Posted February 21, 2013 So we play as Nix's husband? He looks a little generic but otherwise I'm pumped. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 21, 2013 I enjoyed infamous so am quietly looking forward to this. Hope to see some actual gameplay soon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 21, 2013 I like that fact that it had yesterdays date on all the camera feeds. Not very subtle, but still cool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 21, 2013 Unnff, at this. It's all I wanted. I hope Cole turns up. Wouldn't be surprised if he does. I'd like to see Sucker Punch expand on the user content, too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 21, 2013 Hey, it's some dude in a hoodie with black symbiotic-like powers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 21, 2013 Lets not go there. I guess another game with Cole an electrical powers would just be more of the same and it's nice that this is the same universe. I hope Sony push this like they did Uncharted last generation. It deserved more. Infamous 2 was a crap load better than Uncharted 3. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 21, 2013 I jest. This is exactly what I wanted from Sucker Punch - a similar kind of superhero game, but with a new character with different powers. It also looks like accidentally walking through puddles won't kill any nearby civilians. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 21, 2013 Given that Sucker Punch have always used the in-game engine for trailers and cut-scenes in their games (Sly, Infamous)... it's pretty exciting right!? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 21, 2013 If I'd seen this in isolation I'd have assumed it was pre-rendered but with the other games shown (and Sucker Punch's history) this looks ingame and insanely gorgeous. It also looks like accidentally walking through puddles won't kill any nearby civilians. No more puddle kills. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 21, 2013 If only they'd make x-men games as good as this........ When i get a PS4 i NEED this game Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 21, 2013 No way in a million years is this rendered with the same engine you'll be playing it in. How is the difference not instantly obvious? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 21, 2013 No way in a million years is this rendered with the same engine you'll be playing it in. How is the difference not instantly obvious?Well that's what I thought, but then I remembered Sucker Punch always use the in game engine for everything in and out of their games, I remembered Killzone 4, and if you look at that GIF above that Daft posted, there's just something about that section of the footage that got me wondering.

Posted February 21, 2013 One of the devs tweeted to cliffy b that it was all done in house and in engine. I'm an Infamous whore so fucking bring it on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 21, 2013 What makes you think it isn't? (Real question, not sarcasm.) Actually, I'mma go ahead and eat my words there, during the livestream I thought it was nothing but a fully rendered video, but I went through and paused here and there looking for examples to back up my point and ended up finding evidence that maybe it is an in-game engine after all. I think the first section is separately rendered, the part with the overhead view of the car. Look at the guard on the right patting down a civilian, it's overly smooth, too much reaction in the person being checked. Some of the particle effects seemed very tailored to the situation during the fight but that was probably just me being thrown off by the camera angle. Tips to actually suggest that it's in game, to me, would be any unnaturally sharp bends (neck armour on the first armoured guard you see), hair being made of fairly flat shapes (part of the hair of the woman looking at the screens) and small details (character's bracelet) being made of minimal polygons. So yea... that's the reason why I didn't think, and then went on to think, it was the in-game engine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 21, 2013 Its a tech demo. Not the game. Looked fantastic and i like the title Second Son. Clear Infamous reference before the logo even popped up confirming its a sequel. :awesome: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 21, 2013 It also looks like accidentally walking through puddles won't kill any nearby civilians.That was so 'FUCK!'... When you'd just saved one person from a mugging, or defibrillator'd a couple of people, only to not notice a puddle and in an instant wipe out the adoring crowd that had gathered.

Posted February 23, 2013 So it turns out this trailer WAS in engine! (Holy balls... ) Sucker Punch have tweeted that it was gameplay footage, just from different camera angles to make it more cinematic: https://twitter.com/SuckerPunchProd/status/305040486165532672 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 23, 2013 HEL-LO NEXT GEN!!!!! (If that's what Sucker Punch can do... can you imagine Naughty Dog!!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 24, 2013 It's nice to see everyone buzzing about this in here. A few podcasts (joystiq being one) seemed to think this wasn't a big enough title for launch but I think it's perfect and very ambitious. I've never understood why Infamous doesn't seem to be held up in that pantheon of great open world games certainly had more fun with both of them than I did with GTA 4.

Posted February 24, 2013 I have Infamous 1 because of the PSN outage a couple of years ago and Infamous 2 in my download list from PS+, but I have yet to play either. (Well, I'm about an hour into I1.) Which do you recommend I start with? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
