Sucker Punch Take A Swipe At The Xbox 360

Despite being a free studio, Sucker Punch, the guys behind PS3 exclusive inFamous 2, aren’t shy at taking a dig at the Xbox 360.

As spotted by Geek Revolt, the latest gameplay video contains a cute little Easter egg, just in time for, well, Easter.  The video’s below.

What’s the dig?  An electronics store called, subtly, ‘Red Ring Electronics’, which comes complete with the familiar (albeit now outdated) and aptly infamous ‘red ring’ of death logo.

The gag’s at around the 3.30 mark.  They’re having a ‘blow out sale’, too, for double giggles.

Ah, what cads.

  7. Looks amazing, I love a cheap dig at the opposition too, being a PS fanboy and all. inFamous 2 is looking like a contender for GoTY too me, such a leap up from the first!
