the game is okay play with caution with your kids

I don't have a PS3 but I have played the game before and i really love this game. It's my favorite game on the PS3.

A little violence, but no blood. Some cursing. Game can be played as a "bad guy", but remember parents, this isn't ANYTHING like Grand Theft Auto or similar games.

Fun game but you can kill anyone 2 characters that sware nonstop. Reapers attack in game and comic scenes drugs :(

inFAMOUS is an entertaining game of its genre in which the player explores a disaster-struck city destined for its anti-climatic suicide. Villains known as the "Reapers" wreck havoc on the broken city, as it has been quarantined by the government and the cops have abandoned their role in the community and cowered into the shadows. The gamer will play as an ordinary man named Cole whom managed to survive an unexpected and very powerful explosion that threw the city into its condition. (the game does not explain how the explosion happened; it's arguably not even an explosion at all. What seems to be an electric dome forms over the city and streaks of what seem to be lightning strike the ground below) After awakening from an unconscious state, Cole finds that he has obtained superhuman electric powers. The city is collapsing on itself (figuratively), and the only person who can clean the city is none other than Joe Blow who woke up with superpowers. Players will venture throughout the city and fight off hordes of Reapers and Conduits ruling the streets, help bystanders with tasks and ensure the protection of the citizens of the city. As for inappropriate content, there is a boss character that is said to be rather revealing. Yet, I can assure parents that their tweens and teens won't overly notice it unless they're really trying to. (it's only one scene that takes a little less than 7 minutes to complete. The rest of the game is squeaky clean when it comes to that sort of thing) As for violence, players can kick, punch, zap and blow villains off of rooftops and leech their energy in a semi-disturbing manner. Also, if they would like to choose the path of Infamy, then they have the opportunity of chaining people to the ground and stomping on the innocent, throw cars on top of people, shoot gasoline tanks near people and throw them sky-high with their new found superpowers. As The language is infrequently coarse, but it should be noted that the word 'hell' is used quite a bit during the course of the game. As for blood, it smears the screen when Cole is hurt. (it isn't as bloody as the screen in popular games such as Modern Warfare 2) Overall, this is a very good game. The graphics are excellent, the sound is impeccable, and the gameplay is nothing short of fun. This game has been marked down from $60.00 to $30.00, making it quite affordable. Even two years later this game is entertaining audiences; it will most likely intrigue you as well. Go out and by inFAMOUS today. It's worth your money.

This is the best sandbox style game I have ever played. Its difficulty settings are optional, so that the newbie can enjoy as much as the hardcore veteran player. The controls are excellently well made; this is a really cool, darker look at the superhero thing. The appropriateness of the game is actually kind of a moral choice; do you become evil, obtain powers of destruction that will probably kill civilians as you fight bad guys, spread discord in the city and suck the life out of people, or do you heal injured civilians, restore unity, and learn powers that heal you and stress accuracy and defense? Its ultimatly your choice whether to be the good guy or the bad guy, and if we are talking appropriatness for children, being the good guy yields gameplay very much like a wonderful superhero movie. You are a character named Cole who has mysteriously obtained the power to wield electricity as a weapon since a huge blast detonated and destroyed your city. You also gain the power to fall from any height without getting hurt, to do crazy parkour moves, and to shoot lightling in a kind of 3rd person shooter gameplay. Its a platformer, sandbox, collecting game, semi roleplay, game that does an excellent job. You may find yourself simply spending hours just running from building to building, admiring the indestructible lighting bolt of a man you are. However, for those who choose to play as an evil character, the game becomes much darker and obviously loses all moral goodness by default. Its a cool choice for adults, and interesting for kids. But I knew a parent who would only let her kid play it if they played it as a good guy, and for younger kids, I understand that stance. This game has mature language and a dark feel to it, but violence wise, if your the good guy, its really not that bad; the only thing you'll be killing is cloaked monsters that don't even bleed.

This is a good game. Very violent. Minimal blood and gore, but you can kill gangsters, and innocent civilians. You can blow up cars, gas stations, and various other objects. There is drug reference in this game too. Bad role models come in with bad Chole and Zeke. Zeke threatens the well fare of thousands, by setting off an electric bomb so he can get powers. The sex comes in when you are doing a mission and your friend Zeke talks about having sex with his friend's sister. You kill innocent people, and through out the story innocent people get shot with guns, electrocuted, blown up, and fall off of buildings dying. Blood is minimal.

this game is really fun!!!! im about to beat it for the third time i got 86 percent of the trophies..but its a great game it might have some few words like the b word. s word. d word. and a** but u dont haft to pay attention to tht it has amazing special affects great story cant wait for the second one to come out but i reccomend this for 13 year olds...just because of the language....

If you haven't played Infamous your missing out on one of the best games of all time. You play as Cole, after a huge blast that levels tons of the city you gain electrical superpowers and can choose to save the city, or be their reaper. There is quite a bit of swearing but it's nothing you don't hear numurous times over and over again in middle school (yes, I do go to middle school). If you're concerned about the messages note that if you have you're kid play as good is gives off good messages, the city comes back to life, people love you, you get back in contact with your girlfriend, and you get you're own set of unique powers. On the other hand... if you play as evil many civilians are going to be killed and Cole just views them as weaklings that he owes nothing too. Also if you play as evil it can induce bad themes such as: killing civilians is fun, use power to get what you want, do what benifits YOU and let others fend for themselves. But if you have a mature kid this shouldn't matter. It's a GAME as should be viewed as such. But other than that this game absulutly delivers, zapping the gangs that control the city could be a good message, Cole tries to get rid of the evil gangs that kill people... but to do so involves killing the gangs. I'm a tween and this game is just fine. Pick it up if you can, if not you're missing out on a gaming legend.
