Day of rest, midgame review of inFAMOUS

I went and got inFAMOUS, since it’s been getting better reviews than Prototype. I’m not sure I get it.

Isn’t this the same game I’ve played a thousand times before? Somehow I find myself drawn in by it, which is a good thing. I’m not sure why it’s fun, though.

Good things:

The bad guys are creepy and memorable
Car explosions are both satisfying and effective
Nice unlocking system, fun stunts scoring

Bad things:

Moral choice? Really? Really?
Uneven framerate.
Can’t go inside, can’t ride vehicles.

Overall, 3/5.
