The PS3-exclusive inFAMOUS (look, it's not our fault, you're supposed to write it that way) sees bike messenger Cole McGrath suddenly given electricity-based superpowers when one of his packages explodes, devastating six city blocks. The gameplay is one of those "sandbox" worlds like Grand Theft Auto, and the player can choose to be good or evil, although that doesn't ultimately affect the story's outcome. Your powers increase as the game progresses, through jumping, shooting and puzzling. It is not unlike Activision's multi-platform Prototype.
"It was the first game I've come across that had a big idea and a character arc," says Turner, which rather suggests that he hasn't played all that many. But we like him again as he continues "It is, at its core, a love ballad to the underachiever." Amen to that.

Agreed

Why on earth would you want to see a Prototype game?!
Prototype had a terrible, dull and unoriginal story whilst inFamous was solid and interesting. Plus it had a great twist at the end that got many talking.
However, whilst that maybe a nice thing to see in games, films have 'been there, done that' so I don't know how it will translate.
I wish Sonywould stop whoring out their games and let games be games... I suppose they are trying to create big franchises...but couldn't they do that t... Read More
I'd have preferred to hear that they were making a Prototype movie. The effects would be incredible, would be truly 18+ rated, and is actually a pretty exciting story. Alex Mercer is a very cool game character creation, taking all the agility of Spider-Man, the strength of Hulk, and the blood-lust of Wolvering - who wouldn't want to see that?!? ... Read More
