    Some of the uh

    Less complicated animations are jerky, yeah, like shovin' as you walk

    But the rest, like running up a building and then cannonballing into a helicopter, whipfisting another, and then stomping the ground from fifty feet up with the result of a huge crater and shockwave?

    Smooth as all hell

    I think what you mean is all the fast animations look better because there's so much going on but when it's a very simple movement the jerkiness is far more-apparent.

    Yeah pretty much, and, when you're doing the faster stuff you often are blurred and have the tentacle things around your body and red stuff everywhere

    I think the best one was when he was completely obscured by the large black guy and then he decks him out of the way.

    Also, at 1:02 is he using that army dude as a human shield, or just toting him around like a bauss?

    The latter.

    The only shield in the game is an organic one that you plow shit over with as you hold it up in front of you and sprint.

    The last few lines are my favourite thing out of the entire newspost.

    Granny with minigun was great, though.

    "They're local, so when they asked if they could drop by and show it off, we didn't hesitate. I looked over at Gabe's screen, and saw a space shuttle crash into a schoolhouse. I don't think that was the goal. For my part, in order to secure a subterranean whooziwatsit, I needed to crack the crust of the earth. I wanted to create an excavator, and when I entered the word, it wanted to know: did I mean a tracked construction vehicle, or a person who excavates?

    Um, SOLD."

    the best one is when he shoves a dude so hard into a car bonnet it crumples

    And then the dude just stands there and complains.

    The lack of outlines on the speech bubbles is really throwin' me off. I'm sure he was going for a certain style, but I don't think it worked very well in this particular layout. His hair looks chopped in the first (non) frame.

    Yeah, I got into the PA fandom a bit late, but apparently the hypertext used to link to an mp3, then they stopped. And there are a few years where the hovering tells you nothing. Now they've fixed it for the most part.

    yeah so because of this I'm going tback to find out what he's listened to

    and I'm surprised how many times he's posted lyrics from songs I've listened to a hell of a lot of times and not recognized from the snippet

    I feel like because Prototype and InFamous came out at the same time, that like two game companies had a bet with each other or something.

    I'd have to play Prototype, but Infamous is a damn fun game. My only complaint is the ridiculous moral choices, where you go to a faded camera and your character explains, in gravelly Christian Bale-Batman voice exactly what both moral choices mean.

    It felt kind of tacked on, honestly.

    I could see having fun with InFamous, but i'm addicted to the kind of fast-movement in Hulk:UD and it looks like Prototype is offering the same if not better. From the demo, InFamous looks like a very different playstyle.

    Also I don't have a PS3.
