Sunset Overdrive

I can not stop playing this game. I love how self referential it is and how they constantly break the fourth wall. I'm about 20 hours in.

I've gotten so good at combo-ing grinds, bounces, wall runs, etc that I rarely ever hit the ground. I thought that was going to be tough for me but it's become so fluid and easy.

How did you get a code?

Why did you enter a contest for a game on a console you don't own? Apparently it's too late to take my Thanks back.

Anyway, I think I only have a few story and side missions to go. I've collected EVERY single collectible and achieved Gold in a good amount of the challenges. I really enjoy those. Some games really mail in stuff like that but I think most, if not all of the challenges are creative and interesting. I've also unlocked a good chunk of the cheevos. I have not tried any of the mp stuff yet.

I need to buy the Season Pass ASAP. This game is so much fun.

I went over 30 hours of play time last night and I'm still not done the story. I ended up unlocking a side mission last night that involved tracking down "quest markers" that had me LOLing. Maybe I can wrap it up tonight. Ha.

I played a few hours more yesterday, mostly just getting gold in challenges, and I'm still not done.

I think I got about half way through the story mode (and playing strictly those missions) before I was sucked into COD. I know eventually I'll get back into this game but it sounds like I still have A TON to do.

Man, you're a dick. You won the thing, just give it away.

I suppose I shouldn't be surprised that you're taking the douche path.

I just assumed people entering the contest had an Xbox One.

That would make way too much sense Bill!

I am really enjoying everything about this game, but I feel like I'm having trouble really grasping how to play it. The first Vat protection mission wasn't hard, but I was so overwhelmed by the way that you are basically required to always be movie and always be shooting. My hands were having trouble catching up to what my brain needed them to do.

Man I love the graphics though. And I created a Freddie Mercury look-a-like that I am very happy with. I was super pleasantly surprised with how awesome the character creation was.

My bad. I didn't know you had to have an xbox one to enter. Otherwise I wouldn't of. I sold to fellow vsn'er MmmmBeer for $10.

Liek I said previously, I was really concered with the whole "stay moving" aspect of the game, prior to release. I've never been good at keeping combos going in games like Tony Hawk, NBA Street, SSX, etc. I definitely struggled at first but now I have a really good grasp of it. I still occasionally hit the ground but it's no big deal.

I will say that I finally tried out Chaos Squad last night. It's a lot of fun but I'd really like to play with some friends. All but ONE of the randoms I played with weren't talking and the one that was sounded like he was 12. They were also pretty terrible.

For those that aren't aware, it appears that you basically cycle through four or five "objectives". The first may be to kill an onslaught of Fizzco bots in the time limit. There are bonus objectives too like killing a certain number while bouncing. Then the next objective may be to destroy as many Fizzo crates in a time limit. You have travel to different areas between each objective and you get bonuses depending on who arrives to the location first, second, third...The last objective is always a Night Defense mission. I went through two complete "cycles" twice and both times we failed the Night Defense. I honestly don't know what we were doing wrong? They are set up just like the ones in the campaign but there doesn't seem to be a timer so you don't know how long you;re expected to defend. Waves and waves of enemies just keep coming until they destroy all of your OD vats. It was pretty frustrating.

Seth, I added you to my friends on XB1. I can't remember if they still use that stupid 'follow' thing and you have to add me too?
