Yes, yes, I know there will be a barrage of 'Saints Row sux' comments but some new gameplay footage has come out which looks really promising.

Although James won't buy it, because you can run around in a furry suit.

Dildo + furry suit = furious James.

I just watched it too. Looks like Rockstar will need to take some pointers to be quite frank.

BECAUSE THIS LOOKS LIKE SO MUCH FUN.

They've really worked their way to the top with this one. I remember the other two not being that fun. Well done Volition.

I haven't played the original Saints Row games but this totally looks like GTA:SA on steroids mixed with GTA:IV. I think I would have loved it in my teen years, but now it all looks a tad over the top.

Yeah, I definitely know what you mean.


To add, I like the cell shading tone to the game as well. Makes it look sharp.

I'm downloading it at the moment with my green icon.

I guess I'll find out soon and report in.

Played it for about 16 hours, not far on story but don't care - WHAT STORY?

Good game. When it inevitably comes on sale on Steam, get it and play co-op with me.

Decent port, no real slowdown and doesn't require a 4GHz quad core to run like SR2.

DLC is really just the standard extra content, nothing that will make you feel hard-done by; same stuff we saw for SR1. Although bullshit that invincibility is a DLC, fuck you Volition.

Gang notoriety is no longer just wave-after-wave of same mobs with SMG's and shotguns. Now there are specialist units which can be a real pain on the harder difficulties, oh and there's giant mini-bosses called brutes if you get enough gang notoriety.

Some features are missing from SR1 which is a bit of a downer, but nothing that makes it horrible.

7.8-8/10
- As moronic fun, nothing really better. For a fully developed experience with intricate plot and deep characters, PAAA-HAA-HAAA-HAAA! Then again, what did you expect?

I've been playing this lately just out of boredom

I must say it's pretty damn fun and one of the first games that's ever made me laugh (seriously, there's not that many games out there with a great sense of humor)

I love the Professor Genki minigames the most

I'm going to hope that they'll reduce the price even more tomorrow. I've spent wayy too much than planned so far, lol.

The PC port for SR 2 completely kills it for me, dead in its tracks.

Yup, awful port.

You have to admit at least they did a better job with the driving physics dawg compared to SR2
