The coop stuff is the thing that really piques my curiosity about this. It looks good and the crowds... yeah, wow for the crowds, but it still looks like the same gameplay with a kitchen sink of missions and jobs strewn about the sandbox. I've played that alot and while it was mostly fun, coop would really bring this…

The akura guys are gang members, it's just a really silly name replacement for yakuza.

Infamous is all about the super hero thing. While seattle certainly is an evocative setting and works really well for Infamous, as an open world game it can't compete.
