GameZone writes, "Being the marketing geniuses they are, Deep Silver promoted the "#GATV" hashtag. Why? Because in the hustle and bustle of the mainstream media world, many traditional outlets don't take the time to actually research a game (or maybe the brain simply looks past the two mixed letters -- we've all seen that post with the scrambled letters that your brain can read as long as the first and last letter are the same... right?). Either way, the results are hilarious and I'd say their promotion has been quite successful."
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.
Brilliant.
jernalizm!
Ahahahhaaha.
I love developers that act like this and not like the have a fork stuck up where the sun dont shoine.
Smart! I can't stand the big media outlets, so I'm happy about this!
But there is a picture of GTA V with that being said therefore they just increased sales for GTA V.
