Rating: TBD
Help everyman Cole deal with his newfound power over electricity in this open-world action game exclusive to the Playstation 3. Will you be a hero or turn the city against you?
Why It's Hot:
inFamous marks the return of Sucker Punch Productions, best known as the force behind the beloved Sly Cooper games on the Playstation 2. These guys definitely know how to make a good game. Also, lightning rules.
Why It's Not:
Essentially a superhero game starring a new superhero, inFamous has critics cautiously optimistic. Open-world games can be amazing (hello, Fallout 3), but can also feel like they're populated with lifeless drones. Which side of the fence will inFamous electrocute?
