Ready Up: inFAMOUS 2 review

As inFAMOUS 2’s protagonist, Cole, you’re charged (pun definitely intended here) with ridding the world of an entity called “The Beast”. Doing this means training yourself up and collecting enough power and control to activate a device which will drain The Beast’s powers. The objects through which you gain this power are called Blast Cores and you need to find six in total. You’ve got some help along the way in the shape of your trusty side-kick Zeke and your agency handler Kuo who herself… actually, no, you can find that little nugget out yourself when you play through!

decent score, i would give it a 9 but its his opinion. such a great game! :)

LORD-PHOENIX5446d ago

its not decent what are talking about?

if this was a 360 exclusive or multiplat the scores would be higher

ps3 games get deducted points for hits

firemassacre5446d ago

no matter what score a game gets the fans will know its an amazing game.

Tachyon_Nova5446d ago

I don't get the logic, if knocking scores on PS3 games increases hits, surely that would work for other platforms?

@ Paladinaz - I finished Brotherhood on Wednesday and then went and played inFamous 2, one of my first impressions of the game was that the climbing is less polished than Brotherhoods. Its faster yes, but definitely less polished.

Rattlehead205445d ago

These conspiracy theories that PS3 fanboys have is pathetic...5 Years into this gen and you still think reviewers are 'picking on' the PS3.

cobblestone195445d ago

You know... The 360 only has 6 exclusives scored 90 or above.
Forza 2,3.
Gears 1,2.
Halo 3, Reach.

6 games, 3 franchises.

The Ps3 has 11.

I do think inFamous 2 deserves to have a 90+ score. But reviewers are stupid sometimes...

VictoriousB135445d ago

Still believe that theory? Paranoid fanboy.

This is not even a review of the game, some hilarious quotes:

"inFAMOUS 2 is built on the Unreal engine"
"The building traversal isn’t as polished as Assassins Creed: Brotherhood"

mixelon5446d ago

Haha I thought the same thing. Whaaat.

Where on earth did he get the idea it's Unreal Engine based? Google it and the top mentions are someone saying they think SP should use it to make things easier for themselves, and his article claiming that it does use it..

It doesn't at all.

Markatansky5445d ago

It turns out the reviewer made a mistake regarding the use of the Unreal engine. Seems he "was sure he'd read it in the prep".

I want it too. Make it co-op as well.

-Foxtrot1093d ago

Yeah they had a lightning bolt in the shape of a question mark at the end of Infamous 2

They always went off the good ending for Cole so I think for Delsin it should be the bad ending

What he did in the bad ending, absorbing everyone’s powers, seemed like he was going to turn into something powerful.

Makes you feel like he could have been the real Beast and John was just an anomaly because of them messing with time

Sets up a Cole vs Delsin showdown

lukasmain1093d ago

How would fans feel about a reboot? You know to bring a new audience in? Not a good idea? Good idea?

anast1092d ago

Not a god idea. They let it sit for too long and the game hasn't been strong enough to carry itself all these years. There is so much other stuff out there right now.

masterfox1093d ago

Second Son was released in 2014 was an amazing game visually and gameplay wise, sometimes I play it again on the PS5 and seeing it run at 60 fps is something to behold(yes an almost 10 year old game), if you haven't done that on your PS5 try it you won't be disappointed, pure eye candy, a PS5 exclusive of Infamous would be amazing no doubt.

gold_drake1093d ago

meh, i want Cole to come back.

or maybe a reboot. with cole.

Older PlayStation games that we'd love to see on the PlayStation 5

From Xfire: "For a company with a three-decade-long history in gaming, Sony has done a crappy job at preserving its legacy. "

Flawlessmic1484d ago (Edited 1484d ago )

All the mgs games, all the ape escapes, silent hill 1-4, croc 1 and 2, legend of dragoon, tekken 3,tenshu, bushido blade, vagrant story, okami, ico, crash bash, gt4.

