- Insomniac Games are well known for titles like Ratchet & Clank, Spider-Man and Spyro but what's their most underrated game? That would HAVE to be Sunset Overdrive.

You can really feel the groundworks for what became the spider-man movement
The batman arkham series did it all first
Have you played sunset overdrive and Spider-man? Cause then you can really see what I mean. But regardless, there have been games with parkour and momentum based movements before Arkham as well like assassin's Creed for example. No your comment does not make a good point and no it's not a valid argument
@Deltabolster damn bro. No need to get all butthurt. Besides you can look it up. Plain as day says insomniac got its inspiration for Spiderman from the arkham series. Especially arkham city with the open world concept. It don't matter to me what you think though. I won't lose any sleep over it.
@@Decade_of_the_Dawgyou seem like the salty one here tbh
Doesn't Spiderman 2 have like the same animation for sliding on water?
Now this was a blast from the past. I remember considering between PS4 and Xbox One just because of this game.
if you’ve never played this game, i HIGHLY recommend it
played it with my cousins back in 2015! amazing game fr!
I love this game and I think it’s the first game I ever beat due to how fun it was. I grew up with this game as I was like 6-8 years old and loved how chaotic and funny it would get.
I absolutely LOVE Sunset Overdrive, it's one of my favorite games!! I'm glad you talked about it in a positive way, because it's indeed very rare.
I think I have an idea why people don't like it compared to Spider-Man.
In Sunset Overdrive, you have to be someone who likes to have FUN in games, someone who really enjoy "pure gameplay" and try to make their own fun when we give you fun mechanics to play with. The problem is that most people don't actually do that, sadly.
When I played the game I was VERY surprised, because I wasn't expecting it to be so fast, so fun, so good, and for one simple reason, EVERY videos I've watched about the game before playing it myself, were incredibly boring and slow. A lot of people just play it like dead rising and that's it. I've met a lot of people who, if something isn't needed to be done, won't do it and just do the bare minimum to complete the mission, and if you do play like that, Sunset Overdrive will indeed be extremely boring. It's a game full of incredibly fun mechanics, but it's up to you to decide if you like to have fun and if you want to have fun with it.
Spider-Man is the opposite, and that's why I actually liked It less than Sunset Overdrive (I still enjoyed it, but I had a lot of issues with it too). Everything is much more automated in Spider-Man, people can just hold R2 and Spider-Man will swing and it will look good on screen and impressive, so people who don't try to pull off crazy stunts by themselves will have more "fun" on Spider-Man, because it does that more automatically, while in Sunset Overdrive it's up to you, and if you don't play well, it won't look good.
I haven't played Spider-Man 2 yet, but I know it has a manual swinging system where you can lower / turn off the assist, that's the main reason I'm interested in trying that one, one day when it will be on PC.
Sunset Overdrive is a game that can look incredible when showed off properly by someone who plays well, and terrible when played by someone who doesn't care. It's actually the case for a lot of games, obviously, but in Sunset Overdrive it's very noticeable. In your video we can see that you do have fun with the gameplay, which explains why you enjoyed it.
As far as I'm concerned, I'm a fan of games like Tony Hawk, SSX etc... And Sunset Overdrive was perfect for me. It's just so fun to move around, to keep your combo meter going up, to be in a constant state of flow, with both combat and traversal being mixed together. An absolute gem.
Also, even if it might sound weird for a game like this, I think it's worth giving it a shot with mouse and keyboard, it completely elevates the game, you can pull off much more crazy stuff with quick turns and all, makes it even more fun.
I have played it multiple times it’s the entire reason i bought an xbox one back in the day
Jared knows how to get me to jam games like overdrive that I never thought I would come back to. Thanks man!
Dude really like breakdown to how this game came about and the history about it. Definitely would love more of these!
TGJ Mahjong arc is gonna go hard.
🤔🤔🤔
Sauske is now in an energy drink zombie world...
I really loved this format!! I hope you keep making more videos like this
I really hope that these videos eventually get as many views as the KH videos on this channel... I'm glad I tune into these because there's still just as much funny shit that Jared says/does that makes the video an absolute gem. Keep up the good work, my dude.
love seeing you branch out Jared, keep up the good work
incredible video mate, been watching you since 2013/2014, so glad to see you’re still around.
Honestly never heard of this game thanks for sharing it. I'll have to find a way to check it out!
Love the video style! Kept me engaged and hit new information consistently throughout. Shame that UA-cam's algorithm kept it under my radar, didn't know until ur last X post, but ur brand is set up for these kinds of videos, keep it up and I'm sure UA-cam will show it to more eyes!
