Joystiq - Infamous: second son review; thank you for smoking

Second Son is polished and refined enough to make previous series entries feel dated in comparison. It represents a great leap forward both in terms of gameplay and in graphical fidelity,

9/10?! There is a trend appearing here... :D

Joystiq is truthfully the only website's reviews I take seriously.

SpiralTear3709d ago (Edited 3709d ago )

They're not my only source, but I really like the way they're written. The reviewers have great ways of writing; it reads less mechanically and more creatively, while still offering a solid, legitimate critique of the game.

fonger083709d ago

For the most they have the same tastes as I do. I don't use these "reviews" or metacritic scores to make my decision on a game purchase or not. With the influx of info we get on games months (even years) before a game is released, definitely goes a long way in showing what the final game will typically be like. It's when the 9s and 10s start showing up, that I normally look at a game as being a Day 1 vs waiting a month or two to maybe get it used.

Infamous ss is definitely a great game, I already put in a few hours in it and I definitely enjoy it so far. A solid 8 to 9 game. Sucker punch are a talented developer

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_BLM124d ago

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

SDuck124d 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

OmegaSoldati123d ago

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

Profchaos124d ago (Edited 124d 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.

banger88155d ago

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

shinoff2183154d 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.

persona4chie154d ago

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