OmNomNomNomNom Tbh i kinda prefer the first one.Just by a bit though.Well i prefer the *story* in the second one,but the 1st game as a whole is in my opinion a tiny bit better. I love all three of the games though.But my favorite has to be Second Son.
So in order to carry out his plan, Kessler had to go back in time in order speed up the particle accelerator explosion to give Barry Allen his powers faster..... wait.. wrong story.
They only decided the good karma version was canon in order to release Second Son. If you play evil karma, you get an entirely different game, so it's like two games in one. One of many reasons this game is my all-time fave.
Fun Fact, originally they were going to use the Infamous 2 Evil path as cannon for the Third Infamous game, but once they looked at the PSN trophy statics they deiced to use the good ending which many more people had gotten then the evil.
Everyone who's curious to how the conduits survived the wiki says some people had natural resistance to the explosion. Also it's possible the conduit gene wasn't dominant in some people and skipped them but reappeared in their descendants. If this incorrect forgive me I don't know much about genetics.
inFAMOUS SECOND SON has kinda let me down. I love the updated graphics and everything that they did with the lighting but everything else, especially story wise, pales in comparison to the first two instalments of the game. inFAMOUS 2 was so much richer: the consequences of Cole’s good/evil decisions were more profound and behind each choice there was a realistic motivation; the missions were more varied, with several factions to face and numerous enemy types to fight, not to mention the abundant and interesting boss fights; the map was more developed, providing very different battlegrounds as the story progressed; Cole’s powers also allowed for a more customisable and tactical fighting experience, one that allowed you to interact with and weaponise the environment, using it to your advantage.
they spent so long on the graphics everything else was subpar, I hope that if a sequel comes out it will be better, I watched a pair of videos by PositivelyNegative and saw what he wanted for the new game, and I whole-heartedly agree with hjim, I recommend you check them out.
For that reason alone I am glad this game comes out on Friday, that way I can let infamous second son consume my life without having to worry about work getting in the way.
Infamous 1 was the shit for me. I mean I never played a free roaming super hero game like that since Spiderman. Plus the story was really great, the comic book style cutscenes were cool. I passed on Infamous 2, but can't wait to play second son.
Braindead down syndromatic Logang pauler GoB player I absolutely loved the second one. Although that was probably since I played the second one before the first and I didn't have anything ruined for me.
Luke Pajarillo so Cole is from the 'First Sons' in some way because he is part of the first conduit generation, and Densil is from de second generation so he is from the 'Second sons'
Okay one major problem with this: in the game Cole states that the RFI wont just kill lots of conduits, it will kill ALL conduits. It even shows at the end of the game, people on the other side of the planet dropping dead, who didn't even know they were conduits... So how can Second Son take place if they're all dead.. I guess they've changed it so not all died, bugs me..
Dr. Wolfe claimed the RFI would kill them all, but never had any proof to back this up. Some people confuse this with the fact that it was proven by Dr. Wolfe.
Sucker Punch themselves stated that the RFI killed most conduits but that only a minority survived it. Also the fact that the RFI would kill all conduits was a hypothesis by Dr. Wolfe and not something that was proven.
If I remember correctly a while ago during an interview or something they said that even though it killed the majority of conduits some with a stronger conduit gene survived.
I remember watching a video before Second Son came out which theorized the Alden Tate from inFAMOUS 1 would have created another conduit society after Cole basically destroyed the First Sons. It would also give a reason as to why Tate survived inFAMOUS, because there basically no reason to have him live after jumping off of the bridge. I don't think even the comics explained what happened to him.
Originally, the bad side was supposed to be canon by the Devs, but when the second was made they changed it because most people chose to get the good ending.
holy shit, what a story!! i feel more terrible than ever for picking up a shitbox 360 than a ps3 back in 2009......never again microshaft, never again.
Great video! I really appreciate these videos because I for one did not get to play the previous infamous games. Thanks again and keep up the great work.
For those new players just getting into Infamous: You don't really have to play the first two games to understand the story. Also, Cole might be alive since he didn't mention that the boat was struck by lightning right before the ending.
that was to signify that we don't know what will happen next, it was in the shape of a question mark, I really hope Cole doesn't come back, it would completely undermine his sacrifice.
