Loved the game. Fast paced. The attitude and the use of zip lines throughout makes it seem like a cross between a skater game and a shooter. Comical story and great action. One of the best xbox one exclusives.

So, when it begins and you are still learning the ropes so to speak, it doesnt look a lot of fun. But once you get some time into the game, it is so much fun. Mindless shooting and crazy "zombies". If you want a serious game, go find another zombie game, this is not that. If you are looking for fun shooter (3rd person) then yeah, come right in.

There hasn't really been a game lately that captures the essence of older Tony Hawk Games, Jet Set Radio, etc. - quick thinking, quick reacting mayhem sort of games. Sunset Overdrive perfectly captures that. And while it's not for everything, I love the self-referencing and fourth-wall breaking writing. Great character acting to boot.

So many combos and zany things to get into. Great open world fun with lots of different weapons to create and use. Traveling reminds me of Jet Set Radio which is a big plus. Fun game. Don't pass it up.

If your a fan of Insomniac's past work like Ratchet & Clank, you will like this. This is a really intense fast-paced game, which makes for exciting gameplay. The art-style of the game is impressive and the music matches the visuals perfectly. But best of all, the script is written well with a lot of humor. Definitely worth the price.

I'm having a great time in Sunset City! This game is very easy for anyone to pick up and play. There is some adult language and themes which can be filtered if you find it too over the top or if you have littles. Sunset Overdrive feels like a fun mashup of Saint's Row meets Tony Hawk without the skateboard. You will find a variety of ways to traverse throughout the map and come across a variety of characters, missions, and challenges along the way. There are leaderboards to track your personal bests and compare with the community. I've been engulfed in the single player so I cannot comment yet on the multiplayer but this is a good choice if you're looking for a casual game with a fun story that doesn't take itself too seriously.

I will say, this game looked silly to me but when I saw the Black Friday price, I bought it for my brother. When I saw the gameplay and graphics I had to get one for me. This game immeidately reminded me of Tony Hawk Pro Skater with the grinding all over the map. The graphics and game play are AWESOME. Great game. Great game.

Sunset Overdrive went above and beyond my expectations! It blends the fluid action of Jet Set Radio with the horde slaying of Left 4 Dead with engaging story and wild characters in an open world environment!

I rented this just after release. Thought it was fun combo that reminded me of tony hawk skater game meets infamous and left 4 dead Pretty fun and inventive but not too memorable. Purchase this when it went sub $20 and have enjoyed. Controls are good. takes a little adjustment get the grinding mechanics down.

I highly recommend this game to everyone. This game is so under rated and not that many people bought it. The game is so much fun I couldn't put it down. I have to get the download content, cuz it that much fun. It's Jet Set Radio meets Tony Hawk pro skater meets zombie type game. BUY IT!!! You won't be disappointed.

If you are a fan of the old Jet Set Radio games by Sega, you will be a big fan of Sunset Overdrive. It's got bursts of great color and all in all, doesn't take itself too seriously; but the gameplay is solid and the replay factor is good too. It's a lot of fun and one of my favorite Xbox One games so far.

The first few hours will make you want to drop the game. However, as you keep playing the game gets better in the fun factor portion. You cannot take this game seriously. The story is hilarious just like any Ratchet and Clank game. I still would have preferred a Ratchet and Clank game over this.
