Second Son Announcement

[FootloosePhoenix]

I think he's implying that it could be after either ending. Both John and Cole "decimated the east coast" as The Beast.

Well MichaelM also said

after the East Coast was ultimately decimated by a group of powerful superhumans.

Unless I'm forgetting something about the Good ending, I think that hints pretty strongly at Second Son making the Evil ending "canon."

Several conduits were created by John as well. I think it's intentionally vague so either ending could work.

Good ending: some conduits survived

Evil ending, Cole and The Gang were stopped by the government

Or just so they don't crush the dreams of either side til later.

Keep in mind that over the course of inFamous 2, the Beast is decimating the East Coast and stated that his method of destruction was his Ray Sphere Blast, which undoubtedly created more Conduits. This could be focusing on the story of some of those people, or the aftermath of the Beast's destruction. Of course, there's always the theory that John's powers let out a large amount of "Conduit radiation" into the air and possibly affected many people over the years, and if you count weather trajectory spreading the radiation all over the US and possibly the world, there's a chance that Delsin caught the strain when he was 17 and his powers remained dormant until they exposed themselves in a moment of extreme stress, in this case the bus crash and in Cole's case, the RS explosion.

This could work in the Good ending too.

14? I think you mean 17.

No, Second Son is a brand new storyline within the inFAMOUS franchise featuring an all new lead protagonist, Delsin Rowe, with a new origin story. While key events within the inFAMOUS universe do tie the games together, Second Son is not a continuation of inFAMOUS 2 as a third title in the Cole MacGrath saga.

Well that's pretty much all he can say at this point.

[MythStorm24]

Micheal I'm gonna have to ask for a playable demo at PAX Seattle.

By the way, THERE HAS TO BE A SPP FORUM EASTER EGG!

[shicky_shock11]

Micheal is starting to sound like a broken record...

YES! Just even a computer somewhere with the forums would be enough. Even better would be them offering us little VO parts. Or mentioning us in the "Special Thanks To" section.
