inFAMOUS - The oFFicial Thread

I made 9 GIFs from an IGN video.
It would be retarded to make people download nearly 75 MB worth GIFs each time they reload this page, so click below the thumbnails to view the full, more detailed 640 x 340 version of the GIFs...

You can put these in the OP if you want, FFO.

Well, it's up. Again, this is all done from video taken off my DLP's screen, so its slightly washed out...

Awesome!! Really shows how insane the game gets, especially later on. Stuff flying everywhere, pyrotechnics, etc. It also shows how it's easier to be evil Cole, since most of that destructive stuff hurts innocents.

I only spent a few hours on it, but any feedback would be awesome!

Really good stuff. It would have been epic if you had a video capture card.

If SCE made multiple cool gameplay ads like this (obviously not as long) for every first-party game of theirs, think of how many games they'd sell... *sigh*
 
Thanks for the compliments. I was tired last night so didn't come up with anything cool to write, but I DID learn how to make some "sparking" and "electric" text. Soo maybe adding in a message should happen ASAP. Something about choosing to be good or bad.

If anyone comes up with suggestions for changing up the music and/or text, please share :lol

EDIT - Oh, is the official Sucker Punch website down?? Hm...
 
from the Gamestation site about the Uncharted 2 beta:

UK ONLY. Limited Offer while stocks last. Customers who have already preordered this product will also receive the bonus item. Your codes will be emailed to you on release of InFamous. Please ensure that the email address in Your Account is valid. You will need access to PlayStation Network and a broadband connection in order to download your Beta access.

so if I buy that from Spain they won't email me my U2 beta code? I think the beta is USA/UK only, maybe they haven't localised anything in the game yet.
 
I played inFAMOUS until 8 in the morning, so didnt reply earlier... just woke up. Damn this game to hell :lol

Xeno, awesome job at the trailer! I saw it twice... incredible. If you could edit it into a minute long trailer, it would easily pass for an official trailer.

Someone asked if there is a counter for blast shards per district. Sadly there isnt a counter per district, but you can save at any point, and then check your save file from within game... It will inform you of how many shards you have found out of the total. Its an overall counter. Same with dead drops. Your save file also shows your completion of the game (I'm more than 80% done), the number of upgraded powers you have, as well as the stunts out of the total you have done.

Pro-tip... try and get the stunts out of the way as soon as possible, definitely by the middle of the game, when you still havent taken over all territories. The problem is, I started on the stunts after 100 percenting all islands. One of the stunts asks you to take down 3 enemies <description of location and method of execution>
from the roof with a shockwave
, but at this stage there are no enemies to be found
on the roof of any building
:-(

Also, I hope someone will be kind enough to give me a Uncharted 2 Beta code if they have an extra. Like I said earlier, not getting that is my only regret at getting this game early.
 
Man I've experienced a real 180 with the game today. Suddenly I got better and combining the fluid acrobatic movement with the combat at the same time and I felt like I was living the comic dream, haha. I just want to move from building to building with no time limits! I'm glad it finally clicked with me. Looking forward to full release.

I've been recommending this game since day one and I've never been wrong.

Thanks for answering me. I have a few more: How many hours have you put into it to get to 80%? What are dead drops? Are the blast shards easy enough to find (like agility orbs in Crackdown) or tough to find (like the seagulls in GTA4)?

I ran into the same exact problem!

I would say at this point, i'm at the 25 hour mark. One of the few games where after the story has finished, I dont want to stop roaming the world.

Dead Drops are audio recordings left on satellite dishes. I wont say by whom or for what purpose, but I think there are some in the demo. They flesh out the story, and getting to them can be quite a bitch. They are in some out of the way places, same as shards.

The blast shards are pretty easy to find, but some of them are difficult to get. You will need to do some platforming as well as puzzle solving to get the tough ones. ex - They might be on top of a structure which you cannot climb. You will have to figure out a way! Same with dead drops. If you press L3, your map will show you where you can drain electricity (lightning sign), where the blast shards are (dark blue dots) and where the dead drops are (grey ring around the map.) Try it in the demo!

I hope that helps?

How did you solve it? I am thinking of saving that stunt for the next playthrough... or do the stunts not get carried over either? In which case... FFFUUUUUUUUUUU- :lol :lol

I didn't solve it. I'm trying to get that stunt on my evil playthrough, but I'm still having issues. Freaking enemies won't stay close enough together for me to do it. :( And nope, stunts don't get carried over either. Nothing does unfortunately...it really is starting a new game.

I can think of two missions where it might be possible:

1.
Dark Water... when the reapers/dustmen/first sons are guarding the water supply on the roof of the buildings.

2.
One of the last missions... when you have to destroy the anti-aircraft guns. Lots of enemies on the roof at that mission as well.

How many stunts do you have? I have 15 so far lol.

Yeah I'm trying it with #1 right now. They keep running around, so I've only been able to get 2 at a time. :lol I got up to 14 stunts on my good playthrough. I'm at 9 on my evil run right now.
 
Can someone upload the graphic novel, i can't download it for some reason. I think my University is taking the piss.

Edit: Missed it above

BADASS, I wish they had done this with Killzone 2 and The Watchmen.
I was talking to some of my friends who were into parkour.

There was interest in potentially making a cool video based on inFAMOUS once they got to try the whole game. I wonder if Sony's marketing campaign will include the popular activity in a live-action commercial. Anyone else want?

Hm, I can't seem to get to their site. It always lands on some lunarpages error.
 
The language thing is a really weird choice.

I hope enough annoying comments are posted so languages can be downloaded via PSN. I don't see why they would do this.
 
DevilWillcry said:
You heard it here first folks, InFamous has the Kittonwy seal of AFW approval :D

Teh Kittonz gives a PS3 exclusive game a paw of approval? Surprising!!!!!
j/k... kinda ;)

But yeah, this game is mighty AFW and has my seal of approval, which means nil.

The toughest one imo was where you had to
jump, shoot someone while you are in the air, then do a thunder drop on the same person.
That shit was fucking ridiculous.

Another tip to everyone: 100 percenting (taking all territories, no more side missions left) also reduces your chances of getting XP, so upgrade your powers pretty quick. I have only one power's highest level left to upgrade, and getting XP for it is a bitch. I've resorted to becoming a medic, healing people left and right to get Healing Touch 3 XP. Its gonna take ages :lol :lol

Hmm, what is this marketing shit? T:S should open big and they look to attract similar audiences.

Ugh, Terminator 4... why??? Oh well. Ads in movie theaters are a good idea.
 
I don't know how I totally missed this thread.

Got this preordered for a few weeks now from Amazon, Release date delivery ftw!

BTW, there's going to be a live chat with Sucker Punch this Wednesday on PS Blog.
