    Conduit powers were never explicitly stated to be elemental. In the first one you dealt with a girl who made black sludge, in second one you dealt with a guy who used biological transformations.

    You know, even when I completely disagree with Yahtzee, I still enjoy him.

    I wonder if Yahtzees next weeks video on escapist will contain the words "I am surprised that my fan base is ready and willing to invade Poland, if I ask"

    "These days saying the word 'terrorist' to americans is like uttering the word 'dindins' at a dog pound" So bloody true it's scary.

    I agree with Yahtzee on pretty much everything here, but I want to point out that a game can avoid a lot of criticisms by being a bloody fun game about shooting fireworks out of your hands.

    I think I know why both conduits and hoomins are still alive, because in the middle of his hoomin/conduit extermination Cole remembered "OH SHIT, I still have to go back in time to fuck with myself!" and then just left his killing side mildly genocided.

    The biggest problem with Second Son is that it didn't have enough karma choices (the ones in the storyline not the ones around town) since there was pretty much one per character then you do a few missions with them and then you move on to the next character before you get to know them. For example, near the start of the game where there's that bus and you don't go on because the people were afraid of you it was pretty much begging for a karma choice there. Also while Second Son had about 25 missions inFAMOUS 1 had 40. I still liked romping through Seattle though.

    Yeah I am a huge fan of Infamous 1 and 2. Second Son was a blast to play but the story was EXTREMELY lacking...which is my favorite thing in the previous Infamous games...

    Am I the only one that considers this as a great game? Just as good as Infamous 2, if not better.

    Smoke and concrete are passable, but what is neon and video doing here as powers, anyway? It's bothered me since release. How does one make a weapon out of TV signals? "Look out, he's firing reruns of Friends at us! Take cover, he's launching a volley of The Walking Dead! Oh no, he's pulling out the Disney Channel! Flee for your lives!"

    'if in doubt reduce gameplay, boost graphics" yeah, thats basically the way to sum up far too many 'next gen' games these days :/

    A bunch of obnoxious rich-kid teenagers try to act like they're cool, introspective renegades whilst dressing like shit, spouting lines like, "This is our generation," or "It's time to make a stand."

    I wouldn't say the character development is THAT bad. I, for one, liked Reggie and Delsin's relationship.

    So we're all clear on what we must do right? A little pre-WWII annexation is good for the legs I hear.

    I actually liked this game. This actually the game that got me to try the other infamous games.

    Had a weaker and shorter story than previous entries but the gameplay itself was better. Graphically it was gorgeous.
