Looks like a lot of fun. Seems to have everything you look for in an open world game plus a really compelling art style. Still not convinced to get a xbone but if I do get one this game will be at the top of my list.

 

[RoKKeR]

Hey guys, check out the official page for Sunset!

8 player co-op action!

God damn, yes!

 

[Vire]

it's quite safe to say we'll be showing new stuff on Monday.

Very excited! You guys are on the top of my list now that FFXV dropped out...

 

[BeforeU]

up to 8 player co-op? YESSSSSSS

 

[ROMAD]

Looks like a big sandbox demo - which isn't bad. Looks fun, but I don't see myself wanting to play it for very long... Graphics look very cool though! But that streaking tail behind him when he is sliding on wires etc looks bad they should ditch it

 

[Silky]

8 PLAYER CO-OP FREE ROAM?!?!!??!?!?! PLS. PLS. PLS.

trail is up to you. does help other people see you at parts of the game, lots of other versions.

and yes, what we've shown so far are big sandbox demos... but, the game has a full long campaign, with story and full voice acting (male and female), with missions, quests and challenges. The story missions in particular are all pretty hand-crafted, each with their own unique gameplay elements (like the shockwave bounce pads in the Fizzie boss fight).

Monday can't come fast enough.

 

[Frolow]

Any chance of local co-op you guys think?

 

[Head.spawn]

"Gamestop Exclusive..."

 

[JaggedSac]

I just tweeted Mike Ybarra and asked if digital purchases get something and he said yep. So that is great news for me.

 

[spannicus]

[FHIZ]

"Gamestop Exclusive..."

Another piece of small inconsequential DLC, oh well.

 

[rokkerkory]

[condompickle]

[jstevenson]

I just tweeted Mike Ybarra and asked if digital purchases get something and he said yep. So that is great news for me.

yeah, there is a digital day one edition that will be available for day one that has that stuff.

and there is some other bonus for digital purchasers too.

Very cool. Games like yours are games I will buy digital! Glad that digital owners are getting perks as well.

Excellent news!

[XtremeXpider]

Less than two days for E3! I can't wait for a video showing 8 players co-op.

 

[Jezehbell]

Hey guys, check out the official page for Sunset!

8 player co-op action!

 

[Amir0x]

8 player co-op!?

Dear God is this game heaven sent or what!?

 

[klodeckel]

Chaos is coming! 8 player co-op!

Sounds great.

Can you tell me if the 8-player co-op or other parts of the game are using azure?

 

[R3TRODYCE]

Best news so far.

 

[Miles Quaritch]

Like a lower price for buying digitally?

 

[TechnicPuppet]

Like a lower price for buying digitally?

I'll get it on US store so it's cheaper anyway.

 

[BruiserBear]

Music to my ears.

 

[Miles Quaritch]

Yeah, I'll probably end up going the US store route as well. Would prefer not having to go through a workaround to get a sensible price when buying digitally though.

One day perhaps...

 

[Cthulhu_Steev]

anyone hyped?

man E3 is like almost better than xmas

almost? E3 beats Christmas hands down!

 

[Dramos]

Oh yeah, 8-player co-op?! This game just gets better. Hopefully they will have good plans to keep players interested after lunch.

 

[TechnicPuppet]

Yeah, I'll probably end up going the US store route as well. Would prefer not having to go through a workaround to get a sensible price when buying digitally though.

That would be nice. Of course if digital was cheaper here it would likely be cheaper still in the US so I would still use the workaround

 

[CecilRousso]

Not an especially interesting setting, and not a game that I would like to play, but it sure has some nice graphics. One game that actually looks nextgen. Good work there Insomniac.

 

[Shpeshal Nick]

Hm... bonuses for digital?

Tempting.....





Mighty tempting.

Didn't see this anywhere--new video showcasing a Sunset Overdrive E3 bus.

"Because rules are meant to be exploded."

 

[Rocketz]

Was going to buy digitally anyway so the bonuses make it that much sweeter.

Spoiler

Unless I can get a Fizzie Plushie

 

[rokkerkory]

If DD games are same priced but come with a bit more content, I am down for that.

Like extra characters or guns etc

That was genuinely funny, and quite random. Thanks for the link.

 

[Mucudadada]

I love that bus.

I'm biased.

But, I love that bus.

From the Major Nelson/Phil Spencer mini podcast.

According to an earlier statement, removing Kinect from the equation allows for 10 per cent more GPU performance - no small gain.

"I think about games like Sunset Overdrive, that's going to take advantage of the June [software development kit]," Spencer went on. "And they're going to use the increased capability that lowering the reserve will have to actually make a more vibrant and alive gameplay space, so that's where they're going to invest.

Dat secret sauce.

 

[Ape]

Saw some sunset overdrive guys in the Galen Center right now. Lmao

 

[Gbraga]

I reeeaaaally liked the gameplay footage they showed, nice level design, the enemies now have colors and parent issues, interesting new weapon, great potential with the amp system (assuming that time when he jumped on something, it exploded and took tons of enemies was only possible because the player knew he had that amp equiped and activated at levle 1).

My favorite thing at E3 so far.

My negative feedback would be those two things (at least that I noticed for now):

Rolling with the right timing should probably boost your style meter a little, or at least make it so it won't deplete, it's skill and should be rewarded. (Or not, maybe you already tested this and don't like it).

But this one is kinda important: What's up with losing my style meter because of the boss(mini boss? whatever) intro cutscene? Fix this shit.

 

[JimiNutz]

This was the best game at MS conference and think it might be my personal best of show.
Looks so fun and love the art style.
