Is so satisfying for the game From my childhood get the recognition he deserves. Thank out for showing people why I’ve played this game 50 times at this point
@@randallwilliam2869 You're replying to a 2 year old comment...and, there are better places to ask this? Unless this is a troll which, to be honest I can understand. Also, Netflix.
Are you sure the “drain something, shock it, drain it again” Thing is a glitch? It seems more like an exploit the programmers deliberately made a part of gameplay. If it was a glitch, it wouldn’t have been kept for 2.
That's what I'm saying. Cause you're literally recharging it, I'd say. Plus, I like the fact if you aren't near anything to drain or recharge/overload, you can spam at something conductible to drain instead.
I see what you mean, but at the same time, it makes sense. I see it rather resourceful if you know your conductibles. Last resort when you're cornered with lack of power to drain. Least it has happened to me when curiousity struck me on the roof.
@@sawaii8979 it's unintentional, in fact they made bolts cost energy in 2 so you can't just spam all your energy and then re charge and drain something
Yeah, but I kinda play a big campy style in Infamous 2 so when I'm low on energy, I'll spam something conductive and drain it. Mainly the first Infamous felt more intentional tho.
One little thing about the power audio: the sound pitch for some powers changes depending on your karma. For example, the shockwave sound pitch is deeper if you have evil karma than if you have good karma. Just a little detail I’d like to mention.
I remember when I first played the game, and when the “look up/left” thing came up, I straight up, through sheer idiocy, looked down and right. I don’t even play with inverted controls! So through my whole first play through I had inverted controls. My second was I did it right, but it was only on the third one where I actually found out you can change the controls. Boy the screaming fits I had when I had that revelation
I enjoyed your video but I couldn’t understand the need for those music clips that would play every couple minutes. I think it would have been better without them
Yup, it seems like this review saga is going to be well worth the wait. Very insightful, impressively eloquent, even that tongue stays firmly in the cheek when making those dumb jokes. Other than, yeah, you can leave that faux colorism to those performative nazis at the top of the subscriber charts, they're not going to stay successful forever anyway. Regardless, extremely excited for the rest, Zach! Also, if you haven't seen Cthulhu (a film loosely based on Lovecraft's novella The Shadow over Innsmouth, buth with a much more progressive message and themes), it's a very flawed film, but Jason Cottle does a fantastic job at elevating the quality of it (he improvised and consulted on a lot of the dialogue, too) AND proving that him not being able to do the motion capture in the sequel was a big pile of PR bull***t. And you can watch it on its own director's YT channel as well. ua-cam.com/video/soDSk0e9-ok/v-deo.html Good luck with this series!
Thank you so much! I'll have to check that out sometime and it's clear to me that the real reason Jason was replaced in inFAMOUS 2 was because Sucker Punch wanted to take the character and tone in a different direction. Anyways, if I ever get around to making an inFAMOUS 2 review, I'll talk about that then.
@@MadmansKnowledge Yeah man, who really knows, but I imagine Jason wasn't really happy about the changes to the approach and couldn't keep quiet about it, just like on Cthulhu 😄 I mean, Eric Ladin was great even for the more serious parts of inFAMOUS 2, but damn, they missed out. Well, the whole video game, film and TV industry have still been missing out on him, but f**k, what a talented actor. Anyway, thank you, Zach!
I refuse to cosplay until I can make an accurate First Sons uniform. What types of gas masks are used by the First Sons? I haven’t found any that look like theirs.

