Sony has been teasing a huge announcement involving inFamous and Uncharted 2. Well, a Kotaku reader has discovered what that announcement (probably) is. The reader snapped a picture of inFamous pre-order boxes that show that the game will come with a multiplayer beta voucher for Uncharted 2. So not only do you get Sucker Punch's electrifying (*snicker*) game, you also get to delve into the new multiplayer world imagined by Naughty Dog.

While the revelation is exciting for PlayStation 3 gamers, it's also kind of amusing for those that follow the business. Executives and developers at Sucker Punch and Naughty Dog (and Insomniac) are known to be tight -- almost like BFF developers. While this move can be seen as Sony leveraging one of its established franchises to boost sales of one of its new ones, I prefer to look at it as BFF developers helping each other out.

Anyway, will the inclusion of the Uncharted 2 multiplayer beta influence your decision to buy inFamous? Were you on the fence about it before, but totally into it now? Leave a comment and let me know (please)!

I might get the game now inFamous just to play Uncharted 2 Beta :D

LOL.That reminds me of Crackdown for the 360 years back.People were hardly interested in the game until they announced that it would include a Halo 3 beta code.

is it just multiplayer or Single Player? Because Uncharted Doesn't seem like Mp would work that good. They would have to change a lot of thing to get Mp working properly.

It says Multiplayer Beta.....So I am guessing multiplayer.They already announced that the game would have Co-op and MP.

I thought that 'InFAMOUS' looked boring but after having watched the last 'InFAMOUS' video, I completely changed my mind. I'll definitely be getting it. And that Uncharted 2 multiplayer beta.......that's awesome news! I just hope the offer is not exclusive to BestBuy because EBGames is where I usually get my games.

Wait what, when did they announce multiplayer and co-op .. the multiplayer is news to me, and the coop is even better news? Is there an announcement or interview i missed?

Oh wow. Seriously. wut? What's with this demo/pre-order/retarded DLC 'fad' that's going round at the moment. Ahh well... it's official - my next console is an Xbox. There, I said it. Why do I have to pre-order a game to get the same content? Why do I have to pre-order to play the demo of ANOTHER GAME? Why pay for DLC when 3 years ago you got a full game with 3 times as much content as now? Pfft. Pfffffft.

I hate to burst your bubble, but publishers for Xbox games do the same thing, unfortunately.

It is dev's who do this.If infamous and uncharted was multiplatform it would be like this for the PS3 and 360.Far Cry 2 was the same way.You pre-ordered the game and got extra missions you could not get by just buying the game.....And this was for the 360,PC and PS3 version.Besides I am sure there will be an Uncharted 2 and infamous demo on the PS store one day for free.

Obviously Uncharted 2 fans will pre-order the game from Best Buy to get the Beta version of Uncharted 2. ;)

This has nothing to do with inFamous, they're just trying to promote one game with the beta* for another. They need to test out the multiplayer for the game, their rewarding people that deposit their money for a game early by giving them the option to play in a multiplayer beta, to TEST out the servers/gameplay etc. what better way to do it then promote sales of one game.

And btw, everyone does this. The only one that doesn't do this is ... oh yea, enjoy your Wii.

Aren't you just a little whiner? Get your 'box, and may a thousand red rings descend upon you for the irritating post.
