Can't wait to see more, only thing that concerns me right now is that it seems like you should be able to go faster while grinding, etc. Unless combos work into that, that'd be a neat idea.

Really dig how colorful it is and the art direction so far.
 
I like the art-style, I'll have to wait and see about the open world. I'm generally tired of those kinds of games, but the movement mechanics could make it interesting enough for me to get into.
 
I'm amazed at how much it actually looks like the trailer. It's nice to have a game that looks like what we were sold. I can't wait for this.
 
I'm sure the WebM crew will be over pretty soon, but until then...

I've just discovered my first big reason to invest in an Xbone. A couple more eye-catching titles like this and I'll plonk down some cash for sure.
 
Looks very fun. Dem colors doe!!

I can see now why Insomniac went to Microsoft. Sony probably didn't want to fund a game so similar to Infamous and Insomniac absolutely wanted to do it.
 
Ah more JSRF meets Crackdown.

Hope the gameplay is great, wasn't huge on the minor stuff shown in the video but it was random stuff rather than relating to the story anyway.
 
I expect jetpacks and super powers to be in this. If not super powers a gadget that takes the place of a super power. Like the jetpack for gliding and shooting up in the air.
 
The art style is nice, but the movement doesn't look very fluid to me. The way the animation and fluidity of motion look reminds me of Ratchet & Clank, which makes sense, but I don't feel like it looks particularly nice in the context of a Jet Set Radio-esque structure.
 
This is the first time a game makes me wanna buy an Xbox One, looks at all these vibrant colors and large environments, Microsoft should have had this game at launch instead of freaking Ryse.
 
Looks really good, kinda like the love child of several games. (JSR, Tony Hawk, Crackdown and Ratchet)

Looks great in motion as well :)
 
Gawd damn that looked cool. Jealous that it's not coming to PS4. Definitely one of the better looking reasons to get an Xbox One.
 
I have a mix of feelings: some goods, some not.
 
The most pumped I have gotten for a current gen game yet. I really didn't believe they could make a game that reflected that teaser trailer from E3... but it looks like they are on the right path here.
 
Very surprised to hear the positive reactions. I thought it looked super janky. I'm not an open-world guy, but the thought of those enemies all over the place does not look fun.

The bright colors were nice.

These guys made Fuse. I won't trust a.n.y.t.h.i.n.g. they put out.
 
Did they ever own the studio?

not technically, but Insomniac was 2nd party, so they only made games for Playstation systems. after going 3rd party Insomniac can do whatever they please. Insomniac released the multiplat FUSE and are now releasing Sunset Overdrive exclusively for Xbox One as a 3rd party studio.
 
Looks really bland and boring to me. Just another action game that thinks spectacle, an open world, basic platforming and simple combat can make a game good.

And from what I can tell from the video, the feel of traversal looks awkward and unsatisfying. Similar to how Infamous handles, which I never cared for, but worse.

The lack of weight when the hero hits the ground when he lands, the stiff wall running, the on-rails grinding, and the silly looking trail the character looks around. I just don't see much to like. I already find the tone and sense of humor the game has to be obnoxious so I'm thinking you can count me out on this game. Ah well.
 
Having played Infamous and just watching the vid it seems on par with that for an open world game, just with goofier powers and colours, it wouldn't make me go out to buy a XOne, but its helping build out their exclusives.

I want to see Story / side missions, if they can get them right and make them interesting (unlike 90% of infamous) it could be the best open world next gen game out there, and help to tempt me to a XOne.
 
Wasn't really interested in this game but shit. That looks like Crackdown. I love me some crackdown.
 
Wow, that looks really slick. Maybe a bit stiff in that typical Insomniac fashion but still really great.

This is the first Xbox One exclusive game that has me genuinely excited. Really beautiful and fun looking.
 
The game looks great visually. The traversal looks fun the other parts don't. Not sold on the game yet. I have to see more gameplay.
 
I'm glad I'll have something to play on my Xbox One this fall, but a game this fun and gorgeous deserves better hardware. It deserves the silky smoothness of 60 fps without visual sacrifices.

And no... that's not port begging.