"And A New See-Through Top....." I Just Love How Greg ( The Narrator ) Made The Audience Take A Few Seconds To Appreciate THAT Bit. Awesome Delivery On The Infamous Story By the Greg ! .
When I first saw Second Son's trailer I thought that Delsin would be one of Nix's relatives because of the whole smoke thing. Now I get that conduits don't work like that and I was a huge dumbass.
the one thing i hated about the new second son game is that the good and evil side powers and story are almost identical (like copy and paste identical) in Infamous 1 and 2 the 2 sides are very different
Being a lover of all things Infamous, playing every iteration in every way and now eager to go back and redo it for the good side (yeah, played bad the first time on both games XD) as well as to acquire every single trophy and platinum this epic game, I found this video to be quite entertaining, and it gave a good overhead of the story that was so stunningly narrated that it makes the story I once called just "good" seem far more amazing. Great work here, Greg, and anyone else involved with this video over at IGN. Oh, and I especially love the way it ended. Just a little down that I am not an owner of the PS4 (yet) :( Gotta wait till the summer when I start my job.
I never played the first infamous but I did play part two and this review cleared up what I thought happened in the first one, plus this was an excellent review; can't wait for second son!!
Im glad IGN made this video I never played Infamous2 so I was so like what when I found out john was the beast. I also hope Infamous SS is reviewed by Greg Miller because the fact that he really cares about the story AND PLEASE IGN DONT SPOIL ANY OF THE OTHER POWERS IN INFAMOUS SS.... I have to wait til may to get my PS4 :(
The next INFAMOUS game should be a continuation of the evil ending of inFAMOUS 2 where we play as Cole using the Beast's powers and we have an army of conduits
Liamjm The start of 2nd game is neutral to whatever path was taken in the 1st game. The ending of 2nd game as evil is everything you saw in the video except at the end Cole basically becomes the Beast and all the humans are wiped out. Oh and you kill *** and are forced to also kill **** on your path to the dark side. Really good ending that was worth playing through again. The last bit of the game is very different mission/emotions than the good play through.
InFamous side story Spoiler Alert!!! WATCH AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!! I WARNED YOU!!!! its not called infamous evil. its just the infamous side, they played the hero side. in InFamous 2 Cole kills Zeke and Nix, the beast can't fight anymore and gives Cole his powers. Cole will have to clense the plague and reveal the conduit gene from the people who lived.
Aw man , my brother sold his ps3 so i never got to finish any infamous , i got almost to the end of the first one. This video was great for setting me up for Second Son. Now , I only need to buy the ps4 :(
This was excellent! An awesome summary to help my story understanding for one of my favourite games series Dat background music tho. I need to know what it is!! O_O
I never played inFamous but that was due to my only owning a 360. (i've been all xbox since it first released up until now). I always wanted to play though and this video really helps me understand what the hell is going on in the game. 3/21/14 can't wait!
***** I always thought that would have made a great prequel, tell the story of the how the original Cole went off the deep end and turned into a villain. The only down side is that there would be no reason for the morality system because, being a prequel, we already know how its going to end so it wouldn't make sense to allow you to be good or bad. Or at the very least, make into a comic book mini series or something (preferably by Dark Horse.
***** true but I think it's already quite clear that he did it out of guilt over his family because it wasn't until they died that he made the decision to go back in time.
Faewulf I think the original was what helped the ps3 live on for some people, since gta4 was definitely not the reason it passed, and since most hero/shooter games were trashy and just copied each other.
I've been putting off infamous series for years due to me playing uncharted,resistance,killzone,god of war,etc.. but I'm finally playing infamous and so far I'm loving it. It's a lot of fun and refreshig
I got a PS4 because of second son a few days ago. It was well worth it. It's a really short game though, but other than that the story's good, gameplay is amazing and not even to mention how epic the graphics are. The game was worth every cent, I'm still playing side missions, and I might play it again for evil karma.
