I had no clue he was helping with Infamous but the design of the game does look better than the previous iterations

It'll be interesting to see where all of these highly skilled developers go

I wish him good luck and I bet 343 would pick him up even though (no matter what haters say) they proved they could make a great Halo game in Halo 4

FITgamer4110d ago

Lol you are ridiculous, you've had nothing but negative things to say about Infamous SS. Then you hear a Halo dev helped out and all the of the sudden the game design looks better to you.

SourShoes4110d ago (Edited 4110d ago )

With lifeisgames and corvusmd, I always hit disagree. There's no point in reading their comments. They're total fanboys and always say overly ridiculous things. They're like the heels in professional wrestling. They come out and say something stupid on the microphone just to make everyone hate them. Then they run away.

miyamoto4110d ago (Edited 4110d ago )

What a job! AAA game hopping. Hopping feom AAA game to AAA hames. Nice reaume he got.

But the media put it like another long time Sony employee left the company.

Sevir4109d ago

He's been with Sucker Punch since Festival of Blood. And that's after Infamous 2 release.

christocolus4110d ago (Edited 4110d ago )

Infamous is a franchise ive always loved...i played 1 and 2 and im getting my ps4 with ss but if i was microsoft i would pick this guy up asap.He could put this knowledge into crackdown3 and make it a better game than 1 and 2.. or may be he could even start up a new ip.

STICKzophrenic4110d ago

Halo 4 is not great. The multiplayer is even worse than Reach, which was worse than Halo 3.

The campaign was solid, but nothing more. It was definitely the best looking Halo game, but that's about it.

Shadonic4110d ago

well said, what people saw in the multiplayer after playing it, IDK. I gave them a chance I expected fair and even battles I got mini shotguns and the jimmy johns delivery service for power weapons that you barely had to move to get when you could pick enemies off from across the map with your base weapons.

STICKzophrenic4110d ago

They didn't see much because the Halo fanbase was alienated. That can be seen by the amount of people playing Halo 4 mp.

Other than the way his body awkwardly turns (hate that animation)

And no obvious differential between the two powers introduced so far (other than the traversal maybe)

The seemingly dead open world isn't a plus

This should be an ok game"

How could he say this without comparing the E3 pictures

And I'm not impressed with the visuals in this game they aren't horrible but just don't look next gen to me

Ryse, The Order, Quantum Break, Metal Gear Solid are some that look next gen to me"

And now, "I had no clue he was helping with Infamous but the design of the game does look better than the previous iterations" because he read that a Halo developer worked on this game.

lifeisgamesok is a well established troll on N4G. It's the combined minds of Sucker Punch that made this a great looking game and not just one person alone, but I still applaud Jaime Grieseme for the improvement of the controls, story, and interface.

malokevi4110d ago

lol. My lord. Seems like a perfectly reasonable statement, and look at those disagrees stack up. Probably because you said Halo 4 doesn't suck. Try pandering to the lowest common denominator next time if you want to make it far in this.... umm.... community?

"Xbox Done"

Do I win a prize?

LordNikon4110d ago

What he said was reasonable, but that doesn't make it any less hypocritical.

"Do I win a prize?"

I hope not, you'll just get more annoying with more bubbles.

MONOLITHICIDE4110d ago

But shouldnt he be considered a sucker punch developer. Since that is who he worked for. Hes an ex halo developer. Dumb title.

3-4-54110d ago

Halo 4 is trash.

95% of the maps in Halo 2 are better than anything to come after it.

Halo 2,3& Reach were very good mutliplayer FPS games. I never play those campaigns so I can't comment on that.

They need to hopefully learn from Halo 4's TERRIBLE MAP design.

I don't feel arrogant saying I could design a better map and I don't even know how. Most of us could.

Everyone please be evil first! :(

shivvy244110d ago

Sorry bud, I always play good first :)

tanookisuit4110d ago

Paragon for life, son!

....afterwards Renegade.

dericb114110d ago

Yes the evil ending for Infamous 2 was better (IMO) but will doing Good on Medium and Evil on Hard for trophies.

