@musicalmac: remember, this is Gamespot we are talking about here. The same site that gave Forza 5 a 9 and TLoU a 8. They aren't exactly reliable.

or maybe because cows realise the series isn't AAA calibre. Never has been. Infamous 1 was hugely overrated on gamespot, it was a 7.5 game. Infamous 2 was 8.0 at best.

Its not a special series. Its just hyped a lot because cows have no other games.

@RR360DD: Wasn't overrated, and definitely wasn't a 7.5 game. The series was well received critically and has a ton of fans. The first two games don't have that much bearing on what SS will score. The game is pretty much guaranteed a solid 8, with a small possibility of a 9.

Going with a 7. Infamous 2 had more features with the editor. Infamous SS is vanilla and not really advancing anything besides graphics. Really missed out by not having co-op or multiplayer, if they could have added in more features this probably would get a solid 8. I just feel the lack of progress over infamous 2 will hurt the score.

@musicalmac: The game just doesn't look like AAA material. I wish it did, but it's really lacking that special little something that AAA games usually have. The series has never been an AAA series either.

Just kind of boring. That's all. Boring.

meh, i'm sure mcshea will flop it if he reviews anyways. Will probably complain about dumb shit like screen fading colors when low on health again even though that's still a standard many other franchises have done.

Gamespot gave one of the top 5 games last generation (TLOU) an 8...no confidence in their reviews. I think inFAMOUS SS will have a metascore of around 85.

AA? XD

All I've seen PS fans talk about over the last month is how this game is going to destroy the competition... Apparently, the Sony fanbase is in dire need of a pair of balls.

Top 5 by my opinion and by overall scores and awards. It is in fact the most decorated game of the previous generation.

There was no opinion about it. A game that scores more goty awards than any other game of the gen, garners its top spot.

Actually theres no such thing as Game of The Gen, or even Game of The Year, no matter what the sales and reception is. Its just a popularity contest.

No, it showed him not dying when getting into water with a button prompt that says "press -button- to get back on land" or something. AFAIK, you cannot move while in water.
You don't die, but you still can't swim.

Son...while I understand you are accustomed to asking others to provide proof, and never receiving any, you should know by now, never to ask that of me. So cry more...and waiting for the dc and excuses to start pouring from your stinkhole.

And cows shitposting in the Titanfall thread.

Cows are such hypocrites.

Not sure why xboxdone is comparing this game to TLOU when they're clearly not on the same scale

So two sources. One from system wars, and the other from a single media source. So yes, it is a fact that it is the "most awarded game in history" but it is still of your opinion that it's the greastest game of the gen. Not everyone uses the same requisites as you do to determine that.

Infamous SECOND Flop

Looks great but unfortunately looking great doesn't quite cut it. The same ol' gameplay as the others is the same problem shadow fall had.
