The PlayStation 3 is starting to get some serious momentum in terms of hot exclusives, and while inFamous has always looked a bit too generic for its own good, this new "I Am Scared" trailer has raised my interest considerably.
A little girl who sounds frighteningly like Newt out of Aliens is talking about a guy who looks frighteningly like Stone Cold Steve Austin out of The Wrestle Shows, who has electric powers and rides trains. If it actually was Newt and Stone Cold, that would probably be the greatest premise for a videogame in the world. Still, we'll have to make do with what we have.
Here's hoping inFamous holds up and keeps the PS3's little hot streak running. It's taken long enough for Sony to have some bragging rights. Hit up Samit's preview for more information on the game.

I still hate his lighting-shooting animations. The camera angle makes him look like he's trying to hail a cab.
This can only get better if Newt gets a Stone Cold Stunner, btw
