inFamous Second Son and Titanfall are both very good games
I don't agree that a late embargo means that it is a bad game, but I don't see what there is to gain from it unless it is bad
If it's good, you get more word of mouth sales, something that both of these games would benefit from.
Part of it is Sony's new found (ND inspired I think) fear of spoilers. I agree with them (I haven't read any inFamous reviews), but maybe this is taking it too far
