Kotaku - Only one more day until you can get your hands on Saints Row IV! So you can kill 20 of the minutes between now and then by watching us run around and show off some highlights of the game.
Remember this year's Saints Row(opens in new tab)? Volition would probably prefer that you didn't, which might go some way to explaining why the studio recently decided to upgrade everyone's copy of Saints Row 4(opens in new tab) to its full-fat Re-elected Edition, containing all the game's story and cosmetic DLC and even introducing cross-play between Steam, Epic, and GOG versions of the game.
Unfortunately, that upgrade seems to have backfired, and players now report a myriad of bugs with their new version of SR4. Both the Saints Row Steam forums(opens in new tab) and subreddit(opens in new tab) are filled with players complaining of broken saves, crashes, and mods failing to function. It's also received a few hundred negative Steam reviews(opens in new tab) since the update. If it's succeeded in washing the taste of Saints Row (2022) out of players' mouths, it's only because it tastes even worse.
I wonder if Volition's getting reorged under Gearbox impacted the quality of their release.
When it comes ranking the Saints Row games, there are a couple of weird ones you have to consider, though this is Saints Row after all.
Juan at SwitchWatchTV got his hands on Saints Row 4 Re-elected for Nintendo Switch. Check out his review here and see what he thinks.
My god they made SR into a Hulk/Prototype game. I love those games but this just doesn't appeal to me in a SR game. Kieth David or not I won't be buying this. Yikes.
clearly they don't know what direction you're going in anymore the game keeps getting stupider and stupider no offense but I'm a serious gamer I would not play this kind of shit.
Potential spoiler?
Reminds me of crackdown too with the clusters you have to collect throughout the city
I'm waiting on the game with all the DLC.
