Genre: Action
Available On: PS3 Exclusive
Graphics:
The graphics in inFAMOUS are simply stunning. The detail on the characters and the shading throughout the city provides for an excellent visual experience. The various pieces of junk (this is part of the story I don't want to unveil) are in great number, each with a different animation. There are usually several things happening on screen at one time (especially during missions), and there is no hit to the graphics or FPS at all. The electrical effects and various explosions are all realistic looking. They effect the lighting and shading accordingly and they don't make the game "chug" (FPS decrease).
Gameplay:
There are various types of gameplay in inFAMOUS. Firstly, the game is a open-world sandbox game. You get to travel the world climbing, fighting, and doing various missions (main and side missions). The various gameplay types include when you're climbing around the city (like in Assasin's Creed). You have to plan your movements as you climb up buildings and random structures. Running, jumping and hanging on to anything that you can. Then there is also combat in which you use your powers, along with the environment to take on your enemies and sometimes get past obstacles that your enemies have placed in your way. There is also a Karma system which changes how the game plays out, it gives you various choises within the game and based on those choices the your character's powers change as well as some story elements and the way that the civilians view you.
Audio:
The audio in inFAMOUS is good, but nothing spectacular. Some of the sounds, such as those of the cars, are quite generic. However, this isn't to say that the audio in the game is bad in any way it's just that it isn't really unique or something to remember. Basically, the audio serves it's purpose with the strong point being the voice-overs. They are quite good and show expression accurately, suiting the position that the character is in (ie when they are in danger, they sound like they are afraid).
Other:
Overall, this game is must-buy if you have a PS3. The story-line is quite unique and entertaining to play through. Beware, some people have been reporting of crashes on certain mission. For example, I personally crashed on a particular mission near the end of the game, on the third try I experienced no problems in beating it.
Final Rating:8.2/10
