    Saints Row IV is a must have title, it throws away the rule book and just wants you to have a great time. The Next Generation is upon us, but you might miss it as you get lost in the virtual world of a simulated Steelport with no rules to hold you back.

    Saints Row IV is a video game unlike any you've played before with a rich story, sharp sense of humor and unique mechanics. It's only held back by a lack of variety and the need for a bit more polish.

    An empowering, open game, with plenty for everyone to love, and perhaps most importantly, it’s just a ridiculous amount of fun. Unfortunately a number of small bugs and a short campaign length put the brakes on this fun experience a lot sooner than I would have liked.

    If you want good fun, Saints Row IV is the right choice.

    Supplementing the streets with glowing collectibles and earning the use of a weaponized dildo (yes, you read that right) can only take you so far before one begins to wonder why Bruce Campbell wasn’t hired to voice the main character.

    Just browsing the vast selection of characters other players have uploaded is at least an hour or two of good entertainment.

    If you believe that the world of Saints Row has been missing things like telekinesis, giant mechs, and cartoonish megalomaniacs, wait until this year’s Christmas sales. The discounted price will better reflect the cheap nature of this «sequel».

    Este juego es la ostia, el 3 fue muy bueno y si que se merecía el 9,    Soy español así que no entendreïs esta análisis, pero no me importa.

    Buenísimas armas, buenos vehículos, superpoderes, y una buenísima historia.

    Alright, I expected a warmer reception by the users for this game, but I guess I was wrong. Come on you guys, it may not be the best sandboxAlright, I expected a warmer reception by the users for this game, but I guess I was wrong. Come on you guys, it may not be the best sandbox game ever made, but it's the best game in the Saints Row IV franchise. The graphics may be dated and some features might have been removed from it's predecessors, but it's still a game you'd wanna pick up and play while drinking your favorite cold smoothie. The silly humor is there, the over-the-top action is there and we even got a new addition; super powers. Not only can you beat people to death now, you can also lift 'em up with telekinesis, freeze them, fire them and have a lot of fun while at that.… Expand

This game isnt necessarily bad if you havent played saints row the third, but I did. It's exactly what everyone's been saying its a dlc sold at full price, the worst part of saints row the third? steelport. where's the new game set in? steelport. If you've done any research before buying this game(youtube); then you've seen all the new and only cool features of the game (dubstep gun, superpowers). The superpowers gets old fast. And who's idea was it to implement a hacking game just to access stores; that is by far the most unnecessary and annoying addition to the game. This aint bioshock. The story was so cheesy and makes no sense that the story was a major disappointment. This was an obvious attempt to squeeze as much out of the saints row name by the developers, but they've obviously tried too hard.… Expand
