inFamous: A Look Back Through Production

I'm sure we're all getting excited for inFamous to come out. With a matter of months left, only 19 weeks and 2 days left, the new Sucker Punch game is inching closer and closer to us PS3 users, and it looks to be a savior for the console.

But what this post is really about is a look back at the three years we've waited for this game... more juicy goodness from Sucker Punch, and perhaps the beginning of a great new franchise... I remember seeing the first info from Sucker Punch around the end of 2005, sometime when I finished Sly 3.  It was cool to hear that Sucker Punch was going to start new big things, however, I quickly brushed off the thought of it, and went on to read the rumors of a new Sly.
However, checking back on the Sucker Punch site a year later, they had put up new stuff, and suddenly I couldn't stop thinking of inFamous. It was incredible!  I made up a whole fan club for it, and, of course, set up this blog, all to anticipate and support the release of inFamous. So knowing that it won't be long 'til I start frying criminals is great.

Prototype to release this December :(

Oh no, not good. The game that worked a lot less and put much less effort into it is going to be recieving the credit, because Prototype ( www.prototypegame.com ) is releasing this December, which means it'll be a hot gift for Christmas, and since inFamous is only releasing May '09, it'll look like a copycat of Prototype. But look at Prototype- there's no moral decisions, no deeply formulating gameplay, just slicing through guys like they where cheese. The graphics and art design are bland as well.  On the contrary, inFamous has a remarkable amount of art design and beautiful graphics. And it DOES have deep gameplay. And you can really tell that Sucker Punch put work into it, like all of the Sly games (well, I highlight Sly 2 amongst them). It's a dissapointment that inFamous probably will be second fiddle to Prototype, that is, if people don't act smart and know that inFamous is a much better path to fun. D:

Sly 2: Caution

If you happen to be playing Sly 2: Band of Thieves sometime soon, DON'T enter the Laser Redirection level room in Episode 7, unless you like repeating half an episode. The worst part of this bug is that the safe is in this level. But to tell you the truth, the power-up isn't worth it- it's literally the exact same as the lightning spin, only with a different name. So if you haven't gotten to episode 7, when you do, collect all of the bottles before doing anything else, and when you get to the Laser Redirection level, unlock the safe immediately.

inFamous recieving phenomenal advertising funding

According to PS3 Fanboy, inFamous shall be recieving a "blockbuster multi-million dollar" advertising from SCEA.

This is a very exciting thing to read about. Not only will a strong amount of advertising put Sucker Punch back on the map after the slight failure of Sly 3, but it also means that inFamous will definetely be one of the biggest games of the year. Needless to say, it deserves the spot.

inFamous: The Coolest Looking Game of '09.

Sucker Punch is moving on from their familiar Sly Cooper titles with the upcoming PS3 exclusive inFAMOUS. Without a doubt, it is the coolest looking video game of the year. You play as Cole, the only survivor within the blast radius of an enormous explosion that wiped out six blocks of Empire City, and you have been gifted (or cursed) with electric superpowers. The city instantly falls apart after the explosion, and has been quarantined by the government because of a quickly spreading plague infecting most of the residents. Criminals take over the streets. It is now entirely up to you to either save the city from utter destruction...or do the exact opposite.

Okay, so not only do the graphics look amazing... (look below!)... but the game is probably one of the only superhero games in history not to be based on a comic book/movie hero. And the storyline and basis of the game play is really interesting too. Doesn't Sucker Punch always succeed at making a great storyline? And to add to all of this the game is a free roam sandbox game!!!! Well, I've been anticipating this game a LOT, (why wouldn't I) and on the very date I post this message, we have just 6 and 2/3rds months to go. (The game is scheduled to come out May 1st '09.) So stay in touch to receive all the big news on the upcoming game, and in the meanwhile check out some of these links.
