***The Official Infamous Thread***

Right well completed the demo, its a good length, gives you 3 missions or so.

Controls are great, really easy to use and quite intuitive. Good fun blasting people with your powers etc, though I was hoping for more variety in the moves available. I assume this will be different in the full release. Your karma levels change from Hero to inFamous depending on the mission, and this affects the moves you have available.

Climbing about on stuff is simple, though possibly not as slick as I had hoped animation wise etc. Random stuff is climbable and stuff that you think should be isnt.
Graphics are good, not the best but very slick and the explosions are pretty. Slowdown is present but its incredibly mild and doesnt affect the playing of the game, at least not for me. Its a LOT better than GTA 4 in this respect.

The missions are similar to GTA in that you go and clear areas of enemies, and I have to say that I hope they add some more variety in the full game as I can see them getting dull fairly fast. That said, its not an easy game, the enemies certainly fling all they've got at you, meaning I died a fair few times.

The enemies vary from standard recruits to special ones that hurl earthquakes at you! They seem to be pretty good shots which is annoying for people like me that suck at aiming haha.

You use L3 to locate electricity in order to recharge your powers and health. Most things that you expect to contain electricity do, such as lamp posts and cars, meaning that you're never too far from a recharge point.

Overall I will most likely be purchasing this, its a lot better than I expected. Need to read a few more reviews to see if the missions are more varied, although I have no doubt they will be. Its fun just to wander about zapping people :D
 
If you order it from the Jersey store for the Uncharted Beta code you'll probably end up not getting InFamous until Uncharted 2 is actually out.:p

Why do people always bash them? I've honestly had no problems. Every single game I've ordered from them has come early for me, besides one coming on the release date (and that was haze, so no big loss there). COD4 came 3 days early, MGS4 and KZ2 were 2 days early.
 
Anyone know what this 'special power' is you get with the limited edition?

I think it's something like electric claws, wolverine style maybe ?

EDIT -

this maybe,

Finally an excuse to set my PS3 up :p

What's cheapest everyone has seen this for? best price i can find is £32.99 but i might go for the special edition at £39.99.
 
Just pre-ordered this, was half tempted just for the Uncharted Beta invites but then saw a video review on the tube and the actual game looks half decent as well
 
Quite liked it. I wish there was anti-aliasing. And it seems too easy to get trounced. I guess I just haven't got the hang of it yet.
