Huzzah! More Comic styled super Hero action with bolts of electricity and... you know, how about I save my excitement for E3?

Calumon: His name is Cole but he fires electricity? What kind of Superhero name is that?
I always thought with a name like Cole MacGrath he'd be a crime solving dog:

For some reason hair makes him look really stupid.
Are we 100% verified that that is definately Cole?
I tried opening up that sixthaxis website link but I got 404'd.

Oh dear god... please tell me they aren't? I beg you to tell me, you're only wishing it will happen and the plans aren't already in the pipeline. Right...? Right?

It's probably going to be the assassin's creed path of sequeling, by adding lots of new extras, and slowly dying by being stuffed with too many ideas.

P.S. What's the point of putting it on XBox and PS3? This is just like what they're trying to do with MGS Rising.

The only thing that I want to see is more powers (aside from fixing the occasional bug). It would be cool (IMO) if they made an entire skill tree. It would make it so that you would still unlock important skills (like the ones they give you in the original), but then you could specialize in certain skills which would unlock more skills that are like it.

Oh and make it so the enemies can't snipe you from a mile away.

EDIT: Also, maybe a power that would blast you off the ground to give you a good 50ft head start on climbing would be worth it. It might be more similar to Prototype that way but it would speed up the climbing which people were always complaining about.

Yeah that would be awesome, boosting into the air

And also, it's Cole from the first game

Well, unless it's some other courier-looking dude with electro powers, I'd say it's him alright. Maybe this is just the first draft of the new Cole and the design will change throughout the development...I hope so.

I loved the first game and this new Cole design didn't leave a good first impression on me for the sequel.

Oh, great, I just can't wait for another round of that competition. >_<

Anyway, I'm happy that there's going to be another inFAMOUS, as there's certainly a lot of ground left to cover, and a lot of improvements to be made.
I'm not quite sold on the new look just yet, but it is in theme with the New Orleans location, so I'll give it some credit.

I can't wait. I loved the first one. I don't have a problem with his darker hair, it's the t-shirt/necklace combo I don't like.
I just hope that [minor SPOILERS?] they can make The Beast a good fight without it being long and annoying like Kessler was. The guy seemed to sprout volcanoes out of the ground, it has to feel epic [end potential spoilers]

But Kessler is you, so hopefully we will become what he was

Yeah, that would be fun, but I just mean that the final boss fight wasn't so much a "wow this is so climactic and amazing!" as "wow this health bar is going down very slowly". I want it to feel big and spectacular, without having to resort to just being long.

i think yahtzee had at right with "his health bar is a 15ft mars bad, and your a diabetic".

the ending
(you were fighting yourself from the future... well done!!!)
was unfortuatly the worst part of that game.


as for getting up buildings faster. how about being able to fly up vertical cables or pipes on the sides of buildings?

Some more info! - Credits to TSX
_________________________________________________________

It?s set in New Orleans, except it?s not New Orleans, it?s a made up New Orleans called New Marais.
Cole isn?t younger, he?s just new, with a new voice actor.
He will be a super super hero, with better powers.

The camera?s a bit closer.
There are cut-scenes.
You can still jump up buildings.
There are melee weapons.
Zeke is still a nob, but he?ll be ?more helpful?.
More things ?happen? in the game

Sweet. I just hope that

Snip snippity snip
Everything this guy said - all pretty much the reasons that, while I do actually really like the game, I have yet to get around to finishing it. Guess at least now I have some motivation to do so....

Sucker Punch man, sorry 'bout that. Sucker Punch didn't go the way of Insomniac.

I read the GI cover story and apparently my guess was right about parkour + Superhero. In the story, they said that they were going to put more of an emphasis on parkour. Hahaha, I might actually buy this game, instead of renting it.