TCTNGaming the fact that infamous second son's graphics really showed how powerful the ps4 is, kinda dissapoints me because it might not take very long to reach the ps4's peak
I don't really think that, because games will get optimized better as time goes, developpers will find ways to make games look better with worse hardware, I mean look at infamous one and compare it to some of the latest PS3 games like last of us. I hope that's going to be the same with the PS4
Actually no o.O the FPS only dropped ones when I did the neon blast thing and there was just too much stuff going on on the screen but other than that works perfectly.
If Kessler is Cole from the future and he had (or tried to save his wife Trish ) and his two kids you guys don't think that those two(or one of those two)kids could've been Delsin do you? I mean think about it
Wait, if Kessler's entire motive was to give Cole his powers early and get him ready to fight the beast and save everyone (including Trish) then why did he kill her in the first game? isn't that undermining everything he worked for in the first place?
I believe because trish was probably a motivating factor not to fight the beast, but of course she is killed by the beast anyway, so if Kesler went back in time and killed trish, I wouldnt make that much of a difference, and also if she were alive then she would have been a distraction.
***** Kessler was the most interesting part of inFamous 1 and 2, in my opinion, maybe the next inFamous could be an alternate timeline Kessler game. Now that would be cool.
James Wiebe There was no Kessler in inFAMOUS 2. Just John White, Zeke, and Cole went from first game to 2nd game. Even Moira (or whatever her real name is) was never heard from again after first game.
It may be 2019 but after watching this video again it's making me want to turn on my PS3 again just play all of Infamous again. It was that fantastic of a game
On both IGN's youtube channel and site, the comment section is just fucking shit. Seriously IGN, can you maybe ban some people? Can't go to a Sony exclusive game's video without Xbox fanboys hating, can't watch something about a Xbox exclusive game video without PS fanboys hating. Seriously, do something!
it does fall within the parameters of modern physics, considering that conduits can control specific matter and energy and time is just a bi-product of matter and energy.
I feel inFamous is a series that doesn't get enough praise though the series is great
Yessir Mm mm.
SirrLuxx
the first game isn't that great. the second one is gold
Are you talking about the graphics?
SirrLuxx Completely agreed. I mean sure, most people love all three of the games, but it still needs to get more praise if you ask me.
OmNomNomNomNom Tbh i kinda prefer the first one.Just by a bit though.Well i prefer the *story* in the second one,but the 1st game as a whole is in my opinion a tiny bit better. I love all three of the games though.But my favorite has to be Second Son.
These games don't receive enough attention. Just about everything about them is unique and interesting.
+Ian Gallagher Is the best franchise i ever played :)
second son was OK , got pretty boring halfway through
Joshua Castillo But the first two were fantastic.
+Aaron Fyfe You're right, I would play it if it wasn't an PlayStation exclusive...
This game is in the top 5 games of my life, is a game that i played a lot and spent a lot of hours playing this beauty! :D
So in order to carry out his plan, Kessler had to go back in time in order speed up the particle accelerator explosion to give Barry Allen his powers faster..... wait.. wrong story.

lol
I'm using a phone,can't do it
InFamous 2 was, in my opinion, the most underrated game of the last generation
Underrated? It sold a lot more than most games, and that's even more impressive considering it's a ps3 exclusive.
I mean critically
George Thorney I agree. How much does it have,like a 83 on metacritic? That's waaayyy too low in my opinion.
Imo I thought Infamous 2 was the best PS3 exclusive of 2011.
***** I disagree. I think Uncharted 3 was better.
damn, the first two have really complicated stories compared to second son's.
+caguko I must've played the first two 3 times each, but I still don't understand what the hell's going on XD
because second son really has not much to do with the first two, it's more of just a revenge story
I played the first 2 games 4 times each. Twice as a Hero, twice while infamous.
ShadowX 1337
Never gets old m8 :P
EknonCo No. No, it doesn't. :)
Anyone else think infamous deserves a remaster?
