Game Description: What would you do if you suddenly found yourself gifted with superpowers? Would you use them for good, or would you grab power and dare someone to try and stop you? Find out in Infamous. When an explosion rips through a six-block radius of Empire City, Cole is the only thing left standing. He’s been gifted with electricity-based powers, and not even he knows what he’s now capable of… Discover each of Cole’s new superhuman abilities as you explore a completely open and organic Empire City World. Wield your powers for good or evil and watch the city embrace you as a hero or condemn you as a villain.

JAG came home with the newest release from PS3 inFAMOUS… We watched the trailers and teasers and it looked pretty cool. I have not had a chance to play it yet but been watching JAG play it…

From what I heard, read and now seen first hand, it is a pretty cool PS3 game!!! When JAG had to chose between being evil or good, I got him to be good of course, to protect the innocents… lol but I am pretty sure he will re-do the game and chose the evil side.

Now to the gameplay from what I can see… Stay clear of the water for a start… Cole’s powers all stem from electricity and his abilities will develop as he progresses through the game. He begins with simple lightning bolts and electromagnetic force blasts and then learns how to toss grenades made out of electrical energy, he fires bolts, rides power lines and eventually he can call down a lightning from the sky.  Cole’s gain exp points by doing missions and defeating enemies and can then use those points to upgrade his powers. The comic book style-cut scenes make it a bit different but inFamous still has a bit of a feel similar to Crackdown & Assassin’s Creed mixed altogether.  Also the little  in-game missions keep the gameplay  interesting challenging and make you use – or learn how to use -  Cole’s powers to their full extant… though some might them a bit frustrating at times…
