What are the titles you're most looking forward to this year?
For me, the summer is pretty barren - inFamous is a must-buy next month (comes out May 26th), and there's a couple of others I might consider (Batman:AA, GhostBusters), but that's about it. Once September rolls around, though... Uncharted 2 is a big one, and GOW3, if it makes it out this year.
infamous looks alright. not too sure about batman and ghostbusters tho.
Yeah, I'll definitely rent Batman and Ghostbusters, but I'm wary about buying them outright - haven't decided yet. inFamous is the only one that's an absolute Day One purchase - I've already got it preordered. I'm also stoked that they're giving away the codes for the Uncharted 2 multiplayer beta with it, as both inFamous and Uncharted 2 are two of my main '09 games!

I really don't think it will - Prototype's been getting some very mediocre early reviews, and it looks too much like Hulk: Ultimate Destruction, which was done by the same devs. inFamous, OTOH, has been getting glowing early buzz - IGN has already stated that they're expecting it to be a Game of the Year contender.
To be fair, though, I DO agree that Prototype will sell better than inFamous on the 360... but only because inFamous is a PS3 exclusive.
The first REAL review for inFamous is out now (i.e., a review of the full game and not just a demo); OPM UK is giving it a 9/10. Saw it here:

I'll be more interested to see what it gets from major sites like IGN and how the Metacritic score ends up, but this is sort of what I was expecting so far!

The guys at Sucker Punch oughta be proud of that one - that ties it with Sly Cooper 2 for their best-reviewed game ever at IGN!
