Customer Ratings & Reviews

I've had a PS4 since launch and have been waiting for a game that truly demonstrates the capabilities of this next gen console. While Second Son does a beautiful job of taking advantage of what the PS4 has to offer, I feel like this is only the beginning. The game play is much like past Infamous games, but the addition of some new powers and abilities make it seem fresh and inspiring. I am now in the process of playing through the alternate "choice" paths, but apart from that, the replay ability may be a little limited. The DLC may be the saving grace here. I was pleasantly surprised to find the Paper Trail option available early on, so there is a lot of hope for replay ability there.

Overall it is a fun game engaging story with interesting choices through out. It can be a little repetitive at times especially when you are upgrading your powers but overall it is a fun game.

I really enjoyed the previous editions but this one is even better with the PS4 platform and the powers are cool and different. This is the first must have for the PS4!

If you like action, adventure, a decent storyline and great graphics look no further. I began playing the game on Expert mode and I am 5 hours into it. Non stop fun!

This is the best infamous and beat ps4 game to date. Silky smooth gameplay and true next gen graphics. Extremely fun my only complaint would be lack of side missions

I never owned a PS3 so this is my first experience with the Infamous series. I've heard good things about it so I came in with high hopes. Unfortunately it did not live up to my expectations. Second Son is not a bad game by any means but it's not a great game either. I like the idea of an open world game with a superhero but this game is a little too rough around the edges. Overall I'm glad I only paid $32 for this game at BBY rather than a full $60. First, the story is short and throwaway. The characters frequently jump to conclusions that the previous events did nothing to explain how they came to them. For instance in the beginning the main character Delsin discovers he's a conduit by coming into contact with a fire/smoke conduit. Even though the game explains that contact with a conduit can awaken powers in another person Delsin somehow realizes it wasn't just smoke powers laying inside him but that he's a "power sponge" who can absorb other powers as well with no explanation for how they discovered that. There's other examples of huge plot holes through the entire game as well. Overall the storyline is very short as well with most of your time spent repetitively freeing districts of Seattle from enemy control by doing the same things over and over again ad nauseam with a couple short storyline missions that involve a lot of Delsin chasing after but never catching people, 2.5 boss fights, and the game is over. There's also a black and white morality system which doesn't feel like it affects how the story pans out much. And then there's the controls. Navigation, especially climbing walls, is rather sloppy with Delsin doing things you didn't intend unfortunately often. Battling enemies is made a touch more difficult when you have to fight with your camera to find them. Having 3 different power sets to choose from during the game helps a little but a lot of the abilities, especially for the first 2 sets you receive, are so similar to each other you wonder why they bothered making them separate. As I started this review my overall opinion is this is an average game, worth a play, but it's not a great game you'll spend hours invested in the game world. Get it on the cheap, or better yet rent it, play through it once to say you have, then move on.

I wasn't sure what to expect from Infamous Second Son, as I have never played the previous games... but I was pleasantly surprised. This game has such rich graphics, and settings that are very accurate to present day Washington State. The storyline is a bit predictable, and it felt like Grand Theft Auto due to it's sandbox nature. But in the end, the powers that your character possesses really hold you on the edge of your seat and entertained throughout the game. I highly recommend this title as a must buy for any PS4 owner as the first title to really show off how amazing the entire package is.

Infamous Second Son is an amazing game from beginning to end. The graphics and the story would definitely recommend getting it for yourself and as a gift as well.

I've been waiting Infamous: Second Son from the first day I bought my PS4. All my other PS4 games are just a graphical upgrade to the PS3 games, like Need For Speed and AC4. Infamous: Second Son has some great ideas, like aquiring powers from other conduits. The graphics are almost photo-realistic and the games pace is mostly really good. There are some missions that are better than others and some places that I paused woundering what to do next. Overall, I feel like this is the best reason to own a PS4, followed by the ability to remote play PS4 games on the PS Vita. This is the only "game to buy" right now exclusive to the next generation systems.

I absolutely loved the Infamous games on the PS3 and was looking forward to this one. Second Sons is a fantastic looking game with lots of detail in the city. As an Infamous game it felt, only OK. I loved Cole McGrath from the first one, so Delsin didn't have his charm. The multiple powers were unique, but sometimes became frustrating when accidently drawing from the wrong power source. It is also a relatively short game, but you can maximize playing time by being both Infamous and a Hero. If you like the series, definitely check it out as it's one of the better PS4 games at the moment. I hope they continue the franchise going forward.

The available powers and methods to increase the powers are slick. The graphics and audio are incredible on the game! The PS4 only makes the experience better.

I thought Infamous: Second Son was a pretty good game. It was a bit short and the powers were simple, but I had fun playing it, and thats pretty much all that matters. Recommended.

Sucker punch really stepped up their game with Infamous: Second Son. The controls feel great and fluid and the world feels just as wonderful.

Game is very good and it follows the storyline from the previous ones. Recommended for anyone who wants to have a good time playing a well built game

Great game, fun story and very life-like graphics If you are searching or a game that showcases what the ps4 can really do, this is definitely one to get

Overall it is a grwat game. The graphics are crisp, it has a solid story line and characters, and the game offers one of the first real next-gen feels.

Like all the Infamous games befor it this was a great game, the visuals are exellent, great story line. Thus is a must have game for anyone with a PS4.

As the top of my post suggests, this is, bay far, what an open world game should look/feel/play like! Sucker Punch have done an incredible job with their latest title in this franchise and first foray into current generation gaming. In fact, they've done such a great job, that they've actually embedded a Photo Mode into the live game play. You can pause the game play and take a cool shot with the particles flying around and everything. And that's just the start of Photo Mode! I shared a video link explaining more about Photo Mode. Check it out or go play now!

The game is visually beautiful and shows off the beginning of what the ps4 is capable of doing so far. The story is good kind of short but still good.

The story is better than the first. The graphics are amazing. This is definitely game of the year! The only downside is that it's not for beginners.
