[PS4] [PS4] inFAMOUS: Second Son

Een inFamous 3 + een remaster van deel 1 en 2 zou top zijn.

De franchise heeft in ieder geval voldoende potentie.

Daarnaast scoren alle delen een 8 of hoger op metacritic. Dus het zijn ook gewoon topgames.

Kan me nog herinneren dat ik voor de release van deel 1 keihard aan het twijfelen was tussen Prototype 1 en inFamous 1. Zijn vergelijkbare games en kwamen rond dezelfde periode uit !!!

Achteraf toch blij dat ik voor inFamous 1 had gekozen, Prototype heb ik 7 jaren later nog steeds niet gespeeld.

Enige minpunt van Second Son was dat het verhaal nergens op sloeg en dat het erg repetitief werd.

Daarom is het net geen 9/10 game geworden.

 

ik vond al de infamous delen super alleen zoals zoveel games doen laatste tijd raar dat ze dan ineens het maine character verandere echt zonde

 

Thanks. Toch maar eens aanschaffen.

 

Infamous: First Light & Second Son’s dazzling PS4 Pro enhancements detailed
Sucker Punch returns to its superhero series to add some extra visual sheen
When we started working on PS4 Pro, we knew the inFamous titles were going to be an amazing showcase for HDR and 4K.

If you played either of the titles, you know that inFamous: Second Son and inFamous: First Light were a spectacle of vibrant superpowers and explosions inside a rainy Seattle cityscape.



It all started with Second Son where we first introduced our incredible particle effects as Delsin discovers his own set of powers. Then in First Light (which is still one of my favourite projects we’ve made at Sucker Punch), Fetch had a style all her own, fast and deadly, with incredible neon powers.

With our new patch to take advantage of the PS4 Pro, those effects have never looked better. There are numerous reasons to return to First Light and Second Son with PS4 Pro, but let me dial into the three big ones.



First up is HDR. When we re-worked our engine to create inFamous: Second Son for the PS4, we had a strict focus on realistic lighting and exposure. We wanted the art direction and tech to reflect realism in a way that immersed players in the damp, rainy streets of Seattle. We did a lot of work to ensure our sky, sun and light sources felt like the real thing.

So why is HDR such a big deal now? This patch, along with an HDR capable TV, pushes those crazy bright values even further. Yes, that means looking at the sun or sky in our game feels extremely bright, providing a level of contrast I’ve never seen in our game before. The vibrancy of the sky and lighting creates some really striking and beautiful moments. Furthermore, this particular feature will work on the standard PS4 as long as you have an HDR capable TV.



The second reason is in the smaller details. In both games, the Seattle city streets are filled with incredible art from our hard working art team. Signs, coffee cups, puddles, fall leaves – this world is filled with little touches waiting to be noticed. With PS4 Pro’s increased resolution, those touches are even more crisp. You can see detail on bricks and signs that previously went unnoticed.

When we created the Seattle landscape, we had a goal to make everything wet. That means reflections of those details on every surface. It also meant a fair amount of specular aliasing. The increased resolution improves this and many other alias issues. And if you don’t have a 4K TV, you’ll still see a smoother image as the PS4 Pro will scale down to match your 1080p TV.



The third, and best, reason to revisit the inFamous games on PS4 Pro is simple: the powers look amazing. Delsin’s smoke powers and Fetch’s neon powers are particularly impressive. Watching the original effects now in 4K and HDR, I notice details I didn’t even know existed.

For example, when Fetch does a ground pound, waves of brilliantly flickering particles erupt in all directions. We even improved photo-mode to let you pause on powers. My favourite is winding up Fetch’s ultimate neon bomb and then quickly activating photo-mode to pause and observe the thousands of emissive particles bits forming around her.



As a developer, it’s great to see games that we released two years ago come to life in ways more dazzling than we ever thought they could be. The increased power, resolution, and HDR capabilities of the PS4 Pro breathe new life into every corner of the game. If you’re into lighting, rendering, or VFX, I would encourage you to check it out. Second Son and First Light are beautiful games on the PlayStation 4, but on PS4 Pro, they’re an exciting window into the future.

 

Ooit komt er wel een deftige 4k HDR tv. Maar eerst zal de huidige tv nog een paar jaar mee moeten gaan of kapot gaan

 

Damn kleuren knallen op hdr bij Infamous First Light.

 

Dit.
Supers gaaf, maar de gamewereld erg saai voor mij. Zeer snel repetitief waardoor ik de game niet heb uitgespeeld.

 

Ik vond het wel lekker weg spelen. Deel 2 was de beste tot nu toe imho ...
