Like the other two, I see myself beating it twice (once as good, once as evil)...assuming it's as good as the other two games. I'm a Sucker for super hero Punching games.

If I was going to play it only once, I would go the good "hero" route.

Playing a good guy is usually the harder rout since you have to be careful about not hurting pedestrians. The previous games I played the good guy first so I think I'll do that again. Then I'll be evil and play the game on hard difficulty.

Bad and if the game warrants a second play through, Good.

I like playing good. Occasionally I would do bad things in the previous games, but overall I play as good.

Same. Will probably be the route I choose again although I do prefer the evil playthrough. Epic destruction and unwarranted killing of pedestrians never gets old.

When I play it I'll just switch between the alignments as I play using saves to get both ends, choice sequences and trophies. the first two games there was very little difference between the playthroughts that warranted two playthroughs it was far easier to just kill a bunch of random npcs or save them and change your alignment I doubt this game will be any different in that way.

My first play through will probably be good. Seattle needs a hero and why justify the DUPs actions with more chaos? That's my reasoning, anyway.

I'll more than likely play as good my first time through, and evil on my second.

When I get a PS4 later this year, I'll be most likely playing good. As I always like playing the good guy in games where there is an option to be good or bad.

I normally play down the middle to be fair, I forget all about the good bad stuff and i end up just shooting everythingand then remember and then play good and all that, I just want to know how much this really does effect the games path and not just carry on the story, like in mass effect what ever you did good or bad you still followed the same story in the end and did the same mission and came to the same conclusion except a couple of people die or what not, i just want a little bit more consequence

That's what the devs said. Most play good first, then bad. Makes sense when you think about it, because most people want their protagonist to have redeeming qualities. Plus, being bad in this game means you have to play the game at a faster pace than if you're good, which suggests you should play the good guy first to get a feel for the game before attempting to go at it like a pro.

Going against the flow here and saying Bad/Normal first, then Good/Hard.

I like rampaging as an asshole on easier difficulties and then doing the "noble" way against tougher odds :P

Good playthrough first. Then evil.

I usually do good first, then bad with infamous. I am a big fan of the series, so I think this will be the first game purchased by me when I get a PS4.

Honestly?

I think I'll play the first time through with only my best judgement. If I like you, I'll heal you. If I don't like you, you die. My guess is the outcome of the game will be a reflection of my own moral character..... No?

Prolly play it based on my judgement decision by decision the first time, then play the second route for the second playthrough.

Second Son has two Plats, right?
