If recent rumors are to be believed we may be seeing an inFamous movie at some point in the future. Rerpots suggest that Sheldon Turner, the man behind The Longest Yard remake and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning has been hard at work writing up a screenplay to pitch to Sony.

If all goes well, further reports suggest that Avi Arad and Ari Arad, those behind the Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune movie, will be the main producers of the film.

Rajiv Ashrafi — Sat, 04 Jul 2009 18:18:11 +0000

Oh God, my eyes! While we’ve been celebrating independence and freedom through fireworks, groups of artists had been slaving away on a challenge set by the infamous Yahtzee who declared that between Sucker Punch and Radical – makers of infamous and Prototype, respectively – parody the other’s character the best gets to be the winner.

And then eyeballs exploded all over the world.

Cross-dressing was the name of the game, and the results are something that the world has never seen, and should never see. If you have the courage, hit the link for viewing Alex Mercer riding an unicorn and the infamous guy doing Vegas.

Pre-order inFamous, get access to Uncharted 2 multiplayer beta

Jeff Baker — Fri, 24 Apr 2009 22:21:25 +0000

The above picture of an inFamous pre-order box, taken at Best Buy, has been circulating the internet — As you can see, when you pre-order the game you will get access to now one, but two downloadable demos.

Sure it’s cool that you get access to an inFamous demo but the real treat is the fact that you get a voucher good for access to the Uncharted 2 multiplayer beta.

And yes, this is the first we’ve heard of Uncharted 2 having a multiplayer mode, too.

Uncharted 2 multiplayer revealed

James Hyde — Fri, 24 Apr 2009 21:34:50 +0000

Kotaku has revealed that pre-orders of inFamous will carry a multiplayer beta key to Uncharted 2, much as Crackdown did with the multiplayer beta of Halo 3. A sticker on the new placeholder boxes at Best Buy revealed the news — the placeholder boxes aren’t supposed to be revealed until next week, but that’s the thing about leaks…

The addition of a multiplayer element to an already great single player game is certainly welcomed by fans of the original Uncharted game. The sequel, Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, is set for release later this year.

inFamous Gone Gold

Rajiv Ashrafi — Fri, 17 Apr 2009 13:47:50 +0000

Web 2.0 has officially hit the gaming industry, as Sucker Punch announced through Twitter that inFamous, its upcoming super-powered open-world game, has gone gold.

Meanwhile, producer Brian Flemming revealed how the studio will be celebrating the end of over three years of development work, writing and creating new code and assets.

It’s a tradition here to bust out old builds and videos of the game and laugh at ourselves for how *crappy* the game was 2 years ago. It’s a strange combination of humiliation at how we ever showed those builds to people, appreciation to Sony for believing in us even when the game was so provably terrible, and sense of accomplishment at how far we were able to come, especially in the last 6-12 months. Plus it’s just plain hilarious to see some of our really BAD ideas on-screen.

inFamous is due out exclusively on the PS3 on May 26. A demo is due out on PSN on May 21, though those who pre-order the game will get access faster.

Sony, the publisher, in a rather stupid move announced that only those who pre-order the game will be given access to the playable demo on May 7. Peasant folk will have to wait till May 21.
