Hoped for the release of the PS4, Second Son has experienced a pregnancy a little longer than expected. An ignition delay has nothing to worry about when attending pyrotechnic and others Delsin performance. Cole is no longer in the game, but he reassures where it is, the future is assured. InFamous: Second Son, it shakes.



inFamous: Second Son 

Cole McGrath is no more. The hero of the first two games went by the wayside. Why? Well, it seems that it is simply our fault. Finally believe Nate Fox, game director of the game, the reason for this sudden death has nothing outrageous or unusually cruel since (spoil attention that follows for those who have not played inFamous 2) " is looking at the statistics trophies inFamous 2, we have found that 78% of players chose to sacrifice Cole. Respecting the choice of the majority, we naturally turned to the creation of a new character. " Thus Delsin Rowe was born, starting the adventure seven years after the events of the last installment. For those who find the transition a little rough, do not worry, Sony has planned everything (always a fee, of course) with Cole's Legacy DLC bringing some missions, intended to explain how inFamous password New Marais occupation Seattle by the DPU (Department of Unifed Protection).

IA ouch ouch? 


The AI ​​does not shine by its intelligence.
Seattle Space Needle and the new destination is selected by Sucker Punch studio based in Seattle ... (well its suburbs, Bellevue exactly). And judging by its size, Delsin enjoy a golf game therefore to make the main and auxiliary which will be proposed missions. And as it is here for, he will have plenty to report his talents superhero. For as Cole earlier, it either is not a nobody like the others. Using neon signs to load electricity and throwing lightning while moving on earth as in heaven in a crazy speed, pump smoke cars to suffocate enemies and move through the ventilation ducts, it n 'There is nothing wrong about it, Delsin has arguments shock. A demonstration of its capabilities unusual that will continue during the fighting face to members of the DPU. Reluctant to leave you alone and aware of the danger you represent the militia out the big guns. Not surprising then to see stand in front of you checkpoints and armed with guns to guard the furious pace. You'll understand that we should not procrastinate two hours because it is mainly in these moments that full mastery of powers is inevitable, failing to finish six feet under. Fortunately, flee these frantic battles and use the power of neon to run up walls and take refuge on a roof, the time to regenerate, remains an option. An alternative that is often used and will also highlight a question mark: the quality of the AI. If opponents are not really awkward at gunpoint, they do not push the effort pursuing you in unlikely places. Or why not. We've seen it thousands of times and finally once more .... However, seen thousands of times too, but hardly forgivable today that the enemies do not come you dislodge while you are hidden behind a wall that is pitiful, located three meters fifty. Where the rub a little or a lot.

Karma ... geddon or not 


Naughty or nice, you choose!
Seattle is a beautiful city. Certainly. But the most pleasant in this story is to say that one can deteriorate sitting quietly on the sofa. And these are not the three guards comfortably stashed up their gateway that say otherwise. A simple press of a button and there dropping a dozen meters in the rubble under a deafening noise sheet. Spectacular, yes. You have entered (if you do not know it yet), Delsin can destroy everything for free, but also degrade the environment to facilitate its infiltration in the city. Evidenced by this reflection of his brother Reggie (that accompanies the sequence that we played) who welcomes botching a surveillance camera. We do not know the impact this action will have on the short term, but like conspicuous radio antennas on the roof, we can legitimately think that their destruction will have consequences (secondary mission). Just as the act of attacking civilians, leading to evoke the karma. Will it present in Second Son? Everything leads us to believe, or when Sucker Punch has not grasped what makes the charm of the series. Specifically, the orientation of the history of Delsin evolve (it) according to his actions. It kills civilians (or these poor guitarists street) or on the contrary that come to their aid change (it) his physical appearance, the nature of his spells and subsequent missions. Become a cute superhero or a bad boy, inFamous: Second Son should, except huge surprise, allow the player the freedom to choose sides and thus walk in the footsteps of his older triumphant.

Very good gameplay 


Visually, Second Son looks very successful.
Despite a fairly short presentation, first impressions of the game portend a rather positive near future. Visually already inFamous: Second Son slap. Although no one really likes the rain, Seattle at night in this climate really the stamp. The textures of the environment clearly demonstrate the capabilities of the PS4, no clipping or visible aliasing. The brightness and lighting effects, meanwhile, are perfectly mastered delivering a striking picture that one can only admire when calm descends on the city. In terms of gameplay, if the combos require some training before being properly controlled, the rest remains quite classic, not to mention the use of the touchpad to certain actions of the background (ID scanner, lift some objects). Last point for those unfamiliar with the series, the powers are not cumulative, the new replacing the previous. While inFamous: Second Son is he worthy of our attention or not he apparent that a smokescreen? All indications are that there is no smoke without fire. And the fireworks on PS4, we should be able to trust Delsin. For the moment.
