Playing as delivery guy Cole, you're imbued with special electrical powers when a package you're delivering turns out to be a bomb that levels several blocks in Empire City. With the city then pitched into darkness when the main power grid goes down, chaos ensues as the anarchic, hooded Reapers crawl out of the woodwork and start indiscriminately shooting people and taking them hostage. It then falls to Cole and his dramatic, high voltage powers to restore order to the streets of Empire, whether it's through brave, lawful and heroic means or reckless, destructive and criminal actions.
The inFamous games are an important part of PlayStation history, but the series is in limbo and playing older entries isn't exactly easy.
Would like remasters of 1 and 2. I enjoyed them much more than Second Son.
1 & 2 had more of an emphasis on climbing and the traversal requires a bit more effort in a good way. It was rewarding. Second Son made climbing mostly obsolete so they put little effort into it. The traversal was just great in inFamous 1 & 2. There's a reason Sunset Overdrive copied and improved upon the induction grind mechanic.
Reminds me of how I felt about the decline of parkour and the well designed tombs (basically Prince Of Persia levels) that we saw in the Assassin's Creed games.
The story and atmosphere were also much better in 1 & 2.
Electricity is just a brilliant superpower for an open world city. It perfectly fits just like webslinging does in New York and it has many applications.
Wouldn't the onus be on the consumers? If they bought the Infamous games, then we'd have more games from that series.
I would love to see a new game but a feel that would get a response similar to Saints Row.
Loved all 3 of them. I couldn't get on with the vampire spin off though. Wish they didn't move away from cole but I didn't mind the other character.
Nixxes' Remaster focus could set the stage to resurrect many obscure titles like the karma-centered, superpower-fueled sandbox of Infamous.
Infamous remaster? How about an Infamous re-Boot! This is one game that doesn't need a remaster, it needs either a proper equal of a reboot of the original. And since Sony is currently in development with Marvel, i can totally see them having guest marvel characters to appear in Cole's world.
I'd like a Killzone 2 Remaster.
Keep the visuals style as is ... just improve the LoD and the resolution
There is a lot of the PS3 era that I would love to see ported/remastered. But, unfortunately, they are probably not commercially viable and I have no idea who owns the rights currently. Stuff like Sire: Blood Curse, White Knight Chronicles, Tokyo Jungle, Folklore, etc.
Infamous on the other hand was never a series that I found good or interesting. Especially when compared with other contemporaries like Prototype. But, given how bare the subgenre is right now, I would dig a remaster.
Infamous, Resistance, and killzine are so ripe for a remaster, I wish Sony would make it happen.
From Xfire: "For a company with a three-decade-long history in gaming, Sony has done a crappy job at preserving its legacy. "
All the mgs games, all the ape escapes, silent hill 1-4, croc 1 and 2, legend of dragoon, tekken 3,tenshu, bushido blade, vagrant story, okami, ico, crash bash, gt4.
Thats just off the top of my head that i would play immediately, still so many more though that id love.
Folklore. It was such a unique and beautiful game. Great soundtrack. I still have my PS3 copy
Infamous 1 & 2 probably will get remaster for PS5/4 at some point as for the others in that article idk
Wow, so far there hasn't been one "bad" review of this game (gamesradar gave it a 7/10, but to me that's not a bad game)
This is the fruit of in house exclusive support.
3rd place in sales.
1st place in quality titles.
Which one do gamers prefer?
The Ps3 is the only system on the market that gives gamers the feeling of overwhelming optimism.
On the 360 gamers are just happy to see what game is next. On the Ps3 the question is..what can Sony do next?
From plain sight you see Ps3 exclusives going from not enough in a bad way onto not enough a good way.
Sony Computer Entertainment and its developers are ignoring the pish posh and doom articles proving them all wrong with every game published and created by there studios.
inFamous reviews are like no name websites against the big and recognized ones...
Every big magazine and website have scored the game with 9 or above and when I say big I include IGN, GameSpot, GameInformer, 1up, etc and every small site it is like giving the game a 7 (eurogamer / gamesradar) or flat 8. It is like they can't get over their fanboyims. Well, for some reason they aren't big and recognized right?
I think most importantly this gen from sony is the diversity and originality in new IP'S, so being in 3rd place in a console race is meaningless, whatever the case it looks to be a very good year for gamers this year as their are many great games to look forward to.
Nice seeing review scores not going all over the place. Means they might actually be worth something this time around.
