There is an endgame but it doesn't offer much especially as the end game activities are mostly available throughout the story if you're good enough. After the story it offers the activities you didn't complete in the open world such as locate, hunt and discover objectives as well as district showdowns and the 'Paper Trail' addition that involves a lot of complicated internet scrolling. However once you've 100% the events and you have the (fairly easy) platinum trophy there are raids in which a group of enemy's crowd together and you need to take them down, this just repeats, not many games offer a life beyond 100% but the lack of multiplayer does shorten the lifespan of this one. The story/s are really quite good but are probably only 10 hours most in length, it's a good game to get if you're just starting life on PS4 but if you like playing with friends and online competitive it obviously can't provide.… Expand

    A spectacular game. Really shows of the power of the PS4. Gorgeous graphics, with very fluid controls. The game does deliver on the premise of giving the user a lot of power. However, a challenging set of enemies keeps the gameplay interesting. There are a few nice ways to use the Dualshock 4's touchpad, which is a pleasant change from other games.

    Everything about Infamous: Second Son just screams cool - from the urban alt-punk Seattle aesthetic, to the badass Native American protagonist Delsin Rowe. Whether you decide to take Delsin down the path to becoming a True Hero or pave the streets with chaos and blood as you become Infamous, it’s going to be a hell of a ride.

    I cannot give this game enough praise. Second Son takes everything that was great about the franchise thus far and bumps it up a notch, from visuals, to narrative, to characterization. Tight controls give you easy access to all of Delsin’s abilities, and, man, he has a lot of them. There are plenty of PS4 performance gimmicks abound – it’s easy to tell this was in the early days of the console’s lifecycle. Interactions with the environment like opening doors require swiping across the touchpad but it works surprisingly well.

    Picking up a few years after Cole’s exploits in the first two games, you play as conduit Delsin Rowe during a government takeover over Seattle. Moving from one story mission to the next is much the same as it was in previous titles, but while parkouring to your next destination there is plenty going on the streets of Seattle to distract you, mainly the DUP (Department of Unified Protection) who is oppressing the people of Seattle and your fellow conduits. Each “zone” of Seattle is under their control and by disrupting their activities you can push them out of sections of the city, which allow you more freedom of movement and the establishment of fast travel points.

    All of these actions, depending on how they are executed, will affect your Karma and help you progress down the path of good or evil. The Karma system even affects your powers and facilitates your progress down either of those roads by granting Delsin abilities that will either pacify or obliterate your opponents.
    The cast of characters is varied, but a bit cliché. The other conduits you recruit along the way do not get fleshed out as much as I would like, but it’s a great moment in the game when you see them all coming together to fight the powers that be.

    Infamous Second Son is just a great game, and among my top PS4 picks. Good and Evil paths and higher difficulties give you plenty of reasons to come back, as well as the always present lure of more trophies. If you were like me and still hadn’t picked up this PS4 exclusive, gogogogogogo.

    Pros:
    ---Delsin Rowe is awash with personality
    ---Gameplay is tight
    ---Visuals are stunning for an early game on the hardware
    Cons:
    --- Could have used more story related missions    … Expand

    This 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.

    inFamous: Second Son is an amazing game. It was one of the first titles I grabbed for my new PS4 and I couldn't have been happier with it. Fun open world, with a lot to do. Great story. The customization of superpowers adds something special to this game, and I loved the protagonist of this game. Definitely worth your time!

    inFamous Second Son's Delsin split opinions at launch. Some were put off by his arrogance, whilst others - myself included - enjoyed his distinct personality. Either way, the ever-present Troy Baker does a fantastic job of bringing to life our hero (or villain) who avoids joining the long list of predictable video game protagonists. Crafting a more memorable lead character was necessaryinFamous Second Son's Delsin split opinions at launch. Some were put off by his arrogance, whilst others - myself included - enjoyed his distinct personality. Either way, the ever-present Troy Baker does a fantastic job of bringing to life our hero (or villain) who avoids joining the long list of predictable video game protagonists. Crafting a more memorable lead character was necessary for the inFamous franchise, given the forgettable Cole McGrath of the series' previous outings.

    As for the game itself, the structure follows a sort of procedural upgrade system. For the most part, the story simply directs you to new upgrades and powers whilst introducing some memorable characters along the way. Despite this seemingly repetitive choice of game design, the new abilities - whilst mostly being alterations on their original counterparts - always just about do enough to keep things fresh. Switching between them and upgrading them on your own accord gives a great sense of freedom to play the game mostly how you want to within the preset constructions. In this respect, collecting blast shards is essential if you want to improve your powers, and so scavenging collectibles actually has a meaning and doesn't just act as a factor of longevity as it does in most games of this ilk.

    All that said, I did initially have qualms with the core combat system. At first I couldn't get on with the reticle; it felt like I couldn't be as precise as I would have liked with my long-range powers, but over time I developed a knowhow and became accustomed with the multiple variants on the numerous combat options. In the end, the array of choices at your disposal when in combat are what keep said mechanic from growing stale.

