Sucker-punch is one my favorite developers. I wasted hours play Sly and Cooper. I totally agree with you Jem. I'm really hoping the game wasn't rushed or anything. The whole climbing and parkour elements look very fun. The story and the combat is what I'm worried about. The story can go either way so I guess I'm kind of worried about. It's just the combat man...it looks so repetitive. I'm thinking maybe they are holding some stuff back because it might ruin the story or they are waiting till May or beginning of June to get people psyched up, close to the release of the game. Come on Sucker-Punch. You haven't let me down before so don't let me down now!

The third video looks to be the trailer, its got some really nice platform elements can even climb lamp posts..

Cover system looks really good, he moves well and climbs a bit like spiderman, and can interact with the whole environment ?

Also the upclose combat system including kicks ?

This could turn out to be a very great game, I wasnt expecting much, but yeah im looking forward to this now, looks like my type of game..

one thing of your going to bach the little combat we have seen
(that can be change baced on how we spend points)
then do we bash ever shooter ever made as all guns shoot?
so far we have seen zap them at range
fire a ball that explodes
use a rail or some thing to carry a charge to the target
and hand to hand combat

It's common sense man. You get a general idea of how fun a game is by looking at screenshots, gameplay videos, developer diaries, etc. For example, look at Little Big Planet, Metal Gear Solid 4, Killzone 2, God of War 3, Gears of War 2, Left 4 Dead, Call of Duty 4, and Halo 3. I saw the gameplay videos of those games and it immediately clicked in my mind that the games I just listed are FUN. I'm just not getting that same feeling when I see Infamous. Like I said, Sucker-Punch is a talented developer and that's why I have high hopes for this game. I can't wait for the demo to come out so I can see for myself.

Some of those textures look super low-res...

Looks interesting though, if samey....will have to wait for the reviews.

These trailers could really use some music, give it some atmosphere, and at least detract from the feeling of monotonous and samey.

I guess you didn't watch the Superpowers trailer (the third trailer) or you wouldn't be saying that.

My honest opinion, this game looks rubbish, when it was announced it looked great and it had me intrested but after the first few gameplay videos were released I knew this was going to be one of those timepassers like TimeShift, and after these videos the combat system is just dissapointing, not only because its too repetetive, because even Assasins Creed gets repetetive, but the moves are really weak, The game looks worth a rent

the 3rd video is pretty bad ass...shame that you wont slow down time when attacking "well from what we know so far"

just hope the game plays as good as that trailer
but so far im not so hyped for this game

and ur right Jem the combat does seem it would get pretty dull after awhile hope theres more to it then there showing us

"inFamous is due out in around three months and we still haven't seen that much of it yet"

Actually I see this as a problem with gaming now... We see so much of these games before they come out that they are leaving less and less up to surprise! I just avoid media after I've seen enough to know that I'm looking forward to it. I saw a few videos of this game, I see that it looks like it has a pretty open world with actually fun looking gameplay and platforming, so I'm all set. I'll still wait for impressions and maybe a demo on this one though.

Yeah man I ruined RE 5 by watching to much gameplay videos. This is one of my most anticipated games of 2009 on the PS3. I'd be lying if I said I would rather have this than Sly Cooper but it'll have to do until SC gets official confirmation that its in development.

Cross Edge, Bionic Commando, UFC Undisputed, Infamous, Arkham Asylum & Wolfenstein are the only games I'm really interested on for the PS3 between now and the end of summer. Infamous really fits the style of games I like so I will just wait for the demo before I make a decision either way.

Still not feeling this game
Prototype might win me over when these 2 games out in June.

It reminds me of Crackdown and I didn't like that game. But let's wait for the demo and give it a chance...

I will buy both games. The parkour element of infamous looks to be great. And i really like the way you can move objects like cars and stuff. I watched a prototype video and that game seems to be more jump and repeatedly psuh the fire button to destroy everything in your path, while infamous seems to be more of a game where you level up your skills. And has more of an layup for a good story. Anyhow.. ill get both of them.

Same. I am not going to not play one over the other. They both look great, but they both have very different styles about them.

When the first screens/vids came out for them they looked... pretty much the same, but now its clear that they are two very different games.

Anyone know if you can turn off the HUD just like in Assassin's creed?

I really dislike karma meter and Xp counter. Kinda stops you from getting fully immersed into the game.

I downloaded these the other night off of PSN. I was impressed at first but then thought it seemed very repetitive. The AI doesn't look to be that great and the graphics didn't seem what they could be either. Then again, i'm sure they were compressed quite a bit. I would like to see a little more of this game. I keep getting hyped up about this but have a strong feeling that it'll flop. I'm really looking forward to the Demo coming out... that'll pretty much determine if i buy this for $60 or wait until it goes on sale some where
