Character looks much better, but I'm not sure how they're going to explain him looking totally different (and sounding different too, new voice actor right?). Why not just make a new character? Time will tell I guess.

What the fuck, who the hell is that? Cole looked perfectly fine in the first game (at least in the comic cutscenes), this is waaaay too big of a departure.

 

[levious]

why such a drastic change in look?

 

[Peff]

Huh, looks like reverse Warrior Within :lol

 

[GeoramA]

YES!!!

 

[JWong]

He's got hair. 8D

 

[Synless]

Wtf did they do to Cole?

Yes, Saboteur used MLAA on PS3.

IIRC Saboteur used MSAA, not MLAA.

OH MY GOLLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Coloress_Kafka]

The new Cole looks hot.

It's like inFAMOUS was the comic book and inFAMOUS 2 the movie of the comic book.

Kinda like the new look though... Looks very super hero-esque.

 

[spats]

Interesting... Cole looks weird with hair though.

No, it used MLAA.

edit: WTF did they do to cole. He looks "hot"? He looks like a gym teacher. His messenger bag was distinctive...he looks like he is running to Abercrombie to open the store on his way to teaching gym

:lol It's like the design meeting of my dreams.

"What this game needs is a softer, more personable take on the lead."
"Yeah, and a more varied colour palette in a New Orleans-esque location."
"Maybe a less edgy soundtrack too?"
"Do you think we had too much blood?"

I stand corrected, thanks for clearing that up.

Basically it's the result of focus groups?...

Hope it's the same Voice

NO! THEY WILL NOT FUCK WITH THE SOUNDTRACK.

The character redesign is no big deal to me, but if they start to seriously mess with the stuff that worked, I will be ticked off. The first game had a fairly mature tone, so should this one. The first one had a great unique soundtrack. So should this one. Varied colour palettes is no big deal. I'm having a wait and see thing to see what they're gonna do to Cole. Hope that his personality remains relatively the same. Being more personable is a good thing in my book though.
