InFamous 2 Set in New Orleans?

Mucu from GamesOnSmash.com writes, "Infamous 2 was just announced as the cover of the newest Game Informer. While the magazine has yet to hit subscribers yet, I think we can tell a lot about Infamous just from the cover. To me, it seems like Infamous 2 will be set in New Orleans (Or something very similar to New Orleans like “Empire City” was New York)."

Reasons why after the jump.

New Orleans or London according to the article.

London would be a very interesting setting in my opinion. Personally I think I would prefer London over New Orleans, though it seems that the first game was tied to American politics so its most likely New Orleans though an international setting would still be possible.

Also I don't really get why everyone's so upset with Cole's new design, I think it reflects how Cole has changed after taking the "good" path in the first game.

Blaze9295068d ago (Edited 5068d ago )

what if you took the evil path? I wonder if that will carry over along with your actions like how BioWare handles Mass Effect

EDIT:

oooook, what the hell did I even type that you can disagree with? *sigh* N4G

xHarvey5068d ago

That's a good question. I've never played the first one. From what I've seen though your actions can lead to a different outcome? correct me if I'm wrong. If so then carrying over your save would be neat like ME2 and WKC2.

SG-175068d ago

You mentioned Mass Effect. My god the people here are such fanboys it is ridiculous. This is coming from someone who only owns a PS3 too.

Redempteur5068d ago

in the GOOD path , cole realise that he want to live with people while wondering how long this peacefull interraction will last until he is betrayed again .

ON the evil path , empire city is poor and destroyed and Cole is rulling by fear over the citizens of the city because it became somewhat a lawless zone ...

ShinMaster5068d ago

What the heck are you talking about? There was no fanboyism in his comment!

KiasuKiasiMan5068d ago

Actually I think it'll go the good path by default.

I think it's like the Command and Conquer series.

The next game usually or always follows the story-line of the "good guys" with it being the only story that's canon while the story-line with the bad guys winning is non-canon.

xHarvey5068d ago (Edited 5068d ago )

@ ShinoGino
I think SG-17 know that there isn't any fanboyism in Blaze929 comment. I think he was just explaining to blaze why he got a disagree from fanboys(not him) just because he mentioned mass effect. That's the way I read it, could be wrong.

ShinMaster5068d ago

Ah ok. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

I cannot WAIT for E3! So many surprises this year, and so many more to go. I'm glad we surpassed the PS3 slump long ago, because it's almost becoming too much to take in, with all the epic titles being either shown or released for the PS3.

inFAMOUS is one of the most enjoyable games I've played this entire generation. Great gameplay, well-rendered city, wonderful comic book-esque story presentation, and characters that actually matter for once. I just hope they fix some of the repetitive mission structure that the first title relied on at times.

So stoked for inFAMOUS 2!

Brewski0075068d ago

New orleans would be cool , it DOES look very similar alright, but it might just be trying to throw people off a scent. Something like washington or california-based might be more scaleable in terms of size considering empire city was modeled on a huge new york.

nygamer285068d ago

i hope this game doesnt blow like the first one did....IN MY OPINION!!!!

pwnsause5068d ago

you must have a bad taste for games then if you didnt like Infamous.

nygamer285068d ago (Edited 5068d ago )

DUDE YOU DONT KNOW ME...JUS CAUSE YOU LIKE IT DOESNT MEAN THE WHOLE WORLD DOESNT HAVE TO LIKE IT....PLEASE RESPECT MY OPINION!!!!

TO EVERYBODY THAT DISAGREED...GO SUCK A FAT ONE!!!

dreamcast5068d ago

"TO EVERYBODY THAT DISAGREED...GO SUCK A FAT ONE!!!"

You should respect their opinion amirite?

TOO PAWNED5068d ago (Edited 5068d ago )

Your opinion? You have never played Infamous, so dont try to force your FALSE opinion on us. You try too much to convince people this is where you fail kid. THAT IS WHY you get disagrees.

pxpxp5068d ago

what do you consider to be a good game (this gen)? that should clear everything up

nygamer285068d ago (Edited 5068d ago )

AHHHH HEAVY RAIN,HALO 3,GEARS 2,UNCHARTED 1 AND 2,LITTLEBIGPLANET,LEFT 4 DEAD,RED DEAD REDEMPTION....MUCH MORE I CAN ADD TO LIST

WOW A DISAGREE????? NOW THAT GUY HAS A BAD TASTE OF GAMES

pxpxp5068d ago

yup that clears it up. Gears2? haha

cLiCK_sLiCK95068d ago (Edited 5068d ago )

More importantly, can you tell us why you didnt like Infamous? With cap-OFF please. Maybe if you supported your opinion with couple clear examples, then you wouldnt have been "DISAGREED" so much.

PM me since you are out of bubbles.....

djfullshred5068d ago

lol, people are disagreeing with you on principle now...because your first comment was just trolling.

inFamous 3: We Want A Second Son Sequel

Fans of the action-adventure franchise have been eagerly awaiting news of a potential sequel to one of the best games on the PS4.

I want it too. Make it co-op as well.

