This game is going to be SO good. I really thought I was going to miss Cole a lot and I might. But this is such a step up in graphics and game play! Wow Next Gen on the PS4!

That and many 3rd party dev's are also using the DS4 if people haven't noticed ( Dice, Bungie, EA and Ubisoft ).

ajames3474330d ago

I agree. This is definitely one of the games to watch out for, both in gameplay and graphics.

And even though I'll miss Cole too I'm glad they're switching characters in order to keep things fresh.

Crazyglues4330d ago (Edited 4330d ago )

@ ajames347

I don't know I just can't get behind the new character, I don't like him at all... Cole to me was awesome, he fit the game so much, this new guy I don't like him at all..

This game looks amazing but I'm on the fence, I just don't like the new guy at all... I'm just not excited about playing as him at all..

-But what they are doing with the graphics really looks amazing, I wish them the best, huge infamous fan but I think i'm going to have to pass.

But really excited to see that the system has some amazing power, can't wait to see the Order, Mad Max, and the division and whatever Naughty Dog is working on.

@Crazyglues I see where you're coming from--this guy is definitely more cocky than Cole, which can be hit or miss.

Can't wait for those games either!

ABeastNamedTariq4330d ago

Oh yeah, I can't wait for this and The Order. Everything about this game looks fantastic. And dat touchpad! They're really doing interesting things with it, integrating it into gameplay and such.

mt4330d ago

can't imagine how the ugly cole from infamous 1 would looks like on ps4 ? Uglier with sexy graphics ? can't wait to see that happening

FamilyGuy4330d ago

Another article just came out about that, devs using the PS4 controller on their PC games as a preferred way to play. Sony really is turning things around this gen on all aspects.

InFamous SS is already a showcase for the PS4 and gives us a small hint at how great the unannounced big exclusives will turn out.

Lunarassassin4330d ago

The only thing i don't like so far is that you have to use L2 and R2 to aim and shoot.
I just find it so uncomfortable

Looks fantastic. Feb 2014 can't come soon enough.

I can only imagine what is possible with the multiplayer/online of this game.

I'm hoping UGC will be back for mission creation, and for multiplayer I hope to see a mode using the variety of powers that Delsin obtains over the course of the game. So lightning vs. smoke etc.

ajames3474330d ago

That would be very cool to see. I also can't wait to see other powers that could be used in multiplayer as well.

FamilyGuy4330d ago

When watching this video you see clips where he's using some sort of rock ability already. I probably missed them being shown off in another trailer but you can clearly see some rock formation come out of the ground in this video while Delsin is attacking on a building root top.

DigitalRaptor4330d ago (Edited 4330d ago )

That is one of the DUP soldiers that Delsin is fighting, using it to evade him. Not quite sure how that works, as the DUP are meant to be against people with powers. But it's similar to the enemies would evade your attacks in the previous game. Such as the ice conduits.

majiebeast4330d ago

Love how they chose light power instead of just electricity for Second Son its something you dont see much in super hero's except Dazzler from Xmen and Admiral Borsalino in One Piece.

RytGear4330d ago

Apparently they aren't calling it light exactly as you would get power anywhere from the sun. Most people are calling it Neon which I think fits much better.

Inception4330d ago

@majiebeast

Don't forget Captain Smoker "White Hunter" in One Piece. He can turn as a smoke just like Delsin.

Lord_Sloth4330d ago

Can't wait to play it! Just hope I can still use L1 and R1 to shoot.

Skate-AK4330d ago (Edited 4330d ago )

I'm sure it will have custom control schemes.

Unique PlayStation Games Where You Sweep Through Enemies Like They're Nothing

They really need to

Go off the evil ending off Second Son

Delsin absorbs all those powers

Revealed he’s the real Beast and John in Infamous 2 was just an anomaly created by timelines being messed with by Kessler.

Cole vs the Real Beast

gold_drake348d ago

quite honestly, i dont remember a whole lot about 2 amymore, but i absolutely hated the guy in second son haha.

chicken_in_the_corn347d ago

It would make more sense to go off the evil ending of 2 and the good ending g of SS where Cole is The Beast.

Cacabunga346d ago

Doesnt make any sense calling second son 2 as infamous 3..

OtterX347d ago

Ha, yea Delsin was obnoxious.

I wouldn't mind another new character, but somehow bring Cole into the story.

We can just pretend like Delsin never existed. :)

thejigisup347d ago

Everyone that age is obnoxious. It's been years and is like to think delsin has grown

neutralgamer1992347d ago

Until we wait for a potential new entry it would awesome to have infamous collection for PS5

RaidenBlack347d ago

Umm ... how about this?
First we get the Tushima sequel(coz its most rumored)
Then a new Resistance (need new PS SP FPS)
Then a totally new IP (new IPs are always interesting)
And then a new inFamous?

Pepsi_Man3000347d ago

resistance is insomniac I think

xHeavYx347d ago

Can we also get a complete remaster of InFamous 1 and 2?

fr0sty346d ago

Gimme a new Warhawk and MAG while we're at it.

DivineHand125347d ago

I had a great time with the second son. Never got to play the originals and hope they get remastered one day.

DazaMc347d ago

The graphics were amazing, I got the platinum on that one. Very good.

ChasterMies347d ago (Edited 347d ago )

If I had a choice between another Infamous game and another Spider-Man game, I choose Spider-Man. Sony should spend its resources on its winners.

Tacoboto347d ago (Edited 347d ago )

Infamous was such a winner its studio was given the freedom (after 3 titles + their expansions) to do a new IP with GoT, just like with Sly Cooper before infamous.

I'd welcome a 4th title even more than another Spider-Man, it'd be exciting what they could do with new powers fit for the hardware outside the limits of a licensed superhero game.

jznrpg347d ago

Spider-Man is guaranteed and is made by Insomniac so why not both as Sucker Punch would make Infamous.

How Does inFAMOUS Second Son Hold up 10 Years Later?

inFAMOUS Second Son was one of PS4's best exclusives, but does it hold up a decade later?

Deeeeznuuuts536d ago

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_BLM536d ago

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

SDuck536d 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

OmegaSoldati536d ago

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

jznrpg347d ago

@OmegaSoldati I’ve had a few of the highest end PC’s and they’re cool for about a year then they aren’t the highest end PC anymore and not as cool. It’s way overrated imo.

Profchaos536d ago (Edited 536d 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
