any way to push their games, will fail.

This is their first major effort in this gen, and, while their games aren't amazing, they weren't especially horrible either.

Also, this game looks far less repetitive than infamous. Even if you compare both trailers, they could barely fit all the features in Prototype's whole trailer.

I find it interesting how people want to compare this game and infamous more and more while each time we see more of each game they look less and less similar -_-

If there was any question before hell this trailer made it MORE clear that Prototype is going in a completely different direction than Infamous

thereapersson - 350 days 12 hours ago
18 - Wow, this looks much improved
Though, the framerate still needs work. I think both this and Infamous will be great, because though they are both open-roaming games, they have different gameplay styles and storylines. What this has going for it over inFamous is that it looks like in Protoype you can enter vehicles. I don't think you can do that in inFamous, which is a tad disappointing. Anyway, I hope it pans out well. I all but forgot about this game, and it's nice they are still on track.

It will be an interesting battle between Infamous & Prototype. Graphically as of now Infamous looks better technically, like the whole lightening and character models and stuff. But thats not to say Prototype looks any bad.
Secondly in my opinion prototype has different types of powers, while Infamous only has variation of electrical power. Which is a +1 in my books if done correctly.
Lastly the storyline looks pretty awesome in both games, but I think what I like about Infamous more is that it is taking a different comical approach towards cutscenes, while Prototype has the usual in game cutscenes.
Plus Prototype is a much more visceral, brutal game then Infamous & I am probably seeing this game getting banned in Australia :(
Which game I am hyped about most, I don't know the both look great to me, & i will most probably be getting both.
