This is just an expansion pack from Saints Row 3 Garbage.

Cannot wait!

The question is will I buy it day one or hold out for an eventual complete package like what was released for the third?

Even if that were true, which it's not, how would it be garbage?

For those who have yet to pick up the third one, Best Buy currently has it on sale for $9.99.


Edit: PS3 version is $9.99. Xbox is still $39.99.

Because I thought 3 was such a shit game....going back and looking at my replies in the saints row 3 thread....I was super pumped for the game before it came out.....after playing through I realized how shitty it was - especially with half (maybe even more) of the missions being activities of all things.

This game is based off an expansion pack - the scope of the city in 3 was so damn jarring as well....example: when you are high above the city it looks tiny then upon moving in closer (via skydiving or whatever) it just expands out of nowhere.

Hey, if you love it no problem.....I think the controls, enemy AI (VERY old school by the way), graphics (plastic land), and them some are terrbile.

That and I'm probably pissed at how shitty 3 turned out after the awesome saints row 2.

Steam has Saints Row The Third: The Full Package for $16.99 as a "Midweek Madness" promotion.

I'm genuinely curious as to how they'll handle you becoming President if you play as the British character. Or the zombie.

Also, I hope Burt Reynolds gets a cabinet position.

^^ Wait, that is your reservation? Fighting toilets in the matrix or hulk fisting people to a pulp doesn't bring you out of the "realism" element?

Not a reservation. Just curious.

No it's not. An expansion pack for SR3 was ported over to SR4. That's all.

There's a demo at Pax this weekend.

Dubstep gun confirmed.

Volition explained to us at PAX East today that Saints Row 4 isn't "Saints Row 3.5" nor the canceled Saints Row: The Third standalone expansion "Enter the Dominatrix" in a different package. The team told us that work began on Saints Row 4 about two months before The Third finished, with another team split to do Dominatrix.

"We had to go in and totally gut the [Dominatrix] story for Saints Row 4. Everything that was the missions or the story we did for Dominatrix was totally thrown out," Steve Jaros, creative director at Volition told us. "All the voice recording that we did all thrown out. We redid the entire story. The game is mission wise the same length as Saints Row 3, plus other open worlds on top of it."

Senior Producer Jim Boone told us that in June last year, shortly after Jason Rubin took on his short-lived role as president at THQ, the agreement was made between Rubin and Volition to combine the games and focus the team on one full project.

"Everyone on the team had the same concern, we didn't want to make a 3.5, we aren't making an expansion pack. What we put out to the world has to be worthy of the name Saints Row 4. I really think everyone on the team will stand behind it," added Jaros. "So much stuff has been changed and thrown out. Even the best of the [Dominatrix] stuff that we liked and pulled into the game we still changed. Nothing was drag and dropped in."

Saints Row 4 will launch on August 20, featuring weapon customization, mechs, a new alien enemy and a... dub-step gun.

Also, a directors cut of what was going to be the Dominatrix expansion will be available as DLC.

I saw the 6 or 7 minute pre-recorded gameplay demo at PAX East. It looks awesome. Think of Saint's Row 3 meets Crackdown or Infamous - the new superpowers involve leaping crazy distances, gliding, and so on.

Publisher Deep Silver – new owner of the Volition-developed Saints Row series – has announced that Saints Row 4 is getting a special "Commander in Chief" edition, available for free to everyone who pre-orders the upcoming game.

Earning the special edition content means you'll get a snazzy Uncle Sam outfit, a "Screaming Eagle" jet, and a "'Merica weapon," which boasts flamethrowers, "dub step guns," and rocket launchers.

Saints Row 4 will see the Third Street Saints voted into presidential office on August 20 in North and Latin America, and August 23 in other regions.

Screw it. I might put down $5 on this just to secure those items in case I do end up buying the game.

I hope Deep Sliver doesn't screw this up like it sounds like the did with the newest Dead Island.

I didn't feel like I was missing anything without the pre-order bonuses for the last game, and this feels like more of the same. I'll wait for a price drop.

cough cough...maybe you missed this in the above post



are you a communist or something?

Volition is still the developer, and they've said in interviews that Deep Silver didn't ask them to change a thing. Just told them to keep doing what they do best.

New trailer. I want this game now.

Is it August already?

Saints Row 4's dubstep gun is the star of both the game and its $99.99 Super Dangerous Wub Wub Edition, which publisher Deep Silver announced today.

Available in "limited quantities," the Super Dangerous Wub Wub Edition comes with a 12-inch replica of the dubstep gun from Saints Row 4, complete with a laser sight and wub wub audio. The set also features a Dubstep Doomsday Button so you can take heavy drops on the go, and an 8-inch-tall Johnny Gat Memorial Statue to pay tribute to the fallen member of the Saints.

The package, which fans voted for, also includes the previously announced Commander in Chief Edition, a free upgrade for all pre-order customers that provides them with three in-game items: the 'Merica weapon, Screaming Eagle VTOL jet and Uncle Sam outfit.

Saints Row 4's Super Dangerous Wub Wub Edition will be available alongside the game's North American launch on Aug. 20 and its worldwide launch Aug. 23. In the U.K., it will cost £89.99. Check out our interview with developer Volition for more on Saints Row 4.