Thats just off the top of my head that i would play immediately, still so many more though that id love.

Welshy1483d ago

MGS, Silent Hill etc are no brainers, but you earned my thumbs up for our boi Croc. I talk about him all the time, it's an honour to find another man of culture.

Flawlessmic1483d ago (Edited 1483d ago )

Hahaha yea was one of my very first games i owned on ps1 as a child, great memories!!

Love to hear there other people out there that enjoyed the gem of a game that is croc 👌

RedDevils1483d ago (Edited 1483d ago )

Okami has HD version already. I want those Sly games though since PS3 and vita had it.

Flawlessmic1483d ago

Yea sly would be cool, i never got into those so would be a good opportunity for me to do so.

But yea theres so many games in sony catalogue we coukd be here all day listing titles.

Hopefully we all get the ganes we are hoping for.

outsider16241483d ago

Tenchu 1 and 2
Socom 1 and 2
MGS 1-3
MGS4
ICO

seanpitt231483d ago

RDR2 for me they can boost that up to 60fps with better graphic settings than last gen

Luc201483d ago

Folklore. It was such a unique and beautiful game. Great soundtrack. I still have my PS3 copy

The_Hooligan1483d ago

YES please! Also I would love to see Warhawk come back. Such an awesome game.

moriarty18891483d ago

The Resistance and a killzone series for me.

Bigman4k1483d ago (Edited 1483d ago )

Infamous 1 & 2 probably will get remaster for PS5/4 at some point as for the others in that article idk

If the PC can emulate the PS3, then for sure the PS5 would be able to do same. but dose Sony want it?

Mr Logic2146d ago

If there was money in it, then Sony would do it. People can bitch and moan all they want, but even if every person on this site used BC, that would still be a tiny fraction of gamers. Almost nobody really uses BC.

DethWish2146d ago (Edited 2146d ago )

I think there would be money if they made PS3 games downloadable through PSNow and added a bunch more.
Edit: I would get it if MGS4 was available

Mr Logic2146d ago

@DethWish

That would be an emulator. You're not making any sense.

DethWish2146d ago

Mr Logic, really? If PS5 could emulate PS3 games (BC) and PSNow would let you download and play PS3 games locally instead of streaming (like it lets you download PS4 games), wouldn't that be awesome? PSNow has some really interesting PS3 games, but I'd prefer to play them locally

MadLad2146d ago

Really?
Remasters of popular games do extremely well. MS basically hands them out for free. If people didn't want to play older games, then why do remasters sell so well?

anonymousfan2146d ago

I honestly would probably never ever use it... But I still think it would be pretty neat. Its one of the few avantages PC still has on console that is complete backwards compatibility. But for all the work needed to implement this I doubt it would be worth Sony's time.

Melankolis2146d ago

In my opinion.
The difference is independent emulator developer can build any emulator as an experiment that will be perfected for years, maybe more than 10 years. During that time, expect many glitch, bugs, and updates. They can do that because they do not have any obligation towards PC users or whatsoever.

Fos Sony, once they announce PS5 will be able to play PS3 games, they have to make it safe and playable for users. They do not want the emulator cause bricks, glitch, heating up or anything to the consoles and get sued for that.

Harkins17212146d ago

The amount of work it would require sony for each game probably isn't worth it. Maybe after rpcs3 is done they can patent it and use it. That's the dream lol

This has been going on for years any full game playable yet

EazyC2146d ago

Wish I never sold my PS3 for MGS IV alone, I'm dying to play it again

Gamerking822146d ago (Edited 2146d ago )

Any ps3 owner has too own this masterpiece . My disk drive has just gone on my old super slim . So I bought the digital version no questions ask . If you have a ps3 own this masterpiece that’s all I can say . I replay it every year and still find loads of enjoyment . The last true metal gear in my opinion . V was good and gameplay amazing , but it’s just not a metal gear quality story wise .
