inFAMOUS 2 'Hero Edition' revealed and detailed photo

Oh wait, you thought inFAMOUS 2 would get away with not receiving its own collector's edition? You thought wrong, son! Amazon accidentally spilled the beans on a Hero Edition for the upcoming open-world PS3 sequel, and tried to hide the evidence. Not before the Internet nabbed all the info, though!

Here's what the Hero Edition will include:

  • 8.5" Cole MacGrath statue
  • DLC Super Voucher -- includes Lightning Hook Power, Electrocution Grenade Power, Kessler Skin, 24K Gold Amp Weapon Variant. 
  • Mini inFAMOUS #1 comic 
  • Official soundtrack

Seems like it ticks all the boxes, with nothing we haven't seen before but it should be a nice option for hardcore fans. Also, it would appear that all the big Sony-exclusive sequels are getting special editions. Killzone 3, LittleBigPlanet 2, and now inFAMOUS 2. Don't be surprised to see news of a Chimera Edition for Resistance 3 popping up before release.

Could you imagine the special edition of twisted metal with a limited edition miniature sweet tooth remote car! AHHHHHH That would be great!

I will be getting the game, but for the most part I want nothing to do with extra little statues that will just clutter up the place and such. That said, if Dark Souls has a collector's edition with Old King Not-Doran's armor in it or something, then obviously I would get that and gently wipe it down every night.

I don't usually get collectors editions but if R3 has one I'm all over it. This, not so much.

Its definetly something I'll get, I love Infamous, though if I was getting a statue I'd rather get one that looks like him from the first game, or the way he looked before they made him look like old cole for the new game.

Seemingly cool. Might as well pick this one up - if the price is right...

If the soundtrack has the version of "House of the Rising Sun" that is playing in the background of the current trailer on PSN I might spring for this. I don't know who's covering the song, but I'm kinda diggin it.

Does this mean the Good and Evil decisions you made in the first inFamous are coming back? If they do I hope the story plays out differently for good and evil Cole

Subway's got a contest going on where they're giving these away. Also dlc. It's nice to know what it actually contains though

The amazon listing also suggests a replica sling pack. that may be the backpack we're all seeing, which would make this a must buy for me.

I'm not even a a big fan of infamous...but I want that figured XP

If I had the money, I'd buy the best edition for all 20 PS3 exclusives this year. I got the LBP2 collectors edition, and I know I will get the best edition of Uncharted 3; but everything else will have to be the regular edition *sadface

Collector's Edition "Super Vouchers" make me sad. I'll bet the soundtrack is digital too.
