There are no original gameplay ideas here
It's a retread of what dozens of similar games have done over the past several years
Switching powers keeps things fresh, Moving around the city is a blast, Challenging, but balanced fights
Repetitive sidequests, Missed opportunities in the story, Somewhat generic story missions
Infamous: Second Son isn't the killer app that will help PlayStation 4s fly off the shelves that some may hope it is. It is, however, a well-made and polished game with plenty of gameplay options, and lots to see and do – even if repetition hurts some o...

Open world play, ‘good and evil' replay value, power swap mechanics lend to game's individuality
Repetitious play, linear missions, new powers feel much the same

Abstract: Over the years, the Infamous series has satisfied those fantasies to an extent (barring in-game fangirls).They were great superhero narratives, in the mould of what you'd expect from the house of Marvel if they were to take video games seriously. You're D...
Gorgeous visuals, Fun combat, Diverse powers, Character chemistry
Plot and morality issues
Open-world superhero action games are about freedom and empowerment, and in these regards, Second Son is really impressive. Seattle is a big, beautiful playground for you to stomp around in with a set of devilishly fun and powerful toys at your disposal. ...
Abstract: But this has changed with Infamous: Second Son — an open-world, action-adventure game that takes place seven years after the events of Infamous 2. Gamers will play as Delsin Rowe, a Native American graffiti artist who inherited the power of Smoke after an...
