Okay, so it isn't an official gameplay trailer and it's sometimes difficult to see.
But as we haven't seen much in the way of actual gameplay for inFamous: Second Son , this is worthwhile. At the very least, fans of the franchise can tell that in fact, yes, this is a very recognizable inFamous .
This comes from Skewed and Reviewed; they got a chance to shoot this footage at the recent 2014 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas. As I said, you can't get an exact idea of the graphics, but you can see the basic movement and a few of Delsin's awesome skills. For more information, check out our preview ; Delsin will have access to a wide variety of abilities and remember, in contrast to his predecessor Cole, Delsin uses smoke to "refuel" as opposed to electricity. The core concept is similar, though.
The game appears to move smoothly and the action is fast and engaging. Second Son is still scheduled to arrive on March 21 and for many new PS4 owners, it's the most anticipated title on the horizon.

Looks amazingly fun! Next gen open world gaming is looking great. The fire graphics are stunning.
Ummm, I guess this is going to sell even more PS4s!! Is it just me or are there a ton X360 gamers coming over to Sony's side? I saw this CES inFAMOUS Second Son game play footage on IGN and there were many, many posts from X360 gamers that have switched over and cannot wait for this game. A lot of them saying things like they cannot wait to catch up on Sony's Exclusives. Seriously, Sony has started a revolution! I have seen this behavior on my sites including Gameinformer as well.
I noticed that too. Maybe they realized that the SONY exclusives are just too good to miss out on. How many times can you hear about how awesome Uncharted is before you want to play it yourself?
I think the evolution of the Internet, and in particular video game footage, is helping SONY a lot. Second Son LOOKS next gen. The Order LOOKS next gen. KZ:SF LOOKS next gen. What's the box XBone exclusive that is also not cross gen? When you focus on cross gen, you can't match the production of games like InFamous: SS, IMO.
Either that or they just want something different. I have a 360, and IMO, that platform was abandoned almost 2 years ago with all focus on the next generation. Maybe, like me, they are worried about a device that is by definition, a media console first and a gaming machine second. Maybe I really can't explain the motivation behind the conversion – but I have observed the phenomenon nonetheless.

There are a bunch more on IGN's PS4 over taking the X360 for 2013 sales. I am actually really surprised that brand loyalty didn't play more of a role. Microsoft must be seriously worried right now.
Looks like they've upped the tempo of the game quite a bit.
IGN is looking for freelance news writers 😉
Thanks for the tip
I hope Infamous never changes, just continues to improve. Love it.
any word on multiplayer?
it'd be fun flying around a city as superheroes fighting each other.
Would also be hectic as hell looking at the gameplay speedup :')
Looks like one hell of a step up from the last infamous games, what a sequel should be! cant wait!
🙂
Hmmm looks like from I can discern from the footage that the effects and such look… really good.
One thing is to remember is its just a segment of the game specifically made for show. Thats not to say anything against it especially since the game is shortly to come out.
The one thing I hope… I hop SP does IT not to reveal tooooo much. Gameplay showings are good, but hopefully they will leave most for the actual launch for the fans. I being one, but unfortunately will have to wait until I get a PS4 sometime in the latter half of the year…. possibly.
SP has not disappointed me so far with their games that I have played. I do not expect them to try and wow me, but I do expect and I know they will be entertaining and fun. The wow factor is bonus.
Keep playing and I envy those who get to play this when it launches! :/
more and more i see of this the more and more i get worried about it.
looks like theve made the problems of 2 even worse.
the whole point of a superhero is to feel like a bad a$$, your powers are suppose to be powerful!
but every trailer they have shown off all the attacks are singular enemy focused, except for the super attacks obviously.
thats what made infamous so much fun, throw a grenade amongst a cluster of enemies and every single one went flying!
hell they even gave you upgrades to make you MORE powerful!
than 2 came along, stripped you of all your powers, then made you gain them back, and when you FINALLY gain them back they feel so much weaker.
please SP, please dont make the same mistake again!
