First InFamous Review(s)


Recommended Posts

Played the demo, was pretty good. However I'm probably not going to pick this up right now seeing as they made all the new games $70 now. Will wait for a price drop and coupon codes on Amazon ;)

Really? That is odd, as prices almost seem to be coming down here. Just a few $$ but not going up.

Fricking Shopto emailed and told me they removed my card details because my account was inactive for 3 months.

Worst time ever when I have a game on preorder and they email a few days earlier about giving away the beta code if your order fails.

Just as well I was awake to correct it.

inFamous isn't as loose as Crackdown, it has a storyline to follow surrounding one character. Crackdown was just a collection of boss fights really.

If inFamous was to have Co-Op it would basically need to be a second campaign, or at the very least just Co-Op for a screw around, but that wouldn't be fun for that long. We'll see what they can come up with for inFamous 2 if it comes around.

Prototype originally had co op..but they removed it BUT they said it is a possibility of adding co op in DLC in the future..

These kind of games will be ****ing awesome with co op! :)

Crackdown was awesome with a friend, twice the number of explosions and fun. I can only imagine inFAMOUS being even better, shame we'll never know for certain.

They all love it:DD

Any chance we could get this topic renamed to [Official] inFamous Thread since the game is nearing release!

PS Can't wait!

I'll put up an official topic in the next few days! If no one else wants to do it/does it first.

Our new policy is wait until near release for official topics so they aren't 10+ pages of rambling before the game even hits :p I know it hits America on the 26th so I'll try have a topic done for then. EU is 29th.

Ahh ok, wasn't sure what the official stance is. Look forward to discussing the game when it gets released, banned myself from the demo now so it's all new and fresh when the game gets released. Only issue is that I forget to change delivery so I am going to have to drive to Manchester from Liverpool to pick it up on Friday morning. :(

Loved the demo, great gameplay, excellent animation and had tones of fun just running around climbing on stuff! And also was quite suprised how hard it cud be especially those bloody big white freaks!

Would be getting it day one but money is very tight and have money aside for car and going in holidays in about 2weeks lol.....mayb able to trade in some games for it thou...hmmmm

Just picked up my copy this morning (yay America!), and I've started on my "good" campaign. So far, I'm loving the game just as much as I loved the demo; it's so nice to FINALLY get a game that actually lives up to the hype!

I'm looking forward to seeing the multiple endings and different missions for good & bad - I really think this may be my personal GotY. If anyone hasn't downloaded the demo yet, I'd recommend doing it soon; I heard that some stores are already running out of the copies that have the Uncharted 2 multiplayer beta codes in 'em, so you'll want to make a decision about getting the game soon, if you want in on that!

Pretty good game so far, my only gripe is that the karma system is ludicrously blunt. Instead of coming upon situations and having to figure out for yourself what would be right and what would be wrong the game actually stops, tells you that you're about to do something that could earn you karma, and then explains exactly what your two choices are, leaving no real moral dilemma, but just "press triangle over this object to do the right thing or triangle over that to do the wrong."

Eh, it doesn't really bother me - I mean, they had to quantify the moral choices somehow just to make it actually feasible for the game; it's not like the software is capable of judging a million shades of moral greyness. It's a game, not a priest. :p I'm still having plenty of fun with it - although I'm trying to hurry up and push through my first full run this weekend; I'd like to have one karma run completed before the Uncharted 2 multiplayer beta starts on Wednesday. Then, I'm guessing I'll be splitting time between that and a second inFamous run for pretty much most of June. Sweet.

    • Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8, Flip 8, Z Fold Wide: Everything you need to know The ONLY thing I need to know is the price, which I know will be way higher than I (and most people) are willing to pay for a phone... so basically nothing here I need to know. PS: Nice job getting that Apple reference to a non-existent and unrevealed product as "competition" in there. Cheque is in the mail.
    • Well I really think the repasting helped if your higher clocks have returned, maybe the next thing to look at is if there is a problem with your case airflow? I guess this because your 3080 has returned to optimal state, but is still staying too warm, which might suggest it was thermal throttling before you repasted, of which the only logical conclusion could be outside factors.
    • Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8, Flip 8, Z Fold Wide: Everything you need to know by Hamid Ganji Galaxy Z Fold 7 - Image via Samsung The next generation of Samsung foldables is set to be unveiled next month at the second Unpacked event of the year. Samsung’s 2026 foldables are not expected to offer significant upgrades over their predecessors, with the Korean firm instead focusing on design refinements and conventional upgrades such as faster processors and better cameras. However, Samsung is reportedly planning to unveil an all-new passport-style foldable this year to rival Apple’s first foldable iPhone, which is expected to debut this September. Here’s a roundup of everything we know about Samsung’s upcoming foldable devices ahead of their official debut. When can we expect Samsung’s new foldables? The Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 series were unveiled in July, and Samsung is expected to maintain this timeframe in 2026. Based on previous reports from Korean sources, Samsung will hold its Unpacked event on July 22 in London, UK, to pull back the curtain on the Galaxy Z Fold 8 series. The devices are also expected to hit the shelves a few weeks after launch. However, Samsung has yet to announce an official date. A new naming scheme? One of the most interesting changes we might see this year is a new naming scheme for Samsung’s latest foldables. SamMobile reported that since Samsung is expected to unveil three foldables this year, it has adopted a new naming strategy to simplify product identification for customers. Accordingly, the standard Galaxy Z Fold 8 will reportedly be called the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and will serve as the direct successor to last year’s Galaxy Z Fold 7. The “Ultra” suffix suggests the phone could feature higher-end specifications, such as additional rear camera modules. Samsung’s new passport-style foldable is expected to carry the Galaxy Z Fold 8 name without any suffix. This model is reportedly equipped with two rear cameras. No major changes are expected for the Flip model. Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and Z Flip 8 anticipated specs Rumors over the past few months suggest Samsung is preparing several upgrades for its upcoming foldables, although the devices may continue to rely on larger batteries and faster charging speeds rather than dramatic design changes. The primary focus this year is expected to be the Galaxy Z Fold 8 and its wide-screen design. Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra official CAD renders - Image via AndroidHeadlines Here are the anticipated specifications for the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra based on previous leaks: 6.5-inch outer display and 8-inch inner display, 120Hz refresh rate, and 2,600 nits peak brightness Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, paired with 12GB or 16GB of RAM and 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB of storage 4.1mm thickness when unfolded and a weight of 210g 200MP main camera, 50MP ultrawide camera, 10MP or 12MP telephoto camera, 10MP cover camera, and 10MP selfie camera 5,000mAh battery with 45W wired charging Android 17 and One UI 9 As for the Galaxy Z Flip 8, the device is not expected to be a major departure from its predecessor, although it could become slightly slimmer. Expected specifications include: Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 or Exynos 2600 processor 12GB of RAM with 256GB and 512GB storage options 6.9-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X inner dispaly and 4.1-inch Super AMOLED outer dispaly 50MP main camera, 12MP ultrawide camera, and 10MP selfie camera 4,300mAh battery with 25W wired charging Android 17 and One UI 9 Samsung’s foldables are also expected to launch with Gemini Intelligence, Google’s AI suite for automating tasks in Android ecosystem. Moreover, given current memory and component costs, some Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and Z Flip 8 variants could see a price hike. Galaxy Z Fold 8 adopts a wide-screen design The centerpiece of the upcoming Unpacked event could be the Galaxy Z Fold 8, previously rumored as the Galaxy Z Fold Wide. This model adopts a passport-style form factor and is expected to compete directly with Apple’s iPhone Fold. Galaxy Z Fold 8 official CAD renders - Image via AndroidHeadlines Here’s what to expect: 7.6-inch primary OLED display and 5.4-inch cover display, 120Hz refresh rate, 2,600 nits peak brightness, and 4:3 aspect ratio Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, 12GB or 16GB of RAM, and 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB storage options 4,800mAh battery with 45W wired charging 50MP main camera, 50MP ultrawide camera, and 10MP selfie camera Android 17 and One UI 9 The three new foldable phones are unlikely to be the only devices unveiled at Samsung’s Unpacked event. The company is also expected to introduce the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 and the Galaxy Watch 9 series.
