Agreed.

It's a game that's difficult to explain, but I think that's the draw itself. Nobody has played anything like it.

It's an open world apocolypse scenario, but as the black guy in the game says it best, "Awesome-pocolypse". The game is light, colorful, and funny. The missions don't seem overly repetitive. Even the side missions and timed quests are fun.

I've played about 2 hours worth.

It's a game I can't see having great staying power after you've beaten the storyline and got the unlocks you want, but it's certainly worth $60 for the experience alone

Sounds and looks pretty fun and hilarious

The reviews indicate that it's well executed

Looking forward to reading about everyone's experiences with the game on here.

Glad to see people like this game, I wish I could play it. This may be the best exclusive of the generation so far, not sure if I'm forgetting anything though.

You put this over the show and last of us remastered and you never played it?

1) I don't count Last of us because it wasn't a new game

2)

That's the key there. i haven't played the show but to what I could remember this is one of the more well received exclusives this year.

I would disagree with the first 2. I heard a lot of complaining about Infamous and titanfall. The show was very well received but i tend to forget about sports games.

I really liked TitanFall. They just didn't have enough game modes and gun options.


I played that frontiers edge the last 3 nights and it's been really cool

I liked Second Son but definitely had some issues with it.

Same here.

At the very least it's looking like Sunset Overdrive is the best new IP of this generation and it's the first game to make me wish I owned a XBO.

if you want mass acceptance around these parts, you need to be a formulaic shooter.

Just finished playing for like 5 hours. It's harder than I expected. Took awhile to get use to it (still getting use to it) but this game is fun as hell.

This is perilously close to mentioning the game that shall not be named.

I was on the purchase screen last night and just about pulled the trigger. Looks like a lot of fun, but I know I won't have much time in the next two weeks to play it, and then MCC comes out then and I would be playing that 24/7.

Redbox it brah.

I am really enjoying it but I'm not sure it has sustainability past the storyline.
