    Generic openworld game, it doesn't shine in any aspect but also it doesn't fail in anyone. Once you start it you won't stop until you have cleaned all the city from enemies. Using delsin powers is really fun btw. 8/10.

This is no exception when it comes to Sucker Punch's latest title: "InFAMOUS: Second Son". Taking place 7 years after the events of "InFAMOUS 2's" Good Ending, "InFAMOUS: Second Son" introduces Delsin Rowe. A small town delinquent turned super powered bad ass after a freak incident activates his Conduit gene allowing him to copy other Conduits powers. The gameplay of "InFAMOUS: Second Son" is just as satisfying (and explosive) of the past two entries. Introducing 4 brand new powers smoke, neon, video, and concrete, "InFAMOUS: Second Son" allows players to have fun and experiment with all 4 powers, although they could be a bit more varied. Personally i could sit down for hours just exploring the city of Seattle and fighting off the D.U.P to liberate each district , slowly but surely loosing their clutch. Which brings me into the story of this game. To put it blunt, it could be better. Its not bad, not in the slightest. But it could be a little longer and more interesting. Maybe its just about how "InFAMOUS 2" had such a high staked and emotional story that kinda gave a sense of disappointment for some players when it comes to the story of "InFAMOUS: Second Son". Overall, "InFAMOUS: Second Son" is a fantastic game that every PS4 owner should have and leaves (most) fans excited for the next installment of "InFAMOUS".… Expand

Open world is very standard, even boring - activities in open world are very basic, repetitive and not interesting. The story is also very basic - you know who is your enemy in the beginning and with that knowledge you go through the whole game, gather new skills and then final battle is coming. So very straightforward. Characters are sort of empty-hollow characters, even main hero, even main enemy, allies are bad-written as well. Next thing to discuss is combat system - it's much better than story and characters but I didn't find it awesome - it's ok, not good, not terrible. I understand the complexity of implementing super-skills in open world but probably would be better to have less amount of skills and invest that saved time into several skill.

    So honestly the real score of this game is about 7.0. But as far as it is 7 years old and in 2014 I had scored it better so I've set 8.0.

    Btw one more plus of that game is that it is quite short - about 10 hours.    … Expand

    Very fun. I'd played the first Infamous and it was a good experience but not like with this game. The map is big but not enormous, so you can go from side to side really fast. The spells make you feel really powerful. The difficulty curve is really good but not perfect. Recommended.

    The writing is alright, the characters are somewhat charismatic, but its graphics, its soundtrack, its "choose-your-own-path" system, and its nice interaction with the Dualshock 4 are what make this game a must play for any PS4 owner.

    inFamous Second Son is a beautiful showcase of what the original PS4 is capable of.

    Going through the very detailed city of Seattle by acquiring different kind of powers, developing your character and abilities, resulted on a progression system that makes you keep going in a way that I enjoyed: without forcing you to do secondary activities because it delivers them just natural.
    The only flaw I found while playing was the different sides of the story depending on the few choices you make: the story in fact changes, the powers not that much. Besides that I really recommend inFamous Second Son if you are searching for an enjoyable and fun experience.    … Expand

    Начну с приятного. inFamous: Second Son одна из лучших игр стартовой линейки, которые когда-либо выходили!
    Вообще игра бомба. Не играл в предыдущие игры серии, из-за отсутствия, на тот момент, PS3. Так что знакомство начал именно с Second Son.

