Sorry, but U need to do a lot more work on your review. 7 for graphics? That's just not possible. There is almost no content, how is this a review?

reznik_zerosum4734d ago

this game is 7.5 overall,gamespot review was best for this game....first one was way better

Pintheshadows4734d ago

Play it first because..............that....j ust play 2 first before fabricating.

Jay_miz4734d ago

It's my first try!

Remember it's a scale of 1 to 10 , not everything is worthy of 8 or 9 , do you think these graphics compare to heavy rain or other 9 or 10 worthy games? I don't think so

ElDorado4734d ago (Edited 4734d ago )

I'm just saying you need to do more work on your review. I'm not attacking you or anything. Remember this is a openworld game so it's impressive to have this level of graphics. You tell me do you know a sandbox game on CONSOLES that has the level of graphics that inFamous 2 has? The animations in Heavy Rain were impressive indeed, but inFamous 2 has the better graphics overall environments etc.

Jay_miz4734d ago

I suppose, but even open world the game isn't that big, it's not grand theft auto not that we expected it, but games like mafia 2 have bigger worlds and better graphics

gta_manic4734d ago

I think you should put in context the graphics and what is on screen(npc,object.ect) Mafia 2 had good graphics with a big map but a very hollow one to me.

news4geeks4734d ago

mafia2, gta4, all assassins creed's and red dead redemption all have better graphics than infamous2. The review is spot on. A 7 in graphics is fair. Perhaps could score higher on art style.

@jay_miz - I noticed the score is now 8/10 for graphics. You shouldn't feel pressured into scoring it higher because a bunch of ps fanboys think it should.

nopunctuation4734d ago (Edited 4734d ago )

You see this is the trap that even professional reviewers seem to fall into these days. You cant compare this to Heavy Rain; You cant even compare it to similar open world games. Its not a contest between games that determines the score. You are scoring the game based on a competition within itself. You need to ask yourself "Is this game doing everything it can to be the best? Is it pushing its own limits and going the extra mile to impress?" You also need to consider its limits because different genres of games will display higher limits than others. Free Roam games tend to have lesser graphics but that can be forgiven because its harder to cram 20 square miles into one game than it is to cram 1 mile of GT5 track and crank up the graphics.

But yeah tl;dr:Dont compare to other games. Look at how far the game is pushing itself and if it is going the extra mile, give it a good score. Your score is good for this game overall but some areas of critique are iffy to say the least.

Tdmd4734d ago (Edited 4734d ago )

Are you really compairing InFamous 2 and Heavy Rain graphics?! Come on, mate... one of those is an open world sandbox.

EDIT: @news4geeks,
GTA4 have better graphics than inFamous 2?! Uh, right...
(troll alert!)

Pintheshadows4734d ago

Why does eveyone have a hard on for Heavy Rain graphics? They were ok but not upper echelon comparison worthy.

Also inFamous 2 is a sandbox where Mafia 2 was a bucket of sand.

inFamous 2 looks better than RDR as well. Again another game that looks nice but after 50 hours of play you start to notice issues.

I'm not really directing this at anyone but this game for a huge sandbox is a 9 in the graphics department. Especially when compared to its rivals.

ElDorado4734d ago

Come on man. You've got to be kidding me. Mafia 2 does NOT i repeat does not have the same graphics or better graphics than inFamous 2. Mafia 2 on PC looks better, but on consoles it's no contest really.

xYLeinen4734d ago

Both of you are trying to objectify your SUBJECTIVE opinion. Kinda funny..

Fans of the action-adventure franchise have been eagerly awaiting news of a potential sequel to one of the best games on the PS4.

Alexious374d ago

I want it too. Make it co-op as well.

-Foxtrot373d ago

Yeah they had a lightning bolt in the shape of a question mark at the end of Infamous 2

They always went off the good ending for Cole so I think for Delsin it should be the bad ending

What he did in the bad ending, absorbing everyone’s powers, seemed like he was going to turn into something powerful.

Makes you feel like he could have been the real Beast and John was just an anomaly because of them messing with time

Sets up a Cole vs Delsin showdown

potatoseal373d ago

How would fans feel about a reboot? You know to bring a new audience in? Not a good idea? Good idea?

anast372d ago

Not a god idea. They let it sit for too long and the game hasn't been strong enough to carry itself all these years. There is so much other stuff out there right now.

masterfox373d ago

Second Son was released in 2014 was an amazing game visually and gameplay wise, sometimes I play it again on the PS5 and seeing it run at 60 fps is something to behold(yes an almost 10 year old game), if you haven't done that on your PS5 try it you won't be disappointed, pure eye candy, a PS5 exclusive of Infamous would be amazing no doubt.

gold_drake373d ago

meh, i want Cole to come back.

or maybe a reboot. with cole.

