When we read on superannuation that Sucker Punch was looking for a lead character artist -- one that "should be aware of current urban style and street fashion" -- we, like you, thought, "Oh, that's nice, Sucker Punch is making another inFamous game." But, since we're professionals, we went beyond our first instinct to see what else we could come up with. We then decided that we were pretty sure about the inFamous thing after all.
So remember, if Sucker Punch is making a sequel to Marc Ecko's Getting Up (which has got to be called Marc Ecko's Going Back to Bed) or a new Jet Grind Radio, you saw the possibility roundly dismissed on Joystiq first.

Jet Grind Radio is never coming back. I've accepted that reality, and I've moved on.

I needs my Jet Grind Radio!
I keep hoping that at least ONE of the systems will start releasing DC classics for download. (It'd be a short list but still a good one no?) Power Stone 2 FTW!

Don't give up. Sega has to give us Jet Grind or Space Channel 5 eventually

Hmm, I can just imagine it now, all the mutants walking around looking hip in thier Tims etc blasting off fireballs and whatnot. Hold up a sec....if you get hit with a fireball, what difference does it make that you're hip? Your clothes would be burnt to cinders O.o

I'm thinking its gonna be Sly4. If you've played Infamous, Cole was basically Sly right? The way he moved, climbed, and interacted with the environment. So I'm thinking Infamous was their experiment to see how a next-gen Sly game would be like on the PS3.

If Sucker Punch makes an inFamous sequel or starts another franchise before making another Sly Cooper game, it's a good bet the Sly Cooper franchise will be dead forever. Which is sad, Sly was a good game and the PS3 is really weak in it's target demographic. The worst part is, they announced a PS3 Sly game in May 2007 and dropped it for inFamous. So close, so close.

There's still Insomniac's Ratchet & Clank, and I believe Naughty Dog's planning a new Jak & Daxter.
Sly's gonna have to get in the middle of that pile if he wants a piece of the demographic this generation.

I'm really glad Ratchet and Mario are still holding down the platformer fort. It's still my favorite genre, and aside from the two mentioned, LittleBigPlanet and Braid, there haven't been many great ones on home consoles this generation.
More generic shooters with a gimmick than you can shake a stick at, though.

I suspect this might cause inFamous 2 to have unreasonable amounts of product placement. Which would be fine with me if you could blow up billboards with those brands on them. (:

I really don't think Naughty Dog are going back to Jak and Daxter. There hasn't been any Ape Escape ps3 announcement. Sly 4 probably has most potential out of all of them.

I really want inFamous 2 but Sly 4 just as badly. I don't care which they do first just please work on your great franchises Sucker Punch.

Magic City Man knows a thing or two about being urban, judging from the mega64 snapshot you used for this article. I love it.
