If you own a PS4, then the simple answer is yes.

Mikelarry4421d ago

More like HELL YEEAahhh!!!, but seriously yes my first dabble in the infamous franchise and i had a blast playing this game

Neonridr4421d ago

Me too. I never had a PS3, so I never got to experience the first two. Maybe down the road on PS Now perhaps.

I didn't want to go overboard with my reaction, lol. Shooting rainbows and prancing unicorns dancing around to my "H to the Izzo! You a damn foo unless you play this game!!"

To be honest this should be at the top of the list for any PS4 owner. Probably the best game in the library to date.

Hicken4421d ago

Dude, air is so overrated. 4/10, personally.

HammerKong4421d ago

those who dont own ps4 also must play this game,i know this not the best infamous but an very fun and worth playing game,story is weak but gameplay is best in the series so far and are best graphics in a game so far,weak story can hurt people like me,but i payed this game for its gameplay alone.

xBigxBossx4421d ago

Idk, I got it off gamefly and it's good don't get me wrong. But if you played one or 2 it's the same thing over and over. It's extremely polished, but I wouldn't drop 60 on it. Just my opinion. For gamefly though it was fun.

I have a PS4 but haven't purchased this game yet. I have the first two still that I haven't touched.

Should I play the first two or not bother at this point??

TitanUp4421d ago

i wouldnt worry about the first 2 games im new to infamous and i love second son.

GarrusVakarian4421d ago (Edited 4421d ago )

You definitely don't need to play the past 2 games, but i would still recommend playing them, the Festival of Blood standalone DLC for Infamous 2, too.

HammerKong4421d ago

if you would ask me i recomend to play last 2 atleast ,those were master pieces and best infamous so far,new one is a blast in gamplay but game is far from perect because of its story.

Ilovetheps54421d ago

The previous two aren't required to play Second Son as Lukas said. However, I personally believe that the first inFamous was the best. I'm not going to spoil anything for you in case you decide to play them, but there were just certain parts about the first game that made it much more fun and it just had a better storyline and better main character in my opinion. But if you want to bypass those two and play Second Son straight away, you will have no issues doing so.

Negative774421d ago

Thanks for the replies. I've been holding off picking up SS thinking I should play the first two before the new one.

I'll pick it up this weekend probably - but may hit up the first two before I actually dive seriously into SS.

Happy gaming!

windblowsagain4421d ago

I would still play the others and they are excellent games in their own right.

WeAreLegion4421d ago

Play all three and the Festival of Blood DLC. They're all phenomenal games.

sic_chops4421d ago

Its not really a sequel to the other ones as far as the story goes.

ginsunuva4421d ago

Play the first two!

Or at least just the second.

I already beat it twice (once evil and one good guy) but I don't think I will play it again due to the nature of single player only game. I am trading in the game towards my MLB 14 preorder toady as a matter of fact. A great game to play but offer very little value once you beat it.

LOl ,the disagree, I am trading in the game to purchase another PS4 game...don't be so hasty. :-)

fonger084421d ago

Yeah me too, apparently Gamestop will give you close to $40 with the 40% coupon trade-in value. I'll be using that towards Mario Kart.

No_Limit4421d ago

Funny you would say that, as I traded in my copy of XB1 Battlefield 4 for Mario Kart myself and got $35 for it. It is a great thing to own all the consoles, isn't it?

fonger084421d ago

That's right, that's how real gamers, game.

dodgemoose4421d ago

I don't really understand why people are disagreeing with you. It's a great game - which is reflected within reviews - but it doesn't offer any longevity. Once you've completed it from both sides, that's it. That's why I really don't understand why people would buy this game digitally, since you can't sell it on or give it to a friend after you've finished with it (which will happen pretty damn fast).

WeAreLegion4421d ago

I platinumed it. First PS4 platinum! It doesn't take a whole lot of time, either. I barely get to play video games. Lol. Such a wonderful game though. I'd recommend it to anyone.

sAVAge_bEaST4421d ago (Edited 4421d ago )

I still think that inFamous Second Son is the best looking game on Any Console. Period. End of Story.

Lowsnamebrand4421d ago

Agreed never seen such beautiful destruction... Blowing up a line of cars with one smoke mission is poetry in motion IMO

KinjoTakemura4421d ago

Agreed. The lighting and the physics are like nothing I've ever seen. If anyone has seen something comparable on PS4 or Xbox1, i'd like to know what game that is...

JustInTlME4421d ago

Ehhhh…… I love the lighting and reelections but Ground Zeroes still looks better IMO.

They really need to

Go off the evil ending off Second Son

Delsin absorbs all those powers

Revealed he’s the real Beast and John in Infamous 2 was just an anomaly created by timelines being messed with by Kessler.

Cole vs the Real Beast

gold_drake668d ago

quite honestly, i dont remember a whole lot about 2 amymore, but i absolutely hated the guy in second son haha.

chicken_in_the_corn667d ago

It would make more sense to go off the evil ending of 2 and the good ending g of SS where Cole is The Beast.

Cacabunga666d ago

Doesnt make any sense calling second son 2 as infamous 3..

OtterX667d ago

Ha, yea Delsin was obnoxious.

I wouldn't mind another new character, but somehow bring Cole into the story.

We can just pretend like Delsin never existed. :)

thejigisup667d ago

Everyone that age is obnoxious. It's been years and is like to think delsin has grown

neutralgamer1992667d ago

Until we wait for a potential new entry it would awesome to have infamous collection for PS5

RaidenBlack667d ago

Umm ... how about this?
First we get the Tushima sequel(coz its most rumored)
Then a new Resistance (need new PS SP FPS)
Then a totally new IP (new IPs are always interesting)
And then a new inFamous?

Pepsi_Man3000667d ago

resistance is insomniac I think

xHeavYx667d ago

Can we also get a complete remaster of InFamous 1 and 2?

fr0sty666d ago

Gimme a new Warhawk and MAG while we're at it.

DivineHand125667d ago

I had a great time with the second son. Never got to play the originals and hope they get remastered one day.

DazaMc667d ago

The graphics were amazing, I got the platinum on that one. Very good.

ChasterMies667d ago (Edited 667d ago )

If I had a choice between another Infamous game and another Spider-Man game, I choose Spider-Man. Sony should spend its resources on its winners.

Tacoboto667d ago (Edited 667d ago )

Infamous was such a winner its studio was given the freedom (after 3 titles + their expansions) to do a new IP with GoT, just like with Sly Cooper before infamous.

I'd welcome a 4th title even more than another Spider-Man, it'd be exciting what they could do with new powers fit for the hardware outside the limits of a licensed superhero game.

jznrpg667d ago

Spider-Man is guaranteed and is made by Insomniac so why not both as Sucker Punch would make Infamous.
