No,i dislike Saints Row but the franchise should remain Multi-platform.I'd rather all THQ software be bought up by 3rd party publishers..It's only right since fans of those franchises are spread across different platforms.
Square Enix already have Sleeping Dogs. They don't need to make another open world crime game like Saint's Row. We have too many of those already this gen. I'd prefer them to put more money into Final Fantasy Versus XIII and Kingdom Hearts 3 rather than that.
I like how Activision is playing quite about things. To me that just means when they buy a bunch of it they can break headlines by "surprise publisher buys so and so!" Ugh....
Really don't want to see any of the titles go to EA or Activision. I want good games, not yearly releases.
Platinum could do a great Darksiders from the combat perspective. Not so sure they could polish out the story though. Sony Santa Monica, Capcom in years passed but I don't see it now..... There's definitely quite a few companies and teams who could do Darksiders. The question is whether or not they can hammer out the story. Though I've been smoking more cigars lately than gaming so I've yet to see where the latest, in Deaths footsteps take us. Personally it's the only game of the bunch I give 2 craps about so I'm hoping it finds a good home. Like Legacy of Kain it would be a dam shame to see Darksiders disappear...
However I do think Sony should buy Saints Row and reboot it. They could, if they worked hard, make their own "GTA" type franchise.
Edit: Oh crap i didnt realise they were making the South Park: Stick of Truth & Metro Last light im looking forward to both of these.
Also I liked Space Marines & Red Faction dammit!
