inFAMOUS: Second Son Standard Edition (PlayStation 4)





Made PS4 Worth It - SPOILER-FREE REVIEW
If you've unfamiliar with inFamous, the concept is the coolest thing you could ask for in a game. Every inFamous game is a sandbox with endless freedom, like GTA, but you've got super powers. While other super hero games are limited to established abilities, whatever was introduced in their respective comics, inFamous gives you Cole MacGrath and now Delsin Rowe, characters with completely fresh powers that grow until the game's completion.

inFamous 2, in my opinion was hands down, the best game for the PS3 and my personal favorite game of all time. Suckerpunch provided the aforementioned concept, incredible voice acting, beautiful graphics, great story & characters, finely crafted cut scenes & well written dialogue and fun, fun, fun gameplay. It's a 10. So inFamous Second Son was anticipated with high standards to be met or surpassed.

Upon first hearing Delsin talk, I said to myself, "Oh screw this guy." I immediately missed Cole But as the story...

This is where it is at
First, you have probably noticed that there is no verified purchase. If you want you can check my profile, I will be posting a review of the version I bought. I bought the limited edition one. The reason I am reviewing the standard is this:

A. It is basically the same game (minus a couple unlockables)
B. I love telling people about great games
C. I am tired of spam unfair reviews.

Letter c is the real reason I decided to write this. At the time of writing this review, there is one person who has reviewed this game, on all three editions, and gave the same 1 star review on all three editions. If you click on his profile, it is full of them. On 6 playstation games, he has given one star reviews with bad reasons.
Now to the actual game:
For a couple of months now I have been waiting for this game, and I am not disappointed. This shows off what we will come to expect from our next gen systems. With just 5 months after the launch of the ps4, we do...

Starts out slow, picks up speed, then bang!
It took me some time to get into Infamous Second Son. I was a fan of the previous titles and was super excited for this one.
However, after starting it I was not really blown away (the graphics were amazing but the story was not).
However, after you advance and begin to learn to powers the story started to grow on me too and by the time I was finished I immediately started a new game to play through on a harder difficulty and as an evil version of Delsin.

The villain in this game is awesome, I really wish they had more screen time since they make you love to hate them.
The graphics in this game are quite possibly the best this gen, so far. The effects and the facial expressions are top notch, though some characters work better than others and a few (the females mainly) came off a bit awkward.

The powers are awesome, and though some are basically clones of the others (blasts, flight) they all have enough little differences to make switching them out...
