Founded in 1997, Sucker Punch Productions began life as a Nintendo 64 supporter, with Rocket: Robot on Wheels , released in 1999. This game would set conventions for Sucker Punch to adapt in the future, featuring a protagonist that would gain new abilities as the player progressed within one of the...

The graphics are a great advert for the power of the PlayStation 4, but in terms of gameplay and story this hasn’t moved on at all from the previous generation.

Amazing graphics and the core combat is enjoyable and pacy, with a wide range of customisable abilities – even if a lot of them are very similar in function.

Underwritten story where the moral decisions have no weight in terms of both characters and gameplay. Repetitive structure and enemies, as well as boring side quests and boss battles.

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.

Can the popular franchise make a great debut on PS4?

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.

InFamous has always been an empowering series, allowing you to wreak havoc with your electricity based powers, but InFamous: Second Son takes this further still with new hero Delsin Rowe, who, with his full capabilities, makes previous protagonist Cole McGrath look weak in comparison, and this leap...

A lot of folks were looking at Infamous Second Son as the bellwether of what this generation would hold. It doesn't end up disappointing, combining outstanding visuals with refined gameplay that is a welcome visitor early in this generation.
