    Sunset Overdrive is a "stylized open-world shooter" from Insomniac Games, exclusive to Xbox One. Insomniac CEO Ted Price announced Sunset Overdrive during Microsoft's E3 press conference. Insomniac showed off a trailer, which featured a man running through – and parkouring around – a city infested with zombie-esque, bipedal creatures. The protagonist used a slew of interesting weapons, including a gun that shoots vinyl records and one that runs on energy drinks.
