LOL, no.

It happens in the demo as how else can they limit your access to being essentially a "demo" in an open world environment? Putting up invisible walls I guess...

They did handle it badly though, it should come up with like a 5 second timer saying return into playzone, not just pin you down right away.

No, I understand you can freeroam if you're not on a mission, but for example, when you're bringing the train to safety (first mission in the demo), if you get too far from the train, the screen turns black and white and resets you to the train. that's what I meant, the missions have a restricted area or radius around the objective it seems.

Ah well maybe in specific missions like escort ones, but I've not read any sort of complaints in reviews/on boards about mission restrictions like that being an issue.

It's not really any different than a car chase mission in GTA4 failing if you fall too far behind even although you could still realistically catch the car. It somewhat adds a layer of tension or forces control....

inFAMOUS seems to be pretty forgiving though with death/mission failure, restarting you at frequent check points.

There is only one thing I don't really understand about this game, and it's really stupid...Why is the title of the game captilized the way it is? "inFAMOUS"? I don't get it.

it was explained by one of the devs as the "good and evil" gameplay elements described. you can be "famous" (good) or "infamous" (evil).

It's the idea that no matter who you play you become FAMOUS, but it's a choice of becoming FAMOUS in the stereotypical sense, a hero, or inFAMOUS as in being evil.

Technically they aren't breaking street dates, they are following the rules that come with postal orders.

That is why they've never been in trouble before. Where they differ from other sites (who all do the same prep and posting), is the next day delivery.

Mine hasn't shipped from shopto yet. Maybe it is because i'm a mug and ordered the collectors edition version :p

I played the demo yesterday and thought it was good. The controls are probably its strong point.

If you ordered after this I guess you won't get a code!

All Pre-Orders up to the 22/05/09 time 4:40AM will be guaranteed an exclusive beta code for the future release Uncharted 2: Among Thieves. Once your pre-order has been dispatched then your Beta code will appear on your past orders page of your shopto account next to the tracking number for your inFamous purchase.

If you're planning to play through it twice, go good first. Evil is just more satisfying and fun.

Yeah I went good first. I'm usually not one to run through a game again after beating it, so at first I was kinda dreading playing it on the evil side...but after playing for a while and seeing how much more destructive the evil powers are, the game felt new and I found myself having more fun than my first playthrough. I'm enjoying the evil side missions more than the good ones as well. :D

Ah, that makes sense. I didn't realize there was a good/evil mechanic in it. It was really annoying me seeing the title like that, but now it's all good. Thanks. (Y)

Can you have multiple save games? I dont want to complete the whole game to play evil, I wouldnt mind having 2 save games 1 for good 1 for evil.

Yeah, you can have up to 10 save files. You're gonna need the 2 saves to play both sides.

Nightz how long does it take to unlock the glide ability? You can spoiler txt it if you want.

I just don't know how long I can survive without it :p

edit: Added a poll also to see what you guys plan on playing first!
