Great sequel!!

I enjoyed the 2nd installment of inFAMOUS much on the Hero storyline and will probably rent it again in the future to complete the game on the inFamous storyline. I liked the different variations they added to your attacks, such as the Bolt Stream, different types of rockets and the various ice attacks. It was seamless to switch between attacks during gameplay and made it easy to use different strategies against different opponents. All in all, excellent game for those who enjoyed playing the 1st inFAMOUS.

Better than the first!

I loved the first, so I knew that I was going to love this one as well, but I didn't think I would as much.
Infamous 2, in my opinion, is the better than the first for many reasons: graphics, gameplay, powers, mixed powers, story.
I liked the story a little better, and the end has a good twist and also is a big shocker.
The graphics improved quite a bit, still not great but this gameplay is too good that the graphics don't matter much.
There are many new powers, and also the ability to mix powers with the other NPC's, whether you are good or evil, and you also get to choose which kind of power you want in certain situations in combat, and it's very easy to do so.
What is also cool about this game is the user generated content missions. Now you can pretty much have unlimited side missions to do because of the ability to create your own levels. Some levels people have created are pretty creative and fun!
I recommend this game, I love this series and have platinumed both games. Definitely worth a buy in my opinion.

Intresting

Infamous 1 was a game that took some skills to play. It had an intriguing storyline with some good dialogue. Infamous 2 only surpasses what its predecessor had done. There is more humor in Infamous 2. The graphics were quite brilliant, albeit they took some while to get used to when your used to the graphics in Infamous 1. At first hearing Cole's voice being less guttural is strange but now I find that I like it much more. Some of the enemies are frustrating to go up against but if you know how to do it just right they have their weaknesses. In Infamous 1 I would say that being evil was quite a bit more fun, but Infamous 2 makes being evil almost a chore for me. With the add in of some of the improved and new abilities I find it to be extremely fun. I just wish there could be an Infamous 3.

I don't like games that tell me how to play. this being a move only doesn't help any. I was at the beginning and I couldn't' figure out where the stupid thing wanted me to go. doesn't' help that I cant' afford a stupid HD TV so I can't read the print on the screen. When I couldn't' use the standard controller. I gave up and am returning this turkey to game fly. Word to the developers. Leave a controller option for future games.

This game is packed with all sort of crazy action and fun addictive missions. This game continues from the Infamous story, and just amplifies the first game. Has hours of gameplay. Hundredsnof different things you can do. Just awesome

After playing the first inFamous, all I could keep thinking about was what they could possibly do with a 2nd entry. I also wasn't sure if there was any possible way that they could improve on everything that was in the first title. I am happy to admit that I was wrong.

After investing some hands on time with this game, I can say with total honesty that Sucker Punch actually DID make this game better than the first. The controls are the same, but somehow seems a little easier. Graphically, it still looks amazing. The fighting system is also just as captivating as it was in its predecessor. But the storyline is where it makes it worth the purchase. Playing through this storyline seems so much more in depth and involved than it was in number 1. There are plenty of main story missions to keep you busy, and just as many, if not more, side missions to accompany. And with the UGC added into this one, it opens this game up to have almost unlimited replay value.

All in all, any ps3 owner that enjoys the action/RPG genre would be a fool not to pick this title up. Anyone that wants to doubt, throw this into your gameQ and patiently wait for it to arrive. You'll be just as amazed as I was with it.

A Game worth playing !

After playing the first Infamous my first thought was that i needed to play the second. Cole`s trademark acrobatic moves help well in exploring New Marais. Sucker Punch Production`s games are known for their compellling story and voice acting. The game starts off with a " Bang " with an enemy called The Beast , Cole loses the fight. His quest for power lies in a brand new city called New Marais. Gamplay is tweaked a little with a new weapon called the Amp. New powers are introduced in the game . You still have the choice to be a Hero or Villian but your choice affects Cole`s appearance sets of powers and missions. The only problem I experienced in the game is the wonky camera when i use the Amp , but its not that bad . This game is a must get exclusive for PS3.

