Second Son is set seven years after the good ending of Infamous 2, in which Cole MacGrath activated the Ray Field Inhibitor (RFI) to destroy a conduit (super humans, named for their ability to channel powers) named John White, also known as the Beast. The explosion resulting from activating the RFI was originally thought to have killed all conduits across the globe, but it seems that some have survived. Fearing the abilities of the conduits after the destruction of Empire City and New Marais (in Infamous and Infamous 2, respectively), the Department of Unified Protection (DUP) is formed, and major cities across the United States are heavily monitored for conduit activity, whom the DUP have labeled collectively as bio-terrorists. The game is set in Seattle, Washington, and players control Delsin Rowe, a 24 year-old graffiti artist with no real direction in life. One day, Delsin witnesses a bus crash, and attempts to help; in the process, he comes in contact with a conduit, and his own dormant conduit abilities are awakened. While his power initially appears to control smoke, Sucker Punch has stated in interviews that Delsin's ability is actually to absorb the abilities of other conduits. With his new abilities, Delsin will dedicate himself to fighting back against the oppressive DUP.
Fox aside, I love what I'm seeing, despite the sitty quality. InFamous was actually one of the games I bought my PS3 for (I just love the genre) and it didn't dissapoint. Sequel was even better, and Second Son looks better still. Really nice.
It looks like a darker, more particle-heavy version of Prototype 2. And I'd still play the shit out of it Has anyone else noticed that this NextGen stuff all seems to be about as many particles and dynamic smoke effects as possible? That seems to be number selling point for everything NextGen so far
Im hyped for this, i loved both infamous games and you get a good chunk of content with that series. And since the launch lineup is totally underwhelming, i will buy Second Son along with my new PS4 when the game gets released.
looking good , dat super move is just so awesome..

prototype 2 is sooo underrated, no game makes you feel so powerful, one of my favorite open world games. this looks really awesome, glad sony didnt pressure them to rush it for ps4s launch.
these screens
can't believe some people still say PS4 isn't next-gen.
Haters are going hate no matter what. Seems their idea of next-gen should be equal to a high end pc that costs £1000 even though we have a £350 console. Give it time the quality will only get better.
yea it looks amazing, i m replaying infamous 2 right now, and while the game looked fine back when it was released, second son is easily a generation apart.

It's not if you compare it to the pc
That said, i'm getting one for final fantasy only, how's that for stupid.
i have pretty good gaming rig, i play BF4 on ultra and i compare to PC and infamous second son looks very next gen to me.
You need glasses then son.
I'm just bustin your ballz, but seriously wait to actually play it yourself before calling it. You know how much bullshotting goes on nowadays (now even more common to show stuff not running on final hardware even.
Look at the screenshots for NFS Rivals that the press got from EA for previews and reviews. Now look at the final game. Not even close. This is promo stuff, when the game gets released no1 will remember how these screens looked. Look at watch_dogs the first reveal trailer and than watch the 14min gameplay footage on the PS4. It looks nothing like the PC reveal trailer.

nop. there are some jaggies on guard rail in one of screenshots, looks like it's 1080p native 2xAA. game just looks that good, no point in denying it now that KZ looks pretty great too.

actually they are, saw them elsewhere in some ridiculous 4K resolutions. tho game is still looking quite good, but nothing jaw dropping really (tho after seeing crysis 3 maxed out in full hd with aa i dunno what else could make any jaw drop atm, maybe if that e3 showing of deep down wasnt prerendered crap :/ ...)
