From the creators of the award-winning Sly Cooper series, Sucker Punch brings you inFAMOUS, an open-world action-adventure title exclusively for the PLAYSTATION®3 system.


Players will feel what it's like to be granted incredible powers... how you use them is up to you. The consequences of your actions will affect you, the citizens, and the city around you. You'll develop and grow your powers, and eventually uncover the purpose of it all.


EXPERIENCE
Feel what it's like to wield extraordinary electrical-based powers; and grasp the responsibility that comes with it. Battle against powerful iconic villains and uncover your true purpose.


Climb and interact with anything! Have complete freedom to explore Empire City. Scale the cityscape to discover new vantage points and engage in vertical combat.


Play in a living and breathing city ecology. Watch the citizens and city react and evolve depending on your actions. Events will unfold based on the role you take, creating broader reactions in the city’s people and environment.

I am playing this game right now and it is grrrrrrreat. Still kind of wondering why there isn't a thread yet though. The game sort of has a Crackdown feel, except it takes itself a lot more seriously and actually has a story.

You also get access to the Uncharted 2 beta, which'll be badass.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Without giving away spoilers, I can say that they've thought things through and really grasped how to gradually break the player in. Things are never truly frustrating, but some of the stuff you have to do is really challenging.

Yeah, some of the later fights get slightly difficult, I played normal difficulty, though. The design of everything works well together. I agree that it was very thoroughly thought through.

This. I also enjoy Thunder Dropping off huge buildings and watching everything pretty much explode.

I beat the game as a Hero today. Collected all the Dead Drops and almost half of the Blast Shards. I'll probably try to get the last Hero ability tomorrow and start playing as Evil.

I also still haven't tried out the pre-order ability. I cheated Gamestop into giving me two codes because I hate them (pre-ordered online so they sent me a code via email, then asked for the voucher when I picked up the game).

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Hi Elixir.

edit// I got bored halfway through my second playthrough as Villain. Only 50% trophies but whatever. Also sorry Elix I was wrong!

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
