haven't finished my first (play through) yet, but I more or less agree with the OP.

Funny little glitch of sorts. In this one mission, that people who've played know about where you are theoretically forced to use neon powers because you run out of smoke, my son completed the combat using only smoke powers, but of course the cut scene was exactly the same.

I would say in many respects the talent as Sucker punch is pretty high, but with a bit more creativity and time the game could have been amazing. More variation between good Delsin and evil Delsin (my son is playing evil and most dialogue is exactly the same). More varied side missions.

Love this game so far.

Ya, it happens when there are cutscenes in the story. For some reason, the game defaults to a particular power no matter what you have equiped. Another example is when delsin used the smoke drop attack in a cutscene even though I had neon equiped. It was a bit weird when that happens.

I just bought my copy from amazon, it was on sale at $53 instead of $69. Can't wait to try it.

I bought PS4 for inFamous, and I don't regret it one bit. But I also now have PSN+ and got Bioshock Infinite, Tomb Raider and Bordelands 2...and LBP Karting... for free for PS3, so I have plenty of "free" gaming to get through before I need to start worring about where my next PS4 game is going to come from. Not interested in Dead Nation for PS4 free on PSN+ so I'm hoping the free PSN+ games for PS4 are better in subsequent months, albeit they will only be PSN games for a wee while. I might get Shadowfall if/when it comes up on PSN+ for free.

I also have RDR to finish on PS3 while I await more PS4 games.
