My prefix is simple, though often confused,
It's to put down an object; one other than you.
My infix, not truly a word, but is slang,
once seen when teens were late to hang with the gang.
My suffix, spelled stately, means 2000 pounds,
but alternate spellings and meanings abound.
Though many people and places share my whole as a name,
in this case the title points you to a game.

Note: You only need to find the word the riddle refers to; you'll know the game if you get it.

I think the prefix is

lay

Could the infix be

ayt?

and the suffix is

ton/tonne

Not sure of the infix... but according to OP's comments below, the word is probably

Layton

And the game, I think, is:

Professor Games, specifically: Professor Layton and the Azran Legacy

  • $\begingroup$ Suffix correct. infix is more of an overlap between them $\endgroup$ Commented Sep 16, 2018 at 22:14
  • $\begingroup$ The first suffix guess. IT's not a third separate thing $\endgroup$ Commented Sep 16, 2018 at 22:14

  • $\begingroup$ Close enough. I meant the Professor Layton series as a whole. Take the accept. This site is the least nitpicky I've been in my life. $\endgroup$ Commented Sep 16, 2018 at 22:41
