Normally I would post this news as a sentence or two and be done with it.  Then Steven would create a post making fun of what I posted, and I would comment telling him he’s a loser.  This would go on and on until eventually I would post another article with a sentence or two.  Well I’m already on my fourth sentence so take that!  OK, I’ll write a bit more in-depth, but only because you all asked so kindly.

I could care less about the June 7th release date, but more on the fact that this year is really shaping up to be a wicked one for the PS3 in terms of first party offerings.  We’ve had LittleBigPlanet 2, Killzone 3 is literally right around the corner, and Uncharted 3 will end off the year with a bang.  That’s not including all the other crazy titles coming our way like the ICO/Shadow of the Colossus Collection.  That thing is going to rock…hard!  The rest of the competition has been somewhat quiet thus far, or is it just me?

Specially talking about inFAMOUS 2, I’d like to say that I only really got into the first one sometime last year.  While I played through the original when it was released, I mastered it much later.  It wasn’t the end-all, be-all I was hoping it would be, but it connected with me for one reason or another.  What this boils down to is that I’m very excited to get my hands on the sequel and see just how far Sucker Punch is able to move things forward.  The new powers look great, the graphics look greatly improved and overall it looks like a major upgrade compared to the original.  That’s what I like to hear!

Are you guys looking forward to inFAMOUS 2?  What about all the other big games Sony’s releasing this year?  Is this indeed the year of the PS3?

(EiC’s Note: Don’t forget about the $99 Hero Edition!  It comes with an 8.5″ statue of Cole, a replica of the pack Cole wears, exclusive access to hidden in-game content (including two powers), a comic from DC…and more!)