Wasn’t the Voice Of Survival funded by the First Sons/made a deal with them, and they were the ones who made him slander Cole so much? He keeps saying “I did what you said!” when he’s being attacked, and he’s located in the Historic District
Not that I know of, at least not in the game. Maybe in the comic and I forgot? Or it’s always possible that on all my playthroughs I still managed to miss a few broadcasts.
Madman's Knowledge Well in the final one VoS is yelling “I did what you said”, and it looks/sounds like a military doing it. And then later the TV News person is like “well the government took him down”, and since we know they’re all full of crap, the logical explanation is that he was working with the First Sons and when they didn’t need him anymore they killed him
ngl they had a bit of a shift in mentality when the ps4 came out: like you actually see in their interviews about second son that they were amazed by how beautiful u can make ur graphics, and the demo of ghost of tsushima looks like all they wanted to do was make a pretty game instead of another fun gameplay game. idk about the story yet cos its not out but i wouldnt be surprised if it bombed, only sad :(
It does look nice for sure. Wouldn’t take it home though to me Sucker Punch was always about incredible characters( the lovable yet also serious Sly and Cole) and story but not too interested in Tsushima which is a shame
I was so upset when they replaced Jason Cottle as the voice actor. His gravelly, brooding voice was so much more memorable than the generic one in the sequel.
These are really nicely made videos, however the Taylor Swift clips are way too obnoxious and irritating. I get what you're going for with it, but it's a thing that can get really annoying when overplayed.
Funny thing is people think the tv jacker was just a pawn used by Kessler and the first sons, then when he wasn't needed they took him out in the final broadcast. It all makes sense but hey who knows this game is 13 years old 😂 still goated tho really hope they do try to remake the series n go with the evil Cole ending in the sequel (also black lightning lmaoo)
I don't think the shooting drained objects and draining them is a bug. You're just recharging them with energy. It goes into exploit level because the developers didn't think to make your basic bolt drain any energy so compensate for being able to recharge things. It's clear they realised that in 2 because your basic bolts now drain your energy as well.
To me, the low quality textures give it a comicbook-like feel. This goes even more for inFAMOUS 2, I swear the edges of objects have lines around them that disappear if you look a certain way, it's awesome. This, and the low quality textures just give the game a unique style. I love it.
Yeah the issue is that almost from the get go she is put into conflict with Cole and we don’t see much of what they’re relationship was like until later.
your editing choices suck, I love infamous so I checked your video out and the constant cuts of music is very irritating. I want to hear what you have to say about a game I really like, but every time you throw in some 5 seconds of some song it makes me want to dislike your video.
Honestly I hope sucker punch makes another infamous the first 2 where absolutely awesome I have not played second son yet though and apparently sucker punch renewed the website domain for infamous back in July so maybe they will work on another
It’s not a glitch. That was just his assumption. If can’t be a glitch if everyone was able to do it. And, it’s game mechanic to recharge dead things, like the boxes under the trains and different things for the story. It was intentional
Madman's Knowledge I’m no perfect human either but even I’m able to realize that. Now I know why you don’t get to the Cloud District very often. There’s no pussie allowed.
11:41 is that really a glitch? seems quite weird that someone would code that in the game. i think it makes perfect sense to be able to use your bolts to charge an object. it would feel unrealistic without that.
@@MadmansKnowledge how about we make a compromise you stop playing Taylor Swift because I guarantee 90% of your audience doesn't really want to hear it no offense and all subscribe and pay for your patreon if you have it we have a deal chacho
The suicide bombers used to scare the shit out of me. I remember hearing them for the first time thinking there was a riot happening in my city.
Le Keston Which one scared you more? Transient suicide bomber or Reaper suicide bomber?
Almighty Supreme Leader Weegee The Reaper suicide bomber because it was the first I ever saw.

Brilliant analysis. You're doing a great work. Absolutely enjoying the nostalgia!

Looks kind of like gp--5 with extra filter conencted to the bootton via a tube.
nobody I wish I got a notification. I now see that it looks like a gp5 made of metal. Thank you for this.
Almighty Supreme Leader Weegee I know this is late. But how did your first sons cosplay turn out?
Duane Ashley I simply never did it. However, I still want to do it someday.
Almighty Supreme Leader Weegee well hell if you ever do it please let me know. Would be cool. Take care.
That unlimited energy cheat isnt a glitch. Its meant to be in the game. It works with anything that can be electrocuted, including people.
It works, but I feel like it's unintentional because it disrupts the natural flow of the health system.
Madman's Knowledge it was in 2 though so either the devs are stupid or your wrong
It is a nice city
There never was that one wire I wanted but yeah
Cole Vs Train
And on that one stupid place
Almost as if its a magnet
EXPOSITION MAN
Such as cole never died
I did every side mission Xd
Mmm cancer 1 after my zodiac
KeEp It Up JuSt NeEd A fEw MoRe PiCs
Gotta Dab🔫 on them haters
Only 4
Ur just bad kid git gud
I still need 1 megawatt hammer upgrade
No I need more story "why is Zeke so American "
Lemme look up head shocks on urban dictionary
R.I.P Musty Window
I too see trashmen in my city
But thats not a glitch
Sick dance moves
R.I.P tar face
For graphics in 2009 play A Crack in Time
How gorgeous we speekin about
Looks more like gotham city no really the arkham knight map
But no Subways
Looks like 90 square blocks
So China?
You have to listen to more bands
I want an Ian cameo
"Im the trash man"
I knew you liked that movie
Can I say "Sasha a ---"
All colors are in the rainbow except black
Mmm fried nerve
Can you voice over my life?
Sounds like an average day in my town
But so they smell different
How often do you call people sexy and insane
Pantaloons
I told one of my old teachers one of those quotes I got an A
LEFT
I think im a conduit help
Maybe everything happens and stops when you're in a different area
Chicken Shit
*Cough* South Detriot *Cough*
Cole be like "Better turn the power off then"
Saves city "Kill him"
I thought the civies raided him huh nevermind
Maybe Cole is related to Steve Blume
Git Gud at your Ms paint
I appreciate the detail to your comments. This is a very long video after all. Not always sure what part you’re referencing but I enjoy reading these.
The suiciders screams literally give me goosebumps every time I hear them. Terrifying
You know its funny i'v barley ever seen any glitches in the game
Same
Power to create constructs like green lantern

