Infamous: Second Son |OT| Smells Like Beanie Spirit

I went through a terribly cringe-worthy beanie wearing period when I was 17/18.

I'm sure this game will bring back repressed memories and I shall weep and curse my younger self as I surf along rails and shoot neon out of my fingers.

Amazing OT. That Cerny Fragrance bottle made me laugh.

EDIT: Just read the Nate Fox part. OP, you are the best.

You will get a beanie whether you like it or not!

You are the fucking man

I usually spoil every piece of media for myself before I enjoy it just out of policy. For some reason, this one particular time, I haven't totally. I think I've read two secret powers semi-accidentally, but I'm not absolutely sure about one of them and I bet there's probably more than I what I've read.

I still know almost nothing of the story and I'm pretty stoked for that.

I'm not sure if I like or dislike the GAF magazine approach. I like that the OP doesn't read like it was paid by the publisher but, it just feels... meh. :p

Second Son will be the first game I've bought since launch!

I'm not sold on the game at all. I predict a 79 Metacritic score.

I'd love te be proven wrong though.

I'll throw in my prediction of 85. I think it will look and play great but won't be anything revolutionary.

Still extremely excited though. I feel like it's my first real next gen game.

These Metacritic posts make me laugh every time. There are a lot of games that aren't very high on Metacritic but are still fantastic games. Stop using Metacritic as a metric for quality.

Agreed. It's one persons opinion. The only people scores benefit are the websites that get hits from them. They aren't a great metric for understanding how good a game is. If you really want to know how good a game is, read the words, not the score.

As someone who didn't care for the previous Infamous games, I'm super hyped for this. I know Sucker Punch makes great games from the Sly games (which I loved), just couldn't get into Infamous 1/2, the characters, story, and bland/drab world did nothing for me. It's surpassing how compelling the new one looks to me, I even like the beanie wearing douchebag Delsin. Can't wait for friday.
 
Even though I found InFamous 2 lacking I'm pretty hyped for this. I really, really hope that standard attacks don't run out of power anymore like I2.

As far as I can tell, powers slowly regenerate (though that could just be a preview demo thing).

At the very least, dash is always free so you can always dash to a resource and drain it.

Those two kinda fake, you are save.

Man, I don't know whether to be happy or sad. The two I read were kind of mind-blowing to think of as "Super powers". I really love how they turn shit like "Smoke" and "Neon" into super powers.That's pretty innovative, in my book.

The new power will make up for it, don't worry.

Don't worry the 3rd power is beyond awesome.

Wow,very impressive work for a parody mag! :)

I was wondering if this was a real mag for a second (before reading any of it mind you) and I came up with a real GAFF magazine.
This blows that out of the water though. Hehe

Nice OT. Going to take a break from Dark Souls when I get my hands on this. That, plus Titanfall has already made my year.

I'm curious to see where the story goes. Having played through the original Infamous just under a month or so ago it will be crazy to see the jump in graphics.
