Picked up the game because I got it for less than a pack of smokes. The game is really not that good and I lost interest very quickly.

A Comical Change To The Un-dead Genre

I bought this game knowing only two things, the trailer for the game had pretty colors and you got to shoot monsters. With that knowledge I didn't know what to expect. The game was actually a fairly long game if you took advantage of every aspect it had to offer and even if you didn't, the game would still take roughly 15-20 hours t beat. There was a lot of humorous dialogue and respawn effects woven into this game that made it very enjoyable to play. The graphics were just as one would expect for a next gen game and the physics were just as nice. The weapons were a blast (no pun intended) to use and the outfits made for a very customizable experience. If you are looking for a "shoot 'em" type game that will make you laugh and have fun with, this is the game for you.

This is one of my favorite game of all time.
This is a unique game that combined both action and comedy sprinkle throughout the whole gaming experience. The game doesn't not take things so seriously and its a nice of change of pace. I found myself laughing and chuckling following the storyline and mission. It makes fun of itself and other game references during my whole gameplay. Some people may complain that its "TOO Cartoonish" but seriously...so that's a knock to not play the game? The art style and direction are the personalities of the game as well. Added the fun factor and the sheer enjoyment, it is a 10 out of a 10 in my book! I heavily recommend this game to all my friends and family.

I found it very repetitive and not as fun as all the hype was given pre-launch

Looking for a realistic game? Stay far away from this one. Looking for something really fun in ridiculous measure? You just scored. Had tons of fun playing, finally a game with next gen graphics that's actually good. Old school gamers will like the sometimes a little too cheesy but still made me laugh humer about gaming in general. The punk rock vibes were sweet too. Not for tools that only play stuff like cod. For real gamers with soul that are down with something ridiculous for the sake of fun. Plays like a tony hawk game a little bit where you grind and stuff but have to kill while you do it. Sweet!

This is an excellent 3rd person action game that reminds me a lot of Jet Set Radio from the Sega Dreamcast. There is a lot of challenges and quests to complete in this game with a very fun and rewarding combo system. Not to mention the myriad of crazy weapons you acquire throughout. It's just a very fun and exciting game to play. It's definitely worth the purchase for any Xbox One owner. The Multiplayer is fun, too.

This game was great. It mixed a third person shooter with a tony hawk style of pace. The humor of the game is great and always keeps you laughing. The story was a little longer than it should have been, but I can't complain. The only problem is this game really is just a one time play through. After I had finished it I had no real drive to do it again. So I would recommend it as a one time play game.

Sunset Overdrive was hands down my game of the year for 2014. Sunset Overdrive was the most fun I have had in a video game in quite some time. It has it all The game play is superb and never gets stale. The story and characters are hilarious and there is just so much to do and experience in Sunset City you will never want to leave!

Must Play for Xbox One Owners

Sunset Overdrive is a AAA title for the Xbox One that doesn't take itself too seriously. From the over the top dialogue, to the bright and colorful graphics, to the crazy fun gameplay, Sunset Overdrive is a VERY FUN GAME. The game's writing and self references only add to the laughs you'll have! Sunset Overdrive is an excellent example of next gen gaming and should be played by every Xbox One owner. Why only 4 stars you ask? Replay value. I personally was not sufficiently invested in the upgrade system to keep playing and collecting items in the game (although I have been before in other games). Multiplayer is present, in the form of Chaos Squad, where multiple players compete to defeat the most enemies, but I wasn't very fond of that as well. The single player campaign, however, was quite entertaining!

A different style of open world game, but if you were a fan of Jet Set Radio Future and crackdown you will love this game. Takes a little while to get used to but once you get the hang of it it is hard to stop playing.

Amazing Story, Gameplay, Graphics and is by far the best game available on the Xbox One! The story is phenomenal, breaks the 4th wall, meaning it knows it's a videogame.
