One more week until you can get your hands on Saints Row IV. In the mean time, check out the latest infographic put together by publisher Deep Silver.
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.
"Infographic: Reasons Why Saints Row IV is Better Than Real Life"
I could maybe understand using that title if the article came from a site called terminallyillgamer.com and not terminalgamer.com.
The Author should spend some time outside once in a while. As it turns out, real life is actually way better than a life lived in video games. It's full of scripted and seemingly unscripted events, endless adventure and more NPC's than you can shake a stick at. I might also add that "Real Life's" draw distance, sound, visuals, and physics are amazing. 10/10 for me.
