This game is going to be so awesome.

I really liked how we can zoom in! That is a nice touch.

Re: Infamous (by Sucker Punch)

that does look bad ***.

I wonder how they are going to handle the health system? Do you just regenerate with time or are they having a health bar that you need orbs to raise etc?

Does anyone know if your leaping ability will get better with time ala crackdown? I see you can kinda of fly/hover in the vid but i wonder if your powers increase as you go along....

Re: Infamous (by Sucker Punch)

About the health system. This is from an old IGN preview.

Luckily, Empire City is filled with places to get a fix. By clicking in on the left stick, the onscreen radar fills with little blue lightning bolts that Cole can track down and get a hit from -- stuff such as telephone stations, power terminals, and whatever else is around. This balance of fighting and juicing is going to be a tightrope players have to learn to walk. During my demo, I found myself running headlong into battles, running out of power, and getting capped before I could get to the nearest refueling icon. Although health is regenerative, if the bits of red creep onto the screen and everything begins to go black and white, consuming the spark of a parked car or light pole might mean you make it through a tussle with the Reapers. Although I didn't get the chance to play any missions like it, Sucker Punch says they're going to be battles and tasks that take Cole into blacked-out areas and leave him to figure out how to survive and at what cost.

As for his leaping ability getting better, I have yet to read anything about that, so I would doubt it does.

Sony is promoting "An Electrifying Announcement" to be revealed on April 27 for both Infamous and Uncharted 2.

Re: Infamous (by Sucker Punch)

Some high priced PS3 bundle?

[Flawless]

Re: Infamous (by Sucker Punch)

With Uncharted 2 not coming out until later this year, I doubt they would announce a bundle that far in advanced. I'm thinking more along the lines of Infamous coming with an Uncharted 2 demo or multiplayer beta like what Microsoft did with Crackdown and Halo 3. Also, could be separate announcements pertaining to each game. Uncharted 2 is rumored to have multiplayer, maybe Infamous will too.

Would be great if Infamous has multiplayer.

that was my first thought as well. Sold a heap of crackdown's so it might work with infamous.

inFamous Shocks Us With Uncharted 2 Multiplayer Beta

The switch on Sony's "electrifying announcement" may have just been flipped, as a Best Buy pre-order box for inFamous reveals the existence of a multiplayer beta test for Uncharted 2.

Yesterday Sony began teasing "an electrifying announcement" to take place on April 27th regarding both Sucker Punch's inFamous and Naughty Dog's Uncharted 2: Among Thieves. Today a reader sent us this photo of a batch of newly opened Best Buy pre-order placeholder boxes for inFamous, which indicate that not only do pre-orders score players early access to the inFamous demo, they also receive a voucher for entry into the multiplayer beta test for Uncharted 2.

They key word here is multiplayer. Announcing that the sequel to one of the best single-player games on the PlayStation 3 is adding a multiplayer component certainly qualifies as electrifying. I'm certain we'll hear much more on this come April 27th.

You only have to pre-order if you want access to the Infamous demo early. It will be available to download for everybody on May 21.

Re: Infamous (by Sucker Punch)
