Game Pro: E3 2010: inFAMOUS 2

Game Pro: Developer Sucker Punch promises to improve upon the original InFamous in every possible way with their follow-up sequel. That means a bigger, badder experience with a whole lot more “BIFF!” and “POW!” to go along with the sweet parkour and electricity based powers.

What we’re talking about: The first InFamous was an enjoyable superhero flavored action romp, but it wasn’t without its faults. The sequel looks to change the sins of the past while also moving the franchise forward in a new direction.

Where we saw it: I was given a demonstration of the game consisting of a canned gameplay demo at a session with other members of the media. Present were several members of the InFamous 2 team.

They can start by fixing Cole back into actually who cole is.

Also, what's with 3rd world country based games? The enemines are always weak/lacking. I want to glyde across sky scrappers and shit. Who wants to run around some raggedy ass dirty towns/cities? Not me. I won't be buying this game unless they do some major ajustments. Keep in mind I loved the first one, got 100% on the trophies... Bring back the comic strips, bring MORE of them. Leave Cole as he is. Maybe give him some hair, but still. The sports shiz is retarded. I'm sick of sissy games, the first one looked WAY more brutal than this garbage.

Cevapi885742d ago

did you even pay attention to the trailer....maybe you should watch it until the end...you talk of how the 1st is more brutal yet we get ice powers, a weapon and much more freedom with Cole

frnkyl5742d ago

But... the city in inFamous 2 is based off of New Orleans.

Boody-Bandit5742d ago (Edited 5742d ago )

Man you have absolute mad skills to be able to know what the game is going to be with less than a 2 minute game trailer. Mad skills. /s

Did you even watch the E3 coverage? This is going to have a lot more depth and weapons at your disposal then the original. <- In other words more ways to lay down the pain. 1st must buy for me!

LordMarius5742d ago (Edited 5742d ago )

lol sissy games, let me guess you want some dudebro up on this beach. Grow up

no screens. no quotes from the devs.

and i love the last line: "Point in the development cycle: The devs stressed that the game was at the halfway mark, so expect another year or two before you can get your mitts on this one. "

another year or two? REALLY?

halfway through it's dev cycle is usually 12 months. inFAMOUS 2 will have a 2 year dev cycle. i imagine that development started soon after the first wrapped and shipped, and the trailer itself says 2011. so i imagine that the game will release a year from now. June or July 2011. that'll be another 12 months from now. two year dev cycle.

when a game engine is in place, you don't need 3 or 4 year development cycles. Sucker Punch got the hard stuff out of the way with inFAMOUS 1, so now it's all about really building on and fleshing out the game.

most games don't really shine until the sequel, even when the first is top notch (see the sequels to many of your favorite franchises).

in either case, inFAMOUS 2 is looking better than the original in every way. this internet "drama" concerning his character design is embarrassing. all these amazing features/upgrades, and the only thing people can talk about is Cole's tribal tattoos? REALLY? is it really THAT much of a big deal?

the thing that makes me laugh is that many of the people saying they want old Cole back are the same people that called him generic before.

i think this sums it up pretty well: http://i158.photobucket.com...

Is it just me or do recent Character revamps (splinter cell conviction/infamous 2) look a lot like Nathan Drake.

I want it too. Make it co-op as well.

-Foxtrot1020d ago

Yeah they had a lightning bolt in the shape of a question mark at the end of Infamous 2

They always went off the good ending for Cole so I think for Delsin it should be the bad ending

What he did in the bad ending, absorbing everyone’s powers, seemed like he was going to turn into something powerful.

Makes you feel like he could have been the real Beast and John was just an anomaly because of them messing with time

Sets up a Cole vs Delsin showdown

lukasmain1020d ago

How would fans feel about a reboot? You know to bring a new audience in? Not a good idea? Good idea?

anast1019d ago

Not a god idea. They let it sit for too long and the game hasn't been strong enough to carry itself all these years. There is so much other stuff out there right now.

masterfox1020d ago

Second Son was released in 2014 was an amazing game visually and gameplay wise, sometimes I play it again on the PS5 and seeing it run at 60 fps is something to behold(yes an almost 10 year old game), if you haven't done that on your PS5 try it you won't be disappointed, pure eye candy, a PS5 exclusive of Infamous would be amazing no doubt.

gold_drake1019d ago

meh, i want Cole to come back.

or maybe a reboot. with cole.

