inFamous 2 - HELP!

Uh, if I ain't wrong, we're supposed to be able to load up the first game's save file before starting a new game in inFamous 2, right? Mine doesn't seem to work, and I've finished the first game already. Is there some sort of requirements for this or what? It's annoying to know that I have to start the game all over again without the benefits gained from completing the previous game. Thanks for the help.

For me this happened automatically when I tried to start a new game in Infamous 2. My Infamous 1 clear save was on the same PS3 that I started the Infamous 2 game on. However, the only advantage it gives you is a XP headstart towards good or evil (you start at rank 1 of either instead of 0) so I wouldn't worry too much about it.

Oh, I see then. Thanks a lot for telling me that! I guess it's no problems then if the save file stuff didn't work.

I had this same problem. I had Platinumed the first game already AND I had both my Good and Evil games saves on my HDD. So I thought, "What gives?" After a little searching, I found that the reason is not just needing the trophies and saves from the first game on your hard drive, you need the install data from the first game on there, too.

Stupid? I believe so. But I think it has something to do with how they implemented the reward system.

I had a new HDD that I just put in, hence, no game data. Popped in the first game, let it install, then I swapped it out for inFamous 2. Selected a new game and bam! There are your reward options.
