I had more fun with the inFamous 2 gameplay. Particularly the ways of getting around New Marais. I just love riding the rails and the overhead wires.
I don't like giving any sort of free pass ton the basis of "launch window" for an existing 2 game IP. Sure there are competing priorities, especially the demand to make a game look nextgen. But really some of the core concepts in the franchise should be embedded in each game's DNA. The branching powers tree and karma system really took a hit with Second Son. TBH I preferred First Light in terms of powers development, and I am really glad that First Light got a physical release. I like the tighter concentration on one power set than the progressive redundancy caused by each new power set Delsin obtained through the game. In fact I would really like the next inFamous to use Fetch as the protagonist, with a significant cameo from good or evil Delsin (according to which game save you bring across). And of course perks for Fetch if you have complete First Light.
OT: MGSV wow! But I expect that to disappear from the top 20 fairly quickly, and then reappear in August sime time.