-Foxtrot331d ago

Yeah they had a lightning bolt in the shape of a question mark at the end of Infamous 2

They always went off the good ending for Cole so I think for Delsin it should be the bad ending

What he did in the bad ending, absorbing everyone’s powers, seemed like he was going to turn into something powerful.

Makes you feel like he could have been the real Beast and John was just an anomaly because of them messing with time

Sets up a Cole vs Delsin showdown

potatoseal331d ago

How would fans feel about a reboot? You know to bring a new audience in? Not a good idea? Good idea?

anast330d ago

Not a god idea. They let it sit for too long and the game hasn't been strong enough to carry itself all these years. There is so much other stuff out there right now.

masterfox331d ago

Second Son was released in 2014 was an amazing game visually and gameplay wise, sometimes I play it again on the PS5 and seeing it run at 60 fps is something to behold(yes an almost 10 year old game), if you haven't done that on your PS5 try it you won't be disappointed, pure eye candy, a PS5 exclusive of Infamous would be amazing no doubt.

gold_drake331d ago

meh, i want Cole to come back.

or maybe a reboot. with cole.

Older PlayStation games that we'd love to see on the PlayStation 5

From Xfire: "For a company with a three-decade-long history in gaming, Sony has done a crappy job at preserving its legacy. "

Flawlessmic721d ago (Edited 721d ago )

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.

Welshy721d ago

MGS, Silent Hill etc are no brainers, but you earned my thumbs up for our boi Croc. I talk about him all the time, it's an honour to find another man of culture.

Flawlessmic721d ago (Edited 721d ago )

Hahaha yea was one of my very first games i owned on ps1 as a child, great memories!!

Love to hear there other people out there that enjoyed the gem of a game that is croc 👌

RedDevils721d ago (Edited 721d ago )

Okami has HD version already. I want those Sly games though since PS3 and vita had it.

Flawlessmic720d ago

Yea sly would be cool, i never got into those so would be a good opportunity for me to do so.

But yea theres so many games in sony catalogue we coukd be here all day listing titles.

Hopefully we all get the ganes we are hoping for.

outsider1624721d ago

Tenchu 1 and 2
Socom 1 and 2
MGS 1-3
MGS4
ICO

seanpitt23721d ago

RDR2 for me they can boost that up to 60fps with better graphic settings than last gen

Luc20721d ago

Folklore. It was such a unique and beautiful game. Great soundtrack. I still have my PS3 copy

The_Hooligan721d ago

YES please! Also I would love to see Warhawk come back. Such an awesome game.

moriarty1889721d ago

The Resistance and a killzone series for me.

Bigman4k721d ago (Edited 721d ago )

Infamous 1 & 2 probably will get remaster for PS5/4 at some point as for the others in that article idk

If the PC can emulate the PS3, then for sure the PS5 would be able to do same. but dose Sony want it?

Mr Logic1384d ago

If there was money in it, then Sony would do it. People can bitch and moan all they want, but even if every person on this site used BC, that would still be a tiny fraction of gamers. Almost nobody really uses BC.

DethWish1384d ago (Edited 1384d ago )

I think there would be money if they made PS3 games downloadable through PSNow and added a bunch more.
Edit: I would get it if MGS4 was available

Mr Logic1384d ago

@DethWish

That would be an emulator. You're not making any sense.

DethWish1384d ago

Mr Logic, really? If PS5 could emulate PS3 games (BC) and PSNow would let you download and play PS3 games locally instead of streaming (like it lets you download PS4 games), wouldn't that be awesome? PSNow has some really interesting PS3 games, but I'd prefer to play them locally

MadLad1384d ago

Really?
Remasters of popular games do extremely well. MS basically hands them out for free. If people didn't want to play older games, then why do remasters sell so well?

anonymousfan1384d ago

I honestly would probably never ever use it... But I still think it would be pretty neat. Its one of the few avantages PC still has on console that is complete backwards compatibility. But for all the work needed to implement this I doubt it would be worth Sony's time.

Melankolis1384d ago

In my opinion.
The difference is independent emulator developer can build any emulator as an experiment that will be perfected for years, maybe more than 10 years. During that time, expect many glitch, bugs, and updates. They can do that because they do not have any obligation towards PC users or whatsoever.

Fos Sony, once they announce PS5 will be able to play PS3 games, they have to make it safe and playable for users. They do not want the emulator cause bricks, glitch, heating up or anything to the consoles and get sued for that.

Harkins17211384d ago

The amount of work it would require sony for each game probably isn't worth it. Maybe after rpcs3 is done they can patent it and use it. That's the dream lol

EazyC1384d ago

Wish I never sold my PS3 for MGS IV alone, I'm dying to play it again

Gamerking821384d ago (Edited 1384d ago )

Any ps3 owner has too own this masterpiece . My disk drive has just gone on my old super slim . So I bought the digital version no questions ask . If you have a ps3 own this masterpiece that’s all I can say . I replay it every year and still find loads of enjoyment . The last true metal gear in my opinion . V was good and gameplay amazing , but it’s just not a metal gear quality story wise .