They only decided the good karma version was canon in order to release Second Son. If you play evil karma, you get an entirely different game, so it's like two games in one. One of many reasons this game is my all-time fave.
i beleive the also made the good endings cannon becuase the sh*t woude hit the fan in the time line
in games like this the good ending is always the canon one, like in force unleashed
slipspacer88
well in infamous decides what endigns cannon from whitch is most played
sure go on believing that if it makes you feel better
slipspacer88
im going of what i heard so dont be a arse
and ppl say infamous doesn't have a good story yeah right
Germy Ocates wait who exactly says that
but the story is nonsensical
Incognito D It's sci-fi dumbass
Incognito D jeezes it really is
Better than HALO
This makes me want to play the games for a 100th time.
Oo oO How's that sad?
POTTERANDMATRIXFAN Jim
POTTERANDMATRIXFAN k
POTTERANDMATRIXFAN SAME!!!
POTTERANDMATRIXFAN ikr
I would Love a remastered version of this
Same
I thought I was the only one asking for inFAMOUS 1 and 2 remastered.
PS6
in ps5
Same
Kinda dumb that conduits are bastardized after Cole sacrificed his life at the end of inFAMOUS 2.
I Blame The Beast.
I blame Wolf
+Son Goli I blame Fox
+Son Goli I blame Fox
Fun Fact, originally they were going to use the Infamous 2 Evil path as cannon for the Third Infamous game, but once they looked at the PSN trophy statics they deiced to use the good ending which many more people had gotten then the evil.
Infamous wont be the same without Cole.
plot twist: cole's not dead!
BattleT Plot twist: Cole is definitely dead. Sucker Punch founder said it himself
Moneesh Mohan plot twist: the founder of sucker punch **IS** Cole
BattleT lol. That's a good one. BTW both of them have similar hairline.
RarityGamer how do you know cole is not dead?
Coles death was sadder than any other Video game death
ikr
ikr this is the besg video game series
what about roman in GTA IV?
wasn't that sad after awhile
Roman's.
Infamous in 9 words: What are you doing here? Go play it now!
FloMaxster what are you talking about? :3
***** Nice Edit. Sorry, but your not slick ;)
Thats 8 words shithead
T R A S H it’s 9
axb that’s 9
The first game had the best story
+Greg Bedjanian true
+Greg Bedjanian second son is hit compared to infamous 1
The 2nd one had the best story, sorry.
Keirra Mitchell theyre both ONE story about the same character
Youssef Ibrahim just different parts of the story.
Everyone who's curious to how the conduits survived the wiki says some people had natural resistance to the explosion. Also it's possible the conduit gene wasn't dominant in some people and skipped them but reappeared in their descendants. If this incorrect forgive me I don't know much about genetics.
yeah, some un-activated conduits survived, but I'm pretty sure all activated ones were killed, and then more people started activating
half as long, twice as bright
Thats right brother
zcabisca and I'm sure gonna miss you
Some people say "Conduits aren't human. That's bullshit. Because there's nobody with more humanity than Cole MacGrath."
A King Of Gaming i love you brother and i am sure i am going to miss you (good show)
A King Of Gaming That line from Zeke hits deep man.. every time
inFAMOUS SECOND SON has kinda let me down. I love the updated graphics and everything that they did with the lighting but everything else, especially story wise, pales in comparison to the first two instalments of the game. inFAMOUS 2 was so much richer: the consequences of Cole’s good/evil decisions were more profound and behind each choice there was a realistic motivation; the missions were more varied, with several factions to face and numerous enemy types to fight, not to mention the abundant and interesting boss fights; the map was more developed, providing very different battlegrounds as the story progressed; Cole’s powers also allowed for a more customisable and tactical fighting experience, one that allowed you to interact with and weaponise the environment, using it to your advantage.
they spent so long on the graphics everything else was subpar, I hope that if a sequel comes out it will be better, I watched a pair of videos by PositivelyNegative and saw what he wanted for the new game, and I whole-heartedly agree with hjim, I recommend you check them out.
Be mindful that this is the storyline of the Hero side of Infamous 1 and 2
The canonical side.
Great narration Greg! Infamous: Second Son is going to consume my life very very soon haha
Emma! I Agree, I can't wait.
im wicked exited
For that reason alone I am glad this game comes out on Friday, that way I can let infamous second son consume my life without having to worry about work getting in the way.