Older PlayStation games that we'd love to see on the PlayStation 5

From Xfire: "For a company with a three-decade-long history in gaming, Sony has done a crappy job at preserving its legacy. "

Flawlessmic764d ago (Edited 764d ago )

All the mgs games, all the ape escapes, silent hill 1-4, croc 1 and 2, legend of dragoon, tekken 3,tenshu, bushido blade, vagrant story, okami, ico, crash bash, gt4.

Thats just off the top of my head that i would play immediately, still so many more though that id love.

Welshy763d ago

MGS, Silent Hill etc are no brainers, but you earned my thumbs up for our boi Croc. I talk about him all the time, it's an honour to find another man of culture.

Flawlessmic763d ago (Edited 763d ago )

Hahaha yea was one of my very first games i owned on ps1 as a child, great memories!!

Love to hear there other people out there that enjoyed the gem of a game that is croc 👌

RedDevils763d ago (Edited 763d ago )

Okami has HD version already. I want those Sly games though since PS3 and vita had it.

Flawlessmic763d ago

Yea sly would be cool, i never got into those so would be a good opportunity for me to do so.

But yea theres so many games in sony catalogue we coukd be here all day listing titles.

Hopefully we all get the ganes we are hoping for.

outsider1624764d ago

Tenchu 1 and 2
Socom 1 and 2
MGS 1-3
MGS4
ICO

seanpitt23764d ago

RDR2 for me they can boost that up to 60fps with better graphic settings than last gen

Luc20764d ago

Folklore. It was such a unique and beautiful game. Great soundtrack. I still have my PS3 copy

The_Hooligan763d ago

YES please! Also I would love to see Warhawk come back. Such an awesome game.

moriarty1889764d ago

The Resistance and a killzone series for me.

Bigman4k764d ago (Edited 764d ago )

Infamous 1 & 2 probably will get remaster for PS5/4 at some point as for the others in that article idk

If the PC can emulate the PS3, then for sure the PS5 would be able to do same. but dose Sony want it?

Mr Logic1426d ago

If there was money in it, then Sony would do it. People can bitch and moan all they want, but even if every person on this site used BC, that would still be a tiny fraction of gamers. Almost nobody really uses BC.

DethWish1426d ago (Edited 1426d ago )

I think there would be money if they made PS3 games downloadable through PSNow and added a bunch more.
Edit: I would get it if MGS4 was available

Mr Logic1426d ago

@DethWish

That would be an emulator. You're not making any sense.

DethWish1426d ago

Mr Logic, really? If PS5 could emulate PS3 games (BC) and PSNow would let you download and play PS3 games locally instead of streaming (like it lets you download PS4 games), wouldn't that be awesome? PSNow has some really interesting PS3 games, but I'd prefer to play them locally

MadLad1426d ago

Really?
Remasters of popular games do extremely well. MS basically hands them out for free. If people didn't want to play older games, then why do remasters sell so well?

anonymousfan1426d ago

I honestly would probably never ever use it... But I still think it would be pretty neat. Its one of the few avantages PC still has on console that is complete backwards compatibility. But for all the work needed to implement this I doubt it would be worth Sony's time.

Melankolis1426d ago

In my opinion.
The difference is independent emulator developer can build any emulator as an experiment that will be perfected for years, maybe more than 10 years. During that time, expect many glitch, bugs, and updates. They can do that because they do not have any obligation towards PC users or whatsoever.

Fos Sony, once they announce PS5 will be able to play PS3 games, they have to make it safe and playable for users. They do not want the emulator cause bricks, glitch, heating up or anything to the consoles and get sued for that.

Harkins17211426d ago

The amount of work it would require sony for each game probably isn't worth it. Maybe after rpcs3 is done they can patent it and use it. That's the dream lol

Father__Merrin1426d ago

This has been going on for years any full game playable yet

EazyC1426d ago

Wish I never sold my PS3 for MGS IV alone, I'm dying to play it again

Gamerking821426d ago (Edited 1426d ago )

Any ps3 owner has too own this masterpiece . My disk drive has just gone on my old super slim . So I bought the digital version no questions ask . If you have a ps3 own this masterpiece that’s all I can say . I replay it every year and still find loads of enjoyment . The last true metal gear in my opinion . V was good and gameplay amazing , but it’s just not a metal gear quality story wise .
