The gameplay isn’t the best thing ever (especially not in the first game), but the storytelling and general feel of the game is what makes it good. I wasn’t particularly interested before I got a free copy as an apology back when PSN went down for a month, played it mostly because “hey, free games!”, and loved it.<br /><br />A lot of games make you a hero and have you save the world. Not so many really make you feel like one. The game doesn’t give you superpowers and force you to save anyone, it puts you in the body of a confused bike carrier who’s suddenly a walking battery and framed as a terrorist. Cole has no reason to save anyone, it’s up to you if you want to stay on the narrow path and make sacrifices to save others… or just want to go nuts with your powers and kill anyone who stands in your way.<br />These choices and the not half bad writing (ignoring some terribly written sidequests that generally make no sense) add up to a game that certainly doesn’t have the best gameplay ever, but gives you a feeling of power and weight of your actions unlike any other game I’ve played.<br /><br />Also, inFamous 2 is ten times better than the first game by miles, and all the teasing they’re doing for Second Son gives me some high hopes for it, despite not having Cole anymore.Uppfinnarnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09498034188285025189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5553633213256417629.post-39969954952377101542014-03-03T07:34:04.799-05:002014-03-03T07:34:04.799-05:00Giving Second Son a 60% chance to be good, just be...Giving Second Son a 60% chance to be good, just because it's the third installment? Okay. Fine. Let's just ignore Super Mario Bros 3, Sonic the Hedgehog 3, Castlevania 3, Metal Gear Solid 3, Zelda: Link to the Past, Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire, Super Metroid, Kid Icarus: Uprising, and Devil May Cry 3, among many of the other great third installments.HeadBodyMasterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17421125276314259294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5553633213256417629.post-87811223666760615872014-03-02T05:00:07.185-05:002014-03-02T05:00:07.185-05:00I remember in FFX theres an item combo of Riku'... I remember in FFX theres an item combo of Riku's that deals 99,999 damage, i didnt read aobut this anywhere, so its not one of those nifty secrets only for the hard core gamers. It was an obvious combo, that it ruined my FFX experience on so many levels. Why was this made so easy and possible? It made no sense. And then in the final battle everyone just gets immortal status. why wasnt this just a cut scene? I'm still confused to this day.<br /> Well..i guess they knew i was probably gonna end up grinding anyways so just fuck it. who needs gameplay in an rpg anyways? The story was good however, and for my 13 year old tastes Yuna was hot.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
