The demo for inFamous came out today and I just got done playing through it. I am a little disappointed in that this demo doesn’t give you a good enough feel for the main character. You are suppose to be this bad ass superhero type of guy yet the demo neuters that and instead makes you feel like a normal guy that can shoot electricity out of your hands.
Sucker Punch of course nailed the control mechanics for running around and climbing. It was real fluid and jumping from rooftops to small railings was so simple it felt like it was on auto pilot.
My main gripe about this demo, which I hope doesn’t carry over to the retail release, is that the enemies are sharpshooters. No matter where I went, they would hit me with deadly accuracy. Annoying as hell. I had to do a certain mission over and over again cause I got bitch slapped so many times by rocket wielding enemies. The graphics were nothing to write home about but not too terrible.
With the game coming out next week, I hope that this demo was an early demo before the game was finished. Otherwise, I am gonna waste $60 on another failed PS3 exclusive game (damn you Killzone 2).