Definitely keep these coming! Was entertaining to see your usual energetic hype towards something other than Kingdom Hearts, and I think you did a phenomenal job showcasing what makes this game so special!
I love kingdom hearts content but this is also very welcome. I enjoy discussions and review videos about video games!
This was an xbox one launch title. So of course I've heard of it, played it and beat it.
The story was pretty good but after you beat the game there was nothing left to do. I found maybe 3 side quests but 2 of them were just fending off hordes and the 1 I tried to do because they were talking about a sword and I thought maybe that was the quest reward but I couldn't figure out what I was supposed to do. I think the quest was bugged.
I don't have it anymore.
Okay, the quest giver icon thing was so stupid I couldn't help but laugh my ass off lol
Feel free to continue videos outside of Kingdom hearts, I love watching video essays, and this is great
Thank you so much!
I plan on doing more of these kinds of videos for an assortment of games both old & new. I had a blast putting this together, it was breath of fresh air. I know for sometime these will likely not preform as well as the usual KH stuff however I’ve got to keep my head down and keep em coming! 💪🏻
@@TheGamersJointyou did kindom hearts videos? Neat
Sunset overdrive is such a fun time. It has a huge vibe that’s perfect for summertime gaming and just an all around hilarious adventure. I highly recommend it. 😊👍🏻
Apparently, Insomniac only made $5 profit off this game.
I mean I did buy it for 10 so this makes sense
Yeah according to the leak this game made close on zero turn over, unfortunate due to it being so good
Actually it was $517 profit.
@@dottyorbthat’s not good
holy crap, I wish I'd died more when I played this game. I didn't realize how many respawn animations there were
I would love to see a lets play or you playing one of the games you've been wanting to try out!
Great video man. Now i gotta get this game. Cant wait for that mahgong series tho 🤙
ive actually been wanting to play this game for so long but i dont have an xbox, it seems really fun. also love your videos man
It’s on Steam, if you have a PC that can run it
This was super fun and really conveyed the vibes!!!
I ain’t finna lie, if you ever do a style of video like this again, you finna inspire me to start actually making my own videos
This is great please continue to do other games man I’ve been watchin this channel for a couple years now kingdom hearts is awesome but don’t let it limit your channel any longer good work bro
I've actually beaten this game before! Super good!
Played it loved it alot, my favorite is the bard she's awesome
Awesome glad to see more Sunset overdrive love.. I think it was criminally underrated during it's release..one of my favorite games..the traversal & combat was the best
Love to see the Sunset Overdrive appreciation. This game is fantastic. More games!
There's no way i just remembered this game existed yesterday, and this video pops in my feed right now 😭😭😭😭
Damn this brings back memories 🤦🏽♂️ long live my brother fr he loved this game 💔
I have this installing on my new to me XBox One as we speak. I can't wait to play it!
I’ve loved this game for a long time, ended up stumbling on it a year after its release and loved it ever since.
Banger soundtrack for real
Sunset Overdrive was one of my favorite games I have played!
This was the first game I had for the xbox one. I always hoped that there would be a sequel. Criminally underrated. With good DLC. In terms if just pure gameplay, this is Insomniac's best game.
I had no idea it wasn't considered a classic til I stumbled on this vid. thing is that actually makes it cooler!
I had no idea that insomniac made this game, I only played it once at a friend’s house when it first came out this was very insightful, I also love that Yuri voices the MC in this game 😂
One of my favourite games from 2023 , having played it for the first time on PC last summer.
I'd love to see this remastered and redeveloping ;)
I played and loved it on my Xbox. Just about to revisit it on the steam deck for just a few bucks and I‘m really looking forward to experience it again!
I remember seeing this game when it came out, so when I saw it was offered as a games with gold years ago I was excited
Saw Rollerdrome free on PS plus and it reminded me of this but now I just want to play this again
I see that not only I have those travelsal stutters here and there.
Holy turkey leg man I love this game. Was really sad to hear how poorly it performed because I would LOVE a sequel
Also I feel like it's worth mentioning, I had no clue what the fast travel animation was because getting around is so much fun I never wanted to fast travel
Spiderman and Prototype were the only other games that made me do that
this was the first game I got on my Xbox one way back when. The multiplayer was so much fun.
I cant believe I missed this game... I jumped to a PS4 that gen. Would've love to play this gem.
it's actually one of the first games i got (for free with the gold subscription) with the xbox one and had pretty good fun with it
I remember this being the first game i beat on pc during quarantine
I forgot I bought this on a Steam sale. Thanks for reminding me
dude sunset overdrive is definitely my favorite underrated game of all time
My favourite game of all time and a game that captures the endless fun of other games like titanfall and skate 3 which I played around that time, back when gaming was still great
I played this years ago this game is litterly insane like the gameplay is so fun it also has great story great bosses it’s just like perfect
I played this game for the first time last year after finally getting an Xbox and I loved it
You've convinced me, Imma play it.
