You basically get two games in one. Not just for the story, but different powers based on whether you choose to be a Hero or to be Infamous. I have just played through as a Hero and I am now starting to play evil.
A minor complaint is that the game may automatically bump you up to the hardest difficulty after the first few minutes. It's still a good challenge at that level. It never reaches an annoying level of difficulty.
What's great about it: Powers are varied and very fun. Huge open world with solid frame rate.
What's not so great: The story is it's weakest point.

Well I watched this knowing nothing about Watchmen and I immediately loved the story. I think it is just as good as the Dark Knight. It is very dark and engrossing. It does have a plot and I liked it very much. The characters are very well done and you really get to know them all. It looks great too! I mean come on! It's Zack Snyder directing! What I really liked was the fact that for a three hour movie it really didn't seem to be that long. There wasn't many slow spots in the movie. It also has a very interesting sound track. There are some odd choices you would think at first, but then you remember it's set in 1985. To sum it up it's a very cool movie. You don't have to take my word for it. Even Roger Ebert gave it 4/4 stars.
What's great about it: The look, the story, doesn't feel like 3 hours at all.
The Cell, a movie some critics labeled all style and no substance, might be the best-looking DVD on the market. To add to that feat, the included supplemental material provides depth and substance, making it clear that the movie's visuals were a labor of love. There aren't enough compliments for the widescreen anamorphic 2.35:1 presentation. Director Tarsem's imagination explodes from the screen, making for an intense, colorful tour de force. The Dolby Digital 5.1 Sound is also stunning, from the twisted sound effects to Howard Shore's wicked score. The "isolated score" audio track makes for a truly spooky experience. Since the visuals of the movie are so mind-bending, the "Behind the Scenes" area and audio commentaries are engrossing. "Style as Substance: Reflections on Tarsem" is a featurette thick with hyperbole, but the cast and crew who praise Tarsem seem justified at every film clip. Vince Vaughn seems oddly agitated during his segments, making for an interesting conclusion. Tarsem's commentary is a candid, rapid-fire treat; he leaves no stone unturned in passionately dissecting his debut feature film. The production team commentary is also interesting, though the fascinating "Visual Effects Vignettes" go deeper into key set pieces. "Interactivities," a brain map and empathy test, are worth a look. The empathy test is meant for fun, but it's pretty powerful in its ability to enlighten and/or disturb. Filmographies and two suspenseful trailers round out this landmark DVD.

First off not concerning the movie. Uh to the person who edited this site it's spelled cinematography not cinamatography(hope you don't take that as a spiteful remark)...Seriously people...Anyway the movie is great! It's an original story not a movie with recycled ideas. It is visually stunning without detracting from the actual plot. You really get a sense of what it would be like to go into someone else's mind, and you really feel suspense. And another thing you don't really feel cheated by the ending.. Well at least I didn't but I suppose some people will. A definite buy for ten dollars!
What's great about it: Set design, Costume Design, Art Direction, Cinematography

Cannot wait for this game!!! This game along with God of War III and Gran Turismo 5 in my opinion will be the best games of 2010! Yeah I didn't give any other ratings other than the overall but I definitely expect it to be perfect in all aspects!
What's great about it: Looks insanely awesome!
What's not so great: Like GOW 3...Comes out in 2010
