Oh man should be interesting.

The Ice Age is upon us...can't wait!

 

[Footos22]

Friday feels like an age away

 

[Gowans]

The day of release OTs are really taking some getting used to.

I'm waiting on reviews to pull the trigger on the pre download

 

[Guardian Monkey]

Wow that looks, well not great.

 

[Skyzard]

Wow that looks, well not great.

Looks like a lot of fun to me. Still got 7mins of the video left.

Just noticed I can switch to 1080p.

 

[GameE]

God I want sunset to be halfway decent. It's one of the few xbone games I want atm.

 

[xxracerxx]

I look forward to the Giant Bomb Quick Look tomorrow...watching Brad play the multiplayer was somewhat boring but he said the QL is much more representative of the final game.

Why do people suck at this game

 

[daviyoung]

looks great, like Insomniac's version of Infamous

 

[Turkoop]

Oh man should be interesting.

look at polygon review

 

[Animator]

I couldn't make it to the end because I got bored. Really love the art design of this game, but that's about the only thing going for it in all the videos I have seen.

IGN upscaler.

All the game videos look the same to me.
"The real grinding simulator".

 

[Skyzard]

^looks a lot better than the 360p it defaulted me at

It will be fun grinding around the world with cool weapons. Bit of silly fun. Love it. Especially together with the artstyle and open world.

It would be fun I mean.

 

[Guerrilla]

I don't want to watch the video to not spoil anything. Are they saying anything about how much they like the game?

 

[Mr. Smiley]

When is the review embargo on this?

There's a review up from a small time reviewer called Guru Larry who seem to have broke embargo by accident. I don't know if that's what you're looking for though.

 

[Grief.exe]

My first impressions of the visuals was it reminds me of Dead Rising 2, with a lack of AF and AA.

 

[blakep267]

Why do people suck at this game

it takes time to get to learn the controls. watching a new player and somebody that's been playing for a few hours is like night and day

 

[Silky]

That glacial movement.

Seriously, this game has a huge learning gap if the high skilled players can make the game look better than what IGN is playing

but then again I don't expect skilled gameplay from IGN

 

[Tregard]

Are they playing the Xbox One or PC Version?

Spoiler

Don't hit me

 

[Miles Quaritch]

That glacial movement

I'm not posting it.

Nope...

 

[Dabanton]

They seem like they're having fun playing it...

Hence why this thread won't go past 10 pages

Nice!

 

[Reg]

Game's got great style.

 

[Noobcraft]

Looks pretty fun to me. I kinda want to see how much the profanity filter covers before I get it though.

 

[Guerrilla]

Yep, thread is already grinding to a halt

 

[SmokedMeat]

No matter how much I watch this game I never see anything that I would find fun. It's like everyone just grinds back and forth from a safe height shooting enemies on the ground.
Unless everyone was forced not to show off some amazing boss battles, I'm expecting a Metacritic average in the 60s.

 

[BuggeryBugz]

My first impressions of the visuals was it reminds me of Dead Rising 2, with a lack of AF and AA.

Wait, are you saying it graphically looks like dead rising 2?

 

[SystemBug]

Why do people suck at this game

Yep. So many streams I have seen of people just aren't doing cool stuff with the traversal

 

[Noobcraft]

Wait, are you saying it graphically looks like dead rising 2?

Shhh. Someone's got to stir up controversy so this thread gets more posts.

 

[reynal1287]

Looks amazing. This game will review really good. Shooting and traversal sometimes looks a little cubersome sometimes, but it's something minor.

 

[Rembrandt]

The dynamic soundtrack idea is definitely an interesting one.

 

[JaggedSac]

Where's the fun?

 

[Sydle]

The robo-dog looked really fun to use. I hope the game features a variety of missions throughout to keep the carnage interesting.

I love how the city just looks like a big playground. When I spotted the tall buildings in the distance I immediately wanted to go to there.

 

[SmokedMeat]

Are they playing the Xbox One or PC Version?

PC version since you clearly can't have decent camera controls and aiming with an analog stick.

 

[Grief.exe]

Wait, are you saying it graphically looks like dead rising 2?

Aesthetically, yes.

See? I'm not the only one

Looks interesting, a mix of jet set radio and dead rising. Surprised at how much it reminds me of dead rising.

 

[Masterz117]

So what's so great about this game? Not trynna rustle jimmies, I'm just curious.

what kind of question is that?

[Guerrilla]

since there's still no OT, did some gaffers already get the game and post impressions somewhere? If so, what's the consense?

 

[Silky]

It's fun!

 

[Velikost]

A valid one

 

[publicpwnerer]

The bullet sponge bosses feel counter-intuitive to it's design, considering you need to keep grinding backwards and forwards...ruining that sense of momentum and flow.

 

[neurophd]

There has been a huge amount of prerelease information about this game. Won't be hard for you to figure out if it is for you. Start with watching some Sunset TV episodes.

 

[daviyoung]

A valid one

no it's not, it's too ambiguous, rhetorical, or loaded depending on your stance...what's great about any game?

you can see in the various gameplay videos what's great or not about it

they are only playing the first few missions. there a flying enemies, enemies who also grind on the rails and block the rails.


also one thing I've been seeing is that Floyd tells the player to shoot the hurker with the flame gun first to set him on fire, then use the other pistol. yet nobody ever does that and end up using a ton of ammo on him