Patrick Watychowicz I'll drink to DAT my good man! :D .... Uhhhhh, maybe not... X.X; St. Patty's day and all... x)
Can’t believe how long it’s been
infamous is my favorite game
Infamous 1 was the shit for me. I mean I never played a free roaming super hero game like that since Spiderman. Plus the story was really great, the comic book style cutscenes were cool. I passed on Infamous 2, but can't wait to play second son.
ds37 good call, the 2nd one wasent good
Trevor Jackson second one was eh
Braindead down syndromatic Logang pauler GoB player I absolutely loved the second one. Although that was probably since I played the second one before the first and I didn't have anything ruined for me.
Dude the second one was a masterpiece
2nd one was good what are u talking about
Never really played other Infamous games, but Second Son looks really good.
These games are so underrated. They have great stories and game play. I am really hoping Sucker Punch is working on a new InFamous!
They might be working on the next Spiderman game which might be exclusively on PlayStation 4
the first sons...... oooooh so that's why the ps4. game is called SECOND SON. I GET IT.
that was my reaction too
Luke Pajarillo I was like,Densil has a brother so maybe his born second.But then boom first sons!
Never realized that.
Luke Pajarillo so Cole is from the 'First Sons' in some way because he is part of the first conduit generation, and Densil is from de second generation so he is from the 'Second sons'
Con Sampa boom i thought that too
I think Greg makes a much better narrator than a host.
I just think he gets annoying at times when he hosts stuff on the channel.
Okay one major problem with this: in the game Cole states that the RFI wont just kill lots of conduits, it will kill ALL conduits. It even shows at the end of the game, people on the other side of the planet dropping dead, who didn't even know they were conduits... So how can Second Son take place if they're all dead.. I guess they've changed it so not all died, bugs me..
Dr. Wolfe claimed the RFI would kill them all, but never had any proof to back this up. Some people confuse this with the fact that it was proven by Dr. Wolfe.
It's not that all are killed, most of them are are killed. I think it's about 90% of the Conduit population
Sucker Punch themselves stated that the RFI killed most conduits but that only a minority survived it. Also the fact that the RFI would kill all conduits was a hypothesis by Dr. Wolfe and not something that was proven.
If I remember correctly a while ago during an interview or something they said that even though it killed the majority of conduits some with a stronger conduit gene survived.
What about the electricity at the end? I thought Cole had somehow survived.
Damn that was a good review.
REALLY!!!! LOL
Godly Spartans why are you so excited
Its on ps3 only
Abraham Ramos nope it’s on PS4 now
I never played infamous but after seeing second son in action I might get it.
It looks really good especially the neon and Video powers
not a spoiler I mean its even on Wikipedia
I am also thinking about getting it
I actually found neon and video to be boring powers. I preferred smoke and concrete.
Did anyone else choose the evil path for every game the first time around
No sorry. I do not have the guts
That's what I'm doing with the next game
I'm annoyed that there's no connection between Second Son and Infamous 1's First Sons
There was Cole DLC in inFamous 2nd son
+avatar1o1234 coke? xD u mean Cole?
bombo lol yea 😂
ikr
I remember watching a video before Second Son came out which theorized the Alden Tate from inFAMOUS 1 would have created another conduit society after Cole basically destroyed the First Sons. It would also give a reason as to why Tate survived inFAMOUS, because there basically no reason to have him live after jumping off of the bridge. I don't think even the comics explained what happened to him.
Damn, this movie would be much better than The Avengers, if ever existed. You just made me wanna buy first two games ;).
Yeah keep telling yourself that.
Asupernaruto1 Damn, this movie would be much better than The Avengers, if ever existed. You just made me wanna buy first two games ;).
Omfg SPECTACULAR GAME one of the greatest
Leg master pro
Vladimir Pejić I've beat the game sooooooo many times
So the good side is cannon?
Yep
Originally, the bad side was supposed to be canon by the Devs, but when the second was made they changed it because most people chose to get the good ending.
What's cannon?
santos lopez official lore/history within the game.
