First InFamous Review(s)

[Corris Veteran]

Hahaha, nah. It's really not :p

I know, but I like to annoy him by blaming him for it. :cool:

Two Scots and a Sethos, its a TV show waiting to happen I tell you.

So anyone know when the demo is going to hit, GMT time preferable.

That has a nice ring to it tbh! Either way I need to ###### my friends PS3 and play the demo.

Okay you guys have had your fun for two pages, shows over :p

I can imagine Sethos and Munky sitting gripping their mouses right now hurling rage faces at their PC waiting for the inFamous topic to bump with an Audioboxer reply!

At least the games shapping up to be solid, my biased campaign to defend it and everything Sony would be much harder if it was tanking. I still look back on the days when I had some pre-release positivity towards Lair, I'm sure the old crew will remind me about that one day soon ;)

Okay, wait a minute. Are you kidding me? Oh wait, you probably are.

Guess that was the only way out, being condenscending, hopping on your high horse and riding into the sunset :)

It was a joke, lighten up. If we can't have a debate, be angry at each over then laugh it off we're doomed come E3.

I was purposely slating myself with that reply you know, you know I get carried away sometimes.

Knowing I'll sound like a grumpy old man, yet again - Have you noticed, every time you crack on of these supposed 'jokes' in situations like these, they rarely ever go well? Wouldn't it be an idea just to ... Save them for later?

If you have a problem with a conversation between me and others report it dude.

We all decided to take part in that debate on the last page(s), you have a choice to get involved or not. I don't think anything we said was against the rules, just some opposing differences on a game, I think all 3 of us are adult enough to know how each of us tend to respond to the others, it's quite heated but I don't mean any of it maliciously. We're 3 outspoken guys :p If you go visit the RWI forum then you'll see the exact same thing all the time, but with more meaningful topic matters than games :laugh:

Publicly hanging people out to dry ain't really fair Brad... Yeah the fingers on me now, but all three of us took part in that conversation willingly.

Sorry dude but I didn't know how to calm the situation down there.

My bad.

edit: On a side not my frickin Sack Boy arrived LOL. Pics in the official topic in a minute.

Well Andy hasn't been around recently, and last time I pointed you out it backfired a bit. It is the same though, someone says something opposing to what you say, even though it's their opinion and you go off on some technical jibber jabber about how they're wrong.

Sure it's not against the rules, but if the gamers hangout's going to be civil people need to be able to post their opinions without being challenged... It's the fact that you end it with a sarcastic comment with a smiley every time that's getting tiresome.

But yeah, whatever. If it happens more then I'll just sit back and let it go.

The whole point in opinions is being challenged... Don't mix debates up with being un-civil, one thing I never do is name call anyone personally, but that's been done to me many a time. An opinion isn't a representation of your personality unless it's about something to do with you or something serious, we're talking about games here, not real world issues. Someone hating inFamous doesn't mean I can't like them as a person! However someone hating say gingers, means I will probably find it hard to get along with them lol.

I only posted smilies in my joke post above, not throughout the main posts in here. Sethos has already gone off at me for that in another topic though, I won't use them at all any more. It's a catch 22 though, sometimes you don't use them then people take your comment to be something it's not. At times they are used to frustrate others though, no doubts. One of the main issues with text based communication, it's dry, hardly any emotion can be shown.

Ahh whatever, I'll leave you guys alone, honestly, it's not worth people getting warned/banned/publicly "stoned" from the forum users. You claim to not like talking to me, but when we have a debate you guys keep going as long as I do, it's confusing! That's my only defence as to why I keep replying. If people don't want to talk to me or read what I say then logic would tell me they'd kill the conversation. Hardly anyone does that though, only after a conversation has naturally fizzled out do I/we get barraged with "You guys need to shutup and stop going around in circles". Everyone knows I like to talk, and type a lot, I'm a very fast typer, I knock replies up in no time!

You do have to admit in a lot of these scenarios it does boil down to a 2 on 1 scenario. Nothing wrong with that, nothing wrong with Sethos and Munky sharing opinion, but in a debate it can be harder for the sole person under the "pressure" of the debate, for better or worse. That's not a criticism of anyone, just bear it in mind when a conversation is going on and it's a majority opinion vs a minority. It can be easier to lose your cool when it's 2 people coming back and debating what you said, than 1, but that's up to me to keep my cool regardless.

I mean can you imagine 2 Audioboxer's discussing something with you? :p Well, all 3 of us are outspoken and bold characters, essentially I do have two Audioboxer's discussing things with me at times! :laugh: (Sorry, I HAD to use smilies here! lol)

With E3 around the corner everyone here needs to be able to enjoy themselves, not be serving suspensions or on the fringe of starting WW2 in the "Who's E3 conference was best" poll that's inevitably going to come up!

For some reason this game doesn't excite me AT ALL. Just feels like a rehash of a few other games.

Come to think of it Prototype doesn't really do it for me either. They are kind of similar games.

i saw the start of the game that first guy you talk to...really put me off the game it sort of set the scene as something rather childish and annoying if i ever played this game i'd make sure i kill him first and skip all clips

can you skip clips and talking in the game? i'd rather just play this one ^_^

Unless i buy an RPG, i'm expecting most of my time to be spent in multiplayer. The days of 10+ hour single player modes are about over for most games (aside from RPGs). I'd rather they focus on their original story and make it solid than to add things late in development...wouldn't you?

i hate games that focus on the multiplayer component it takes away from the single player side i enjoy the 10+ hour single player games and i hope to see more of them (mgs4 was brilliant :D)

a good story shouldn't be rushed it would be nice if they had a seperate multiplayer story for it should never interfere with the original game (a lot of people online are just retards that ruin the experience)

Yeah well, it's the same **** everytime.

then you should be more prepared :laugh:

Woot 1000th post

Giantbomb quick look video - http://www.giantbomb.com/quick-look-infamous/17-629/

I love how Giantbomb call these videos "quicklook" then it's 25 mins long :laugh:

I guess spoilers, but for those on the fence it should be a good watch to get an idea of what happens outside the demo.

edit: Just watched it all, looks awesome :D

Hmm, not as fun as I'd thought it'd be. Already bored of shooting lightning and grenades.

...But if that lightning was coming out of a gun - whoo-hoo! :rolleyes:

I've been loving on this demo for a while; the controls are tight, and you start to really get into a "groove" when it comes to climbing stuff and skating on the cables & rails. And frying pedestrians pretty much NEVER gets old.

Wait what?

You can skate on the cables and rails in the demo? How?

I know it's an ability you unlock, Giantbomb guys said it was whilst showing it off, and I for one cannot figure out how to do it in the demo?

Maybe it's because I only tried to do it at the start, then gave up - I know throughout the demo it gives you more powers to play with, I might just have missed it.

[Corris Veteran]

Ooo Uncharted code with ShopTo orders, awesome Sauce, I'm happy I ordered with them now. :D
