People around the gaming industry are already picking this game to be the sleeper hit for the PS3 in 08, and after seeing the trailer and looking at the screens I’m inclined to agree with them whole heartedly. Brian Fleming, the cofounder of sucker punch, describes the game as:

Infamous will have a nonlinear, open environment style of gameplay. We are making a superhero sandbox game that will allow players the freedom to play the game the way they want to play it. You couple some really rich powers with a really reactive environment and population, and you end up with something players haven’t seen before.

All I can say is I can’t wait to see the final product in action. Strap in PS3 owners cause this looks to be an enjoyable thrill ride.