Is there such thing as Metal Gear Solid in 5 minutes
Dude, nostalgia for me... used to play it without knowing what was going on...
one of the most underrated games
Good job, Greg. Infamous:Second Son is going to be glorious.
holy shit, what a story!! i feel more terrible than ever for picking up a shitbox 360 than a ps3 back in 2009......never again microshaft, never again.
same
After seeing this, I regret not getting a PS3 and sticking just to the 360. TLOU actually has me upset aswell!
***** ***** I know, I can't!
Thanks for the refresher. I've slowly forgotten details over the years, so this has me even more pumped for Second Son!
Great video! I really appreciate these videos because I for one did not get to play the previous infamous games. Thanks again and keep up the great work.
Get ready, a Masterpiece is coming.
For those new players just getting into Infamous: You don't really have to play the first two games to understand the story. Also, Cole might be alive since he didn't mention that the boat was struck by lightning right before the ending.
The devs have said themselves that cole is dead/// DEAD.... totally dead
***** yeah .i wonder what cole's legacy dlc is
***** What else would they say? Yes Cole is alive and ruin the possible surprise?
I noticed that Lightning struck the boat.. and thats right u dont have to know about the first 2 games a developer said, to play tjis game right
that was to signify that we don't know what will happen next, it was in the shape of a question mark, I really hope Cole doesn't come back, it would completely undermine his sacrifice.
"And A New See-Through Top....."
I Just Love How Greg ( The Narrator ) Made The Audience Take A Few Seconds To Appreciate THAT Bit.
Awesome Delivery On The Infamous Story By the Greg ! .
This video game hits hard in 2022
When I first saw Second Son's trailer I thought that Delsin would be one of Nix's relatives because of the whole smoke thing. Now I get that conduits don't work like that and I was a huge dumbass.
Greg! I think your narration/personality and enthusiasm for Infamous goes hand in hand.
That was so freacking awesome man and i love when u put in inFAMOUS second son!
Infamous is awesome
the one thing i hated about the new second son game is that the good and evil side powers and story are almost identical (like copy and paste identical)
in Infamous 1 and 2 the 2 sides are very different
Being a lover of all things Infamous, playing every iteration in every way and now eager to go back and redo it for the good side (yeah, played bad the first time on both games XD) as well as to acquire every single trophy and platinum this epic game, I found this video to be quite entertaining, and it gave a good overhead of the story that was so stunningly narrated that it makes the story I once called just "good" seem far more amazing. Great work here, Greg, and anyone else involved with this video over at IGN.
Oh, and I especially love the way it ended. Just a little down that I am not an owner of the PS4 (yet) :( Gotta wait till the summer when I start my job.
I never played the first infamous but I did play part two and this review cleared up what I thought happened in the first one, plus this was an excellent review; can't wait for second son!!
3 more days than the wait is over!!!!!
I already have a boner...
Wait but he forgot the lightning strike at the end...
Sucker Punch confirmed that Cole won't be in the new game.. :( So I guess Greg didn't include it in the video because of that
Reliving the story through this video gave me chills, loved the first 2, can't wait for Second Son!
Greg's Infamous Campaign in 5 Minutes
One of my favorite series :D
Im glad IGN made this video I never played Infamous2 so I was so like what when I found out john was the beast. I also hope Infamous SS is reviewed by Greg Miller because the fact that he really cares about the story AND PLEASE IGN DONT SPOIL ANY OF THE OTHER POWERS IN INFAMOUS SS.... I have to wait til may to get my PS4 :(
It's nice that you guys told the good story that leads into infamous second son
This video actually made me realize just how complicated these games are, I love them
The next INFAMOUS game should be a continuation of the evil ending of inFAMOUS 2 where we play as Cole using the Beast's powers and we have an army of conduits
This would be awesome to see
@NebulaInTokyo just because it's not Canon doesn't mean it won't happen
Just look at Marvel's What If
now do infamous evil in 5 minuts
evil is non-cannon
Liamjm The start of 2nd game is neutral to whatever path was taken in the 1st game. The ending of 2nd game as evil is everything you saw in the video except at the end Cole basically becomes the Beast and all the humans are wiped out.
