Superheroes and action-adventure video games are two of my favorite things in life, so I happily snatched up the new PlayStation-only title, Infamous. When announced, the exclusive shouldered a heavy burden—would it deflate under high expectations, or earn PlayStation a shining gold star that would bump the console up a notch in the competitive industry? Infamous didn’t just have the concern of the gaming community to worry about, though. Reviewing a game involving two of my specialties meant my critic’s eye would be sharper than usual. So how did Infamous fare in the heat of the flames? The answer might pleasantly surprise you, or just make you angry. You decide.
