Gametrailers just postet an impressions video and Ben Moore sounds super pumped for it. He compares it to bayonetta even, which is kinda of unexpected imo.

This games hype is picking up as it seems. (For the media and me...)

POP me if old...

 

[legacyzero]

I mean, it looks pretty damn fun.

 

[PhatSaqs]

Hope it's good. I'm not excited at all for this one. A demo would help.

 

[mreddie]

Said everyone else.

It looks so fun.

 

[Journey]

Damn... good for Insomniac, they deserve it.

 

[FonkyByNature]

This is great to see as i'm getting the white bundle with Sunset Overdrive !!!

Can't wait to play it !!! looks like a blast in multiplayer coop too... + the graphics are charming.

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

is it just me or is the video in the link a sex scene from God of War 3?

 

[RoKKeR]

Impressions have been really solid so far, looking forward to it.

 

[mocoworm]

Super pumped for XONE exclusive goodness.

Day 1

 

[Seik]

Well, it just looks so damn fun, it's up there with Masterchief Collection and Scalebound as games that makes me want to buy an X1 so much.

Hype justified, imo.

 

[AntiFacebook]

This is great to see as i'm getting the white bundle with Sunset Overdrive !!!

.

same here

 

[Jacobi]

I didn't like the demo at GC that much, but could be fun.

 

[antibolo]

Good thing he said "period" out loud, or else we would think his sentence was not over.

 

[Alcoholikaust]

more excited for MCC however: pumped for this as well. XB1 gonna make that holiday comeback with a vengeance.


edit: REVENGEANCE

 

[statham]

I'm getting a GOW, NSFW scene, when I click.

 

[Shpeshal Nick]

Spewing the wait is still over a month away

 

[twobear]

I don't really 'get' Sunset Overdrive. The concept seems fun but the implementation isn't doing anything for me from what I've seen.

 

[SerTapTap]

Same. Really hope everyone saying it would flop are crazy wrong. This looks way too interesting, I'd be really really disappointed if it turned out good but still sold poorly. Seems to be getting good impressions so it's on the right track.

 

[Pritchardo]

for some reason im getting disney infinity video from the link but it has sunset overdrive title and description

 

[Impeccable]

Super pumped for XONE exclusive goodness.

This sums up a reason why a lot of platform exclusives get overhyped. You should be happy for the game, not the exclusive nature of it.


I'm hoping this does well because Insomniac is fucking awesome.

 

[OnionPowder]

That sounds like recent Insomniac to me.

 

[x-Lundz-x]

Well I am getting the white bundle so I hope it ends up being as good as it looks.

 

[VLiberty]

This.

And yes, it's probably my most anticipated game period if I could actually play this.

 

[Kerub]

I'm getting the trailer for Animal Crossing in SSB when I click the link.

 

[neurophd]

I am getting a video review of "Shadowgate"....looking forward to SO!

 

[Doffen]

I'm getting a GOW, NSFW scene, when I click.

Hmm I'm getting Shadowgate

 

[REMEMBER CITADEL]

Polygon's preview is up as well: http://www.polygon.com/2014/9/22/65...ours-of-sunset-overdrive-and-i-liked-it-a-lot

 

[BattleMonkey]

Game just screams like something folks will love, but it will sell horribly. The only hope game has is the bundle which will push numbers of it no matter what.

 

[Guerrilla]

is it just me or is the video in the link a sex scene from God of War 3?

Well that's strange, the link is obviously correct if you look at it, is there a special way to link to videos with gametrailers? It works fine if I click on it

Edit: Now I get a Disney Infinity review, even if I go to the video again from the front page, seems to be a problem on GT's side.

 

[Certinty]

Didn't care about it when it was announced but the more I've seen of it the more interested I've been. Looks as crazy and fun as anyone could have hoped for, can't wait for my white Xbox One with this to come.

 

[rrc1594]

GT get your shit together link is all types of fucked up

 

[Raw64life]

I don't own a bone and don't want one either but there's no denying the game looks great and I'm jelly as fuck I won't be able to get it.

 

[Lernaean]

SO is my most anticipated game on X1 as well. I'm buying an X1 for it next month and along with Halo MCC and Scalebound will justify my purchase, i'm very excited for it.

But please, no Bayonetta comparisons, you lose all credibility immediately.

 

[Servbot24]

By far the most intriguing game coming on XB1. Looks like some cheap, shallow fun (which is not meant as an insult, those types of games are needed).

The gameplay clearly has no relation to Bayonetta though.

 

[LowlySmokeGuy]

I got a video about MS purchasing Mojang.

 

[Hip Hop]

Let's see if Insomniac still has it. Their last few games were just "average" and FUSE sucked. Won't believe it until it drops.

I hope this turns out good because I do plan on getting it.

 

[Percy]

To be fair, it's not like there are many other XB1 only games to choose from to start with.

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

Well that's strange, the link is obviously correct if you look at it, is there a special way to link to videos with gametrailers? It works fine if I click on it

I cleared my browser history and I'm still getting a 38 second video of GOW3 when I click the link. Must be on GT's end.

 

[User 479360]

It has the potential to be a lot of fun, but I'm not sold on it 100%. I'll rent it for a week when it launches and see what I think.

The on-rails stuff worries me.

 

[MrBud360]

I´m just feeling a Crackdown 1 vibe, which is great!!!! I just hope for a full coop story mode!!!

 

[GulAtiCa]

Likely getting the white bundle for the game. Looking forward to owning an Xbox One.

 

[friskykillface]

Dead rising x jet set raideo

Its been said before but that's how I feel about the game , and I'm glad it looks like that

Pretty hyped about the game

 

[StoOgE]

My most anticipated game of the year by far.

Probably the most I've looked forward to playing a game since Halo 3 or JSRF.

 

[T.O.P]

D1

 

[Ray Wonder]

Why when I click your link does it take me to a Super Smash Bros video? lol

 

[Jobbs]

after the last few hyped games I've become hype immune. trust myself only.

 

[SerTapTap]

Game just screams like something folks will love, but it will sell horribly. The only hope game has is the bundle which will push numbers of it no matter what.

Even if people don't buy on launch and only get the bundle, if people really enjoy it from the bundle some good word should spread. Plus I'm betting we still haven't seen the real start of the marketing push yet--they've had it at EVERY conference--something just about only Destiny (for Sony) and MCC can also boast, there's no way they'll ignore it at launch.

 

[REV 09]

I need a demo or reviews for this one. It looks like it could be fun for a while though.

 

[Valkerionseven]

Why when I click your link does it take me to a Super Smash Bros video? lol

Yeah there is something wrong with their site.

I clicked bonus round after this video... and it took me to a clip of the GoW3 sex minigame haha.

Yeah, if they think highly enough of it to make it the white console bundle. They're going to market the hell out of it. I hope so, I really like Insomniac, and I'd like them to have a successful game.
