inFamous: Second Son

inFamous: Second Son

April 27, 2014 in Gaming

Ever since I purchased my Playstation 4 I have been waiting for a good next-gen game that was developed specifically for this system. inFamous: Second Son is that game and more. The visuals are stunning and the gameplay is solid, though a bit repetitious at times. In the game you can choose to be a hero or a villain.  I started off my first run through on the hero side of things on the normal difficulty setting.  It was a blast!  Some of the boss battles were a bit frustrating, but not overly so (boss battle video: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=10152331049620692).  I was able to complete the game at 100% and it was interesting leveraging the different powers to defeat different enemies.  Now I am working on the villain side of things as there are different powers available.

In one of the recent updates to the game Sucker Punch added a feature called photo mode.  This feature, once enabled, allows you to pause the game at any point, manipulate the camera in a variety of ways and take a picture.  These pictures can be shared on Facebook and Twitter. You can see a sample from my "villain" game below.

Second Son Photo Mode

You can manipulate the camera quite a bit in this mode, even the f-stop! One gamer site, NeoGAF, is running a photo contest for photos from the game and some of them are pretty spectacular:  http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=805887

So, if you have a Playstation 4 and are looking for a great game with some interesting extras you should check out inFamous: Second Son.
