Despite inFamous 2 being one of my highlights from E3, the redesign of Cole was definitely a lowlight. Sure the original character wasn’t exactly… original. But after spending dozens of hours churning out a true superhero a lot of gamers felt let down seeing the “new and improved” Cole MacGrath Sucker Punch was trotting around. The character had gone from gruff messenger to frat boy faster than you could grind a train rail.

So imagine my excitement today to read IGN saying that they were handed some super secret RE-redesign photos of Cole, and he’s looking a lot more like the previous game. No images are leaked for public consumption as of this point.

Now that we’ll only have to deal with an entirely new voice actor, inFamous 2 may start to feel like a sequel instead of a spin-off.
