inFAMOUS 2

[Blu-Curry]

haha, The video was quite funny and offered some new insight. Definitely worth a watch!

One question i would have asked at the conference was whether we still need to collect Blast Shards to give Cole more prolonged uses for his powers (an aspect which i thought was good) or for trophies (which i didn't haha). The videos haven't shown anything with Shard usages (the guy playing the demo even exclaimed, "I've got unlimited ammo!" while using megawatt hammers or something) and they keep on saying Cole is already a powerful superhero from the first game, and he will only get stronger.

There is lol , i think they decided on that a month or two after the game was released. However, the project doesn't seem to be gaining as much ground as the Uncharted movie, unless a lot is happening without being reported.

PlayStation Mag Provides Fresh Slew Of inFamous 2 Details

Firstly, how you played the first game will factor into the second as inFamous 2 will detect your save info and secondly, there's at least one choice in the sequel that, after you make it, will take you down one particular path. This sort of implies there will be a reason to go through the campaign again... Also, don't forget about the collectibles: a new character named Dr. Sebastian Wolfe wants the Blast Cores that are scattered around New Marais; collect them, bring 'em to the good doctor, and enjoy the fruits of your labor.

Thankfully I saved mine. After Uncharted 3, this is the game I'm looking forward to the most next year.

I deleted my 100% hero save (for whatever reason) but I still have my 92% completion anti-hero save. Better than nothing I suppose.

It'd be nice if it pulled from if you have the trophies for each side since I do

A Few More

Cole made some changes in his life after InFamous, and a new comic series planned will explain exactly what happened between the first game and InFamous 2. DC Comics and Sucker Punch have announced an upcoming collaboration that will see Cole flattened out and placed on a newsstand.

It probably won't explain why Cole originally became someone completely different when we got a first glimpse at InFamous 2, but it would be a hilarious nod if the change was at least mentioned. Perhaps a first panel showing Cole cutting his hair and burning his wardrobe?

The InFamous comic book series will span six issues and show what Cole and his acquaintances had to go through in their efforts to save Empire City. We apparently already know it didn't go well, because Cole is forced to flee to New Marais in InFamous 2. Still, the comic will show why it didn't go so well, and "reveal sinister motives, dark secrets, and introduce a new threat to Cole and all of mankind," according to Sony. It'll be written by William Harms and illustrated by Eric Nguyen, with cover art by Doug Mahnke.

Having played and loved InFamous, a game that makes the choice to be good or evil integral, I can see how this comic series will be a problem for around half of the franchise's audience. Unlike a game, a comic book cannot give players two choices, unless it ends up having an upside-down cover on the reverse side and is two stories in one.

The accompanying cover art shows Cole with his "good" powers, so evidently the Cole found in the comic book will be the nice version. Though the book is said to lead into InFamous 2, if you were a jerk in InFamous it could be a huge disconnect. Also, how will it handle the game's major choice at the end that had sweeping consequences for Cole himself?

It might be just a comic book, but InFamous highlights the issue with creating games that allow for choice and attempting to merge them with linear media. But hey, it's an InFamous comic book, and that could be pretty cool anyway. The first issue will be released in March 2011.

Thankfully I still have mine. So we're going for a Mass Effect/Dragon Age save file approach here? I like it.

I'd love to get those inFamous comics. I've never actually gotten into comics before, but I would gladly do so in this case.
