That was something I picked up on from E3. Pretty much every game from Destiny to Fable Legends had 'Tude in their trailers. It's like some focus group said "Kids love the witty banter. Let's punch it up!"
Sunset Overdrive kinda turned me off with the ads and even the box art. Wasn't until I found out I could create a character that I was on board. Don't get me wrong. The game IS crazy and some characters are irritating but, for the most part, it's about on par with the second or third Saints Row game in atmosphere and writing. A lot of fun. Just think "Saints Row is to GTA what Sunset is to Infamous*" and you'll have a pretty good idea what to expect.
*Except that, while I like Saints Row, I feel that GTA is better and while I know inFamous is a good series, I feel that Sunset Overdrive is waaaaaay better.