    The story is predictable in places and you'll occasionally roll your eyes at the cringy script, but for the most part it keeps you intrigued and you'll grow to see Delsin as a more human character at important plot points during the tale, nicely contrasting with his otherwise 'couldn't care less' attitude toward life. What's more, whilst most games would settle for a single storyline, inFamous Second Son - much like the inFamous games that came before - allows you to play as a hero or a villain and the publics perspective of you will alter respectively. This feature could have been invested in a bit more as in the grand scheme of things it doesn't really matter what your peers think of you - they won't inflict any real impact on you either way, but it is a nice idea if not one that has been fully realised yet after three games in the series.

    Alas, the point I was getting around to is that, having completed the game as a Hero, the game has provided me with an incentive to go back through it again as a Villain; to see how certain scenes would play out if I had made different choices, and developers Sucker Punch ought to be commended for that somewhat unique approach to game design.

    They might also be commended for the handful of taxing boss battles that take place in the game. Sure, they often take on a classic boss battle approach i.e. the boss performs the same moves in a routine and you have to work out how to exploit that, so some would not be too psyched about this element of the game and I can sympathise with that. Personally however, I usually felt that the bosses themselves provided enough motive to want to take them down, meanwhile the aforementioned varied combat system did enough to keep me mixing things up and testing new approaches. Regardless, the bass battles are unlikely to be one size fits all in terms of preference, but given the rest of the game's consistent quality, I think most players will be able to overlook that.

    All in all, inFamous Second Son is an enjoyable romp that provides some unexpected twists, meaning it just about stands out in the crowded sandbox genre. Lacklustre side missions offer no real incentive to return to the game and the combat can take time to get to grips with, but aside from that Second Son offers a beautiful take on Detroit with a bizarre fiction and refreshing gameplay mechanics that keeps you entertained from start to finish, if not fully enthralled.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. inFamous: Second Son is a superhero action game which is somewhat let down by some design choices and the fact that it was essentially a launch title for the PS4.

    Story: it is a sequel to the previous 2 games, but not a direct one, as Cole (RIP) has been replaced by Delsin Rowe, who is a far more likeable character, a young man with a passion for life (and his powers). Delsin is a mutant (or, in inFamous language, a Conduit) who can copy the power of other mutants by touching them. Delsin's brother Reggie is the usual big brother who worries about his young brother, and Augustine (the main antagonist) is a mutant who wants to protect mutants from humans by... arresting (!) and imprisoning (!) them. The story isn't anything great or original, but it is good enough (and short, too), with messages about Big Brother, racism and family. As with previous games, the player can make choices (good karma and bad karma) in crucial moments in the story, but it's nothing too different between good karma and bad karma, so no Mass Effect or Dragon Age branching dialogue/choices here.

    Gameplay: Delsin has access to 4 different powers smoke, neon, video (my favorite) and concrete (whereas Cole only had access to electricity). Each power is somewhat different, but 90% of the move set is the same across all of them. Smoke is more of an all-around power, neon is about speed and Max-Payne-style slow-motion aiming, video lets you fly and summon angels, and concrete is more about brute force (but you gain it at the very end, and don't have enough time to practice and enjoy it). The game is structured around missions in an open world, the map is divided into areas (districts), and features both story missions and side ones (which are the same for every district, like finding a secret agent or shooting hidden cameras). Your aim is to complete the story, and drive the DUP (some kind of Police) out of every district of the city by doing side missions. When you power up Delsing (which is done by collecting shards across the map), you will enjoy traversing the city in super ways! Also, your actions determine your karma (good or bad) and unlock different perks for your powers.

    Not everything is great, though. As I said, it is essentially a launch title, and the game suffers a bit as developers Sucker Punch had to ready the game in a short time and optimise it. There are no game breaking glitches or bugs (like Assassin's Creed Unity for example), but gameplay is somewhat more limited than in inFamous 1/2. Cole had more moves at his disposal, and the map was bigger (I 'd say about 2 times bigger), and that reflects the time the game lasts (I beat the game and all side missions in around 8-10 hours, in contrast with the 20 hours it took me to beat both previous games).

    Graphics: the game is simply beautiful and colorful, in contrast to previous inFamous games which were too dark for my taste. The lighting model is awesome. Character models are top quality, especially in cut-scenes, and motion/performance capture is fantastic. It runs at 30-40 fps, but you can lock it to 30 fps and experience no judder in a 60 Hz TV. Finally, you can freely pause the game with L3 and open up Photo Mode, which lets you position the camera as you please and take screenshots (which you can then transfer to a PC and do whatever you want with them).

    Sound: dialogue and special effects are great. The soundtrack is meh.

    All in all, inFamous: Second Son is the best superhero game there is. Buy it and enjoy it. And if you want more, there is the stand alone (no need to own inFamous: Second Son) downloadable inFamous: First Light which stars another character, Fetch, with her neon power.    … Expand

    The 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.

    It 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]

    Fun romp, beautifully rendered and executed. Fantastic superpowers make up for the lack of depth. [Issue#241]

    inFamous: Second Son is not a bad sandbox game at all! Serves as an interlude while waiting the heavy hitters to arrive. [Apr 2014]
