Sucker Punch Kills InFamous 2's New Cole

[LightspeedJack]

So they went from the generic Nathan Drake look to the generic bald head look. Yay?

 

[Anchupom]

What? I liked the new look. It seemed a little more minimalistic then the look from inFamous 1.

Still, I liked the first so much that I'll probably end up getting the second even if they decide to dress Cole up in skinny jeans, a puffy shirt, and a 2 foot tall pink mohawk.

I'd definitely play if he looked like that. We don't see enough lunatics as the protaganist...

 

[Jared]

I didnt see any problem with it,. but, I suppose nice to see the developers listening to the community

 

[Baldry]

Its not that I didn't like the change its that I didn't like the massive change that they did and almost changed him into a completely new person.

Developers need to stop making their characters look like Nathan Drake.

quoted for truth. to many characters look and sound like Nathan Drake nowadays.

also; YYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!
why did they change my gravely potato man in the first place though? i guess that will be a mystery for the ages...

 

[MrSnugglesworth]

Aww, I was really looking forward to watching my friend play was that guy.



*sigh* Oh well.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Developers need to stop making their characters look like Nathan Drake.

That's so fucking true >.>
They're doing it subtly now but soon enough

Batman with hair and tattoos on the costume.

OT: Cool, I really do hope this game is awesome, as I LOVED the first one.

 

[CoverYourHead]

Good! Now he actually looks like his original character, not some Nathan Drake rip-off. Not that I don't like Nathan Drake, but Cole should remain Cole.

Plus, it would have been strange playing as a character that looked so radically different from the original.

 

[Truly-A-Lie]

Well, I really didn't mind but for continuity's sake I'm glad it's back.
As for the voice, it made no sense for a bike messenger who climbs in the sewers in his spare time to sound like Christian Bale's Batman, so the new voice is an improvement. IGN have a video of the new comic style cutscenes that show off a little more of the newer voice and it's close enough to the original to still be Cole, but different enough to have a noticeable improvement.

 

[Aerodynamic]

Honestly I'm glad for this. The other Cole just didn't make much sense.

He went from what seemed like an old, world-weary, mature, level headed character into a young, cocky, more immature character. Add on top of that what happened at the end of the first game

Spoiler

He finds out Kessler is him from the future, and came back to make Cole stronger by giving him his powers, then killing Trish to leave Cole with no distractions when an ultimate, evil being comes looking for Cole

It just doesn't seem that Cole would pull that kind of character change after that. Plus he kind of looked like a douche, so yeah.

I like his new voice though. And it sounds kind of like Ellis from Left 4 Dead 2.

Everytime I hear his voice I expect him to start with one of his storys.
"Did I tell ya about the time me and Zeke were on top of a roof fighting reapers?"

That's disappointing I liked new Cole. It was an interesting change.

 

[MrMisfit]

I never had a problem with Cole's new look. My problem was with the personality makeover they gave him. In inFAMOUS he was a somewhat dark/brooding type and from what I gathered from 2's trailers they intend on changing him into a sarcastic jackass. That still doesn't sit too well with me (i'll still buy the game though).

 

[Mcface]

HUZZAH! Baldy's back!

Calumon: Hey baldy! You haven't got any hair, wanna know why? 'Cos your so bald!

the the better to headbutt you with!

 

[inFAMOUSCowZ]

thank you baby jesus. I know its too much to ask for the same voice actor but, at least they changed his looks. Now he doesnt look like Nathan Drake

 

[Doc Cannon]

I hope they do the same thing with Max Payne 3... :/

 

[TheAmazingTGIF]

Words can't describe how happy I am.

 

[Evil the White]

HUZZAH! Baldy's back!

Calumon: Hey baldy! You haven't got any hair, wanna know why? 'Cos your so bald!

Sorry, had to post this to respond, it seems fitting:

OT, I didn't really care that much. Maybe it would've been better if you got the tats and stuff if you took the more evil path, instead of removing it.

 

[Mistermixmaster]

Allright! Can't wait to join up with the real Cole and zap some bastards xD
