INFAMOUS 2 VIDEO GAME REVIEW OF THE WEEK

600full-infamous-2-cover

 

 

 

 

 

This was the game that everyone was looking forward to as the last game ended on a massive cliff hanger which was a major step in video gaming history. At least it was for me.

Now I can’t go into too much detail about this story as I do not want to spoil any major plot developments for both this game and the first game. Both of these stories are very tightly linked together. The first game was only a set up for what was to come.

After the event in Empire City, Cole McGrath now knows the bigger role he has to play. A fearful enemy known only as ‘The Beast’ is coming. It will arrive to destroy everything in its wake including Cole and Empire City. But only Cole has the abilities to defeat this gigantic foe… But not just yet. As powerful as he is, he is nowhere near ready to ultimately destroy The Beast.

To do this, he must travel to the City of New Marais to find a man by the name of Dr. Wolfe who tells Cole that the only way he can amplify his powers is through these so called ‘Blast Cores’. Much like the first game, Cole discovers a horrible truth and realisation of what he must do as the plot thickens though many twists and turns that will shock all fans of InFamous.

 

Once again the game play is almost the same as before. You can free roam, collect blast shards to improve your charge bar, complete optional missions to earn experience and Karma, unlock new powers along with some added extra features on the map. Like before you can choose whether you want to be hero or infamous and that every decision you make contributes to the way your appearance, powers and environment changes. The most intriguing any may I say most inventive part of the game play is that you can swap between powers using a new ‘slot’ system which allows you pick any power from the 20 or so more variety of powers you unlock without interrupting the game play. You don’t get shot while you are busy deciding what power to choose. With this system you get to keep all the powers you unlocked in the first game plus unlock new and extraordinary abilities.

 

The Graphics are the same as before except more enhanced as the video gaming consol’s technology is improved as each year goes by. Very colourful and a mass amount of detail is put into the entire game.

 

The music is even more epic that the last game. Below is an example of what music has been placed in the game.

The Beast

 

So in all I was very pleased with this story. Not many games can pull off what these did. To me InFamous and InFamous 2 are not to be seen as individual games but 1 big story like Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 and 2 (just as an example).

These 2 games are ultimately the best games I have ever played and in my opinion the best games of all time.

That’s why I rate InFamous 2 10/10.

But I give both games as a whole 11/10 (a bit of a cheat but whose counting?)
