Infamous does a lot of things right, but unfortunately it does enough wrong to keep it from being unique. As a platforming action game, Infamous is fantastic. It has a Prince of Persia type feel to it and there are a fair amount of fun platforming and collection challenges to ...

Not quite beyond good and evil

Certain comic book storylines have been around long enough that few people bother to question their logic…provided they remain within their original fiction holding cell.

Morality seems to be a big trend in gaming recently. Infamous marks the latest in a string of releases that puts the player's moral fiber to the test over the course of the story. What separates Sucker Punch's latest from, say, Mass Effect or Bioshock, is the impact that player's ...

At this point, it feels like preaching to the choir to say that there isn't much incentive toward owning a PlayStation 3.
