One of the most anticipated of all games heading to the PS4 this year is InFAMOUS: Second Son and if you can believe the screenshots that were released the game is going to be very impressive.
Most of the greatness of the game came from the huge effort that had been put into the lighting effects of the game and the details. Lead Engine Programmer Adrian Bentley showed off the pictures at the Game Developers Conference and talked about how the lighting affected the game in ways that you could not imagine. He then went on to show people the effects of before and after the lighting.
The photos showed how use of indirect diffuse lighting along with indirect specular lighting enhances the mood and colour of the game and the difference is noticeable. You can see the difference lighting makes to the mood of the environment; it makes it sharper and more vibrant.
Would you have thought that lighting would make such a huge difference?
