inFAMOUS 2 Hype thread (56k) 7.5 @ GS - KEEP IT HERE!

Zelda Skyward Sword will NOT be better than Infamous 2.....No way in Hades is it even possible man. They just do not bring enough to the table. Now gamers will see how open world games are really done.

Coolyfett

you're that one guy that whenever there was an infamous 2 thread you specifically brought up zelda skyward sword saying that infamous 2 will be so much better. I don't know why you want zelda to fail, but I'll tell you one thing.

the last 4 entries to the main zelda series have all been masterpieces, and each of them were so much different than the previous game. zelda doesn't just bring things to the table, it is the table.

I'm not saying anything negative towards infamous 2, because it looks incredible. But zelda, zelda man.

Coolyfett is the ONE guy? Zelda is the table? Twilight Princess was a masterpiece? When Zelda has a real score & VA, let Coolyfett know.

so much fail... especially this. well, if you're going to bash zelda's soundtrack there is really no reason to continue this conversation.

Fantastic OP. I'm predicting AA (8.5/10.)

I predict an 8.5-9.0 at GameSpot. Nice thread as well :)

AA 8.5 is the new 9.0

8.5 because its Gamespot. Looks like it should be able to get a 9.0 though.

I see there's a theme with your color schemes, Wesrcks13! ;) Great thread, BTW.

I'm predicting AAA - 9.0. Infamous 2 looks to be much better than the first, which I really enjoyed. I'm still astonished by the Mission Creator!

Fing BS on those preorder bonuses I can go with skins but powers being sold that is down right b*******ly.Empirefrtw

Yeah, I'm not a fan of that stuff. :(

I didn't pre-order Infamous 1, but I got the "pre-order bonus", but got the Gigawatt Blades anyway just for buying it new on launch day (which happened to be my b-day! :P).

i think it will be a nine

but knowing Gamespot they will give a 8.5

Considering infamous was one of my favorite games this gen, I'd say 9.5 for me personally, 8.5-9 gamespot score.

Ugh why does NA get the crap box again. Anywho I cant wait to play this game. I want the hero edition mainly for the figure and bag which I will use.

AA probably, looks very generic

Very nice Hype thread.

GS score - 8.5 'too much choice'

Normally I like to play it safe but for inFAMOUS 2 I'll make an exception. I just don't see any way GS can fault this game. It's doing everything right and everything better compared to the original which got a 9.0 here. On top of that the game is being creative and using user generated content for side missions, one of the biggest complaints of the first game was that the side missions were not different enough and not as many. Originally I had my doubt about Sucker punch fixing that for the sequel because it looked like they were only concentrating on cinematic gameplay and story. But by announcing UGC side missions at GDC they REALLY dropped the ball. Unless the game ends up completely broken -which I highly doubt- I can't see any problem with it. On the outside and judging by all the footage I have seen it definitely looks like an open world game to rival the best of them.

AAA For Sure. No way in hell is inFAMOUS 2 getting any lower. I haven't been this certain about a game getting a 9.0+ score since Uncharted 2, I mean it's jam packed with content in terms of gameplay, and much improved graphics plus a story that sounds intriguing in a whole new playground.

Also I would like to add that I knew Heavy Rain and Alan Wake would get 8.5 despite everyone hyping AAA, so yeah I know what I am talking about when it comes to HYPE.

I'll go ahead and say 9.0, but an 8.5 would not be surprising at all. Regardless of what scores, I think it is looking great and will surely be fun as hell.

Just pre-ordered it at Gamestop :shock::P

So much fun this bombastic game's going to be.

I think it will get an 8.5 maybe a 9.0, but that is still a good score and definately not a flop. I enjoyed the first game, and if this game is as improved as it appears, I will enjoy this even more.

Im voting AA because I haven't played the original, and because of Gamespots 8.5 roll they've been on. Looks great. :)

Would be nice to see one of these Infamous games ported to the NGP......please dont flame.

zeke looks bad@$$..... ok... I cant wait

Awesome thread. Lol at the 2 haters who voted 6.5 and below.

Seems like it should be AAA. I'm surprised both inhow little hype the game has gotten up to this point and how little marketing Sony has put toward it. It may be too early for commercials and stuff but I feel like the game has gotten very little exposure considering its a AAA product. Launching it during E3 is an interesting choice.

Everything looks awesome so far...

GS could dock this game for story though :?

OMFG. :shock:

Wow... actual powers (gameplay elements) are taken out of the game and given back to you if you pre-order at the right place?

1 at Gamespot and 1 at Walmart.... so fans get to buy the game twice if they want the full package... NICE!

this bs needs to stop,

AAAE. I may have to import the EU version just for the boxart!

This is my most hyped game this year, but with Batman Arkham City and Zelda Skyward Sword also being released, I don't know if I'll ever decide which open world adventure game will be my favourite.

Based on how amazing they look from what has been released: inFAMOUS 2> Batman Arkham City> Zelda Skyward Sword

It will probably end up like this: Zelda Skyward Sword> inFAMOUS 2> Batman Arkham Asylum

I don't think there is any game series as finely crafted as the Zelda series

Infamous 2 New IGN Preview video

Ugh this game looks so amazing, I love just about everything about the first and the second looks even better, makes me really sad that my PS3 broke as I can't afford another one quite yet :(

If there's a game that can get AAAAE this year its this. Not Uncharted 3, ME3, nope. Their expected to be too good. Now this. This will score a 9.5 or higher. Calling it!

For everyone interested, the beta starts next Teuesday, Sucker Punch will be giving out beta keys, hopefully you can get one before they all run out.

Edit: Err... Huge typo, beta was supposed to start today I think, Beta Key giveaway was delayed though and should be starting soon.

Edit 2: Sony may just be sending Beta Keys to your e-mail, so no need to rush and get one.

Final Edit: Beta Key giveaway was supposed to be today, it got delayed, Sony will be giving out Beta Keys soon, so check your e-mail!

You're just setting yourself up for dissapointment.

Awesome thread TC

Hero edition for me

I would say 8.5 AAE score at Gamespot...but it may end up being a personal AAA for me if those user generated missions live up to the potential! :P

I would remove the poll, though, Wes since polls don't work like they should anyways.

Also,Wesrcks13, you should PM me when you get a chance.

Meh, 8.0.