Love this game and love this video but it better blow up so people know about this masterpiece 😤
Great vid… keep going I wanna see more non kingdom hearts videos by you.
yo! i played this when it first came out and hated it so much lol.
idk if it was because i sucked at it, but i remember not liking the traversal and the combat was way too difficult. you’d get ganged up on and annihilated within seconds of touching the ground. so, you had to like skate everywhere and you couldn’t stop moving.
it wasn’t for me
one of my favorite games the traversal was just so fun
Here to support your non kh content. ❤
Sunset overdrive is what suicide squad kill the justice league was trying to be, but failed miserably.
You're not wrong. Got it running on my Steam Deck and have yet to play
Just finished it and it is awesome! Got it for a couple bucks on steam sale
I love this game, i bought it on release date and won a second copy on mine country game shop 😂
Did sell the second copy to a friend for super cheap.
The gameplay was definitely one of the most fun I had!
This game was so peak man fr will probably always be in my top 3 games
This man will go to any lengths to not give us the promised KH3 review…
In all seriousness, I really enjoyed this style of video and can tell you enjoyed making it. I hope to see more of it in the future Cynical!
I have heard of this game but never played. It looks neat!
Since when did developers decide doing your weekly shopping was a fun game mechanic? I feel sorry for them lol
Quick reminder: This game is on Steam.
Edit: Yes, I know Cynical mentioned that near the end of the video. This is more for those folks who might skip the video thinking the game was Xbox console exclusive, when it is in fact only MICROSOFT exclusive.
I got it on Christmas Day when hackers took control of everybody’s Xboxes man that was a depressing Christmas
Mexican Ninja Girls?
okay, i’ll give it another shot.
To quote the Mexican Ninja Girl: “I’m Puerto Rican”
I did not know this was Insomniacs first ever open world game 🤯 damn Ive been a huge part of gaming history
i played the hell of this game when it was on a trial version i got to the ending then it stopped also i can suggest maybe reviewing the good fire emblem games
Recently got back into this. I remembered that setting soda zombies on fire with an incendiary dick shotgun as 80's "Weird Al" Yankovic is what makes it my favorite game.
I've played it multiple times and I'm still waiting for sunset overdrive 2!
Sadly no sequel will ever happen as long as Micro hold publishing rights
this game looks like if ratchet and clank and spiderman had a baby
Whenever sunset become ito ps5 I’ll tone it unless it’s on steam? I do plan on buying a steam deck oled same with Hi-Fi Rush
I'd also recommend the no more heroes games - I'd but those games in the this same category of underrated, stylistic games with such a specific sense of humor & made for such a niche audience.
Variety! Baldurs gate 3 incoming baby!
Even the voice in sunset sounds like peter parkers voice in spiderman
It's the same guy.
just purchased the day one edition, cost me £4 on ebay complete, cant go wrong with that.
This game was so good! Wish there was a sequel!!!!!
Slightly unrelated to the video itself but whether this vid might not have as many views or perform as good as you expected, I'll be supporting whatever content you make jared :D Much love from a fellow Kingdom Hearts fan. 👊
I still have the copy of it (the PAL version for some reason) but haven’t dive into yet. It’s mostly the reason why I have a Xbox One, most specifically the Xbox One X. I will definitely at some point play this game when I can, just between my game catalog and finding another job + life…yeah. But someday.
Played it. Beat it. Loved it.
Jet set radio in crack 😂😂 good game
The game is currently on sale for $5 USD on steam. Seriously if you haven't played it yet, it's worth it!
Fuck yeah Cynnical! I love seeing the Sunset Overdrive love. This game is my dream to get a sequel for over any other 1-off IP.
My favorite game. Unfortunately, I don't have an Xbox but just going to bite the bullet for this game only.
I've always wanted to play this game since it was released but cause it's xbox exclusive I never have
this is a wild game
i played this a month ago & when i heard that the main male character was the same voice who did Peter Parker on Spider Man ps4 threw me off. I questioned when can I web swing lol
Perhaps talk about force unleashed? It would be relevant considering Kingdom Hearts is moving into Star Wars and they’re part of the same game genre
This game is the reason I got an Xbox One. They’ll probably never make a sequel but putting it on PlayStation would be awesome
This was such a amazing and unique game to be ever released from Insomniac, and it's such a shame that we'll never see it get ported over to PlayStation. I would lose my mind if it did though, and then buy it asap.
Almost reminds me of splatoon in some aspects. But more violent.
