May 27, 2014Graphics: 8.5 Sound: 8.0 Gameplay: 7.8 Fun/Story: 7.8
The first truly next gen graphics with an original art touch. Sunset, rain and wind effects are very good. A little disappointing story. -
May 26, 2014Great game. lots of fun. I think it would have deserved a 9 if the story was a little stronger, but overall it's a just a fantastically fun game. Rent it for a weekend and you will be very happy

May 29, 2015While not a game changer, inFamous second son in a fantastic game. It's like an X-men game without being a Marvel product. An entertaining story with some great gameplay but some will find the missions repetitive. I put off buying this for a while, it really didn't attract me but after putting some time in with inFamous first light after getting it free on ps plus I was hooked. Highly recommend

Jul 17, 2014Probably the most beautiful game out there, not just due to resolution but especially due to graphical style! The combat mechanics is great, the characters are ok, the open world in it is mediocre! For PS4 it is a must own!

Jul 29, 2014This game does a great job with retaining the feel of inFamous with a good story and nice wide, open spaces. My main gripe with it is that you really don't feel engaged with the enemies (all one type with little variance), and perhaps they should have done more with fewer powers than cram as many different powers into the game as possible. Still a LOT of fun!

Aug 31, 2014This game was super fun. The graphics was superb. The story was kind of thin, but it's not bad at all. The main character is cool. The game was kind of short, and I had already won it two times, one on normal and one on hard difficulty, and got the platinum trophy in the first weekend. After I got the platinum trophy, the game wasn't that fun anymore. But it was a fantastic fun experience.

Oct 7, 2017This is a good game that is nowhere near original in what it does. It's probably the best game on the system but it's not good enough to sell the system outright. There's alot to love here with the lovely graphics and the wonderful acting done by guys like Troy Baker, who does a stellar job as the main character Delsin Rowe. However this game just really suffers from the "same old, same

Oct 1, 2014Beyond the visual experience, Infamous Second Son, offers interesting and likable characters that makes for an enjoyable gaming experience. Sucker Punch also did a great job at building up a Villain. After completing 2 playthroughs the game may become boring and repetitive. Worth a buy.

Oct 22, 2014Graphics are amazing and its open world, wow.
New powers are bingo, story is bad and the fight is kinda boring.
Much better than Infamous 2 but I would like to be able to drive a car and swim -
Mar 14, 2015Story is pretty good, and present different perspectives (Bad/Good). Combat is fun and powers feels amazing. Game is short (if you play once), but i enjoy every second of it.

Oct 12, 2014This is a really fun game, the gameplay is really entertaining and agile, this is a game that is also replayable and the graphics are amazing. nice game overall

Nov 8, 2014a solid good game. very fun and definitely worth the price. great parkour mechanics and diverse powers throught the story make this game really fun. especially when me and a mate play through the campaign together with pizza

Nov 3, 2014The gameplay in this game is one of a kind, the story is pretty good, characters feel alive, the graphics are outstanding. The combat never gets boring, AI is pretty good, and the karma mechanic is cool. If you own a PS4, get this game.

Nov 18, 2014This inFamous game shows off the pro's and the con's of all video games. It wasn't as good as I expected it to be but still held on the the fun ride that the earlier games started.

Dec 11, 2014My first PS4 game. It has Good story, variable abilities and nice graphics. Easy to be addicted to finish all side missions to drag down the occupy percentages. You have morality choices to make to gain different abilities. It's worth the money.

Apr 26, 2015This is the game thats beats triple-A titles like Call of Duty and Assassin's Creed. inFamous: Second Son is a game all PS4 owners should get. A beautifully designed American town, crisp and precise controls and a mixture of challenging and easy stages, this is the game the PS4 deserves along side The Last of Us Remastered (2014) and No Man's Sky (December 2015)

Jan 25, 2015Love game where they make you feel so powerful. This game is very much like infamous 1 and 2 but brings a new character, new setting, and new/more powers. The next gen graphics goes to the limit with this game and makes it feel just that much better.
-
May 18, 2018Pretty fun game with a touching story at the end. Would play it again as an evil character some time in the future.