Shadowsteal4110d ago

I just don't want them to go off good ending again because it won't be fair to the people who play evil. We naturally choose good first. The evil ending of Second Son made me feel like crap, like "What did I do to Delsin!?" I'm playing through good now, hopefully it has a less sentimental ending than Infamous 2.

They really need to

Go off the evil ending off Second Son

Delsin absorbs all those powers

Revealed he’s the real Beast and John in Infamous 2 was just an anomaly created by timelines being messed with by Kessler.

Cole vs the Real Beast

gold_drake336d ago

quite honestly, i dont remember a whole lot about 2 amymore, but i absolutely hated the guy in second son haha.

chicken_in_the_corn335d ago

It would make more sense to go off the evil ending of 2 and the good ending g of SS where Cole is The Beast.

Cacabunga334d ago

Doesnt make any sense calling second son 2 as infamous 3..

OtterX335d ago

Ha, yea Delsin was obnoxious.

I wouldn't mind another new character, but somehow bring Cole into the story.

We can just pretend like Delsin never existed. :)

thejigisup334d ago

Everyone that age is obnoxious. It's been years and is like to think delsin has grown

neutralgamer1992335d ago

Until we wait for a potential new entry it would awesome to have infamous collection for PS5

RaidenBlack335d ago

Umm ... how about this?
First we get the Tushima sequel(coz its most rumored)
Then a new Resistance (need new PS SP FPS)
Then a totally new IP (new IPs are always interesting)
And then a new inFamous?

Pepsi_Man3000335d ago

resistance is insomniac I think

xHeavYx335d ago

Can we also get a complete remaster of InFamous 1 and 2?

fr0sty334d ago

Gimme a new Warhawk and MAG while we're at it.

DivineHand125335d ago

I had a great time with the second son. Never got to play the originals and hope they get remastered one day.

DazaMc334d ago

The graphics were amazing, I got the platinum on that one. Very good.

ChasterMies335d ago (Edited 335d ago )

If I had a choice between another Infamous game and another Spider-Man game, I choose Spider-Man. Sony should spend its resources on its winners.

Tacoboto334d ago (Edited 334d ago )

Infamous was such a winner its studio was given the freedom (after 3 titles + their expansions) to do a new IP with GoT, just like with Sly Cooper before infamous.

I'd welcome a 4th title even more than another Spider-Man, it'd be exciting what they could do with new powers fit for the hardware outside the limits of a licensed superhero game.

jznrpg334d ago

Spider-Man is guaranteed and is made by Insomniac so why not both as Sucker Punch would make Infamous.

How Does inFAMOUS Second Son Hold up 10 Years Later?

inFAMOUS Second Son was one of PS4's best exclusives, but does it hold up a decade later?

Deeeeznuuuts524d ago

100%, locked 60fps and still look great all these years later, same with the expansion, definitely worth a look if people haven't played it yet, not the best games ever made but a good experience, hopefully a new infamous gets released

KwietStorm_BLM524d ago

Never was my favorite infamous, but it was definitely a graphics showcase early on PS4. Still plays well with the unlocked frame rate.

SDuck523d ago

Still remember getting hyped about this game nearing release. Funny because I never even got a PS4. Jumped from PS3 to PC so I never played it ahahaha

OmegaSoldati523d ago

Its a good game. But thats it. Congratulations you made the best choice. I dream to have a great PC one day.

jznrpg334d ago

@OmegaSoldati I’ve had a few of the highest end PC’s and they’re cool for about a year then they aren’t the highest end PC anymore and not as cool. It’s way overrated imo.

Profchaos523d ago (Edited 523d ago )

Graphically It's a absolutely stunning game that still holds up today.

Didn't have all that much depth to it forcing you to play though twice for a platinum trophy a good and bad run it was a little disappointing how similar those were Delsin would be like I'm not doing that for you in a cutscene but the cutscene would play out and force you to do it anyway just as you would of in a good run

I did like the story however it got a lot of complaints back in the day people hated playing as Delsin instead of cole despite Coles story being wrapped up.

Overall though the map wasn't overly saturated with useless points of interest there was some collectibles and things to find but nothing compared to a Ubisoft game.

I think it was a good game if a little hollow I've played it through around 4 times now since it's so short.

Also it's DLC was great a full story expansion
