Opened my special ed today and feel robbed. It's just a thin cardboard box for the game holder and not a proper case. Even the outer box is crappy as it bends to easy. Hopefully the game will change my first impressions.

INFAMOUS SECOND SON review

Second play through and I am less blown away by the visuals. (Amazing how quickly you get de-sensitized!)
After completing the game first time I was really taken by the whole superhero thing, the powers the incredible final climax & scored it a 10.
Now I see that there is a wonderful technical game, but the dev's didn't have time to put enough game content into the world in order to give the player more interesting and fun tasks to do in the world. The SP was good, and the missions were fun, so it mostly comes down to the lack of variety in the side missions and lack of interactivity in the game world.
Still a very solid game, high 7 pushing 8. As a technical demo and sign of things to come, 10.

I started my evil playthrough but then realised I couldn't be bothered!
Starting again without the "wow" factor started to make me notice inconsistencies in the graphics such as lack of puddle reflections, no reflection for Delsin in windows and a large amount of pop in as you approach buildings.
I'm not having a dig at the game for these things but I'm just surprised I didn't consciously notice them before.

I scored it an 8 because it was a bloody enjoyable experience and it is stunning to look at! The vistas are immense!!
It's just a shame that little things like reflections aren't being created. The texture pop-in I can get as the draw distance is pretty amazing.
But. It's still an amazing game!!!

had a rip on this last night and its quite tasty - pretty much like the first two, but with very nice graphics. A very playable game. dont think its the best thing since sliced bread though.
poor options screen though - no option for hud removal/transparency or to turn pad vibration off.
frame rate is up and down like a fiddlers elbow, although its subtle.
