inFamous 2 Revealed in E3 Trailer

Finally. The Prototype Infamous war ends. I was Prototype all the way, nothing gets better than over-the-top violence in the far reaches of NY, but cmon. Nothing competes with an awesome sequel.

Hmmm, not sure what to make of this. Half the appeal of inFamous' character and story for me was that sense of "the right guy in the wrong place at the wrong time". Cole was just some random courier that "had greatness thrust upon him" and decided to stand up for the good of the city and his friends - the everyman. He was plain and ordinary and just got on with doing the shit that needed to be done.

This cat looks like he spends hours in front of the mirror each day before he goes out to battle the forces of evil and quips like a broody emo with a chip on his shoulder. Not digging it.

Also, did anyone get a "Dark Knight" vibe? Almost identical orchestral music, seedy city underbelly, protagonist perching on rooftops before the moon and forcing an unnecessarily low voice? And no daytime footage, anyone notice that? I hope the whole game isn't set at night; I enjoyed romping about Empire City in the daytime sometimes.

Regardless, as long as it brings the same acrobatic open-world shenanigans as the first then I'm down. It was mostly the impeccable gameplay that made inFamous such an awesome experience.

Loved the first one, but the dude looks and sounds like a moron. Tribal tattoos on his arms. Totally rad, bro.

Why does the "iconic look" link go to a screenshot of the prototype main character? The main character in infamous 1 looked a hell of a lot like he does in this... you guys are on crack. Prototype and infamous are not the same game.

Alright, normally I would be ripping on this game for eliminating the original voice of Cole, and pretty much eliminating everything plot related to the first...However I noticed this "new" Cole has what appears to be ice abilities in addition to electricity. So my assumption is that the Infamous series has a kind of "different timeline/reality" concept, which I think is cool.

But if they're actually trying to follow the original plot, then this game will fail story wise. I didn't get any sense of the original Cole in this trailer preview, and I really had an attachment to him in the first game.

Is that a new voice actor or is the super compressed audio playing tricks on my ears?

Do fucking want! I like the new look and if it has destructable buildings and such, all the better.

Looks great. Infamous was a masterpiece and I look forward to this game.

Congratulations Sony on your E3 victory.
