Enjoyed the new format, all it needs now is shelves of weaponry in the background and we're sorted!

Considering Klepek claimed to really like the first game, I find it very strange that he talked about being locked into one power at any given time, saying that the new game gives you more "options". inFamous made great use of the entire controller to let you have access to basically everything at all times.

Already excited for infamous 2. I thought the first game got a bit redundant at times, but from what I'm hearing from Brad, infamous 2 might have a similar AC1 to AC2 like quality improvement.  Hope you guys go forward with the "Man, I Saw That" feature for future games, loved the segment

I liked the first one. I just hated having to charge up all the time. I understand this helped to restrict you for acting too crazy but I would have just like to be fully powered at the end without charging.

That was a fantastic feature. Seemed way more directed then a typical AMA, but it didn't seem overly scripted to the point of being awkward.


More of this.

Because E3 is a nightmare for game journalists, at the end of which they are either sick or exhausted for the next week or so.

You mean it's not a Brad Nicholson post? :-) Agreed. Patrick has improved the day to day news on the site by far. it's night and day to what it was before...

Why is this format better than Ask Me Anything? Because we get to hear about the game, and not hear two guys watching a video of a game. This format eliminates moments like:

"What was that?"

"Oh, that's the new ice powers that--"

"Whoa! What was that!?"

"Uh, that's the new traversal system, as I was saying ice powers--"

"That monster is huge!"

Instead of concentrating on what they are watching and what one of the people saw, we get to watch cool stuff on our own while the guy that saw the stuff can fill us in, uninterrupted. I like the Ask Me Anything videos because I like the GiantBomb crew, but when it comes to pure preview game information, this new format is awesome. Keep up the good work folks.

I feel like this should be an editorial rather than a video, but I did really enjoy it. I'd like to see more videos like this in the future.

I bought the first game because of Brad's review, played through it and didn't find it special at all. I think the "action" was pretty boring and redundant. Prototype came out roughly the same time but it was at least a little more enjoyable because the powers were more satisfying. I won't sure won't buy this game.

Still haven't played the first. It was one of the reason I wanted a PS3 too. I guess I should get around to the first at some point.

Don't listen to these haters   Klepek, they did the same thing with Vinny. But in all honesty I think he seems like a good guy, very knowledgeable and a solid addition to the giant bomb crew.

Yeah, I agree. This isn't a new feature, it's just Ask Me Anything with a camera on the people talking. "
In an AMA the person talking usually played the footage they show, although this difference doesn't warrant a new name.

Looks really awesome.  Better Infamous sounds good to me.  I really like the new run animation.  Before he ran like a cartoon character.  


L.A. Noir in few weeks, then Infamous 2.

I don't even know what the hell happened in the story... I just know it was fun as hell to play. Good for me. Hopefully the story is better this time around though, well, not the story per se but how the story is told I guess.. I dunno.. I'll shut up now.
