inFamous, Prototype, or Assassins Creed?

Let’s have an argument, an argument between what some would consider the best RPG, free roaming, sand box games out today. Let’s start off with Sony’s exclusive, infamous.

Infamous has been talked about for some time now and is only playable for PS3 owners. So what’s so good about? Well the game offers a super hero approach, like Spiderman except without the bad game-play, and poor graphics. Infamous is set to change the poor standard of hero games before it.

You play as Cole, a character who mysteriously has electrical powers after a package he was carrying explodes and tears down the city he lives in. Gangs have taken over the city and are causing havoc to the civilians.

Cole is a very powerful character and must make decisions though out the game that affects his karma and the way pedestrians behave around him. The choices you make effects the story line and the powers which Cole has the ability possess. Good or evil, the choices you make change the way you play.

The game looks to be a great game and a review will be up on the site as soon as possible.

Prototype, another new game among the genre takes a more graphical view to the hero style of game play. You play as a mutated character called Alex Mercer in an infected New York City. The city has been split into different sections. The U.S army are struggling to control the situation and your character is neither good nor bad.

Alex has the ability to transform his body into various weapons, including mutating his arms into spikes that can cut though flesh, steel and anything. Along with that he can also consume peoples bodies, taking their identify, he is basically a shape shifter

The game looks great and offers gore, New York and The United States Army, a game with such features really has to be good. However will it be quite as good as infamous, both games offer an open world environment, but on a completely different style. Let’s move on to our last game, that being Assassins Creed 2.

Assassins Creed was to be as some might say; repetitive though the story was in my opinion good, however not great. This game is not completely new like the other two; players have already had a taste of the action form the first game, whether they liked it or not the squeal is set to raise the bar and hopefully answer some unanswered questions.

The second game is set in Italy a few hundred years ahead of the last and instead of playing Altair you play a new character called Ezio, as well as Desmond the person held captive in 2012.

So you know the details, but what game? All the games look fantastic and if you liked the previous Assassins Creed game then the squeal maybe the one for you, however both infamous and Prototype look amazing and the choice would be a hard one if you had to decide between just one.

In graphically terms, in my opinion, I would say that Assassins Creed 2 would beat the others this is based on trailers from the other games and the quality of graphics from the last Assassins Creed.

In story terms I would go for infamous mainly because of the karma system, but the story from Assassins Creed had me hooked and I’m desperate to find out what the hell happened at the end of the last game.

Then again Prototype looks awesome and the fact that you can literally tear people in two along with other abilities makes it stand out with its gore and originality.

If I had to make a choice between the 3 games, I would chose infamous, mainly due to fact it’s a PS3 exclusive that looks great, has what seems to be a great story and has a person who possesses some kick ass powers.

Feel free to comment on the choice you would make and leave a reason if you wish, I would love to hear your say.
