6 Incredible Minor Details in Games That Make Them Even Better

The Beast Draws Near (Infamous 2)

Infamous 2 begins with Cole fighting the Beast said to have destroyed the world at the end of Infamous 1. The battle doesn’t go Cole’s way, forcing him and his friends to flee to New Orleans Marais in search of Blast Cores to help Cole amp up his powers for round two. Every time you open up the game, it starts with black on white text telling you how far away the Beast is from New Marais. Pausing the game will show a map of the United States, with an orange dot slowly making its way down the coast, its trail marked by fire. While the game isn’t timed like say Zelda: Majora’s Mask, it doesn’t make things any less tense.
