inFamous: Second Son: A Screenshot Comparison Between Various Times of the Day

GearNuke: "inFamous: Second Son is truly a gorgeous open world game, unfortunately, it lacks any sort of dynamic day/night cycle. The game shifts its time of the day after some specific story missions, so while we can experience the different times of the day, we can't really fully enjoy them. We decided to see how the world of Seattle in inFamous: Second Son looked during various times of the day, and it also shows us how much work and effort has been gone in making Seattle a lively city during the various different times of the day."

Thanks to the lighting effects on the PS4, I almost want to say that everything looks better at night now. I mean, look at some of the lighting effects from Killzone or inFamous SS and everything done at night is gorgeous.

elninels3683d ago (Edited 3683d ago )

The neon at night is what gets me every time.

Edit: also I just noticed that delsin's clothes change color based upon karma.

PeaSFor3683d ago

pfffff, downgraded as hell!

/s

minimur123682d ago

the changes were alot more visible in the previous games, where the jeans were same style but different colour along with his skin tone difernt, in SS it's just the jacket logo

morganfell3682d ago (Edited 3682d ago )

Besides the jacket logo, certain crossover powers that work for both good and evil change colors as well.

And those screens are actually poor captures. I am not sure what they were using but those jpgs are degraded. Look at the shots Lukas_Japonicus posted the other day. Now those do look like the game.

You see the ramifications of the karma more in cutscenes, Delsin's face gets darker, his clothes change to darker colors if he's fully infamous, his tattoos are more demonic looking, and Ofcourse his powers take on the color scheme of red if he's evil and sometimes changes shape. And enemies disintegrate into particles the further up the Evil chain you are when you hit them.

Eddie201013682d ago

Even though these pictures look good the game actually looks even better. There are times when you look at the sun and it blinds realistically, also there is a hazy glow in early morning light, and the neon at night looks gorgeous. all this needs to be seen playing the game to fully appreciate how amazingly good the lighting is.

The lighting is just the tip of the Iceburgh. the amount of detail in the city is extremely high, lots of building detail, lots of foliage in the parks, lots of detail in indoor areas, the cars look good, lots of people on the steets along with DUP enemies. All of it without a noticeable low rez texture. The facial animations are amazing too, probably the best I have seen in a game.

Sucker punch did an amazing job making a next gen game

Somehow Sucker Punch managed to give us beautiful, stunning, and well-detailed graphics while keeping the gameplay over 30FPS and fun to play...

Man, if this is Second Son with the new hardware, i can only imagine how the sequel(s) will be once they learn more about the PS4 and use its full power.

Greatness...it's so good

MysticStrummer3682d ago

Best looking current gen game so far, and an open world at that.

Impressive stuff.

Sarcasm3682d ago

Agreed.

Everything is so clean, and the amount of effects and detail is absolutely mind blowing especially for an open world game.

And it's a year one title at that. Who knows what we'll see down the line. O_O

elninels3682d ago

Guys I really do enjoy this game, im on my evil play through. However I have to nitpick. The puddles are beautiful, but I can't step in them. I can step on them but not in them.

No_Limit3683d ago

The lighting is the main thing that stands out in this game for me. It is so beautiful and lifelike. I would like to see what Sucker Punch can do with the next version.

ramiuk13683d ago

the lighting,reflections,bloom etc are the best i ever seen in a game.
while those screen shots look nice ,in motion its gorgeous beyond belief .

running through city at dusk with neon is mindblowing,round or up and over the buildings and not a stutter,just perfectly smooth.

infact im gonna do it right now lol.

Niv3683d ago

sucker punch barely had time and the target hardware spec was very low. Imagine we'll have a future benchmark with another ps4 title

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_BLM107d ago

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

SDuck107d 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

OmegaSoldati107d ago

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

Profchaos107d ago (Edited 107d 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.

banger88139d ago

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

shinoff2183138d 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.

persona4chie137d ago

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