It's been awhile since we heard from Sucker Punch about their upcoming PS3 game, inFAMOUS. Well, looks like the shroud of secrecy will be lifted in the July issue of Game Informer. The cover confirms that this will be a "sandbox game" (a la Grand Theft Auto IV). However, you will have "extraordinary powers" that come from a "cataclysmic explosion." It's looking dark, it's looking epic ... and it's exclusive to PS3. Game Informer is promising ten pages of info on the game. Once this issue comes in, our next trip to the bathroom will also be quite infamous.
[Thanks, frankym!]

Thats exactly the thing mate, another exclusive = more high hope.
But what have these exclusives left us? HS, Haze, Lair...all which failed after we helf high hope.
I for one have been waiting ages for inFORMATION on inFAMOUS. but this time around, im going to be very pessimistic...so that way if it does turn out bad, my feelings wont be crushed.

Yeah because Uncharted, Ratchett & Clank, Heavenly Sword, Warhawk etc. have all been crap.

I don't know why everyone voted playcrackthesky down. He has a point.
If a game is hyped up too much (which has been very common recently), it's not going to live up to expectations.

He was voted down because this is a fanboy site and anyone that puts down an exclusive before it comes out is blasphemous to the fanboys.
This console war is follwed as if it were the Middle East by many people with little else to be passionate about. Anything negative that you have to say about the Playstation brand or it's games will get voted down or flamed.

Yeah i voted you 2 up, for fear of the same fate, b/c theres nothing wrong w/ an opinion presented decently.
Question, how is this game pronounced? InFAMOUS or infamous (in-fa-miss)?

@playcrackthesky
You have a point, but I resent Heavenly Sword being lumped in with Haze and Lair. The only real problem with HS was it's length. What the PS3 really needs to jump start itself (past that game were all getting tomorrow) is God of War 3. I can't possibly see how that could be a bad game.

Damn that was pretty nasty.
I was talking about games that were hyped before their release when it was an unknown quantity.
Resistance and Ratchet, I mean its insomniac, where is the doubt it wouldnt be great?
Same thing with Uncharted. We all trust the dev's there.
Its no suprise the exclusives made by a company we havent heard of ended up rank.
Luckily, the Sly games are behind these dev's so I do trust them. But I stick to my belief of not getting my hopes to high up.

It looks promising. I'm interested. I'm wondering if it will release before Prototype?
I am also wondering if this reminder of a promising exclusive, despite not being a JRPG, will quell the threatened (impending?) PS3 exodus (1). Strategic mentioning of exclusivity duly noted. Well played, Yoon. Well played, indeed.

Can't wait for this game!!
Most important, it is a PS3 exclusive. It will allow Sucker Punch to really pack that dual layer blu-ray with insanely detailed world and graphics.....it will be what GTA4 should have been if it would have been an exclusive.
One of the defining games for the PS3 for sure.
