Agreed...and a story fit for a "straight to video hell" DVD.

Anyone else think that looks INCREDIBLY lame?

Bolt Stream sounds fantastic though

Will have to see that in-game first. Imagine doing that from a really high building...it might look cool.

Shin-Ra · 04-06-2011, 11:23 PM

Definitely something that needs to be judged in motion, but I like the phoenix-ness of it.

Diesel · 04-06-2011, 11:24 PM

I like the description of exploding in a storm of bad***ness....okay so that's not exactly what it said

...but that picture strikes me as LAME.

Hopefully it's just a bad timing for a screencap and the actual move is more impressive

Monkey · 04-06-2011, 11:28 PM

LOL, it looks pretty bad in the still but maybe in motion it will be fine.

Elandyll · 04-07-2011, 02:55 AM

As said above, I find the Phoenix-ness of it actually cool.

So ...different tastes I guess.

Wait, Cole has fire powers now? I thought he was the parkour version of Elektro?

Blu-Curry · 04-07-2011, 04:42 AM

These videos are a few months old, but i for one have never seen them, so i'm not sure if they've already been posted or not:

1. Fort Gameplay:

2. Graveyard Gameplay:

(I noticed in this video that sometimes Cole's shocking powers allow you to see your human enemy's skeleton

)

3. (Another) Compound Gameplay:

(This time, you can see the fillable melee meter for a special finisher).

You get fire powers if you side with your negative karma friend, or ice powers for siding with your positive karma friend.

(Still retain electric though)

Ah, that's kind of cool. I need to actually pay attention to these games instead of arguing about stupid hacker crap.

You can see all the IGN-revealed new powers in this trailer and a spring-launch ice power.

inFAMOUS 2: The Quest for Power
+ Posted by Brian Fleming // Sucker Punch Productions

[NEW TRAILER]

Today I’m here to talk about everyone’s favorite topic: powers! More specifically, how does Cole manage to improve on is already impressive set of electrical abilities?

For those of you who don’t know the original inFAMOUS story, Cole’s electrical powers appear when he’s caught in the blast of a mysterious device called the Ray Sphere. Cole gains more and more abilities, becomes more and more powerful, and survives the gauntlet of Empire City… but he also is given a glimpse into his future. He realizes that even at the height of his powers, he is no match for the challenge that awaits. A battle with a great Beast looms, and Cole isn’t ready to face it.

So in inFAMOUS 2, Cole travels South to New Marais to trace a path to the man behind the Ray Sphere technology, Dr. Sebastian Wolfe. With buddy Zeke riding shotgun, they set off to find the key to the next step in Cole’s evolution and a new level of power– powers that will be necessary if Cole hopes to survive the upcoming battle.

When Cole and Zeke eventually track down Dr. Wolfe, he explains that over years of experimenting, he had isolated the specific type of energy responsible for all genetic mutations. Dr. Wolfe’s technology—like the Ray Sphere—was all created to concentrate and manipulate this energy. To most people a dose of this mutative energy is fatal—but for a small fraction, the energy unlocks their untapped potential. These rare individuals are called Conduits, and of course Cole is one of them.

Wolfe has also developed a device—called a Blast Core—which can store this type of energy safely for an extended period of time… Over the years, he’s built and charged six of these Blast Cores. So to continue his evolution, Cole will need to locate these all-important Blast Cores, and absorb their energy into his body. But Wolfe fears the Blast Cores will fall into the wrong hands, so he has moved them to safe locations around the city — and Cole will have to hunt them all down.

Of course our story will take some important twists and turns along the way, we’ll meet other Conduits, and as in the original inFAMOUS game, your choices about what kind of person you are. But no matter which path Cole follows, one thing remains the same: without the Blast Cores he won’t survive.

Love that launching ability

The phoenix-looking attack definitely looked better in that short shot than in the image

PS3-Playb3yond · 04-08-2011, 02:38 AM

WOW! I didn't think they could surpass the Powers trailer of the first Infamous but they did. The song is probably not as good but the powers are amazing!

This new guy that did the voice-over for Cole, I can't tell him apart from the guy that did the voice-over for the first one.

Then again it's been a long time since I've played Infamous.

Shin-Ra · 04-09-2011, 01:08 AM

More IGN screenshottage. I love the lighting.

I saw the Firebird Strike in a video the other day, it doesn't look that bad in action.

Diesel · 04-12-2011, 03:28 AM

The new images look very good...every batch of new images makes the game look more interesting.

Yea, I mentioned a few posts up that it definitely looked better in motion in the brief shot of it from the video posted.

With them already having an ice ally, i'm disappointed they have an ice villain in the game as well.
