Infamous: Second Son(for PS4)

When there exist a handful of individuals with extraordinary powers in the world, people would obviously hate and hunt them down. However, these individuals don’t exactly go down that easy. Infamous: Second Son is a single-player action-adventure game for the PS4 console that is set in Seattle, Washington, USA. Starting seven years after the events that happened at the end of Infamous 2 where Cole McGrath switched on the Ray Field Inhibitor to destroy John White, a Conduit (superhumans who can channel incredible powers). Though it was thought that all Conduits had been killed after the explosion, a few who were outside the blast radius and those with a natural resistance had survived. Fearing the abilities of the Conduits, the Department of Unified Protection (DUP) was established to monitor Conduit activity and to quell the bio-terrorists as the DUP call them. In this game that has been given a rating of 18 by PEGI, the player controls Delsin Rowe, a 25-year-old graffiti artist who doesn’t have any real ambitions in life. After coming in contact with a Conduit when trying to help during a bus accident, Delsin’s dormant Conduit abilities were awakened. He now, with the help of his new skills and his elder brother (a police officer), aims to bring down the DUP and other Conduits. Featuring an open world environment, the player can decide to move around and do as he or she pleases. Delsin holds a chain wrapped around his arm which is the primary melee weapon. The chain can be used in conjunction with some of his special abilities too. Parkour is still a central element in this game, hence you can jump up walls, automatically get a hold of ledges and thrust yourself upwards with your powers, and even dematerialize into a smog-like form to move around and become tangible again briefly after. You can also make use of some features that are exclusive to the DualShock 4 controller that enhance gameplay, such as the new built-in speaker and the Touchpad. Multiple power sets are available in this game, like smoke and neon; while the former makes the game more fast-paced, the latter makes it slower and is a more precise means of playing. While the smoke power lets you morph into a gaseous form so you can travel through air vents, the neon power lets you scale walls very quickly.
