inFamous 2 electrifying gameplay video – Full Analysis

Gamersmint :InFAMOUS 2 gameplay video was leaked today and we suspect it’s the GTTV footage scheduled to be shown tomorrow which got leaked. Gamersmint does a full analysis of the trailer.

What an action packed trailer it was! The game shows off a newly designed Cole along with what we suspect an entirely new game engine. The visuals looked really good even in this low resolution video. This time Cole has a lot of new tricks up his sleeves to play with.

Says the guy who own a 360.

knightdarkbox it's OK to be jealous, here have a tissue.

Jeff2575471d ago

Seriously he should just stop trolling. Everyone here knows he doesnt have a PS3 and has never played a PS3 game. He is just too upset to admit the 360 isnt giving him games like this.

Anyway I cant wait for this game to come out and man it looks amazing. there is a huge imrpvement over the first one.

Rumor5471d ago

the seamless transition to cutscenes like u2, and wtf happened to this cole, im getting used to the the one in the vid, but this one guy just looks cooler

Dee_915471d ago

ea if he think this looks like the 1st one he obviously never played the 1st one

RageAgainstTheMShine5471d ago

The action is amazingly fast paced and fluid!

cjflora5470d ago

I bet he has a PS3 plays the hell out of it. Only thing is, he needs to hide it in the closet when all of his friends come over so he can keep his cred.

This looks significantly better than inFamous 1. Don't agree? Fire it up. The textures in this one are cleaner, the character models more detailed, and the action--holy crap. And, of course, less jaggies is good, good, good.

raztad5471d ago

Textures and lightning are actually inFAMOUS 1 strengths. Jaggies, animations and framerate drops were its weakness, It looks like everything is getting improved, and I think SP is serious when they say they are aiming for 60fps. It looks like the game is very fluid.

nveenio5471d ago

I agree, they are definitely working some serious magic. That being said, I'd be happy with 30 fps, unless they can guarantee that trying to get 60 won't hamper draw distance. Climbing to the top of those towers and looking out over the city was one of the coolest things about inFamous. I'd hate to see nothing but a fog in #2, all thanks to 60fps.

MNicholas5471d ago

The first game had outstanding textures and lighting. Blew away any other sandbox games by a country mile.

The most significant weakness with the first game was objects visibly streaming in when moving too quickly. For example, when falling from a tall building, you'd actually see parked cars appear out of nowhere.

That's a memory issue so hopefully they've solved it.

Based on the video, it looks like they've kicked everything up a notch including general production values. All that dynamic lighting really adds to the atmosphere.

I am not a fan of the animations assigned to Cole but that's more of an art/design issue than a technical one.

I'd be blown away if they manage 60fps. Reality has a way of disrupting the best laid plans. Then again, PD found away to do the unthinkable (not just 60fps but 50% higher res and ridiculously high detail) it so why not Sucker Punch?

Christopher5471d ago (Edited 5471d ago )

Really enjoyed seeing destructible environments. Particle effects are vastly improved as well. Game looks cleaner overall and they're improving on the various abilities.

Did have an issue with the sound of the bullets from the copter kind of cutting out there after the first missiles. Hopefully they get that fixed before release.

randomwiz5471d ago (Edited 5471d ago )

im not sure if its MLAA or not, but it definitely looks like a HUGE improvement over the first inFamous

talltony5471d ago

60 fps in a open world game has not been seen this gen yet. It really looks like a open world uncharted 2.

CernaML5471d ago

You haven't played Burnout Paradise I'm guessing?

talltony5471d ago

And yes I platinumed that game. Their are no people at all and I dnt think it should be considered open world.

Neo Nugget5470d ago (Edited 5470d ago )

Yes it is. It's a driving open world game.

And of course there are other people. Who do you think drives the other cars?

CernaML5470d ago

It shouldn't be considered open world because there are no rendered humans in the game? Okay, makes perfect sense.

Snoogins5471d ago

I might get flagged for foul language, but I cannot say the word FUCK enough to express how mind-blowingly awesome that gameplay footage was. The animation, action and graphics are a HUGE leap above the first. I am so looking forward to this game. My only gripe about the original was how unvaried the side-missions were and that there was nothing to do once you beat the game. Simply amazing and I do not understand how anyone could be able to downplay what was shown. Well done, Sucker Punch!

evilmonkey5015471d ago

I love how this is a featured comment...lol

nan05471d ago

The game is just ripping everything off of uncharted. Look it's Nathan Drake Jr. with super powers.

I can't believe they butchered the Infamous I loved. Bring back Cole.

Solid_Malone5471d ago

hate to admit it but your right

jeseth5470d ago

COLE looks so F'N G@Y !!!

Cole used to look mean and aggresive. Now he has some metro haircut and "confused identity" tattoos.

He looks like a fem. I hope they put his balls back on before this game comes out.

the_1080p_guy5470d ago

I'm pretty much sure they are using MLAA.I think every 1st even 3rd party devs are going to use it from now on.Just wait for a couple of months and after that 'jaggies' wont be found in a ps3 gamer's dictionary.Lol...How cool is that?

cyborg5471d ago

I noticed very less jaggies in the last scene when cole was facing the chopper it's likely that they are

washingmachine5471d ago

dang,a lack of jaggies,im getn this,the first one was to jaggie for me lol

sorceror1715471d ago

I only really noticed the jaggies in the fight with Alden, when it close-ups on him. That was the only place it actually bugged me. Oh, well, either way inF2 looks good!

crazydrummerlad15471d ago

check out when u finally get to the ray sphere. the thing holding it has major jaggies. but its no big deal. the first game had such beastly gameplay that it weighed out anythin bad that i noticed =)

swiftshot935471d ago

OMG! This game looked s amazing! Holy shit!

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.

Alexious762d ago

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

-Foxtrot762d 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

lukasmain762d ago

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

anast761d 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.

masterfox762d 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_drake762d 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. "

Flawlessmic1153d ago (Edited 1153d 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.

Welshy1152d 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.

Flawlessmic1152d ago (Edited 1152d 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 👌

RedDevils1152d ago (Edited 1152d ago )

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

Flawlessmic1152d 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.

outsider16241153d ago

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

seanpitt231153d ago

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

Luc201153d ago

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

The_Hooligan1152d ago

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

moriarty18891152d ago

The Resistance and a killzone series for me.

Bigman4k1152d ago (Edited 1152d 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 Logic1815d 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.

DethWish1815d ago (Edited 1815d 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 Logic1815d ago

@DethWish

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

DethWish1815d 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

MadLad1815d 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?

anonymousfan1815d 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.

Melankolis1815d 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.

Harkins17211815d 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

EazyC1815d ago

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

Gamerking821815d ago (Edited 1815d 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 .
