Penny Arcade Expo 08: Sucker Punch Interview

+ Posted by Jeff Rubenstein // Sr. Social Media Manager

You’ve got questions, we’ve got answers. When we asked what you wanted to know about inFamous (and developer Sucker Punch Productions), you didn’t disappoint. Those questions were posed to Ken Schramm of Sucker Punch on the show floor at PAX – here’s the video:

We’ll have more on inFamous for you (of course!) as we draw closer to the Spring 09 release timeframe.

Come on Jeff, you could have at least ask him when the game is coming out, and if there will be a demo on the Playstation store before the game was release. Other than that, great interview

    Well it\’s scheduled (as he mentions) for Spring 09, and there\’s not been anything more specific than that yet (we\’re still technically Summer 08!)

I am really excited about inFamous, i’m glad Sucker Punch has been given some extra time to polish it. The game looks better and better each time i take a look.

I didn’t like inFamous before, but I have to say after seeing a few iterations of the trailer.. it’s looking really good lately. Suggestion to Sucker Punch: Throw in a few other super-hero or villain types that we can play + online multiplayer and it’ll be a MUST buy in my book. Perhaps in inFamous 2 eh?

lol at 1:57 in the background

+ subbed on September 5th, 2008 at 12:32 pm said:

Polish it up. I think its looking good but animations look a bit off. Also some of the character poses seem too rigid. I think that will be fixed up in the polishing but I notice it in all the vids I see of this game. Hope this game turns into one of those gems of this gen.

um jeff my question was how is it like to goes from making a game for kids to a game for for a more mature audience.i know it would a great question i a lil sadden it wasnt asked i think it got over look because i mention the sly cooper game so i guess it was misunderstood.

if u get a chance can you ask them that one question before game release.

+ Jeigh on September 5th, 2008 at 1:14 pm said:

I don’t know why, but I always seem to forget how good some of these games look. Any quirks in the animations or graphics as a whole have plenty of time to get worked out before Spring ’09, so I’m not worried there. I just can’t wait to actually get my hands on this game! :D

Thanks guys!! Looks a little grainy/momotone, stilll looks interesting enough to try, i like the grappling climb scheme they seem to be employing.

Great but short interview but great nonetheless

Could you bring someone from Motorstorm 2 to talk about it and maybe get the release date? Thanks

    Yes, Motorstorm PR is very close, we\’ll have more soon.

just gotta say thank you for a great blog, always nice stuff here. Like this one and the insomniac interview, not too long and interresting!
The readers ask good questions too, not in here when you ask for them though.
dont feel like we need anymore than threespeech in europe as long as I get to read this one. Just keep in mind you got a lot of europian readers too!

game looks so sick guys! I really love the direction that you guys have taken with the whole comic book tie in for the game. really adds something special to it. On a side note who else here thinks that Cole looks vaguely familiar to our hero Hale? I think Cole looks like an urbanized domestic version of Nathan Hale. can i get an amen? anyone… LOL

cheers,

Hah, thanks!

I didn’t want a shoutout, but that was awesome anyway. I just meant if you were naming the question askers. :D

Proud mine was, “another good question”.

Thanks again Jeff and everyone behind the PSBlog for being at PAX.

+ barom on September 6th, 2008 at 1:36 am said:

man, these interviews are wayyy too short. Don’t get me wrong, I appreciate them nonetheless.

Anyway, this is one of my most anticipated game of all the officially announced ones. Heavy Rain and Team ICO’s project (even though I don’t know wth it is) are by far the games I’m most excited about.

You should have asked why their game looks so boring and slow compared to Prototype.

will infoumus or however you spell it have trophies ?

+ Ajora on September 7th, 2008 at 8:52 am said:

It’s a sad day to see that gamers care only about trophies rather than gameplay, story and graphics :(
Anyways it was a great interview. I’m a big Sly Cooper fan (he’s awesome rackoon thief :P). It would have been nice to ask him do they have any other projects in mind like maybe Sly 4?

Not that I’m not excited about inFamous it’s gonna be crazy fun too.