Older PlayStation games that we'd love to see on the PlayStation 5

From Xfire: "For a company with a three-decade-long history in gaming, Sony has done a crappy job at preserving its legacy. "

Flawlessmic1410d ago (Edited 1410d ago )

All the mgs games, all the ape escapes, silent hill 1-4, croc 1 and 2, legend of dragoon, tekken 3,tenshu, bushido blade, vagrant story, okami, ico, crash bash, gt4.

Thats just off the top of my head that i would play immediately, still so many more though that id love.

Welshy1409d ago

MGS, Silent Hill etc are no brainers, but you earned my thumbs up for our boi Croc. I talk about him all the time, it's an honour to find another man of culture.

Flawlessmic1409d ago (Edited 1409d ago )

Hahaha yea was one of my very first games i owned on ps1 as a child, great memories!!

Love to hear there other people out there that enjoyed the gem of a game that is croc 👌

RedDevils1409d ago (Edited 1409d ago )

Okami has HD version already. I want those Sly games though since PS3 and vita had it.

Flawlessmic1409d ago

Yea sly would be cool, i never got into those so would be a good opportunity for me to do so.

But yea theres so many games in sony catalogue we coukd be here all day listing titles.

Hopefully we all get the ganes we are hoping for.

outsider16241410d ago

Tenchu 1 and 2
Socom 1 and 2
MGS 1-3
MGS4
ICO

seanpitt231410d ago

RDR2 for me they can boost that up to 60fps with better graphic settings than last gen

Luc201410d ago

Folklore. It was such a unique and beautiful game. Great soundtrack. I still have my PS3 copy

The_Hooligan1410d ago

YES please! Also I would love to see Warhawk come back. Such an awesome game.

moriarty18891410d ago

The Resistance and a killzone series for me.

Bigman4k1410d ago (Edited 1410d ago )

If the PC can emulate the PS3, then for sure the PS5 would be able to do same. but dose Sony want it?

Mr Logic2072d ago

If there was money in it, then Sony would do it. People can bitch and moan all they want, but even if every person on this site used BC, that would still be a tiny fraction of gamers. Almost nobody really uses BC.

DethWish2072d ago (Edited 2072d ago )

I think there would be money if they made PS3 games downloadable through PSNow and added a bunch more.
Edit: I would get it if MGS4 was available

Mr Logic2072d ago

@DethWish

That would be an emulator. You're not making any sense.

DethWish2072d ago

Mr Logic, really? If PS5 could emulate PS3 games (BC) and PSNow would let you download and play PS3 games locally instead of streaming (like it lets you download PS4 games), wouldn't that be awesome? PSNow has some really interesting PS3 games, but I'd prefer to play them locally

MadLad2072d ago

Really?
Remasters of popular games do extremely well. MS basically hands them out for free. If people didn't want to play older games, then why do remasters sell so well?

anonymousfan2072d ago

I honestly would probably never ever use it... But I still think it would be pretty neat. Its one of the few avantages PC still has on console that is complete backwards compatibility. But for all the work needed to implement this I doubt it would be worth Sony's time.

Melankolis2072d ago

In my opinion.
The difference is independent emulator developer can build any emulator as an experiment that will be perfected for years, maybe more than 10 years. During that time, expect many glitch, bugs, and updates. They can do that because they do not have any obligation towards PC users or whatsoever.

Fos Sony, once they announce PS5 will be able to play PS3 games, they have to make it safe and playable for users. They do not want the emulator cause bricks, glitch, heating up or anything to the consoles and get sued for that.

Harkins17212072d ago

The amount of work it would require sony for each game probably isn't worth it. Maybe after rpcs3 is done they can patent it and use it. That's the dream lol

This has been going on for years any full game playable yet

EazyC2072d ago

Wish I never sold my PS3 for MGS IV alone, I'm dying to play it again

Gamerking822072d ago (Edited 2072d ago )

Any ps3 owner has too own this masterpiece . My disk drive has just gone on my old super slim . So I bought the digital version no questions ask . If you have a ps3 own this masterpiece that’s all I can say . I replay it every year and still find loads of enjoyment . The last true metal gear in my opinion . V was good and gameplay amazing , but it’s just not a metal gear quality story wise .
