Infamous Second Son has gone gold

Shame we are waiting another month for it.

My PS4 only plays FIFA these days.

Looking forward to it though. I'm not experienced in the series, but I've read good things about the previous two.

That’s really disappointing :/

Static time makes the game more boring.

Hmmm. I did not know this. Still does not change my mind about buying it (as long as reviews seem solid), but for some reason, I thought it was suppose to have dynamic lighting and changes from one to another as you play.
 
I am not sure if you are being sarcastic but I like the way the InFamous games does it.

I did ask Sony EU if the game has it so my question might get answer this week.
99% of d/n cycles are terribly done with lighting that does nothing but make things more difficult to see.

In this case you still get 8 different TODs though, so a d/c cycle exists. It's just narratively set and will not advance on its own.

I mean that guy did say there are exceptions to the narratively defined TOD, so maybe the post-game has regular TOD transitions instead of being locked?
 
Are we ever going to see the day where games go digital right after they go gold?

Nope. Not for a while. They have to consider retailers and that is a big deal. In the future, when it all goes digital, I could see that happening. Only good thing about a game going gold and release date it gives time to fix things that they probably did not catch.
 
Once this is out my most anticipated game slot moves undebateably to Gravity Rush 2. My hype for this is bonkers. Reviews? GAF impressions? Live streams? Shu sales celebration tweets? No.

Day 1.

Agreed. I prefer that the developers use the time of day to suit the gameplay/mission/mood as they see fit, and optimize it for the intended experience.
Never knew you guys felt strongly about this heh.

I dont mind either way though ,the InFamous games always set the right mood.

day/night always set the mood of the game if done properly. i'm okay with it if it's like an open world game.

GTAV allowed the time to change when you enter a certain mission.
 
No day/night sounds... weird to me.

What happens after you beat the game? Is it forever night or day?

Sounds like something that could be patched in... or make it like Pokemon where day/night literally depends on your real-life time.


Infamous 2 chose with every load randomly a day time setting (i think that game 6 or 7 different lighting settings).

I liked that solution.

The frist game always stayed with a bluish setting when being played as a good guy, and redish when being played as a bad guy.
 
This is the PS4 system seller for me.

Where's my bundle, sony???

Can't fucking wait for this. Congrats to all the SPP folks :)

only Infamous bundle I've seen sadly is some crap one from Gamestop that forces you buy other crap just to get a simple PS4 with Infamous

Yup sounds like cutscene--> cue time of day change--> emerge from rooftop--> begin gameplay.

Well hopefully reviews roll out soon and I get to see the rest of those powers and if there were improvements to the audio.
 
KK gone gold.

Here's hoping there's more to this game than what has been shown.

Hope gaf can keep a cool head come review time (who am I kidding)
 
Who would think we would be playing Infamous before Driveclub let alone not having a clue of when it will be released.

Ha, or Watch Dogs for that matter. I thought for sure those titles would tide me over until this release. Glad ACIV and some Wii U titles ended up being gems.

I'm honestly more concerned for Watch_Dogs at this point. If DC was held up for VR, that at least makes sense, but WD is completely MIA

Nothing from what we have seen would lead me to believe the performance is that good.

Anyway back to SS, best of luck to Sucker Punch on the coming launch. I think they are in an unenviable position with a lot riding on the success of the game.
 
Since Sony hasn't announced a bundle it looks like Gamestop went ahead and made their own

http://www.gamestop.com/ps4/consoles/playstation-4-infamous-second-son-bundle/113945

For the low price of $570. Also includes a year of Plus and an additional controller (because that's very important to SS).
You have to wonder why.

Instantly tops #1 spot. Yet Sony and their marketing as usual have their heads so far up their asses. This is the second biggest first party game of the year, I have no idea why they're not throwing money at marketing to make it a big deal. I know it shouldn't, but Sony's tendency to be absolutely shit at marketing really irritates the hell out of me, especially with the way they handle their first/second party games outside of NG, SSM & PD.

I'm in day 1 and expect this game to sell really well, as my estimation is around 3-4+ millions. It's just irritating seeing Sony as usual fumble the ball like Barthez is playing on net when it comes to marketing.

They've been on the ball for the general message and getting that across, but they still can't take care of their own games for shit. inFamous, Watch_Dogs, Destiny and The Order is it's not on the same month as Destiny, should all be bundled and advertised heavily on the Sony platforms this year. Sorry for the rant, it just really irritates me how they handle their own gems a lot of the time. :(
