About Me
I am a Sony Fan boy, hands down. where as I don't agree with every business policy made there, at least I don't buy into the crap Microsoft advertises. Project Natal is going to be a disappointment, count my words.

Why inFAMOUS is better then [PROTOTYPE]
Denkai | 9:23 PM on 06.14.2009 37 comments


This is my response to fan boy Jim Sterling's review of Prototype and inFamous. His blog can be located here. http://www.destructoid.com/how-prototype-is-blatantly-better-than-infamous-135979.phtml

1. Alex Mercer isn't a pussy:

Wow, adding a human element to Cole was a bad Idea I suppose. I will give credit though, Alex is a bad ass. Granted tanks just didn't fit into the story telling of inFAMOUS which has a much better story line and gives the player the chance to understand the conflicts Cole faces, and seem more apathetic to the players choices.

2. Chain link fences:

Yes, cause thank God for realism to keep the story flowing a little bit, granted the great part about story telling is you can bend reality, it often hurts stories when you shatter that completely. Electricity takes the path of least resistance. Hense, fences stop it, that's why they also have the energy balls that explode, hitting targets on the other side.

3. Upgrades:

Hands down Prototype has the better upgrades.

4. Prototype isn't spelled all stupid:

inFAMOUS uses the title like that to differentiate the ability to be good (Famous) or evil (infamous). Even a Elementary kid knows that. and read the titles, [PROTOTYPE] in all caps dumb ass. Who the fuck does that? oh right a 14-year-old girl "yelling" cause her "boyfriend" just entered some chat room.

Seriously though, XBox? why not X-Box or ex-Box or Executive box? And Sony has the hard times with a name...

P.S. Stupider isn't a word dumb fuck.

5. Enemy variety:

Where as I agree Prototype has the better variety, are you serious? 3 soldier types, 3 vehicles, 1 "robot" and 2-3 mutants... some real big variety.

6. The Prototype comic book has an awesome rapetrap story in it:

Wow, all I have to point at is the ESRB of T vs M. if that makes a game or story for you, you are a seriously disturbed and fucked individual.

7. Running up buildings > Climbing like a spastic monkey:

yet again, back to the realism thing. Granted it is bad ass to run straight up walls, Cole could climb buildings before he got his powers. lets see you do that fat ass.

8. Water:

Wow, think game play. What fun is it if you can bitch out and hide underwater for a few seconds. who's the fucking pussy now. yes, this is a statement not a question.

9. The head of developer Sucker Punch is racist:

Move out of your moms basement and buy yourself a treadmill.

10. Final Fantasy XIII is coming to the Xbox 360:

And finally, look at "sells" for both games seeing as XIII has nothing to do with this review, I'll leave it out.

11. (my own think tank here.)

In my opinion Prototype has better game mechanics, but a shitty story line and half ass excuses for why they wanted to throw in a feature. Prototype is to 360 what Vista is to Windows.

inFAMOUS with it's only slightly less game mechanics (still good) has much better story line, and best of all better graphics then Prototype on either system. in short, both games are a must have, but realize Prototype is nothing but a sandbox version of dynasty warriors.
