So is this game more fun than saints row 2? I am on the fence after reading some positive reviews. Giant Bomb really makes it sound good.

What a ridiculous question.SuperEnemyCrab said:
I don't know .. is Uncharted more fun than New Super Mario Bros? They both have platforming after all.
inFAMOUS is very very good.

Well they're both sandbox open world games, geez. It's not like they have NOTHING in common. And SR2 is a mess technically, but still tons of fun to play which is similar to what i've read regarding inFamous. Thanks for the opinion though, I guess.

This game feels a lot like the spiderman open world games and I had a blast with those so it's no surprise I'm having a lot of fun so far.

Kinda sounds like the voice of the chick from SOCOM, but I could be wrong, I'll pay closer attention when I play it later.
Saw the TV ad for the game though, it's not bad at all surprisingly. Also they changed up the end of it. No longer says Playstation 3. Just says only on PS3. Getting ready for that new hardware redesign I guess.

Make sure you install the game first...unless you just missed them on the power screen.
The Sly Cooper games were good and all, but damn, this game is on a new level for them. I love when that happens with a developer!

This is more like an open world action game, I think you'll find it better paced if that's the aspect that's bugging you.
Yeah, the PS3 logo is in the instruction manual. As far as the game goes, there isn't much to be said other than how fun it is.
As far as the whole fence thing...I don't get it, the metal would conduct electricity, so why would you be able to shoot through it? Seems like it is behaving as it should to me. As far as being able to climb them, I guess that is a bit odd.

There are a fair share of bugs in this game. I've had audio, visual, AI and geometry issues. Of course, its an open world game, so I kind of expected it. It would still be nice for developers to get their act together. I'm tired of my console games having bugs this generation.

I don't want to sour any of it's big fans, but this is like Crackdown Improved in my book. Maybe you're not getting the same sorts of powers, but it's a hell of a lot more fun and more cohesive. It lacks the whole co-op thing which is always nice, but it is a pure single player adventure.

No, but they are neat. You won't miss them, though.
I hate this trend with pre-orders.

So, I just beat the game and now I'm trying to do all the stunts. Am I screwed on the 3 at once shockwave one?...I've done all the side missions already.

Fired it up for the first time today. I was kind of meh during the tutorial but once it turns you loose it gets pretty fun. Like many others have said I easily got distracted hunting down blast shards (dead drops, not so much) but even the missions are pretty cool. The only thing I've found frustrating so far is how jackasses with AK-47's and pistols and nail you with pinpoint accuracy from the top of a building several blocks away.
I also kind of wish the melee had a little more audio "umph" to it. Maybe my sound system sucks but there just doesn't seem to be any impact when you're beating a guy down, which is really noticeable considering their crazy reactions to being hit.

I don't think the magnetism (and it's definitely not "capricious," which implies there's an uneven sort of guesswork involved in determining when you're in range, which would make sense if it wasn't really easy to judge based on Cole's animations) makes the platforming trivial...it makes it possible. It would be near impossible to play out most of the late game scenarios without some form of Tomb Raider-style lock on.
The best thing inFAMOUS does (and what you'd expect from Sucker Punch) is inject a healthy bit of linearity into the game to give the overall quest some structure and purpose. The sewer parts are really great and classic Sly Cooper-style linear platforming, and SP's designers push you to do it by disabling electricity in the regions you discover-- that is, you're heavily disadvantaged if you don't follow what they want you to do at least for now After you turn on the power, you can do whatever you want for as long as you want.
Unlike something like Crackdown, the game's general mission design is inventive and varied. Unlike Assassin's Creed, the side missions are also pretty varied and fun, but like that game, they are very short-- another good thing. You talk to someone, you get the mission in one sentence or less ("HEY THE REAPERS ARE THERE GO KILL THEM") and you're off.
Some of the great side missions:
--Counter-surveillance
--Abduction
--Satellite Relay
--Street Fight
The side mission I hate is SPY GAMES, which is a GTA-style "trail the car" type mission. Truly horrible. I hate stealth gameplay.
I think I'm on the last mission. There is platforming in this game that is unbelievably awesome.
Before you go hunting for blast shards (and getting shot at by every Reaper within 50 miles), do the side mission in that area. Then you clear out the area. Then you can explore until your heart is content!

I have to agree. It's getting harder to figure out what you get from which retailer. Not only that, but it feels like the retailers are having trouble keeping it straight too. I have some issue every single time I pre-order now, whether it's the clerk not knowing, or them not having it, or they gave them all away....Musashi Wins! said:
Some stuff, I don't mind. I love apparel and game swag, so line that up all day, but when it's in-game stuff (which I always want) then I get annoyed.
I just got to the warren last night, after searching every inch of the first island. I took 1-2 mission, but already the action is picking up like crazy. The Dustmen Vs, Reapers mission was like a freaking war zone complete with [spoilers]robot scorpions lol[/spoiler]

You can have mine if you want it.
There was this one side mission where a reaper was on the floor so I accepted it and it showed a picture and treasure circled on that pic, I had to find the treasure. I didnt know if it was good or evil so I abandoned it but it disappeared...will it respawn eventually?
Man I wish Spiderman, and other openworld games in general made better missions like Infamous, it makes the game 10x better.

I think Y2Kev mentioned it early in the thread, but taking all the health upgrades in the beginning is sound advice and lessens some of the aggravation from the mega enemy snipers.

I agree with your post, this part especially pisses me off in this game. It was mentioned on ListenUp but enemies that spawn out of nowhere that you cant see and hit you from across the town are really annoying.
