Wait, I can electrically ride the telephone lines, it's just the railway lines we can't in the demo!

I was just about to say, all you have to do is jump onto them :p

I haven't played the demo, but if you check the map, is the location where you're trying to grind the train track sorta darkened out? If it is, that means there's no power in that area, so you can't grind there.

[Guest]

Also, I've just managed to grind on a rail line. I just stepped off the platform and that was that.

I'm becoming slightly evil, my rank is Infamous, wonder if that has anything to do with it?

[DrunknMunky Veteran]

Yes you can, I did it.

@LocoNeo, let it go.

Ahh this is why I was trying to grind on them with no power, doh :p

Wow, that was fun. I am so relieved they nailed the controls. They feel super tight to my surprise.

I think the biggest plus is how fast you can aim whilst moving... especially coming off of KZ2 :rofl:

It really makes it easier to kill people with precise hits than you thought it would be.

Absolutely. The platforming aspect is smart too. Not frustrating or annoying, and he rarely grabs onto ledges that you don't want him to.

[DirtyLarry Veteran]

Keep checking the Playstation Store hoping it may show up early, not sure why I would even think that, so 5 minutes to go until it is 6 PM here. Told myself I was not going to play the demo and just wait for the whole game, but who was I kidding. LOL

[Corris Veteran]

You could just use a UK account to download early, lol.

[DirtyLarry Veteran]

Meh. To much effort. :laugh:

[Corris Veteran]

Meh. To much effort. :laugh:

You don't already have one?

Loser. :p

[DirtyLarry Veteran]

You don't already have one?

Loser. :p

No need for one since I have a Japanese account.

I mean cmon now why would I possibly need a UK account anyway? :p

[Corris Veteran]

To be part of the cool crew. :rofl:

That you could get demo's slightly earlier, like today for example.

And I didn't know you could speak Japanese, and if you can't, that must be a lot of fun for you. :p

Yeah I can see the pay off with getting demos a bit early, but I somehow can control myself. LOL

And cannot speak a lick of Japanese, just need to see pictures and I can do the rest from there. To be honest not even sure why I have a Japanese account... Ohh thats right I wanted Last Guy early.

And 60 seconds left in my download. I also have no issue waiting a bit as I am the only person on the planet who apparently has a fast connection to the PSN (and FTR, it did not show up until about 6:30.. EDIT - Installing now as it took me that long to type out that sentence for it to finish.

[Vortex566]

Just played the demo. I never even knew about this game until a few weeks ago!

It feels like Crackdown but a lot grittier which is by no means a bad thing. I think I will be picking this up when it comes out for sure.

I was shocked to see this is PS3 exclusive. Is it Prototype that is coming out on both systems?

[Corris Veteran]

Ye prototype is multi-platform.

Not sure on the release date for it though, its been moved around a bit.

[+Audioboxer Subscriber²]

No idea who gets this (SCEE or SCEA Home)

I want Gigawatt blades :(

Gamefly has it listed for June 9th.

I want Gigawatt blades :(

I wonder if those will work something like Athena's Blades.

[DirtyLarry Veteran]

I stopped playing the demo about half way through.

Reason being is I loved it and do not want to ruin the full game experience.

Seriously it just left an amazingly positive impression. If I happen to be out anywhere I have the chance to do so I am going to try pulling some jedi mind tricks this weekend to see if I can get anyone to sell it early. LOL

The whole urban spelunking climbing whatever you want to call it aspect combined with gliding on rails like Sonic or Ratchet and gliding just has me right there. Just my type of game with the whole plat-forming aspect and how enjoyable I find it to be. Never-mind the fact controls are also spot on for everything else. Real fluid for sure. I can tell I am going to enjoy it tremendously.

I have no issue at all with it being just Single Player either. I think this is the type of game people can have vastly different experiences depending on how they approach things and their overall general game-play style.

Eagerly awaiting when I get my hands on the entire game.

[Emil Valsson]

I'll sell you my copy, heheh, just kidding. :p

After playing the demo I am really looking forward to it, took me a minute or two to work out the powers but once that was done and dusted destruction ensued. It's an absolutely awesome game and they have really executed it well. Can't wait for the full game. I wouldn't say it's a successor to Crackdown, it feels more like a sibling, same style different execution. Very impressed though and looking forward to it. :)

One draw back of playing this now though will be in games similar to this, I will be running to traffic lights or street lights to try and heal myself and then will die :(

[Remysaus]

Not sure what to think yet, first impressions were really good, but after playing the demo twice I'm starting to wonder if there is enough variety in the game.. and it's a real shame there's no ragdoll physics :(

anyway, I'll pick this up as it is really my type of game (played the hell out of crackdown, loved assassin's creed and in general love sandbox games..)

Playable directly in the browser window on both PC and Mac computers, the mini-game will showcase the action-adventure gameplay style featured in the hotly anticipated inFAMOUS PLAYSTATION?3 game expected to launch in Europe in late May 2009.

In the inFAMOUS mini-game developed by Kerb, players get to extend their inFAMOUS experience through playing this free platform based 2D version of the PS3 title.
