Ben Yahtzee says Infamous is better than prototype - Blu-ray Forum

Gamma_Winstead · 07-04-2009, 06:28 PM

In his recent review of Prototype, Yahtzee compared the two games and at the end, stated that they were tied. He said he would declare a winner based on which ever company sent him a picture of the other company's main character wearing a bra... and they both did so. Here is his article

Awesome! I love Yahtzee's reviews, so cynical, but beautiful in their own way.

Grim Reaper · 07-04-2009, 07:16 PM

i had prototype. i took it back the next day.

PH3AR · 07-04-2009, 07:46 PM

Infamous was so much better than prototype

CMM · 07-04-2009, 07:49 PM

IGN agrees.

9.0/10 - Infamous
7.5/10 - Prototype.

Sorry, i don't want to be "that guy" but IGN gave inFamous a 9.2 lol. It's just that much better!

I don't think i've seen a game critic give Prototype a higher score than inFamous.

Mine were from IGN UK, who gave it a 9.0

(It automatically shows the rating from the country you are in)

lol Ohhhhhhh i remember seeing that now! The site always makes announcements when the UK review is out. Despite the small score differences, we can all agree that the game is awesome.

Sorry, i don't want to be "that guy" but I can't stand Yahtzee. His reviews were funny once or twice, but now I find them incredibly annoying.

Anyhow, I'd say inFamous was better of the two. The pictures seem like a tie. I don't understand the fascination with unicorns.

So would I, but Prototype has a bit more freedom and action than inFAMOUS.

Then again, inFAMOUS has a Karma system.

So the bickering in the Prototype vs Infamous poll wasn't enough we needed a stand alone thread for it?

Yeah. I mean, the discussion can all be at the poll, right?

Shameless self-promotion there. This thread seems just as relevant as that one. Keep both or merge both into an inFamous thread, since the poll wasn't even close.

Gamma_Winstead · 07-05-2009, 12:44 AM

Seeing as this thread is specifically about yahtzee's decision.. NO. We do need another thread since yahtzee isn't our poll.
