inFamous: Second Son gets new release date and trailer

Neon

I am rather excited to play inFamous: Second Son, even if it’s protagonist Delsin Rowe seems to be a bit of a jackass. It was originally set to be coming in February, but it looks like it’ll be coming just a bit later than that.

The sexy PS4 exclusive is coming to your new console on  March 21, 2014. I know what I’ll be doing that weekend. Here’s a new trailer showing off Delsin’s neon powers, followed by some pretty cool gameplay capture that somebody has magicked out of nowhere. It looks great; just remember this – YouTube videos do a really, really poor job of showing how crisp, smooth and detailed these games look up close.

Here’s that gameplay capture, from Arekkz Gaming. I think it’s shaping up to be pretty incredible, though it could do with a little bit of extra polish that the later release date affords it.

      You do realize that both InFamous and Prototype launched at pretty much the same time and both were “rip-offs” of each other? InFamous was just the better game in my opinion.

        Yep, but both tended to lose the plot the further you played. Their sequels are where they diverged sharply. Infamous found its legs with the second game and I’d say became something quite spectacular, whereas Prototype 2 just faltered. All that promise of a good second game… gone! Although, it (prototype) wasn’t as bad as the Crackdown sequel though, but Prototype definitely lost its spark.

        Gosh! I want to replay Infamous now. AAARGH! MY BACKLOG!!!

          Completely agree with you. I finished InFamous, but couldn’t get through Prototype. It just got way to repetitive. I’ve seen some of the InFamous 2 gameplay, but never had the chance to play it myself. It looked good though. Prototype 2 lost all appeal. I couldn’t even bother.

          Maybe I should give InFamous 2 a go before Second Son.

    Let’s be honest the midnight launch was pretty shitty. Maybe it was because the Dorito Pope was as excited as a dead corpse and everything he said was contrived and forced, but that precious Infamous trailer left me smiling. I literally can’t wait. PS4 PS4 PS4!

    Alright, now that I’ve been able to see it in 1080p, the environment looks cool. I’m just curious as to how realistic/lifelike the city is. I was recently thinking about ways to make InFamous (or Prototype), more organically driven. Like, it’d be cool if the populace actually reacted with ingenuity to you. For example, in Infamous 1-2, if you went the evil route, the civilians would eventually just start chucking rocks at you and trying to fight you whenever you were in the area. Conversely, if you went good, they’d actually assist you by attacking your foes and/or cheering whenever they saw you.

    What would be even more interesting is if they could actually give the NPC’s a semblance of problem solving AI, where if you’re evil, they can actually come up with complex ways to interfere with you. Turning off power grids, creating traps etc… In Prototype, I was thinking the citizens could just create webwork in between buildings just to screw with your ability to fly all over the place. Ya know?

    It’d take a much beefier AI engine, clearly (X-ray from GSC?). But, it would be really interesting to see how the computer AI evolved over time, and the things it came up with to assist/interfere with you.
