Prototype vs. Infamous

Bought inFamous yesterday and played thru it last night and it's pretty fun. The characters are pretty bland and generic except Cole which is ok because he reminds me of this guy and his sexy voice.
 
That review made me "larf" but seriously if your interested in the story then your choice has to be infamous. But if you want blood and gore a-la god of war then you should play prototype.
 
I just played the demo for Infamous, and although I'm quick to judge, I honestly thought it was horrible. The animation was shit- Cole runs like a handicapped person, shooting enemies doesn't do shit to them and it takes too long to chase them down for a melee attack, climbing is slow and redundant, and the train mission they give you is unbelievably boring. It doesn't even seem innovative- the Wolverine game offers more action than this. I understand that this is just one mission, but I can't imagine it getting much more exciting with these controls. If someone would care to correct me, I'd like to better understand why it's getting so much praise.
