Game reviews are confusing to me at times. IGN gave Infamous 2 a 9/10. I can say without a doubt that Infamous 2 deserved that score. Great game. One of my favorites for PS3. But, Infamous Second Son is in a league far above Infamous 2. The story so far (I'm 7 hours in) is at least as good as Infamous 2. Technically, the best game I've ever played (I'm not a PC gamer). And IGN gave this game an 8.7/10. Still a great score, but lower than the weaker Infamous 2. Don't understand it. Maybe they had different reviewers. If Infamous 2 was a 9/10, then Second Son getting a 9.5 sounds right.

Opinions are different from person to person, and that includes reviewers. Where you see a 9.5 near perfect game I played it at my boyz house today and could see some bad spots. The ai was pretty poor, the game got repetitive pretty quick, and it just didn't really add anything new. Where you see an 8.7 too low I see it too high. That's just how these things work.

Well of course these are opinions. That's why I usually don't let reviews impact my purchasing decisions. But there aren't many people that would argue that Infamous 2 isn't as good as Second Son. Not sure if you've actually played the games, but I played all 3, and Second Son is CLEARLY the best. And it got a lower score from IGN than its predecesor.

My opinion is, games are getting lower scores because the game doesn't contain things people may have hoped for, instead of reviewing it for what it is. For instance, you read alot of comments now saying they didn't do anything new. Well, if they have a winning formula, why reinvent the game just because we have new consoles? Many would look at the Infamous 2 score and think it's a better game. Although it's a great game, it's clearly not better.

100%, locked 60fps and still look great all these years later, same with the expansion, definitely worth a look if people haven't played it yet, not the best games ever made but a good experience, hopefully a new infamous gets released

KwietStorm_BLM103d ago

Never was my favorite infamous, but it was definitely a graphics showcase early on PS4. Still plays well with the unlocked frame rate.

SDuck103d ago

Still remember getting hyped about this game nearing release. Funny because I never even got a PS4. Jumped from PS3 to PC so I never played it ahahaha

OmegaSoldati103d ago

Its a good game. But thats it. Congratulations you made the best choice. I dream to have a great PC one day.

Profchaos103d ago (Edited 103d ago )

Graphically It's a absolutely stunning game that still holds up today.

Didn't have all that much depth to it forcing you to play though twice for a platinum trophy a good and bad run it was a little disappointing how similar those were Delsin would be like I'm not doing that for you in a cutscene but the cutscene would play out and force you to do it anyway just as you would of in a good run

I did like the story however it got a lot of complaints back in the day people hated playing as Delsin instead of cole despite Coles story being wrapped up.

Overall though the map wasn't overly saturated with useless points of interest there was some collectibles and things to find but nothing compared to a Ubisoft game.

I think it was a good game if a little hollow I've played it through around 4 times now since it's so short.

Also it's DLC was great a full story expansion

I've played 15, and I wouldn't consider any of those underrated TBH. Some of them are pretty high rated.

banger88135d ago

That's amazing, Gamingbolt actually put all 15 games on the same page.

shinoff2183134d ago

I. Not seeing anything on that list underrated. I never played concrete genie, the ASTRO vr,and one other but I forgot the name already. Nothing on there was underrated at all imo.

persona4chie134d ago

There’s only 4 of those games I never played, and no most of those aren’t underrated.
