Seeing as you're playing as a super hero, Infamous is lighter on questionable content than other similar games. Parents should also keep in mind that, while the game is fully subtitled, with subtitles of a decent size, the game's optional mission objectives are displayed using one of the smallest fonts we've ever seen in a game, which is almost unreadable sitting all of four feet away from a 32" TV.

With an open world to explore, it can be handy to keep setting yourself waypoints on the map. While this isn't an issue in most levels, as you can usually find somewhere to hide and pick the baddies off, it is an issue in the odd survival-style levels, where there's nowhere to hide, and the enemies are coming thick and fast. With Fetch's primary method of attack being lasers which let her shoot at enemies from a distance, you'll need to be able to handle moving her with the left analogue stick, and aiming the camera with the right, as there's not really any auto aim to help out here. In terms of complexity, Infamous: First Light is a game that relies heavily on dual analogue controls. Finally, if combat is your thing, there are two score attack style modes to try your hand at - Survival, which simply asks you to see how long you can last against wave after wave of enemies, and Rescue, which is much the same as Survival, only with added pressure, as you'll occasionally have to break off the combat, and hunt down a hostage that's being held somewhere in the giant open arena. If you're after something more structured, you can take on one of the game's story driven missions, which are mostly protection style missions that ask you to defend a certain character or object, but occasionally become a lot more varied - and fun - asking you to hack cameras, or hunt down police security drones. Spot one, and you'll soon find yourself hunting down every spark in the city, as you figure out which building you have to leap off to get close enough to grab it. If you feel like chilling and taking in the sights, you can hunt down over a hundred hidden neon sparks, which are glowing like orbs just out of reach.


Set in a small, yet open world Seattle, there's plenty of things to do in Infamous. With an entire city as your playground, there's a lot of fun to be had here, and a definite super hero vibe. With the power to control neon, Fetch is effectively a super hero, who can run up walls with lightning speed, and fire bolts of neon lasers out of her hands. Conduits are humans with the power to control certain elements or materials, and are feared by the populace, and hunted down by an organisation known as the DUP, which wants to imprison them.
INFAMOUS FIRST LIGHT CHARACTERS UPGRADE
Meaning if I wanted to upgrade my powers, I had to spend the time to partake in them.The story centres around Fetch, a young woman on the run after she discovered she was what's known as a conduit. Races, graffiti, and hunting down drones once again litter the world, and are the best way to earn skill points. If there is one thing that still stands out as a sore spot for First Light, it is the mundane side missions. The water and reflection effects are gorgeous, and this is one of the few games I constantly stop to take in the scenery. The game also takes place in Seattle, so it is almost always raining.

First Light adds the now-famous photo mode that allows players to capture some truly stunning scenes. It is easy to forget just how good inFamous looks. Upgrades come quick as well, with all of the side missions generously donating points to my powers. Once I got the hang of it, I was speed bursting and jumping all over the city. Neon was arguably the best power in Second Son, so being able to use it exclusively here is great. Not only does the story follow the straight and narrow path, only having to deal with one power makes upgrading and mastering said power more fun.
