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

      Infamous 2: Sucker Punch Responds!

      Ken Schramm: There are new ways to travel. Trust me, we have some surprises that we aren't going to reveal. There are some big powers actually, some big parkour powers that we haven't revealed yet. [In terms of size], it's relatively the same size. If anything New Marais is bigger. The difference there is that Infamous 1 was three islands whereas Infamous 2 is two islands, and sort of like this swamp blockade area that we have. The main storyline does develop on two islands though.

      Joe Ishikura: I think one of the cooler parts about it is that there's a lot more variety out there in the districts themselves.
      Ken Schramm: Well, the functionality is a little bit different in [your] powers this time around. What he's referring to is that in Infamous 1 there were a lot of RPG elements. There's still some of that – some of the upgrades, but more importantly, it's not about upgrading the grenades, say, three stages of good and three stages of bad, like we did, right? We just have six to eight options, of different grenades. You choose now, which ones you want to go into a battle scenario with, allowing you a directional left to make those quick switches. You can go from one to another - just like that. [clicks fingers] It's more about the variety and variances of the powers rather than the upgrading of powers. Now don't get me wrong – there are some powers that you can still upgrade, but [it's about choice]…

      Coming back to the RPG aspect I was talking about, I want to make sure there's a distinction here. In Infamous 1, if you take grenades and you upgrade them three levels, it felt like we were keeping these powers [the three for the opposite karma] away from you. In the variances now, let's say you've got eight. There's still going to be two or three that are associated with karma, but you still get five or six more, you just don't get two or three.
      Joe Ishikura: You absolutely get to impact the way the game ends… Within the main storyline itself we have much bigger changes that go through it. We know that players loved playing the [original] game twice, so we decided about 20-25% of the game is actually going to be exclusive content for one side or the other. And so, [karma's] a really big choice. And of course, some of these choices have even cooler consequences, like the Kuo or Nix choice, where you either get the ice powers or the napalm/fire-based powers. So those are the big changes that we made – the big choices that players make, but we've got a lot of little stuff too.

      We tried to make it so you have even more opportunities to both express your karmic state, but in addition to that, one of the funner things we do is that we try to entice you to go the opposite route. Our favourite [example] is the Blast Shard carrier. We've brought back Blast Shards from Infamous 1. They're these collectables that power you up, and to the average pedestrian they're just kinda cool looking things, so we decided that – you know what? – let's say some of the pedestrians picked up some of these Blast Shards. If you're playing good and you want that Blast Shard? The only way to get it is to knock 'em down. So it's a really tiny moment in the game, but we tried to pepper those all around the world.
      We actually honestly haven't figured that out yet. What we have figured out is – yes, you will be able to take your save game with you. Now, what bonuses we offer that Infamous 1 player that finished the game and transfers out over to Infamous 2, we're still trying to work that out, but it will happen. We want to make sure that people know – if you haven't played Infamous 1, a) go play it!, but if you haven't, you're not going to get punished. You're just going to start setting your karmic state right off the bat. Everybody gets the same powers and everything like that. [The players that did finish Infamous 1] will just be able to get their karmic state and there'll be a few other bonuses…
      Go Noles!!! >>----->

          inFAMOUS 2: The Beast is Coming


          Here at Sucker Punch we're tired. We're whipped. Game development is a sprint. You run as hard as you can, then keep running. The problem is the goal line sometimes move mid-race. When you set out to make a game you sort of have an idea of what it'll ultimately be... but that's not what [...]

                I never got around to playing the first one. The demo was fun, maybe I should pick it up and give it a go to see if I want to pick up Infamous 2.