I Love it I just love it - Gaothemon

I'm normally a pretty tough guy I like punching things, lifting weights, working on my PWI account. There are just somethings in the world that can almost make a man cry. (((((Spoiler Alert))))) The ending was just so good and so sad at the same time it was like I really loss a friend when Cole sacrificed himself and all of the other conducts to stop the beast and cure the plague for all of humanity to live. I'm only like playing the good side so I don't no much about it. Actually I did play evil for a little while and I think the Evil exclusives are not really good especially the weird phoenix-dive-thing. The story of the good side was just so fun and engaging, the world looked great the boss fights where epic and the characters are much more of improvement in this one compared to the last. Talking about improvement I really liked how the combat still stayed true to what we know it was like slipping on a pair of nice socks. The Hero exclusives are awesome the really use Ice Launch power is really use for getting around and the it rockets is really the only thing that I fought with after I got that power. And use the Ice Blast or (what I like to call the Blizzard Blaster, try to catch that reverence hint digimon) a lot it will do tons of damage to enemies even on hard difficulty Word of advice for Heroes never stand in one place and rely your ice shield power it is not that great. You really need to hand it to sucker punch, they are pretty underrated but they know how to make a game. Not like some companies out the(Cough-EA-cough, cough) I'm just really like how they know how to put on a show. I just really can't any complaints I have beside the big one. Moral choice systems are dumb. They should let just choose in the beginning to be a Villain or a Hero. Then again that would take the fun and suspense out of the game. I give this game a 10-out of 10 with the HARDCORE MEDAL AWESOMENESS Keep at it Sucker Punch. This Gaothemon keep on gaming

When I played inFamous 2 for the first time, I was truly intrigued by Cole's character. He is a witty, mid-20's punk who does what he wants when he wants. But as the story progresses, you get choices. Choices like either killing hundreds of people to make the mission easier, or sparing their lives and risking your own. Based on which you choose gives you different abilities and the love or hate of the city. It isn't as epic as the first one, and not nearly as long. But with new power, and a ton of fun characters, inFamous 2 is a must play.

Infamous 2 In All Was A Exellent Game. Proper Mechanics With A Sense Of Just Being That Superpowered Ex Package Boy Cole Macgrath Graphics Were Superb And With The New R2 Power Button And The New Fire And Ice Powers From Kuo And Nix. In All Sucker Punch Made One Of The Best Games Ever

Never played infamous 1

So this review comes from someone new to the series. I must say this game is lacking and just not very good. I found myslef just wanting to finish the game because I was in to deep to not beat it but the journey was not rewarding. Very weak storyline with alot of things not exlained in detail.Traversing the city is not fun. You don't have means to move around fast enough except gliding on power wires that are limited in area coverage. To even get to wires you must climb buildings which is a slow process in its self and is nowhere near as smooth as platforming and building scaling as assasins creed for example.

The game isnt very long which is good. I bypassed most side missions because they are not fulfilling.They are basic and offer nothing to the player such as items or skills but just xp points and maybe a karma boost whther positive or negative. The xp setup is faulty and lacking and the upgrades don't present any real quality to the game. You never feel like the God you should be unless toiling with pedestrians. You also take damage to easily. I'm really suprised this game has such high reviews it really is filler based and has no substance what so ever.

Fun game, but wouldn't buy

posted by RMKelly (HOUSTON, TX) Jun 29, 2012

Member since Jun 2012

I got this game for the story because I enjoyed the story in the original. inFAMOUS 2 took me about two days to beat playing as a good guy, doing a hefty amount of side missions and getting quite a bit of blast shards that you can collect to expand your energy pool.

The gameplay is repetitive and a lot of the special enemies have obnoxious knockback attacks which can stun lock you and screw with your camera angles. Despite this though, it is better polished than the first game, and there are a lot of cool, crazy powers you have in your arsenal.

The story was fun; although, not quite as exciting as the first one. The dialogue was cheesy, filled with cliches, and besides Zeke, there weren't any characters I really cared about. I really did want to fight The Beast though, so it kept me sucked in just for that final showdown.

It's worth renting to play it through. You can probably clear everything there is to do within 40-60 hours. It's not a game I'd buy, and I'll probably never care to play it again now that I've beaten it and know what happens.

It was good enough to let me hope for an Infamous 3!