    Играть очень приятно. При том, как геймплейно, так и визуально. Игра очень красива, не смотря на "ранний" выход на PS4. Сейчас многие игры выглядят гораздо хуже.
    Боёвка, ну она оригинальная, для серии, и просто не надоедает до самого финала. В игре можно стрелять, прыгать, летать, телепортироваться и т.д.
    Сюжет мне тоже понравился, особенно если рассматривать его вместе с дополнением First Light. Повествование так же не линейно и от него зависит окончание всей игры.
    В игре запоминающиеся персонажи с очень хорошей лицевой анимацией. За них переживаешь, а это главное для атмосферной, сюжетной игры. Есть также и романтическая нить, но увидеть её можно только проходя игру определённым образом.
    Атмосфера, да она здесь есть, в игре, как я уже говорил, очень приятно находиться.
    Прокачка персонажа мне тоже очень понравилась. Новые способности получаешь по прохождении боссов.
    БОССЫ! Да в игре они есть! И они мне очень понравились. Единственное, что меня не порадовало, это то, что не дают поиграть в сюжет с последним полученным умением, его можно использовать только после окончания сюжета, в открытом мире. Кстати, об открытом мире. В нем всегда есть чем заняться, нет ощущения пустоты. Даже после прохождения основной истории.
    Прошел игру дважды с разными концовками. Единственное, что огорчило, ёлы палы этого мало! Мне хочется еще таких красивых, бесшабашных, весёлых, удобных, да просто офигенных игр, ещё, ещё, ещё!!! Очень хотелось бы продолжения, но если оно и выйдет то уже на PS5, а не на PS4. Есть схожая игра: Sunset Overdrive, но на других платформах.
    В общем, игра великолепная, тем более как эксклюзив PS4, обязательна в коллекции любого владельца консоли!    … Expand

    Красиво и со смыслом

    Сразу скажу - я не играл в предыдущие части франшизы, а потому у меня не было никаких ожиданий от этой игры, а потому могу оценить её честно. Визуально для 2014 года она выглядит классно, но не сказать, чтобы отлично - игра больше берёт своим стилем.

    Сразу скажу - я не играл в предыдущие части франшизы, а потому у меня не было никаких ожиданий от этой игры, а потому могу оценить её честно.

    Визуально для 2014 года она выглядит классно, но не сказать, чтобы отлично - игра больше берёт своим стилем. Цветастое безумие, творящееся на экране, совсем не надоедает, декорации выполнены красиво, но местами игре не хватает детализации и мелких объектов. Из плюсов ещё можно отметить возможность снять ограничение по частоте кадров, но на базовой и Slim-версии консоли стабильных 60 кадров получить не удастся, а сам флеймрейт будет довольно часто проседать до 30 к/с, так что я рекомендовал бы играть со включенным локом на 30 фпс. Владельцы Pro могут спокойно наслаждаться 60 к/с.

    Сюжет. Он незамысловат, но подан качественно. Главный герой игры по имени Делсин Роу случайно получает суперспособности и с тех пор его жизнь наполняется приключениями. В сюжете есть место как юмору, так и драме, философии и моральному росту персонажа. Отлично прописаны характеры героев. Есть возможность отыгрывать как героя, так и антигероя - это влияет на кат-сцены и на концовку игры, а также на отношение к протагонисту со стороны простых людей. В игре нет побочных квестов (если не считать одно дополнение) как таковых - только различные повторяющиеся активности, что отчасти минус. С другой стороны, ничто не отвлекает от центрального сюжета.

    Геймплей. Собственно, то, за что я и полюбил эту игру. Боевая система замечательная, система прокачки вариативна и зависит от выбранного игроком пути Героя или Отступника. Есть интересные боссфайты и хорошо обыгранные сюжетные миссии. В игре много побочных активностей, однако в рамках одного вида они мало отличаются друг от друга, да и мир к изучению совсем не располагает.

    Плюсы
    + Неплохая графика.
    + Динамичный и разнообразный геймплей.
    + Интересный сюжет.
    + Игра использует возможности Dualshok'а по максимуму.

    Минусы:
    - Проблемы с детализацией окружения.
    - Пустой открытый мир, который не интересно изучать.
    - Репетативные побочные активности.

    Моя оценка: 7.5 из 10 - хорошая игра, не шедевр, но и не "проходняк", как говорят многие. Добротная история с красивой картинкой и весёлым, бодрым геймплеем в пустоватом открытом Сиэтле.    … Expand

    Un gran juego de Superhéroes... ¿O Supervillanos?

    JUGABILIDAD:
    Second Son tiene muchas fallas, que veremos más adelante, pero la jugabilidad no es una de ellas. El juego es muy intenso, muy rápido y muy divertido. La variedad de elementos y poderes que podemos utilizar son muy entretenidos, el combate es bueno y muy inmediato.

