Re: inFamous 2

Does anybody know if Playstation Plus users will have access to the InFamous 2 beta as well or not?

Sucker Punch is focused on making us as players feel powerful in Infamous 2. There are 50 powers for Cole to tinker with, and after playing for a bit, I can already tell I'm going to be experimenting like mad.

The Kinetic Pulse allowed me to levitate a car and then fire it off like a bullet -- I could even stand on the car, lift it, and fire it out from underneath Cole's feet. The Bolt Stream allows Cole to spray out mini-blasts of electricity like a machine gun, the Ionic Drain sucks the lifeforce from the bad guys around Cole, and the Firebird Strike has Cole fly for a brief second before exploding out in a burst of electricity.

The coolest power addition, though, isn't even a power; it's the quick-switch option. At any time in the game, I could hold left on the d-pad and assign the unlocked abilities to a button on the fly. I could try the napalm grenades, get sick of them, and easily assign an electrocution grenade without having to jump through menu hoops.

Re: inFamous 2

The beauty of the first game was that you didn't start out very powerful imo. I loved the process of getting stronger as the game went on and actually felt the game lost some of its charm when I was too strong at the end of the game. I much prefer the feeling of a vulnerable super hero like Spiderman than someone like Superman who is almost invincible.

Having all of these powers available could be fun but you have to have enemies just as powerful or at least force you to use some strategy to succeed. I just don't have a good feeling about this game right now. It looks more like a Star Wars Force Unleashed game where you just run around, mash on your power buttons and kick ***. Others may like it but I'm unsure if I will at the moment.

Re: inFamous 2

I didn't feel that powerful, but I was playing on hard and I held off on unloading with my heavier powers because of the splash damage since I was doing a hero run. Damn my need to protect the civilians.

Re: inFamous 2

Looks awesome to me. It wouldn't make sense to have him start out with nothing again, and several articles have already stated that the enemies would be harder to compensate.

Can't wait!

Re: inFamous 2

That game's gonna be sweet.

The fact that this game comes with an Uncharted 3 beta key makes it even sweeter.
