Support NeoGAF

[PerZona]

This is the only game that I want on the Xbox One currently. I really like the art style in this game.

 

[TheOddOne]

I'm not sure about this one. Insomniac have been hit and miss recently. I hope it plays well.

And yet the first thing you question is exclusivity for a game you "are not sure about".

Why do you do this. You pretty much give people ammo to support their claim that "journalist" are nothing but a bunch of fanboys.

 

[V_Ben]

If we're both sufficiently blown away at E3 let's do it Ben.

Ha, alrighty then.

Bear in mind this was my last OT I think. I had a lot of fun writing this years ago...

10 minutes until embargo drop.

10 minutes until embargo drop.

I hope we get a trailer.

 

[Duxxy3]

They call out cover shooters in the preview as well, saying that they think there's fatigue setting in among gamers for games where you have to hide behind cover all the time.

I think that's the excuse they are using for fuze's bad sales. I have no issue with cover based games.

edit: to be fair, i don't think cover based games are their forte

Is this happening again?

Have been rewatching the Sunset Overdrive Teaser from last year. Love this bit!

 

[LastNac]

Damn.










That sounds fun as hell...

 

[Ploid 3.0]

Reminds me a bit of Dead Rising too. Make your weapon, horde of zombies.

As for the resolution I expected it but had a feeling Insomniac would find a way to make it 1080p. I wonder how the final game's IQ will look.

 

[Doffen]

I hope we get a trailer.

That would make my day.

Trailer, box art and release date would keep me going until E3.

 

[SEGAvangelist]

Titanfall hype has died, so may as well move on and deflate hype for Sunset Overdrive right?

 

[TheOddOne]

Is this happening again?

I rather it not, but to see him going through the same tactics as before is really disgusting.

 

[OdysseusVA]

p.s Who is gonna be first to moan about it being sub 1080p?

http://www.videogamer.com/xboxone/sunset_overdrive/news/sunset_overdrive_is_currently_sub-1080p.html

Would it be wise to invest in a 1600x900 monitor for the Xbone? I hate upscaling. So ugly.

 

[Love Deterrence]

Thanks for the offer

Don't get too excited though now that Emcee is a mod if he gets wind I'm thinking of doing another OT he might perm me.

Ha! (Don't mention it. ^_^) That's messed up, man. Let's hope that isn't the case! I'll stay quiet and on the lookout. *Stealth posts OT*

Looks like he's giving us false hope. Microsoft's deal with Insomniac probably included right of first refusal for first titles (like Titanfall and EA), so I'm doubtful it will come to other platforms at all. Oh well, the Twitch gameplay will be nice to watch.

 

[hughesta]

This sounds really great, another Xbone exclusive I'm interested in. Gotta hand it to Microsoft, they're finding some great games to nail down.

 

[wotta]

I was thinking out load after reading earlier in the IP I believe, that insomniac own the rights.

 

[UrbanRats]

Have been rewatching the Sunset Overdrive Teaser from last year. Love this bit!

These are the colors i'm expecting, really.

 

[JLck]

Calling it now, previews will talk about how Titanfall has taken all the Xbox One limelight and been hyped as the frash take on the FPS genre, whilst Sunset Overdrive has gone about quietly with little attention paid towards it and may just be the game changer that we've all be waiting for.

 

[Trago]

Wii U games?
Knack? (lol)

I have a Wii U

Ryse and Horizon disagree...as do I. Opinions though....and I play SNES games on my 1080p set...soo...meh. lol

I guess a 900p monitor wouldn't hurt if you actually are bothered by it. I find it hard to believe that people are so sensitive in reality... the resolution of a game (and the display) only really matters to me on my gaming rig.

Anyway, just looked up the images on Reddit. Looks wonderful.....I want to see those "explosions" in motion.

 

[digoutyoursoul]

I rather it not, but to see him going through the same tactics as before is really disgusting.

Come on guys, let's not get into this crap

 

[graboids]

the game brings to mind Tony Hawk, Jet Set Radio, Crazy Taxi, Prince Of Persia and the blue skies and bright colours of the Dreamcast era.

damn... this sentence could have come straight out of my dreams... this is now my most anticipated game... guess I am buying an Xbone....

Definitely do not do this.

 

[Hattori]

One of the two games I bought an Xbone for! It looks great and the fact that it's not an FPS is such a relief.

 

[Scottish Sin]

I guess Phil was speaking the truth when he said that the game looked on par/even better than the CG trailer. Can't wait to actually see the game in motion though.

 

[Ol No Bones]

I don't blame you. Really gives game journalism an even worse reputation with guys like him.

 

[LKSmash]

Gone from cautiously optimistic to fully on board. Bring on a release date.

 

[Miles X]

Oh hell the new monster looks incredible!!!!!!!!!

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

Yep. Day FUCKING One.

 

[V_Ben]

Fuck.

Yes.

 

[Love Deterrence]

Yep. Day FUCKING One.

Day one it is!

 

[Chobel]

Yep. Day FUCKING One.

Looking so fucking good.

 

[dancrane212]

Yep. Day FUCKING One.

Wow! That's a lot of colour!

 

[Silky]

You’ll have to accumulate “style” before you fight some of the harder bosses. Some bosses won’t even notice you’re shooting at them if you’re at style level one or two.
Players are rewarded for playing fast and hard and not stopping. If you stop your style meter drops: “getting in there, mixing it up and mantaining that velocity is your aim.”

Devil May Cry influences omggg

Those previews

Those screens

 

[Terbinator]

 

[Scottish Sin]

Good lord.

 

[TomShoe]

Does anyone know if you can cancel the subscription that comes with the magazine free trial? I'm getting a print subscription later.

Screens look creepy as hell. Still awesome

 

[N7Commander95]

Am I Allowed to cry just a little? This is the game of my dreams

 

[TheOddOne]

Oh wow, that looks really fresh.

 

[Wynnebeck]

damn... this sentence could have come straight out of my dreams... this is now my most anticipated game... guess I am buying an Xbone....

Journalists tend to over hype everything, even when the game is mediocre as fuck. A sentence of that nature just sets off alarms to me. Ill have to see gameplay before I can get excited.

 

[keit4]

Ok, this game looks cool.

 

[PhatSaqs]

Yep. Day FUCKING One.

holeeee shit

 

[PSGames]

Looks amazingly fun.

 

[TechnicPuppet]

I love colour in games, it's the reason I preferred Halo to any other FPS.

 

[shandy706]

Yep. Day FUCKING One.

Looks like the enemies are using the cables in that first image.

In the second image...is the hand of that monster the bucket from an excavator?? Ha

Looks amazingly fun.

Awesome....that's the explosion I want to see in motion....and look at that...uh...ummm..."gun?"

 

[op_ivy]

mah gawd.
