Video: Infamous 2 - "The Beast Is Coming"



Wow... While I am not in love with the 2 seconds of game/5 seconds of black ratio in the trailer, it is nothing if not stylish. I admit, when I first saw an image of The Beast at the end of Infamous 1, I did not expect him to be very big, just the size of a man, possibly with superpowers. But after seeing this trailer... wow, he is going to be one hell of a formidable foe; did you see the size of that hand?! I am especially loving the new cinematic aspect of this game, as it seems to have taken a step back from the cartoon-y aspect of last game's "cutscenes" (read - not the graphic novel-style ones). Makes the character feel a little more alive, and not just like some comic book character who you just happen to be playing as.

As the game is due to be released two weeks from today, this is likely the last trailer Sony and Sucker Punch will release for this title. However, there is likely to be plenty of leaked footage from the game and the beta over the next couple weeks - check on Youtube or gaming message boards for 'em!

Infamous 2 is due out on June 7th, 2011 exclusively for the Playstation 3. For those of you Uncharted fans, like myself, picking up a copy of this gets you early access to the Uncharted 3 multiplayer beta that will be occurring in late June.
