Plenty of game freedom – Graphics bring the world to life – Lots of unique and powerful skills

Some repetitive mission design – Bland story direction

Some brutal take dows including that of innocent people inculde shoving giant swords through peoples body's causing some blood players can explode enemys and humans by shooting them in the head and exploding them with a few red blood efects very strong drug use is depicted and a lot of the...

Is this the game that PS4 owners have been crying out for Possibly. This loose sequel to inFamous 2 , developed by Sucker Punch Productions and exclusive to Sony's next-gen console, is a graphical tour de force that makes the most of the processing power on offer, painting a gorgeous, spookily-lit...

Efforts to move the series forward centre more on narrative and characterisation than gameplay, but the strength of Delsin and Reggie's relationship makes it work. Even though the final package feels like a tweak rather than generational improvement, it's a hell of a lot of fun, and that can't...

Let's get the visuals out of the way. Second Son is a beautiful game. From the lighting, to the atmosphere and the particle effects - every tiny bit of this game looks great and will easily become a benchmark against which future PlayStation 4 games are measured.

Incredible audio design and implementation; Stunning visuals and animations; Delsin Rowe; Delsin and Reggie's relationship; Solidarity and meticulous detail of the complete game

The broader story is very simple; Combat doesn't require much strategy and can seem repetitive towards the end; Details in the city can be overlooked if you only focus on objectives

An enjoyable open-world brawl, but it's neither truly next-gen, nor is it greater than the sum of its parts

There is a lot to love about inFamous: Second Son . It features the best storyline in the series so far, it has an interesting and diverse cast of characters and the powers are genuinely amazing to use in almost any situation.

Famously fun, but misses the mark on weak good vs evil morality Infamous: Second Son is an important game for the PS4. It's effectively the first exclusive title to come out for the system post-launch.

Sucker Punch’s first game on the PS4 is filled with a lot of fun moments even though the story itself is a little on the light side.

Second Son looks incredible on the PS4 – so far I think it's one of the best games available to date. I guess I really started paying attention when one of the older characters had a close up and you could see the wrinkles on her face and it just looked so natural – then they go and contrast the realism with the new bright and shiny powers, plenty of upgrades and side missions, and a fairly decent story. My only complaints, without giving too much away, are that the scope of the moves is very limited, there are about five different special moves that just have a different look as you change your powers – and though the story is exciting at times and picks up towards the end, the main character Delsin is a bit bland, and they just kind of throw him into the thick of it without a strong backstory and the trope of helping a woman. That aside I still played it until the end and got a lot of time and enjoyment out of it, and you can always play it again and choose to be evil instead of good, with some pivotal points in the game put in your hands to decide.