Maybe
I felt like a whole ass 5head figuring out that you could basically create unlimited energy through shocking objects back when I first played this 💀
I love how unorthodox the music is. Shows creativity
28:25 Coles pants sounds intensifies
This was also amazing
Shadow power??!! 😂😂😂😂😂
11:45 OMG that's a glitch?! I abused the *HELL* out of that!
Mai57 it’s not a glitch
Wait.......
*THE RECHARGABLE DRAIN OBJECTS WAS A GLITCH!? I THOUGHT IT WAS AN EXPLOIT*
Zkyball YT it was an intentional exploit otherwise it wouldn’t be in infamous 2 as well
I just gotta say when you die the music is good idk why I like it but it’s just good
ngl they had a bit of a shift in mentality when the ps4 came out: like you actually see in their interviews about second son that they were amazed by how beautiful u can make ur graphics, and the demo of ghost of tsushima looks like all they wanted to do was make a pretty game instead of another fun gameplay game. idk about the story yet cos its not out but i wouldnt be surprised if it bombed, only sad :(
Ironic. Hopefully GoT is a good game!
It does look nice for sure. Wouldn’t take it home though to me Sucker Punch was always about incredible characters( the lovable yet also serious Sly and Cole) and story but not too interested in Tsushima which is a shame
Who tf disliked this video?!?!?!?!
Someone who has a life and not enough time to watch a nearly three hour long review series.
Or some asshole.
I was so upset when they replaced Jason Cottle as the voice actor. His gravelly, brooding voice was so much more memorable than the generic one in the sequel.
I think Jason Cottle’s voice fits Cole more but i think eric ladin does a really good job
These are really nicely made videos, however the Taylor Swift clips are way too obnoxious and irritating. I get what you're going for with it, but it's a thing that can get really annoying when overplayed.
I agree, every time once of those played I'm pretty sure I died a little. They really hurt the review overall cause they felt so childish
36:04 seeming more realistic than ever
Ironic that I didn’t know how relevant that would be.
Funny thing is people think the tv jacker was just a pawn used by Kessler and the first sons, then when he wasn't needed they took him out in the final broadcast.

Why are there comments from 1 day ago and 6 days ago?
Patreon
Yeah, Patreon supporters and people who won a few contests I did got to see it early.
Contest
Except I never heard back from Wesley and Waleegee e who won a Dark Souls deaths contest thing.
Ohhhhh ok, thank you.
ok, but shadow power would be pretty cool
Yep you could kill people through scaring them with shadows
ZABBAS nah but the movement would be mad
I don't think the shooting drained objects and draining them is a bug. You're just recharging them with energy.
It goes into exploit level because the developers didn't think to make your basic bolt drain any energy so compensate for being able to recharge things.
It's clear they realised that in 2 because your basic bolts now drain your energy as well.
I LOVE the Taylor Swift songs lol
YES! Finally getting more appreciation for that LOL.
9:47 that joke was perfect

Huh, that's a unique way to look at it although I think they were going for a realistic look rather than a stylized one.
Yeah, the game is indeed glitchy. But at least they aren't fully game breaking.
True. They’re mostly just fun to laugh at.
Like some EA games.
We’ve never had a power in inFamous where you can turn invisible
Video: Am I a joke to you?
i'm loving these videos but the Taylor Swift stuff got old fast
2:06 The Dead Drops in the game and DCUO were so interesting to listen to
Just wish they made Trish just a little more likeable.
Even now, her Death has no impact on me whatsoever.
Yeah the issue is that almost from the get go she is put into conflict with Cole and we don’t see much of what they’re relationship was like until later.

We all need more Taylor Swift. I encourage you to stop lying to yourself and embrace the meme.
25:50 *aura conduit
I love the amount of detail you put into these. You do a great job explaining all the subtle details that make this game great
Thank you!
it's funny because the hacker in the game looks just like you
Maybe he is me...
Honestly I hope sucker punch makes another infamous the first 2 where absolutely awesome I have not played second son yet though and apparently sucker punch renewed the website domain for infamous back in July so maybe they will work on another
28:07 Numbah 5?
Fun fact: the first sons were the ones who manipulated voice of survival to slander Cole's name and were the ones to kill him
Hmm. Where’d you find that out?
The infamous wiki page
Boo!
*TAKE DOWN 10XP*
Fun fact, my first videogame ever was a demo of inFAMOUS on a store
What about an actual Fire based power (similar to Human Torch)
Wait the Gigawatt Blades are DLC? I've been playing the game on PSNow and I just thought they were just another neutral power upgrade.
Huh, maybe they come in the PS Now version. I’ve never played it that way.
11:41 That's a glitch? I thought it was intentional.
You could do the same in inFAMOUS 2 as well.
It’s not a glitch. That was just his assumption. If can’t be a glitch if everyone was able to do it. And, it’s game mechanic to recharge dead things, like the boxes under the trains and different things for the story. It was intentional
