Infamous 2 gets new voice actor

Not many details have been revealed about the game, but GI did confirm hero Cole MacGrath will be heading to a completely new city and will receive new powers as well. We know Cole will also have a different voice. Jason Cottle, who voiced Cole in the first game, will not return for the sequel. Actor David Sullivan, who initially leaked that a new InFamous game was in development, may have been cast to replace Cottle.

I liked the old Cole voice.

Derekvinyard135438d ago

so did i, but i think IGN and other sites dident like it

Jamie Foxx5438d ago (Edited 5438d ago )

a console that uses dvd9

sucker punch are teasing with multiplayer,the graphics look amazing..the only people bitching about infamous2 are people who havnt played the first one or even more confusingly 'xbox sites' because the cole you started out with in infamous 1 sure as hell wasnt the cole you finished the game with, so i guess you didnt like that change either?

infamous2 is on such a bigger scale i will wait till i see ingame footage and play the game (sucker punch never disappoint) and not pick the game to death due to a screenshot of a prettier looking cole, i want to see gameplay thats why i buy games not because the main character has hair,too many childish cheerleaders on this site

sony need to acquire sucker punch quickly they are too talented

King_many_layers5438d ago

That's all very well.. Change CAN be a brilliant thing, but changing the voice actor's just a bit strange to me. I think it'll be cool if the voice changes slightly as we progress more also.

Loved the first and can't wait for the second

JoySticksFTW5438d ago

I'm not sure all of these changes are

The game is going to be amazing. inFamous was well received. Why change even the voice acting now?

Voice is a huge part of what makes a character who they are

For icons such as Snake, Kratos,& Drake -- you can watch a teaser of only a black screen with one of their distinctive voices setting up the next adventure, and you'll get all amped up because you know it's them

and now they're going to change Cole's voice up? I don't know

Maybe they thought he sounded too "Wolverine-like", but Sucker Punch is taking a chance here I think

If people don't like way the character looks or sounds like when the game is released, it could affect the enjoyment of the game for some.

Look at Raiden in MGS2. Great game, but I'd rather be controlling Snake than that wuss

Jamie Foxx5438d ago (Edited 5438d ago )

maybe his balls have finally dropped....and he has hair now due to the fact his body is now accustomed to the electricity

OBVIOUSLY we know suckerpunch want to make coles character more accesible like nathan drake and why not? ,straight away cole will be more accepted by a wider audience which means more than the 2million+ sales of the first one,and considering this is sucker punch like ND they always improve on their games

Mr_Bun5438d ago (Edited 5438d ago )

Honest question:
You really believe the voice of the lead character is what prevented people from buying the game?

I liked his voice and I had to listen to it while searching for all 300+ shards to get the plat. It isn't "Cole" without the same voice.

I'm still going to pick up the sequel, but you have to admit, Transformers wouldn't have had the same effect if they didn't use the original voice actor for Optimus Prime

Tachyon_Nova5438d ago

Ow did this get approved, we've known about this since last year, or atleast it seems like that long ago.

Venomish5438d ago

as long as it is not nolan north..

WildArmed5438d ago

Agreed. Love his harsh voice tone :(
I'mma miss him dearly!
He reminded me of Snake-ish!

erathaol5437d ago

I did to, I actually thought he did a great job. Especially when it came to that bridge scene where he was all alone in the world and he had only himself to rely on. I really don't like this new direction they are taking the game. I think they listened too much to reviewers criticism and Prototype/inFAMOUS comparisons.

Treezy5045438d ago

Hopefully the voice is lame like Cole's new look because I can't picture Cole looking the way he does with his old voice.

aaronisbla5438d ago

i guess people would prefer the generic nathan hale look alike to this new one...

ExgamerLegends25438d ago

>.>

Anyway I guess I'll ask again. Did anyone else get a notification that youve been banned from the site? Cuz I get that every time I log in yet... here I am.

Faztkiller5438d ago (Edited 5438d ago )

No but I've not logged out In awhile

EDIT: logged out and back no notification maybe you should contact a mod

ExgamerLegends25438d ago

they responded with a "you have been banned from this site"

Yet here I am again. Oh well, guess I wont be pursuing that any further.

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.

Alexious704d ago

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

-Foxtrot704d 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

lukasmain704d ago

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

anast703d 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.

masterfox704d 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_drake704d 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. "

Flawlessmic1095d ago (Edited 1095d 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.

Welshy1094d 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.

Flawlessmic1094d ago (Edited 1094d 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 👌

RedDevils1094d ago (Edited 1094d ago )

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

Flawlessmic1094d 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.

outsider16241094d ago

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

seanpitt231094d ago

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

Luc201094d ago

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

The_Hooligan1094d ago

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

moriarty18891094d ago

The Resistance and a killzone series for me.

Bigman4k1094d ago (Edited 1094d ago )

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

Latest RPCS3 build brings major improvements in Metal Gear Solid 4, inFamous 2, Ninja Gaiden & more

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

Mr Logic1757d 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.

DethWish1757d ago (Edited 1757d 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 Logic1757d ago

@DethWish

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

DethWish1757d 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

MadLad1757d 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?

anonymousfan1757d 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.

Melankolis1757d 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.

Harkins17211757d 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

EazyC1757d ago

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

Gamerking821757d ago (Edited 1757d 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 .
