**** Official Infamous: Second Son ****

I've read 4 now and they are all 'good' reviews, the negative points are valid but ultimately I feel anyone who liked the others are going to have no issues and it will be enjoyable for newbies as well. Destructoid gave it the most flattering review so far.

If you're pre-ordering at Amazon that's the problem!

Most other places, Gameseek, Shopto, Simply Games, The Game Collection etc will get it to you the day before.
 
Don't think I'll rush out to buy this any more after the reviews.

I'll just play the first two then pick this up on the cheap.
 
Think I've still got the first one to play after I got it free from a few years back when the PSN was down for what seemed like forever (possibly after the hack-attack) and Sony gave everyone a couple of games for free.

Also god damn the IGN comments are lighting up (as usual). So many titan-fags in there it's unreal
 
Placed my pre-order on the US PSN Store. Should come out around £37 I think. Thought it was actually released today, but I'll have to wait until tomorrow afternoon to queue up the download!
 
Does any of the storyline carry on from the previous games, or is it a fresh start? I played some of the first one I think, not played the second one but this looks interesting so I'm quite tempted by it.
 
It says it basically carries on after I2 good ending, but I don't think it would even matter if you'd not played it,
 
Respectable reviews going on, some like it more then others, guess it'd be in the 8s. not bad, nit bad pre order not cancelled lol too late anyhow it's despatched will be here hopefully tomorrow
 
My only complaint so far is the lack of dynamicness to the environments. You feel a bit floaty around as nothing really reacts to you. Puddles do not slash when you walk through and bushes do not move either. Makes it feel a little disconected.

Other than that it seems like more of the same infamous which is no bad thing.

edit: derp, misread. Apparently the Eurogamer review spoils infamous 2 if you've not played that yet and plan on playing it.
