this is pretty cool and the fact they are planning to keep this in the game sounds awesome.

““Hi and welcome to Sunset TV! If you’re watching this, that means you’re currently reviewing or streaming the game. Look I’m not trying to sway your review score either way, I mean your opinion is your opinion. But I advise you not to use the phrase ‘Sunset Overhype’ because that’s just lazy writing!”

Lock it if expired

"This video does not exist."

:/

Edit: That was pretty awesome. Can't believe this game is only 10 days away. It's going to be a blast.

[R3TRODYCE]

Haha that was good.

 

[TheOddOne]

Moar like Suckset TV.

 

[N.Domixis]

hnnnng this game.

 

[Daphnes Nohansen Hyrule]

Moar like Suckset TV.

That´s pretty terrible!

This game looks so good, i hope there is a demo

 

[Gestault]

I really dig the tone of these. I hope that doesn't work against it for people who don't.

 

[RedAssedApe]

cringe...haha

 

[Raide]

Suckset Overtripe.

Day 1!

 

[Ray Wonder]

I like it. Can't wait to grab this.

 

[DWinn7]

Lol that was pretty dope. I think this game will review very well.

 

[Totobeni]

joke or note, any sort message from devs to reviewers to not use some terms or words in the reviews is just a bad idea.

also from all info and videos I've seen Sunset don't seems anything special at all, it's mix of old ideas from Insomniac older games with other thing from other games with nothing new or exciting really. Insomniac better not get mad if they get some reviewers not liking their game or called it overhyped.

Don't forget that it also lacks mass appeal.

 

[DarthWalden]

I love the idea behind this and I'm curious to see how it's going to be carried over 6 months to a year and how it will evolve.

Really cool

I also hate fun things.

 

[BPoole]

This game has pretty low hype so calling it overhyped at all is just false

 

[GayForMaster]

Not really interested in the game but I don't understand why people are cringing? I thought it was pretty funny, and it's also a great idea.

 

[Bornstellar]

Honestly putting those traversal tips in there is a great idea. Few things worse than having awesome systems go unexploited by those who play the game.

 

[CosmicQueso]

I also hate fun things.

I was going to go with nofunallowed.jpg but yeah.

 

[ZeroGravity]

Trying a bit too hard here.

 

[Camjo-Z]

I hadn't heard about Sunset TV before this, it looks like a pretty cool idea. Not a fan of the constant jump cuts though. Makes it feel like an amateur Youtube video.

 

[BiGBoSSMk23]

Moar like Suckset TV.

Reminds me of this picture:

 

[jstevenson]

Trying a bit too hard here.

haha, howso? We have Sunset TV in game, it'll be in game every week, we needed a pre-release one that reviewers and such would see, so of course it should reference that fact and follow the show's usual tone.

*Shrug*

 

[Glass Rebel]

Suckset Overshite

game looks fun as hell tho. After whatever that four letter word shooter was called, it seems like Insomniac is back in their element.

You need some Night Springs style content and show short Fan Films on there.

Spoiler

Seriously ... Is your comment for real? rofl

 

[Icyflamez96]

I don't really see how it's "trying too hard." I usually never understand that comment when it's used in other scenarios either.

He's trying too hard to to criticize it.

 

[Mass Effect]

lol, that is pretty good.

Those jump cuts are the most obnoxious thing ever though. Can people not speak more than one phrase at a time to a camera anymore?

 

[DarthWalden]

No, in fact by sending a message to reviewers it sort of help demonstrates the interaction thar something like Sunset TV can have with the player base.

This is a really cool new idea for a videogame. But like every cool new exclusive that comes along I guess it's not immune to this concern trolling.

 

[Krakn3Dfx]

Seems like a far cry from the guides most publishers send out with games to try and direct the reviewer's opinion, see the guide Bethesda sent out with The Evil Within telling reviewers to play on casual to cover up obvious issues with the game on the higher level.

This seems pretty harmless, and I'm interested to see how they utilize the Sunset TV stuff in game after launch.

 

[Mucudadada]

lol, that is pretty good.

Nope, I screw up too much.

 

[squidyj]

sunset overdrive?

more like, sunset, it's over, bye.

 

[Hubble]

The game's art style and in general make this one of the most refreshing new IPs in sometime. Will buy it alone for its art and effects.

 

[RedAssedApe]

so much corny stuff in this game. is it review embargoed until launch like everything else these days?

 

[Purest 78]

The game looks boring and repetitious, bright lights and colors don't pull me in.

 

[statham]

a day before launch I believe.

 

[RespectThySole]

The day before launch.

Which non repetitive games do you like?

 

[LowlySmokeGuy]

Which non repetitive games do you like?

Those don't exist. You either like the game's mechanics, or you don't.

 

[C.Dark.DN]

Nope. I. screw. up. too .much.

Ftfy

 

[Grisby]

Kind of a neat idea with the gameplay tips. Like the next step with those sheets of advice paper publishers send.

sunset overdrive?

more like, sunset, it's over, bye.

You could headline gaming journalism with that joke.

 

[Lucent]

He doesn't seem to overuse it though. I've seen a lot worse on YouTube where people seem to abuse it too much because they've seen other people use it and don't know how to limit it.

Need to see if SEGA will let you put in some Jet Set Radio/Future costumes and accessories. Or maybe just make something similar. I'd wear a Beat costume for the fun of it. lol

 

[GwyndolinCinder]

lol somehow this made me want an xbox one, WP

Hiding tge cuts with gameplay footedge does a lot of good for sure.

 

[Impeccable]

Have they ever came out and said how they are using the cloud?

I remember the hype a long time ago claiming they were using it quite a bit and would explain at a later date. To be fair the game is almost fucking out.

 

[StudioTan]

Which non repetitive games do you like?

Going by his post history he really likes Driveclub and Destiny, 2 games which are known for their diversity of gameplay.

OT: I like what they're doing with the Sunset TV stuff, any time devs can keep games engaged post end-game it's a good thing.

 

[Bessy67]

Wasn't that said at the first E3 where an internet connection was still required? I'm guessing they dropped that stuff when the mandatory internet connection got dropped.

 

[PeskyToaster]

This and a future Gears are why I would buy and Xbox. Interested to see how this turns out. Sony shouldn't have let Insomniac get away from them.
