I'd settle for a remastered 1 and 2. (Which can be farmed out to other devs) Those games were great fun but painful to play at 25 fps

Dear Sucker Punch, Please Give Infamous Another Chance

Unfortunately, I have no attachments to inFAMOUS series, so I'm not that mind if they don't want to make it anymore.

Inventive original superhero settings are a real rarity and the powers in Second Son felt amazing despite the ways it fell short compared to the original games. If they could just nail the formula again I think they'd have something incredible on their hands.
That said, I liked Ghost of Tsushima, although more for its story than its gameplay or open world.

Was Second Son snubbed by people? I don't remember people talking about that game that enthusiastically back then. Maybe that reception led them to create another franchise?
Ghost of Tsushima was a bigger hit so they'll continue to make that. And Spider-Man already got the Superhero thing covered anyway.
I would be more than okay with this. Not really interested in another infamous, though they could use some of those ideas on an Iron Man game - and Sony got the license for at least 1 Iron Man game, so make it happen.
I liked Second Son and First Light as sort of early gen open world showpieces but I like Ghost a lot more as a concept.
While I love infamous I would rather they char Brandon Sanderson since he said he would love Mistborn to be made into a game (by cdpr but I guess that may have changed now...) either that or Stormlight Archives.
Sucker punch could do an amazing job of either

Second Son/Last Light are my favourites of the Infamous series, but honestly I'm fine if they want to leave the franchise dead. The ridiculously simplistic morality system is dumb and I'm not sure any of the characters are interesting enough to return to besides maybe Fetch.
Has anyone actually played first light on ps5?
60fps, HDR, added effects.
The game looks AMAZING and has one of the tightest controls I've ever played

The first Infamous game didn't even come out in the last decade...
They made two sequels, both of which came out before 2015 was even a year. Either you're exaggerating or are terrible at math...
Also, another Sly Cooper can be made by the same team that made Thieves in Time. And a Ghost of Tsushima sequel sounds like a TERRIBLE idea, given the story. Don't know why this thread would be opposed to another Infamous game, the series was absolutely fantastic and it deserves a return...
You are asking the wrong people. Should poke SIE about it since Sucker Punch is a SIE studio. 😏
I just started replaying Infamous 2 yesterday. The visuals in cutscenes still hold up VERY well.
I'm down for whatever SP wants to do, whether that's a new game in the series or something else entirely.
Tsushima sequel is a definite though and I'm eagerly looking forward to it.
A new Sly Cooper would be nice too.

I would actually love to see a full remake. Like, the stories of both games combined into a single massive title with unified visuals and gameplay. Unlikely though.
Yeah, it was so much better than just another open world BOTW-type game. GoT is just super boring for me. BOTW perfected that type of gameplay and nothing else hits the same for me. The story was bland, the characters were bland, it was nice visually but that's about it. The first Infamous game is something I remember playing to this day, it left an impact on me. I would love to see more games like that instead of following trends. Sony already has an open world action adventure series (Horizon), I would prefer them to diversify more
This was the coolest shit leading up to PS4's launch. It was actually the first game I played on my PS4 and I absolutely loved it.
I'll probably pick up GoT when I can get it for like $20-$30, but tbh I'd rather have more inFamous as that interests me far more than GoT ever will.
At the very least Sony should give it to another team.
Yeah I thought of this idea as well. It is the next step.
Why wouldn't a sequel work? Even a direct sequel is hinted at.
You know it can't happen. The studio who made Thieves in Time (Sanzaaru Games) are owned by Facebook now. Not happening.
No. Even if Sucker Punch pitched ideas for new InFamous games to SIE, in the end it's SIE's call.
How likely is it that sony expands SP to work on 2 games at the same time?
Would they need to double in size? Get 200 new employees or so?
Either way if they go that route it would take a while.

The difference is infamous is more unique than those.
Or anyone thinks if infamous was multiplat it wouldnt be more popular than SR? Though they are still different games ofc.
I did and it was my first time playing it. Zipping around condensed Seattle is a lot of fun, plus Fetch is actually an interesting character unlike Delsin.
I'd definitely like to see more from the world, but they can keep Cole. He did nothing for me.
Give me a few First Light length content with different, diverse characters set in the same city.

Remasters sure, but I don't think Sucker Punch needs to go back to the series. I haven't played Ghost yet but I'm fine with Sucker Punch doing new stuff and getting my Superhero fix from Insomniac's Spider-Man games. I really would hate for them to bring back Cole. 2's endings were great and they don't need to do anything more with his story. I already was a little on the fence about Second Son making 2's 'good ending' canon, but the game was enough fun that I let it slide.
I'd love another one. Infamous 2 was one of the best games on the PS3 and with the power of modern technology they could some great things regarding traversal and depth of game world.
Hell, combine the two. Given that in the first game Kessler travelled back through time you could just send someone further back in time to feudal Japan. Boom Infamous Ghost, start printing the money now!

Sly Cooper had more potential.
also I always chose the good side and never used the evil side stuff. So any game that has that false choice of being good or bad (since I always choose good) loses points for content I won't access.

No
They hit the jackpot with GoT
Sly got a trilogy
Infamous got a trilogy (and multiple expansions)
Those IPs are done, SP has found significant success elsewhere....
