Even if the game doesn't exactly Infamous stringdusters tour. Second Son feels so close yet so far to being the PlayStation hero Sucker Punch and Sony want it to be. The city is the true star of Second Son, and for that alone it is worth playing. inFAMOUS: Second Son is a great start for Sucker Punch on Playstation 4. But Second Son still kept me excited to discover each new power set and happy to shoot fireballs at fascist thugs long into the night. Moving about the impressive cityscape with the help of your miracle powers is a boon. inFamous: Second Son is a lot of fun, with a lot of pretty particles and a few smashing super powers, but the somewhat lackluster story and weird karma-interactions hold it back from being truly great.
Second Son is "just" a good TPP shooter that shows the power of PS4 - but there will be lots of better and prettier games for this console in the future. A very good action game, with great visuals, and the best chapter in the inFamous series, even though it's not particularly original.
