We sit down and play Insomniac's new action third person shooter Sunset Overdrive. Is a trip to Sunset City worth it? Find out in my review. Story A new energy drink hits Sunset City and turns most of its residents into mutants, sending the city into the apocalypse. The company Fizzco who put out the energy drink then closes the city off to the rest of the world in hopes of covering up the incident. As a survivor you team up with others to escape the city and expose Fizzco. Hated There was not much to hate about Sunset Overdrive if you are into fast pace action and crazy moments. Read More...

There is some new Sunset Overdrive gameplay footage showing off both campaign and multiplayer modes for the game Sunset Overdrive has its Xbox One release rolling in on October 28th and we've seen so much of the game so far so why not add a bit more into the mix. You know you want it like the mutants of Sunset Overdrive want that sweet nectar of the gods energy drink. At least that is the safe assumption here as you did click into the page to see some sweeter gameplay as the headline suggests is on the page. We will not disappoint and will include the videos just below. Read More...

A bunch of new screen shots for Sunset Overdrive have been released to show off some of the game's areas and story For all the grief, joking or not, that I have given Sunset Overdrive there is one thing I cannot deny; Sunset Overdrive looks like it is going to be one of a hellishly fun ride. That in itself sounds like a pun on the game but in all actuality Sunset Overdrive looks like the game most gamers and the internet has been wanting for years. Especially so after looking at the below screen shots that have been released from Insomniac Games and Microsoft for the Xbox One title. I am sure that your eyes have already glanced down and have begun slowly taking in the new looks at Sunset Overdrive. Read More...

A new 'live action' trailer for Sunset Overdrive has been released for us to see…well…kind of Well it looks like Sunset Overdrive now has a 'live action' trailer for everyone to pine over and lose their shit for. I don't understand the point of live action trailers for video games but I guess if Microsoft and Insomniac want to waste the money you've given them over the years, then I guess we need to let them. You know, to make sure that we all know that Sunset Overdrive is coming to the Xbox One here in a month and we need to shell out more cash for them to have a larger budget for their next IP. So they can make another live action trailer for a virtual world game. Read More...

We get another fun look behind the scenes of Sunset Overdrive and learn nothing we didn't already know about the game If you are looking for more news and information on Sunset Overdrive then you have come to the right place. Unfortunately we don't have anything as of right now. That is at least if you don't care about hearing the same descriptions of Sunset Overdrive over and over from Insomniac Games and the whole press crew trying to pimp out the title. You would think for another of those Xbox One exclusive titles they would be flooding the market with news and awesomeness for the game but it looks like all we are getting is a whole bunch more to let the BS Meter go off with an annoying buzz again. Just a bit lower you can see the latest "behind the scenes" video for Sunset Overdrive. Read More...

The opening cinematic for Sunset Overdrive was shown during the RTX convention and we have the video here If you don't want to have any bit of Sunset Overdrive spoiled for you here then I would suggest not going forward. I would also suggest that you stay away from coverage of the RTX convention that happened over the weekend as that was some of the big news and views that came about while most of this country was blowing up part of the land or setting fire to mammal flesh in mass quantities. The Fourth Of July to those who need that spelled out in basic words. Anyways, now that you have been warned, here is the opening scene for Sunset Overdrive. Read More...

A new multiplayer mode for Sunset Overdrive has been announced with a trailer showing off all of the new chaos Can Sunset Overdrive get any wackier? Most likely but the new co-op mode, Chaos Squad, shows off quite a bit of the insanity that we will have to deal with on October 28th via our Xbox One's and Xbox Live. If that is your jam and all. I mean who would want to play a game like Sunset Overdrive in a multiplayer aspect? Read More...

Insomniac Games has announced that they are experimenting with the open development process with a new 'indie' title Slow Down Bull We've seen a bit of "open development" with other studios but it looks like Insomniac Games is giving it a go with Slow Down Bull. By open development I am talking about how some studios have been live streaming the process or conducting Google Hangouts to get gamer feedback as they move forward in the process. This is just the case for Slow Down Bull as it will consist of a team of four to five members of the Insomniac crew making this little PC title over the course of "until it is done". Not much is known for Slow Down Bull as of yet as it was just announced with nothing more than a concept of some key art but here's what we got. Read More...

A new gameplay trailer and screen shots for Insomniac's Sunset Overdrive have been released for our viewing pleasure. We have yet to see much more than a CG trailer for the Xbox One exclusive Sunset Overdrive. This is the latest title coming from the once mainly PlayStation exclusive developer Insomniac Games. You might remember it being announced during the Microsoft E3 2013 press event or you might not. No matter which you luck out today that we have a metric butt load of new visuals and in-game footage to show you for this open world shooter title. Read More...

Insomniac Games is celebrating their 20th anniversary in a grunge style tribute music video. With all of the closures and layoffs that have been all over the news in the last few months it is reassuring to hear that Insomniac Games has made it 20 years running now. Yea, it's crazy to think that we got Disruptor and Spyro just about twenty years ago. Hells, it is crazy to think that 1994 is just about twenty years ago. Don't we all feel a bit old now?

I think the Joker summed up the past few years of video games quite well, with his famous saying "Why So Serious!?" It seems that today's industry has dropped the light-hearted and comical games of yester-years for a more gritty, hardcore, and serious tone. While I'm not saying these "serious" games are bad, I am saying that a break from them would be much appreciated. Video games are not all about world wars, political sabotaging, or saving the world from a cliché ultimate evil. We came from a very humble beginning, a beginning of stomping on weird brown monsters, using rainbows to squash bugs, and controlling fat pink things that suck up anything in their path.

Overstrike, a four player co-op game developed by Insomniac Games and Published by EA has had its name changed recently. Yep, Overstrike is now called Fuse, with a recently released teaser trailer that gives an extremely dark vibe over the funny, light hearted trailer released at last year's E3. I'm not too concerned with the darker trailer simply because it's a teaser. If it was a full length trailer that had eliminated all of the light stuff and was completely serious, then I would have had an issue. I guess I am just experiencing shooter fatigue because just about every FPS and Action game that has come out recently has been super serious. Read More...

Let's start with "What is QuakeCon?", or as it has been known since 1996, the Woodstock of PC/LAN gaming. Hands down, one of the largest LAN parties of our generation. A celebration of all things Quake-oriented and bringing LAN gamers together onto one giant network. A gaming marathon that one will never forget from August 4th to 7th. Although, with so many gamers in a single location, and hosted by some of the biggest names in the business, (id Software, Bethesda, Insomniac, and Respawn) were bound to get some great news out of this event. Also a very interesting note, this event is 100% FREE to players! Read More...

Ratchet and Clank has enjoyed a really good run these past 7 years, and A Crack in Time is a great cap to the "future" series. In what may be the final game in the series, Ratchet must rescue Clank from Dr. Nefarious (the villain from Up Your Arsenal, the third game in the series). Before we get in to deep, let's get a quick glance back at the Future trilogy thus far. In Tools of Destruction, an evil tyrant named Tachyon set out to revenge against the Lombax's for destroying his race. This is the first hint we get that Ratchet isn't the last Lombax in the galaxy.
