I think I may be living in an alternate dimension or something.

Then again, I don't pay attention to the official forums. They've always been trash, even before SR3.

Well if your not paying attention, then it's not surprising that your not up to speed.

This is all getting too negative. I still have hope for 4. If they can tune up some of the mechanics, then I might be able to fall in love again. I mean I did like the over the top aspects of 3. I loved the space age super jets and the over the top aspects. It's also been while sense I have played a super hero sand box. That is a ich that I wouldn't mind scratching.

I'm not up to speed with the official forums, but the official forums aren't up to speed with reality.

The only thing I didnt like about SR3 was shopping.
They had 3 clothing stores total, all in different places.
The jokes are what i expect, especially from a giant russian with brains bigger then most of the cast.
And Burt Reynolds as mayor.

Well yes, but who else could handle it? Maybe Commander Shepard could, but she has more important things to deal with.

Handle what?

The city of course.

(was referring to Burt Reynolds)

Well burt is out now. The boss is in charge. I hope they really take advantage of the fact we own the city. Let us do all the things we would want to if we owned a city.

Also, apprently the games Plot involves....An alien warlord planning on taking over the world and stealing our women. And only the saints can stop him.

Sounds about right for the direction that the series has gone, from taking over turf, to taking over a city to taking over their own quasi-independent state. Seems like a logical progression

Dosent look like any change from saints row 3 TBH, not that I care particularly. I only got SR3 for the character creation.

Shame that the character creation was much better in SR2

I had a blast playing it. But then again, I'm okay with a bit of silliness. It's certainly better than the boring brown and grey "realism" of most games these days.

It seems to have plenty of the trademark Saint's Row wackiness so my wife and I are looking forward to this eagerly

I wonder if they're going to license the Dildozer from idiocracy as a usable vehicle.

Volition were clearly fans, they had several Xbox achievements that referenced the film

It seems like an odd goal in the game for me. The boss never shows any interest in anyone ever, also it doesn't seem like something he would care a great deal about. Unless he was rescuing prostitutes or something.

I would say that this is jumping the shark, the turd of a third game already went there.

Maybe I'll see it on another bundle and get it for a dollar.

Well keep in mind, the boss is basically a warlord ruling their own territory now.

And the saints are VERY territorial. They will feth those aliens UP.

The Boss is very deranged too. And intelligent.

Intelligent my chair. She is about as smart as a sack of hammers. All she knows is fighting and awesome. Granted they are the two best things to know.

The fact she(My Boss was actually a women) can come up with complex plans and knows how to drive anything from a jet to a tank kinda make me think she is

I've never been to any Saint's Row forums but my impression of players' reactions is overwealmingly negative. I expect SR4 to flop completely, given that it's such an obvious cash-in. The graphics alone just look comically bad in this day and age, it looks like a Wii game.

You must have forgot about saints seven. Most of the bosses complex plans are shoot everyone. It's how ended up loving her.... As friend.

I loved SR3 but neither do I trust such a shoddy company like Deep Silver, nor do I like the fact they basically release a former retail DLC.

Saints Row 3 was fun. We played through the whole thing in coop and it was very entertaining. My main complaint was that the car chases weren't really as good as they should have been - the way you were sort of just driving away from infinite bad guys and couldn't really escape them.

Maybe the fourth one will be cool, too!

Some info is filtering in. Like how weapons have customizable visuals. That makes me a little excited.

So, You are actually the president of the USA in it. And it has a dubstep gun
