Infamous 2 at PAX
IGN has posted an article about Infamous 2 at PAX. There's a short video showing off cattle prod gameplay in the article (however, it's a video from Gamescom, not PAX), but more importantly, IGN gives more details on "Cole's new power", which we previously saw in action at Gamescom:[...] but at one point, Cole took cover behind a truck before stepping back, lifting the truck into the air with electricity, and hurling it at the baddies.
Once the truck is floating in the air and suspended by Cole's power, the player just targets whatever he or she wants to hit with the truck with the onscreen reticle. Hit the button, and the truck is flung. Cole did the same move later but substituted a bench for the truck, so it looks like you'll be able to pick up just about anything this time around. (Source)
I hope everyone knows just how excited I am over the bolded bit. :DDD
