dat Ratchet and Clank influence. I hope that on weaponry this game delivers because Insomniac are kings. This is coming from a big Ratchet and Clank series fan. I've only played the main games so that's 1-3 on PS2 and then ToD and ACiT (one of the best most underrated PS games - play it on hard mode)
this the first Xbox One exclusive that after seeing a little of, makes me want to buy. For comparison it took me a while to actually find a clip of Ryse that actually made the game seem like it could be fun. If Xbox One keeps it up with unique exclusives that it was lacking from the Xbox 360 era, we could be looking at better games for everyone overall.
This won't make me purchase an Xbox One for variety of reasons (including my huge PS3/PS4 backlog), but I hope that anyone I know with an Xbox One would consider picking this up. Last gen was lame because the only games I was interested on Xbox 360, none of my roommates cared about as the were the typical US casual gamer (CoD, FIFA, and Madden).

benevolent sexism
And people though Delsin looked like a douche.
Co-op generally refers to a mutiplayer PvE option in the story. Competitive multiplayer where you can play together on the same side isn't what people traditionally think of co-op.

Wait, has this got a character create protagonist system in place?
so they'll likely be doing sequels again then
edit - guess that's dependent on SO performance, i just found it funny the SniperHunter pointed they were doing sequels under Sony and they might end up having to do the same under MS

Horde style modes are considered co-op. Also, maybe the multiplayer mode has nothing to do with the singe player story but allows for some type of co-op play. Nothing was revealed on this front, so anything could happen.
Yes - you can also choose your gender.

I think nktrnl said there was going to be a custom SSOD xbox one. I think this might be the game that pushes me over the edge.

It looks okay aside from the blurring effect.
Doesn't quite give you the same impression of vibrancy and action as the trailer.
Feels like a fusion between Crackdown and Dead Rising, with colors.

Well, they own the IP, so it's a natural progression to build on it, one would guess.
The game would need to be successful first. SSO2 is unlikely to happen if it bombas, after all.
Shouldn't be hard.

Welp, hype massively dwindled as a result.

Huh?
The question is how open world is it? like GTA open or MGSV: Ground Zeroes? ...my money is on the latter.

Why?!
Wasn't this game similar to other X1 games with persistent online, meaning more player interactions during story mode or was that never a thing with this game to begin with?
Serious question, btw.
From the previews it's like GTA - you can traverse the whole city without ever touching the ground.
Some people in here are way too picky, this game just looks like pure FUN and that's what's important. It looks great graphically also and that's a good thing, is it the best looking game ever? No, but it reminds me of old school arcade/dreamcast era games of pure gameplay/fun.
I will be downloading it the moment it goes up on XBL.

Oh, any word how big the city is? only one city?

Customisation in general is good, but when it's to the point of creating your character then you're just playing as a blank slate, and I hate that shit. Just a personal gripe of mine, but it's kind of a big deal.
No idea :-/
Hmmm , Gifs looked better than the video. The visuals are still cool and the art style seems nice but the movement and animations were really stiff and stunted.
This game needs to be fast and frantic , the movement being perfect will probably be the difference between it being good > great.

Looks pretty fun to me, the concept of customizing the character and weapons is also something that a lot of open-worldy games really haven't gone into a lot of detail on, which sets SO apart.
Now if multiplayer is good, including online coop they may have something special. Seems to scratch the Crackdown itch for a lot of people.

There is only one voice for each gender, though, so I imagine the character will be more like one found in a recent Bioware game rather than a shitty silent protagonist.
From what we've heard, it sounds like one massive city with a ton of different places to explore. My guess is that there each specific site will be its own area that you will need to enter while the city itself will be completely open.
Surprisingly, different people have different opinions. That's doesn't mean they're "trying to get the hype train going," whatever that means. It means they have different opinions. I think it looks great, both visually and from a gameplay perspective.
