Awww...that sucks. I hate when they do recasts. Cole's voice wasn't the greatest, but I prefer consistency.

Well future cole has a different voice, so a change is acceptable.

Anyone wonder which pathway is canon?

I read the good karma path is the cannon one.

Looking into it further it seems which is canon has been undecided. I just remember reading through gamefaqs boards arguing for the good karma one having the better chance at being the correct one. So it's still speculation.

The way I took to the story?

I think Cole would follow good until getting to the Ray Sphere and absorbs it...becoming more powerful to protect those that he should've been able to originally protect.

Of course, sure that sends you off to the 'infamous' side of the board in the game but I don't think Cole would really change that much, just because he has more power he's not going to be come an evil jerkoff all of a sudden.

My reasoning? Trish and what happened to her.

Of course, I'm just speculating and I'm more than likely wrong.

Well he technically already had 2 voice actors for the same role, so why not a third?

Is this even news it's not like he has a unique video game character voice. He's just the standard deep/raspy/miserable sounding lead that they usually throw out for 80% of games.

I think the point is less that they're recasting Cole and more that it's a step closer towards an official confirmation that an inFamous sequel is coming... although we all already knew that.

it's news because they wouldn't recast a character if they werent making a sequel, that's the part worth posting.

Something tells me that twittering that you just completed an audition for an unannounced software title could reflect negatively on your chances of getting the job.

My thoughts exactly. Has propriety in business fallen this far since 2006?

Hopefully the sequel doesn't end up on the PSP the way VC2 did. Sony seems to be wanting to drag people to the handheld lately. Just want them to keep their franchises where there fans are.

Sony didn't force Sega to make that decision, Sega made it on their own. They are trying to appeal to another audience since the game didn't receive the welcome it should have on the ps3. If this one fares well, they will probably return to the ps3. It's all about branching out!

One major difference is that Infamous relay heavily on PS3 hardware whereas VC can be adjustable to the PSP because of its art and gameplay.

they shouldnt even make a sequel, leave the original game as the great game it was, and move on to another idea

Why would you want to leave a good game that ended abruptly, leaving room for further expansion of the story alone?

Yeah except the ending of inFamous did leave room for a sequel and I would really like to see the universe expanded. Suck punch have never let me down so they may do as they wish!

Maybe it's the same guy and he just misunderstood what was being asked of him:

"You want me to do inFamous, a gay porno starring Famous Freddy? I'm all for that!"

I'm glad they are working on a sequel. I could care less about the voice actors though as long as it's quality.

This is probably my favorite game this year so far but that may change when I get off of work in an hour. :)

I loved the game, the only game I've put enough time into to get all the trophies. I will definetly be a sequel, and get others to by the first one and the second one.

Well inFamous ended up being my favorite PS3 exclusive yet. I'm fine with a voice recast as long as his voice is decent. The original Cole's voice was pretty lame but I got used to it.

Definitely, the platforming stealth element of sly cooper I loved throughout the series, if sucker punch brought that 2007 rumored sly 4 to life I'd probably licking a newly bought ps3.

Oh God! Even as a joke that makes me shudder. Keep him as Drake, make him stay the **** away from everything else. He's incapable of sounding different.

@Discotheque:

He sure sounded different as Desomond in Assassin's Creed and in other games: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nolan_North

He was the Prince in the latest Prince of Persia game. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't disconnect the voice from that of Nathan Drake. That was one of the many things that turned me off of that game.
