Sucker Punch has taken the road most traveled in a recent chat with Play-Mag in regards to inFamous 2. While the developer director did admit that they had made some dumb decisions in the first iteration of the franchise, he also made the claim that inFamous 2 could not be developed on any other console. We’ve heard this all before, but who are these guys trying to kid? With that aside, let’s get to the quote in general.

“We made some really dumb decisions in the last game, but we’ve managed to fix them. It was pretty early on that we knew what we weren’t doing in inFamous that we needed to do in inFamous 2, but we had to tear a whole bunch of stuff up and put it back together. In technical terms the biggest thing that we’ve done is migrate a much larger part of our code to run on the SPUs. The PS3 has this elaborate architecture where there’s a whole bunch of different places you can have your code run and we had it all running in the slow part,” states Zimmerman.

He continued: “If you look at games like Uncharted 2 that’s a game that you actually can’t do on Xbox no matter how clever you are, there’s just more processing power on the PS3. inFamous 2 is going to be the same way. You’ll look at it and see that there’s no way we could have done this game on 360.”

Regardless of if this is true or not, there is no denying that inFamous 2 looks absolutely sick. It is going to be one of those most anticipated PlayStation 3 sequels and exclusives of this generation by far and it should deliver on par with that hype.
