I like the Shockwave and the Megawatt hammer of Hero better.Maggot9 said:
Nothing like homing missiles that send guys flying in the air like they are slowly swimming and same thing with the shockwave.
The lightning bolt of evil is cooler but I like my chain headshot lightning and energy replenishing.
Shock Grenade of evil are cooler but it split up to far when throwing it from a high vantage point.

Actually I think there are still some areas where enemies respawn at even if you cleared all the areas. No matter how you look at it though, you've got a long grind ahead of you.
That sucks. I'm on the third island with a ton of missions and have about 10889xp so I plan on buying that 12000xp power.
People that are struggling to get all of the updates, don't forget that you don't need to buy those that are 'neutral' (i.e. Identical for both good/evil). I have the True Karma trophy and there's at least one power I haven't fully upgraded - the Thunder Drop one I think.
I didn't need to grind at all for those, but I did religiously heal people as I ran through the city streets.
An absolutely fucking amazing game from start to finish, and a surprisingly gripping storyline for a game. Can't wait to see what changes there are in the evil playthrough, which I'm going to do now on hard to get the Platinum trophy.
Sacred 2 is due today though, which might scupper my plans.

Saw the ending last night (I've been sick and thus I've watched my roommate surpass me and finish the game) and I was really impressed. I liked what they did with the main villain, although another friend of mine think it's just all around stupid. I know the game is full of plotholes, but I think it made the story far more interesting in the end.
What's the general consensus in the thread, do people like the ending?
Also, glad to see the thread is so gigantic, seems the game is doing really well and I expect to see some surprising sales numbers for this game.
Oh, and Sucker Punch, please give us the conduit teleport move for the sequel. And an option to play as lightning-infused Sly. Thanks!

How can I do the "Hard" trophy without changeing the difficulty? The game starts on normal, so I have to change the difficulty to hard.
Or doesn't it count during the tutorial? Any help would be appreciated!

It changes on it's own if you do well during the first mission.guggnichso said:
That's what they mean.
Alternatively, you can change the difficulty to Hard, start a New Game, and it'll default to Hard.

wait, so if you start a new game and change the setting before you start moving in the crater it's already too late? I'm past the first island already in this run...anddo0 said:

Awesome game. Only picked it up yesterday (stupid Australian release date wtf) and I had my grandparents visiting so im still on the first island. Unbelievably fun, amazing lighting and effects, performs exceptional and has only a few niggles that I can point out. So much fun, playing this game gets me excited like a little kid again its so awesome!

I really regret continuing playing the game on Hard, never have I played a sandbox game where I felt weaker as the game progressed instead of more powerful. The start of the second island I regularly and often get my ass handed to me, I feel pretty powerless and have to go a LOT slower to try and survive in order to complete some of the objectives.
It's making finishing this game really difficult, I'm finding it hard to stay interested since I'm dying so often.

How'd you manage to beat the game 2x already? :lol
I've been playing for at least 2-3 hours each night since the day it was released 5/26 and I JUST made it to the 3rd island last night. I've been doing all of the side missions, Evil missions, as well as the dead drops and shard collecting.
One thing about this game that impresses me is the fact that its sheen hasn't worn off in the face of E3. I mean, when E3 occurs, I can't deny that it takes something out of the games I may have been playing at the time. inFamous still feels fresh and incredible even amidst the E3 hype. I really feel like this might just be my favorite sandbox game of all time. They've solved so many problems I've had with games of this type. I'm constantly surprised and impressed by it. Absolutely brilliant game.
To think that I was not interested in this title up until recently. Just didn't look appealing.

Hard is basically Normal with less XP. The only problem I had was the last boss, but was nothing compared to Radec on Elite. Use the rooftops more and Shockwave helps to give you some breathing room.pr0cs said:

I would love if he started developing powers in other elements.
Future Cole had wind based powers, so it would fit with the story.
It could work great from a gameplay standpoint as well. Make it like Devil May Cry 3's styles that can change with the touch of a button.

You mean hard mode is hard? Who knew?
Infamous is now my favorite PS3 singleplayer game along with Uncharted, it's brilliant, I love the controls, gameplay, music, presentation, atmosphere, pacing, texture work... yeah it has GFX shortcomings, but a sandbox game of this caliber it's the first PS3 effort of S.Punch, and the PS3 is <512 RAM total so I didn't expect a miracle, it looks better than you made me believe it looked too, fantastic game, if you're in doubt try the demo or something. Repeat: it's brilliant.

Slackers, the both of yous. I had my Platinum on Sunday night
Just loving the game! Getting around town is enough fun by itself. The quests are really well done and I don't even mind doing repeats as nothing has gotten old yet. This is a sandbox game that's just on another level.
It really does feel like a great comic book super hero story. I'm playing good so when I enter a new area and see some people lying around hurt I always go to their aid. I may be climbing a building but if I missed a guy down below I get down and heal him. In 95% of games I play a mechanic like this would have become tedious but strangly in Infamous it hasn't. I actually find myself happy to do it.
I've really taken on the mantle of hero. I can heal people and I think it's my priveledge to do so. Really bizarre but the game has captured this spirit so beautifully.

I've noticed this. I can't believe I never figured to use the shield on the golems before but it makes them so easy. I've also been focusing on taking over the territory, so that there's less random guys spawning.

Infamous only 49.99 + free shipping at Newegg. DIdn't know if this would be worth its own thread, so put it here.

God damn
things.
I wish it told you how many hours you've put in. I'm not 50% complete yet but I've put in a fair few hours. Trying to find all the Shards is fun.
And I so want to be evil :devil:
