This might be borderline trolling, because I don't have a PS3, so you know which game I'll pick.
I really like the "Manhattan is your Playground" concept in Prototype. You hold the sprint button in and go in any direction you want. It kinda reminded me of a faster-paced Assassin's Creed, but with a better combat system. This is also the only game where I go out of my way and interrupt a timed mission, just to get that Landmark or WEb of Intrigue target (random macguffin).
The only thing I don't like so far is that the game becomes almost too chaotic too quickly. What with the Infected and the Military fighting all over the place.

Prototype because its not on the PS3, so it pisses off all of those sony fanboys
I wish the stealth had some challenge... not just spam stealth consume.

I liked both. But Prototype is just filled with so many awesome moments.
Grabbing a random person by the throat and throwing them like a baseball was 1000x more awesome then shooting random people with lightning. Or running up the side of a building. Or stealing a helicopter out of the sky.
At least inFamous had kick ass trash monsters. That's pretty nifty.

inFamous was a boring third person shooter disguised as a super hero game. Prototype FTW. my only complaint were the graphics and the lame-oooooo story.
inFamous by far.
I finished both this week and to be true, i hated prototype , it's all the thing i don't want to play in a sandbox game.
Infamous on the other hand it's more fun, equally repetitive and technicaly superior.Either way both games aren't the perfect example of good games.

OH SHIT, GET YOUR TOWELS READY, IT'S ABOUT TO GO DOWN!!!
Prototype 4 life, just because I like to play as a GOD and not some flimsy electrical human who get's killed so easily and is completely DEFENSELESS against a CHAINLINK FENCE.
My only grudge? AIMING IS TERRIBLE.

Prototype is very close to one of my dream games. I played both at a friends, and infamous was fun but I like Prototype a bit more. Still, I'd gladly get both games.
Vote: Prototype
Bonus: Some weird control issues here and there.

oh, and I find inFAMOUS way better because it's alot more detailed and not just a put together piece of garbage (playing through prototype right now lol)
Prototype. Throwing a human being at another human being, only to have them both explode from the force at which you threw the 1st human, is roughly what I do for 2 hours everyday since I've bought this game. That right there is reason enough to love it.
But...basically the early mission where you lure the hunters to the base makes restarting a playthrough of the game fucking horrible. I hate that mission with a passion.

aaaaaa I hate you
I'll go with inFAMOUS this time because I love how its all up to your concience and will on what road to take

Infamous for me. On another note, I'm kinda disappointed in this GDTTD. There's much more out there than just these two games. Pick the top 4 games in a said year than you got a good debate.
Well, one is better in terms of story and the looks, but the other is better in terms of what you can and overall badassness. I really am confused as to which one I personally prefer over the other.
Eh, never mind, Prototype, I like running up buildings rather than climbing up them like an ape. But there were tons of things I disliked in the game. But I'll stick with the Hunters, those guys will charge you from half a building away, it's so cheap.

Prototype, because it's the only one available for PC...it truly maxes out the potential of the PC hardware, uses the trusted controls of the Logitech Dual Action, and doesn't have achievements (which are only for the $ony and M$ fanboys...
Sarcasm aside, Prototype does have major issues with lock-on (objective target or random civilian...it picks the latter) and the graphics are not great. However, I think polygon count was sacrificed to populate the streets with oh-so many pedestrians and taxis to demolish.

Prototype ftw.
Between the two I guess infamous was probably more realistic in what you were able to do, but f*ck that. Prototype was way more fun.
One thing I disliked about Prototype was the poor voice acting and unnecessary cutscenes that got in the way of all the fun!!! :P

@DrPhilGood, how much? I couldn't PM you for some reason.
My heart's with Infamous, but Prototype did go cross-platform... i think Infamous takes it for the cutscenes and story.

Prototype.
Bonus: Awkward aiming system was a bit annoying. I'm trying to target that civilian so I can punt kick him, not that tank 3 blocks away!

I'll go with Infamous, although I didn't like either of them all that much.
Nice little diversions though.

I have to say inFamous.
I think I liked inFamous more because it came out first. It was awesome going around the town with interesting missions and city unique side missions but some side missions are repetitive. The lightning attack was just awesome though
I hated Prototype but that's because
1) side missions BLEW.. like I mean really blew.. they were practically the same thing over and over again and I just couldn't sit there and play them
2) While going through the story I just have this feeling `I could really care less`
3) Pointless mission objectives in some missions
4) Hunter attacks that left you there getting raped
Although I do admit the moves in Prototype are better
Overall I have to say inFamous that`s my opinion and this chat won`t change it :P. Everybody can have their own opinion and if more people like Prototype that`s fine :) Personally I just didn`t

bought infamous on launch played about two hours of it haven't touched it since i received prototype. i'm just having way more fun in that game than infamous. so my vote goes to prototype.
wow, I've been on this site forever and I've left maybe 1 or 2 comments, but for this I had to throw my 2 cents on.
I was all about both when they were coming out. With Infamous first I liked it, but it was far too repetitive. There weren't enough differences between the good and evil sides. The evil side ended up being a bit more fun, especially because when I played through sticking to the bad karma actions, I was just blasting anything and everything. The differences in story were completely minimal at best. I was hoping the showdown with Kessler the second time around would be a little different, the only thing that changed was the little video after the credits, and Sasha talking to me a few times... gee thanks. I enjoyed playing the game, but was happy to finish it and move straight onto Prototype.
After Infamous, my hopes were high for Prototype... More action, more diverse powers, more gore, crazier animations and death sequences. Those hold true, but it lacks the polish that Infamous had. Here's a game, similar to the game I just played and enjoyed, with all the improvements I thought it needed, and its disappointing. I am playing through it now, but I'm missing the polish, simpler controls, and the focus that Infamous had. The camera gets wonky, the lock on feature is really slow, the enemies are somehow cheaper than the infamous reapers/dustmen/first sons. Running up buildings and trying to get to a specific spot or hint sphere can be frustrating... Its still fun, but not as much as I had thought it should be. The story is interesting, but how it evolves with the web is both cool, and annoying. Overall the narrative to Infamous at least kept its focus.
I'm a little over the half-way point on prototype on 360, so I can't say I know everything about the game. Seeing how its playing out, I can't believe I'm saying this, my vote goes to...
Infamous
(and what the f&^% is up with the hoodie on Mercer, it looks tacky as hell)

inFAMOUS get my vote and the reason is because it was polished the eff up whereas Prototype just completely lacked the polish to make it a triple A title, which in my mind inFAMOUS was.
Vote: inFAMOUS

InFamous. Prototype was more exhilarating, but the fun got old fast. In inFamous, even though the gameplay was a little more dull, the story motivated me to finish, and -- call me crazy -- I thought the ending was neat.
inFamous, because SuckerPunch wasn't too lazy to make a climbing mechanic, while Radical just said "fuck it, let's just say he can run up walls? Look cool enough".
And because one of the Infamous trailers introduced me to the band If These Trees Could Talk, awesome music.

inFamous, it was actually fun.
The worst part about inFamous was that the game crashed a couple times on me and that wasn't so fun.

prototype. it's more cathartic. plus that stupid twist in infamous made me remember the 6th sense. that and infamous make the fatal flaw of writing in making a movie/game: the ending having no clues prior and basically making the whole movie/game based on the ending.