    La historia es buena a secas, pero es demasiado corta, con pocos jefes y una batalla final algo decepcionante.
    No obstante las misiones extras son muy divertidas y le agregan mucha durabilidad al juego: destruir los puntos de control, destruir las cámaras de seguridad, encontrar y destruir las cámaras ocultas, encontrar y destruir los drones, encontrar a los espías encubiertos, liberar todo un distrito del DUP, atrapar a las bandas criminales, liberar a los sospechosos de las jaulas del DUP y, por supuesto, dejar nuestra marca en forma de grafitis.

    Todo lo anterior con un aprovechamiento asombroso de todas las funcionalidades del Dualshock4: six-axis, botón táctil, panel táctil, luz del control.

    GRÁFICOS:
    Visualmente el juego es bueno. Las cinemáticas son buenas, pero las expresiones faciales de los personajes no están bien logradas por lo que un par de cinemáticas que deberían ser bastante tristes no logran profundizar en el jugador.

    La narrativa y el estilo visual de Cómic de las mismas son estupendas.

    Lo que sí es horroroso es la iluminación. Es pésima, no importa si es de día o de noche, siempre hay algo demasiado iluminado en la pantalla que arruina la experiencia de juego. Morí varias veces porque no podía ver dónde estaba ni qué estaba haciendo.

    SONIDO:
    Nada especial, es probablemente el apartado más débil del juego.

    INNOVACIÓN:
    La balanza entre el bien y el mal es buena, no solo por las decisiones que puedes tomar a lo largo del juego (que son muy pocas) sino porque el simple hecho de lastimar a un civil por error afecta a esa balanza. Yo lo jugué como Héroe y me divertí mucho, pero pienso jugarlo como Villano para ver las diferencias en la trama.

    inFamous Second Son puede no ser el mejor juego a nivel técnico pero, por alguna extraña razón, es extremadamente divertido.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. InFamous Second Son, es el mejor juego que a sacado Sucker Punch, ¿por que? Empecemos por su apartado visual, el juego es genial en lo grafico y tecnico no me he encontrado con ningun Bug, ni nada por el estilo en ese apartado le doy un 10 de 10 recordemos que este fue de los primeros juegos de PS4 y aun asi nos dejo con un apartado visual increible
    segundo: Jugabilidad en este apartado no tiene nada que envidiar de otros juegos aunque sean mas actuales, los poderes ahora son mucho mas variados que en su precuela tenemos varios como: Concreto, Neón, Video y obviamente eo poder del Humo, estos poderes hacen que la exploracion por el mapa sean mucho menos tediosos. Un gran error que cometen varios juegos de mundo abierto es que tengas que viajar del punto A al punto B le prestes mas atencion al minimapa que al mismo entorno en si, en Second Son no ocurre esto ya que te diviertes con los poderes y es para mi de los pocos juegos que sus misiones secundarias son buenas, el sistema de combate esta mas pulido que sus antecesores Le doy un 10 de 10 tercero: Banda Sonora la banda sonora de este juego te dejara tarareando sus canciones, como por ejemplo la del final del juego, en este apartado le doy un 9.2 de 10
    Cuarto dificultad: la dificultad en normal y dificil esta bastante bien lograda pero pudo ser mejor el juego es facil muchas veces en este apartado le doy un 8.6 de 10

    Theres a lot to like here but I still preferred the original Infamous to this.I will say that Delsin is pretty likable for a hero and his powers are fun to mess around with but This game almost felt more like a tech demo for the PS4 than an actual game. Its surprisingly short only about half as long as the original game was. But for what it is, its a pleasant fun time.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I loved this game. The graphics, the super powers, and the story are just tops. Stop reading this review and go play it (and First Light) right now.

    Why I gave it 9/10 despite the above:

    1. I wish there was more to do after the last boss (if you haven't already cleared all the districts like I did);

    2. I think the difficulty spikes too much for certain bossed; and

    3. You get the fourth elemental power really late in the game ... like at the last boss.

    REAL SPOILERS BEGIN:

    Like it's predecessors, inFamous and inFamous 2, this is a game where you're dropped in a sandbox (or open world if you prefer) and have super powers to level up and bad guys to kill. You have to uncover the plot of some unscrupulous super villain.

    The characters are done well here too. Like Kessler, Augustine is of the mind that the ends justify the means and it works perfectly. Reggie is always protecting his brother, and I was sad when Reggie died even though I already knew he would. Fetch and Eugene even get mini-arcs of their own. It's great. Delsin's maturing throughout the game doesn't feel forced, but rather a natural response to his circumstances.

