Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions
Execution · Practiced Mastery
A scripted action romp testing combat timing and memorised boss patterns.

Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions
Combo timing and traversal demand moderate hands
Reads0 vs 0
Same score on reads - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
inFamous 2
Scripted enemy factions, no adaptation
Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions
Bosses and enemies are fully scripted, never adaptive
Variance1 vs 1
Same score on variance - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
inFamous 2
Static world, fixed encounters
Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions
Linear levels with almost nothing hidden or random

inFamous 2
Karma-gated power trees shape the run
Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions
Upgrade choices and learning boss patterns carry the rest
A matching score does not mean a matching test. Two games can both sit at 10 on execution and demand completely different things of you - which is why the reasoning above matters more than the number beside it.