Oh and you kill *** and are forced to also kill **** on your path to the dark side. Really good ending that was worth playing through again. The last bit of the game is very different mission/emotions than the good play through.
no its not,,, their are 2 defferent after coutcene scenes in the first game :)
InFamous side story Spoiler Alert!!! WATCH AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!! I WARNED YOU!!!!
its not called infamous evil. its just the infamous side, they played the hero side. in InFamous 2 Cole kills Zeke and Nix, the beast can't fight anymore and gives Cole his powers. Cole will have to clense the plague and reveal the conduit gene from the people who lived.
u forgot that cole has made empire city hes playground just like he says in the after scene credit in infamous 1 but thx anyway
This video brought back memories of playing my favorite video game series. This was literally my childhood
Thank you ps now for having all of the infamous games. Such an underrated franchise
Holy crap.. I didn't expect that inFamous had such a good storyline..
Only played and beat the 1st game.. now I really gotta get Second Son!
Marvel&Co all things marvel,doctor who and more! 🤣🤣🤣
Good job Greg! I love your narration!
This is the best unintentional superhero story I've ever heard.
Loved this thanks greg for catching me up. I played the first game when I was young and didn't retain any of the lore and never played iNFAMOUS 2.
Aw man , my brother sold his ps3 so i never got to finish any infamous , i got almost to the end of the first one. This video was great for setting me up for Second Son.
Now , I only need to buy the ps4 :(
You're fucked bro Lollllll but I hope you get one.
joebryant11 I must get my hands on a sweet sweet ps4. My holy gaming trinity will be soon complete. :P
This was excellent!
An awesome summary to help my story understanding for one of my favourite games series
Dat background music tho. I need to know what it is!! O_O
Wow, great video. Haven't re-played the first two so this was a great refresher. Thank you!
Been a while since I've played an Infamous game. Thanks IGN for the recap!
i just watched this high and i think i'm a conduit✋😳
That is a dope recap
Thanks man. Helped a lot. I finished Infamous 1 but I never played two. Just ordered second son but didn't know the story line. Thanks again!
Thanks for this I've never played infamous properly until Second Son and now the story makes sense to me!
they really dumbed down second sons story
But it is still an awesome game (my Favorite game so far!)
I think this video was released before Second Son was, they just used the trailer.
+Ian Gallagher He meant the actual story wasnt up to standards
***** Pretty sure it was in reference to the fact that there was only like 3 seconds of footage.
I played that whole game, and the story was pretty bland compared to what I heard the old infamous games had
I never played inFamous but that was due to my only owning a 360. (i've been all xbox since it first released up until now). I always wanted to play though and this video really helps me understand what the hell is going on in the game. 3/21/14 can't wait!
"A World that needs a new hero" OH MY GOD THAT PHRASE WAS SO EPIIC
I like how The DUP and The Militia are both anti-conduit forces, that are ironically ruled by a conduit.
Panic!ed Pilots yeah and the dup are instilled with powers even though they aren't conduits
Still waiting for mention of a new inFAMOUS that's a continuation of the infamous ending in I2.. More Cole AND more powers.. hell yes.
***** I always thought that would have made a great prequel, tell the story of the how the original Cole went off the deep end and turned into a villain. The only down side is that there would be no reason for the morality system because, being a prequel, we already know how its going to end so it wouldn't make sense to allow you to be good or bad. Or at the very least, make into a comic book mini series or something (preferably by Dark Horse.
***** true but I think it's already quite clear that he did it out of guilt over his family because it wasn't until they died that he made the decision to go back in time.
CosmicBudman That is more likely, and if you got to play as zeke my life would be complete.
It makes me happy to see fellow infamous fans. :D
CosmicBudman I want a game about Zeke getting powers.
InFamous is my favorite video game, which is weird, because I'm a girl, usually tend to like trending games, and only play online community games owo
Faewulf This Game is great!
Faewulf I think the original was what helped the ps3 live on for some people, since gta4 was definitely not the reason it passed, and since most hero/shooter games were trashy and just copied each other.
I've been putting off infamous series for years due to me playing uncharted,resistance,killzone,god of war,etc.. but I'm finally playing infamous and so far I'm loving it. It's a lot of fun and refreshig
I love this series and am super pumped for Second Son, I'm actually taking a half day on Friday to play it.