    As you go there are technically two enemy factions - the DUP and some drug dealers. I suppose there are also the police if you play on "evil karma", but I only did the good karma path. The drug dealers don't have much personality, but the DUP and their conduits are really good antagonists.

    I love that each encounter in this open world - aside from some story missions - can be done anyway you want. Lots of bad guys? Maybe just start from on top of a building and slam down. Or take out the cameras first.... or switch powers because maybe video is better here than smoke or neon.

    An improvement from inFamous and inFamous 2 is travelling and traversal. You can basically fly in this game if you level up and time your jumps. It makes getting around town - or running from enemies - really easy.

    The powers are also cool - you have 4 to choose from, smoke, neon, video and concrete. Each is unique and better for different things. I preferred neon to the rest, but that's just a preference. They all feel balanced.

    The only complaints I have are more like nitpicks:

    1. I have the habit of clearing out all available side missions and districts BEFORE taking on story missions. So when I got video - there was only like 5 missions to go. I didn't get to use concrete at all outside of the last mission because the game was done when I defeated Augustine.

    So I wish there was more to do for someone like me. I did download First Light and that has more of an end-game in the arena challenges, so I scratched that itch, just not with the main game.

    2. I didn't like being given concrete at the last boss and then having to master it on the fly. Last bosses should be the culmination of everything you learned, not just some new mechanic introduced that needs to be mastered immediately. I played the whole game on normal, but lowered the difficulty to easy for the last boss because of this weird difficulty spike.

    3. Further to #1 I didn't get to use concrete much because I literally got it at the end of the game - because of the way I play.

    But those are blips in what was otherwise I really fun experience.

    It makes me wonder why developers don't make more games like this one. It's 10-20 hours of quality, replayable with different karma/powers and feels complete.

    Ah... back when games weren't just grind fests trying to suck money out of your wallet.... Seriously in 2021 it's a breath of fresh air to finally play this and First Light (the DLC).

    Haven't tried this game yet? Like super powers? Like open-world?

    Buy this game and enjoy. :)    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. So the Infamous series for those unfamiliar, is a series of games revolving around a population of powerful people called "Bio-terrorists". And in the game Infamous second son, we play Delsin, a funny boy with a penchant for rebellion who one day discovers he can take the powers of those bio-terrorists. And you will have to choose whether you use the same powers for good or bad purposes. I will not do spoilers for the plot, because I will let you experience it for yourselves. The gameplay is very fun, the switching between powers is almost instantaneous, and it's very fun to travel the world with your powers everywhere. The world of Infamous second son is simply spectacular, everywhere in the world you will find illuminated signs in restaurants, chimneys, electronics stores and many other things that you can use to fill your power meter. In addition, you can do a lot of things in the world, such as finding DUP skimmers (which are an organization that tries to capture bio-terrorists), destroying DUP areas and freeing the citizens imprisoned there, and more. And on the PlayStation 5 the game can reach 4K resolution at 60 frames per second or 1080p resolution at 120 frames per second, which is just amazing.
    In conclusion, Infamous second son is an amazingly simple game, Sucker Punch managed to perfectly show the incredible leap between the PlayStation 3 and the PlayStation 4, and on the way give us one of the best games for the PlayStation 4.    … Expand

The visuals hold up amazingly well for a close-to-launch title on the PS4 but it also shows it’s age with the gimmicky controls like having to use the touch pad to absorb powers among other things like motion controls. They never really bothered me that much, but it’s still something that I could’ve went without. The story is pretty good too, I played it safe by being a Hero but I’d love to do a Evil playthrough someday since villains always get the coolest powers. It kinda bugged me how you only had 3 powers to play with for the whole game and only get the 4th after the final boss, it’s a pretty OP ability though so it made the post game a cakewalk. This game isn’t afraid to kick your teeth in at times though, especially at the beginning I was struggling a lot. But if you play smart, you’ll be rewarded, and that’s my favorite kind of difficulty. One that dances on the line of don’t be stupid and you won’t die stupid deaths. Overall, it’s a great exclusive to experience.… Expand