May 20, 2016I thought the story was weak but other than that I thought it was a good game. It looks good and plays great. Enemies are very frustrating however even on normal, I sometimes get barraged by projectiles and don't have time to get up and recover which results in me dying. But I digress, I'd give this game a VERY high 7 or a low 8.

Apr 3, 2016This game has awesome graphics, great gameplay, and offers a decent story and makes a good game by itself, yet the game gets pulled down by repetitive missions, and a kinda short story if you go all story.

May 23, 2016Un buen juego, muy buena duración y rejugable, es entretenido y los graficos son buenos. Lo malo es la historia, la cual no es mal, pero es bastante simple, podría ser mejor.

Nov 20, 2020Sin duda de los juegos más infravalorados de esta generación, es de lo más divertido que puedes jugar, es muy bueno en todo lo que pretende lograr, si no jugaste los Infamous anteriores no te preocupes, la relación es mínima

Jan 29, 2017This game could be repetitive sometimes and has its bad points but its a fun game and has a good (not excellent, just good) story to tell, i liked the sotry, gameplay and graphics. Better buy it if you find it in a low price.

Oct 14, 2016infamous second son is one of the greatest games i have ever played on the ps4. I love the infamous series they are pretty awesome games. the games game tag is that being a hero is optional. i would say the greatest super-powered superhero games. And i recommend it for those that have a ps3 or a ps4

Jun 17, 2020InFamous: Second Son é um excelente hacknslash e foi um ótimo jogo para o começo da geração do PS4, entretanto tem mais potencial do que um jogo de início da geração que passa a impressão de poder ter muito mais a se fazer no jogo.
-
Jan 24, 2018Absolutely great, stunning made for the PS4, a wonderful story building world and characters.
-
May 22, 2019Infamous Second Son doesn't try to hide the fact that it was clearly meant as a launch title meant to show off the new things a PS4 can do, but that didn't stop it from being a great game.

Feb 25, 2018A great game with nice characters and many fun things to do.
The new powers are amazing and beautiful to watch... but lack the consistency of Cole's electric tricks. -
Apr 28, 2018A great launch title! This game shows what the PS4 could really do during its early stage. Fantastic graphics and strong characters!
-
Apr 20, 2018Generic 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.

Sep 5, 2018This game is so fun, and it is the perfect game to display that the PS4 can be enjoyed by all ages

May 24, 2018es diferente alas otras entregas, pero el cambio es para bien, buenos graficos, un mundo abierto medianamente grande y bien elaborado y la historia es buena .
-
Jun 15, 2018Infamous second son es un videojuego con un gameplay muy fluido, la historia se me hizo latera con el pasar de la aventura, algo que calificaria como positivo es las desiciones que te hacen elegir entre dos caminos. para cualquier poseedor de una ps4 le recomiendo pasarse este juego

Jun 4, 2022A solid experience on a super hero / vigilante type game. Doesn't overstay it's welcome. A good time overall.
-
Dec 28, 2018Very 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.

Dec 29, 2018Игра шидевр! Просто лучшая игра всех времён и народов. Какая графика, какой графон!

Feb 19, 2019The 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. -
Jan 22, 2019Wasn't expecting anything from this game. Ended up completing it 100%. Hope it will get sequel one day.

Dec 1, 2020The graphics are really nice. A lot of powers to use. Flying and jumping around the city is fun. Story is just not bad.

Mar 4, 2020Game is good. But it didn't really touched me. Action is really good and power skills looks really beauty. So, 8 out of 10.

Nov 26, 2021The gameplay and characters were so fun and interesting I just wish we knew more about them and the world they live in. This games sets itself up for a franchise that is sadly (over 7 years later) never capitalized on. It was even more fun than the original. Hopefully one day they pick it back up and continue to build on this character.

Oct 8, 2020I liked the game. It was fun and enjoyable to play. I can't say that the story really hooked me. But playing was not boring and the main character did not irritate me.
Overall a good game. I think if I had played it in 2014, I would have been much more impressed. -

CD-ActionJun 28, 2014It definitely isn’t one of those games you talk about years after its release, but it showcases PS4’s capabilities well and in contrast to Killzone: Shadow Fall also does something else – guarantees fun from the beginning till the end. [CD-Action 05/2014, p.58]