1st game had the better story 2nd much better gameplay hopefully second son will be a mixture of the two
The 2nd to me have much better world
BroKenPROgaMeR Agreed
True but nothing groundbreaking. Second son is actually based on a real place Seattle in the US it looks very nice
Thanks, decided to get a ps4 too and get infamous second son.
I got a PS4 because of second son a few days ago. It was well worth it. It's a really short game though, but other than that the story's good, gameplay is amazing and not even to mention how epic the graphics are. The game was worth every cent, I'm still playing side missions, and I might play it again for evil karma.
TCTNGaming the fact that infamous second son's graphics really showed how powerful the ps4 is, kinda dissapoints me because it might not take very long to reach the ps4's peak
I don't really think that, because games will get optimized better as time goes, developpers will find ways to make games look better with worse hardware, I mean look at infamous one and compare it to some of the latest PS3 games like last of us. I hope that's going to be the same with the PS4
Yeah, that's a really good explaination
Actually no o.O the FPS only dropped ones when I did the neon blast thing and there was just too much stuff going on on the screen but other than that works perfectly.
I am THE biggest fan of the infamous series. Like holy shit I can't even describe my shaking excitement.
I can't wait for Friday!
thx for that, i got to save some cash on that game.
I frikin love this series SOOOOOO much
The good ending to inFamous 2 was so saddening. Especially with the soundtrack included to commemorate his sacrifices.
its like someone is cutting onions everytime the last cutscene plays
If Kessler is Cole from the future and he had (or tried to save his wife Trish ) and his two kids you guys don't think that those two(or one of those two)kids could've been Delsin do you? I mean think about it
+Adam Turner Except in Kessler's timeline Trish was his wife, but in Cole's timeline Trish died
Wait, if Kessler's entire motive was to give Cole his powers early and get him ready to fight the beast and save everyone (including Trish) then why did he kill her in the first game? isn't that undermining everything he worked for in the first place?
I believe because trish was probably a motivating factor not to fight the beast, but of course she is killed by the beast anyway, so if Kesler went back in time and killed trish, I wouldnt make that much of a difference, and also if she were alive then she would have been a distraction.
Kessler's motivation wasn't to save Trish, but to mold Cole into someone that would put defeating the Beast as higher priority over saving his family.
cusman78 Alright thanks I was confused about that part
***** Kessler was the most interesting part of inFamous 1 and 2, in my opinion, maybe the next inFamous could be an alternate timeline Kessler game. Now that would be cool.
James Wiebe There was no Kessler in inFAMOUS 2. Just John White, Zeke, and Cole went from first game to 2nd game. Even Moira (or whatever her real name is) was never heard from again after first game.
Watching this really makes me want to replay the first 2 games again.
I can't wait I absolutely love this series it's going to be great
Plz can u odd this for the mgs series
They'd need way more than 5 minutes to explain a story that convoluted.
MGS4 itself needs 5 minutes !
rouzbeh ba amen!
Eric Tyler just for the intro.
Need to do a bad story version
But the bad version isn't canon.
Yeah but it's interesting to watch
brunothealmighty28 I'm sorry if I sound stupid by saying this but what does canon mean?
It may be 2019 but after watching this video again it's making me want to turn on my PS3 again just play all of Infamous again. It was that fantastic of a game
Great video, I needed a recap.
On both IGN's youtube channel and site, the comment section is just fucking shit. Seriously IGN, can you maybe ban some people? Can't go to a Sony exclusive game's video without Xbox fanboys hating, can't watch something about a Xbox exclusive game video without PS fanboys hating. Seriously, do something!
Why would they, when they profit from it all ?
BattleT
Block those people. They don't profit from comments, but from ads.
M2ovies People = ad views.
just ignore them
It works both ways bro. Go on an xbox video and you will see the same shit. Just got to ignore it and think about how much higher of an IQ you have.
So Cole has time travelling powers ? WTF
it does fall within the parameters of modern physics, considering that conduits can control specific matter and energy and time is just a bi-product of matter and energy.
