Forums → Games → Infamous or Prototype?

Get both.
They're both awesome, although Prototype lacks a good storyline.

Prototype has a cool storyline. The web of intrigue thing is neat~

Really, my character didn't grow too fast. I spent a lot of points on movement early on, though.

And the enemies. . .the helicopters are the only annoying ones.

Stealth is a big part of the game if you want to go into military bases, or be more tactical.

Lack of decisive combat movements? sorta, but I only bother with the powers.

And the thermobaric tank & the helicopter that shoots thermobaric rounds NEVER gets old.

and hijacking vehicles. . .it's really fun to longshot grab between helicopters with the whipfist. Did you just do a quick playthrough? If you savor it, it's one of the best games of the summer.

I finihed it and was very disappointed, there wasn't anything special that kept me going on, the last hours were pure repetition

You're missing the point though. You were disappointed about transportation, combat abilities, and stealth - and you've completely forgot that it's all based on character customization. You upgrade Alex in your own way to suit you - be it movement, stealth, combat, powers, etc.

And did you do any of the extra events? Did you raid military bases or destroy infected hives to manipulate territories?
Really, you're criticizing it for things that were your fault. There was a geat variety of a lot of things to do - there was in-depth character customization as well. And you're saying you were disappointed because it didn't offer enough vsariety or character balance - when how balanced your character is is under YOUR control, and the variety of things you do in the game is under YOUR control. there's lots there, you just passed over it.

It depends. In Infamous you don't really feel like a superhero because you are very weak to standard enemies and can't kill them very easily, but it is a very fun game. In Prototype you are way more powerful and can take on entire armies of enemies at once, but you have to fight those enemies A LOT so it could get repetitive for some people.

i have both prototype & infamous prototype is much better cause of the gore and shape shifting

prototype is the best game ever. infamous seems boring to me.

Havent played prototype yet. Infamous was pretty fun but prototype IMO looks better.

holy balls people are still talking about this! now, i personally like infamous much better, BUT PEOPLE NEED TO STOP COMPARING INFAMOUS AND PROTOTYPE. infamous is almost like a shooter/adventure while prototype is more of a brawler. infamous is more my type of game though

Whatever. . .you like it or you don't. But I don't really see your side of the argument - I never got bored with the game. But that's just me.

Prototype

The game play and graphics are both outstanding and it's less complex and more entertaining than Infamous

Prototype is freakin sweet!

prototype great game, its really good if you like free roam games u can run around and kill things while doing so.It has a really cool upgrade and story line although you do lose your powers with one but you get it back after 2 or 3 missions also you have really awesome "Devastators" like Tendril Barrage Devastator (you shoot a whole crap load of tentacles out of you back), Groundspike Graveyard (pound your fists into the ground shooting giant spikes out) also use that on hives because it will kill them in 1 or 2 hits, then you have critical pain (you trust both hands forward almost if you were about to push someone the its prototype's kamahamaha XD) prototype is better think about it gore, shapeshifting,awesome moves vrs. what shooting lightning?
