Now I want a PS3 just to get the chance to shoot whatever that is with lightning.

 

[Dr. wonderful]

You mean the massive opponent that was talked about and the whole reason the bad guy targeted cole in the first place?

Yeah, because this is totally the first anyone heard of him.


But this is kind of cool, Cole likes he dress in his Infamous gear meaning this take place a week after the game ends.

If only Kessler knew what caused the beast, wrecking Empire city could have been avoided, but then we'd have no game. By the way...

Spoiler: Theory on the Beast

I think it's John. You recall he is ripped apart by the Ray-Sphere just like Dr. Manhattan was in Watchmen, regardless of the player's final "moral choice"? There was no sign of this thing until (apparently a week or so at most) after Kessler was killed, which occurs, story-wise, a few hours after John is "killed."

Is it coincidence that it appears in the same city? While it's possible there were simply no news reports (clearly broadcasted to Empire city throughout the game) about whole cities going quiet, I think there'd have been reports of the damn thing before Cole met it, sounding quite suprised.

I would think he just died, but what we see the whole game is evidence that thing makes physics it's *****. It's plausible it made John a demigod bent on killing Cole for letting him die that way, (ripped apart by what seems to be concentrated psychic energy, reasoning may be impaired somewhat) or maybe it truly made him a "beast," a mindless animal going after the only prey worth chasing. As Evil Cole put it "No one is stronger than me."

Of course, this doesn't explain how/why it persued Kessler is his time at all, but it's a theory.

 

[mike.boggs]

WTF is this that looks nothing like Cole!?!!? damned game animators.

 

[LaughingAtlas]

Sucker punch said no.

Alrighty, that being put to rest, can hardly wait for the next game's big revelation.

 

[twm1709]

finally the infamous trailer I was looking forward to...

Interesting but Sucker Punch said it's not, so maybe it's Alden? He was conspiring with Sasha to get ride of Kessler, so maybe something happened with Alden that turned him into the beast. Nothing is really said about him when he disappeared after Cole's fight with him, maybe he was around when Cole got ride of the Ray Sphere. Just guessing here.

Indeed, my desire to shoot a really big monster with lightning is at an apex, I do believe the creators of this trailer have succeeded.

 

[CheckD3]

The best part of the trailer is that it set the beast up as a super powered amazingly evil thing, yet doesn't give away it's powers, nor it's size. If you watch Cole, his head goes from looking like it's big, to looking about eye level

Why the fuck do I have to wait about 2-3 more weeks for this game to come out? I'm so excited for this game, why? Because is Sucker Punch is to follow a pattern, this will by the new best game ever, since Sly 2 is my favorite game ever, and that was also a franchise made by Sucker Punch and the 2nd followed the first instead of having a break in between, PLEASE be creatures of habit at SP, PLEASE!

Well to be honest the ending of the first game gave away some aspects: we know it's human and we know it rose volcanoes from the ground. Although, it wouldn't be unheard of if the beast could transform.

If "looks nothing like him" you mean "looks exactly the same as he did in the last game", then yeah, I suppose.

Otherwise, this looks pretty sweet. I'm really interested in learning more about the Beast this time around, hopefully they elaborate more on his/her/its origins and abilities.

It does have reason, but John's death was a result of Kessler's meddling with time.

Oh well, we find out for sure in 25 days anyway.

 

[Owlslayer]

This is one of those games that make me want to buy a PS3.
Damn.
Well, hopefully I'll be able to play it some day, anyways.

 

[Knife-28]

Am I the only one thinking that giant art deco statue wouldn't look out of place in Rapture?

 

[Hugga_Bear]

Want.

Looks like The Beast is a god level pyrokinetic or something. In any case it looks to be a nasty psychopath type enemy. Should be fun.

 

[Ninjat_126]

I'd like to see how Cole gets out of this.

Bet it'll involve him losing his powers to set up Infamous 2.

 

[krickit]

I don't feel hyped at all.

[Pilkingtube]

Lies, all of it. We all know that Cole's biggest opponent is Alex Mercer.
Let the battle of the identical sequels begin!
