Epic Saint rows 5

I wonder if it's gonna be next gen only.

[DarXyde]

GTA V is a pretty tough act to follow, but it does give THQ a chance to capitalize on its weaknesses.

I'm not a fan of Saint's Row, but I imagine a sequel would motivate Rockstar to do something else (provided a Saint's Row sequel is good, of course).

@XiNatsuDragnel

don't say it like that. you might jinx it to be another EGS exclusive

[PhoenixUp]

RIP Agents of Mayhem and good riddance

[micdagoat19]

was it that bad? I never got to play it

[LordJamar]

Please take the series back to its roots and be like saints row 2

[Poopmist]

But 3 was the best in the series

[sprinterboy]

In your opinion.
You say that like its fact pmsl.

[KyRo]

3 was the beginning of its down fall. They completely lost the plot after that. Tuned into something that was not saints row at all.

[micdagoat19]

I liked One and Two better than any GTA

[porkChop]

3 had the best gameplay, but the story got way out of control. They need to reboot and go back to the roots.

[phatak]

2 was definitely the best man, sure there are some more epic missions in 3 but the story was so tight in 2, 3 had a really crappy story I infact just beat it yesterday once again. saints row 2 was so good that id say it was even better than gta4, imo of course

[Profchaos]

I personally liked sr1 more than sr2 I felt like the performance issues and poor frame rates really hampered my enjoyment of the game when the first title looks and plays better than the 2nd it's a problem.
Also the story wasnt as interesting sr1 left you on a big cliffhanger but sr2 seems to have forgotten that and starts telling an irrelevant story.

I actually thought that Sr 3 and 4 were barely Sr games but they were still a huge amount of fun I actually enjoyed 4 the most even if it was a super hero style game

As for the comparison to GTA well the two are worlds apart in tone style and gameplay with GTA IV taking a realistic approach and pushing what was possible graphically at the time but sticking to a serious narrative Sr was still a charicature of San Andreas

[King_Noctis]

A mixture of 2 and 3 would be nice. Just try not to go over the top crazy like in 4.

[Smokehouse]

Nice 😁

Saint's Row didn't care how silly it was, and that worked to it's benefit. But just imagine a new Saints' Row... on the Switch. Saints' Row wherever you go.... Shakedown Hawaii can only scratch that itch so much...

[ocelot07]

Didn't they just recently release a Saints Row game on the Switch and it was a bit of a disappointment?

[micdagoat19]

because it was 3. I would buy 1 and 2 right now

[Crazyglues]

Interesting...

[ocelot07]

I think this series needs a reboot.

[bluefox755]

Eh, I'm down for another Saints Row. Hope they drop the over-the-top silliness though.

[tyler101868]

I know I'm in the minority here (I'm used to it!!) but I really enjoyed the over the top silliness. To me, that was what really separated it from just being another GTA clone. JMO

[thatguyhayat]

As long as its not alien invasion crap with super powers im in but back to the roots is where they need to go

[Knightofelemia]

Hopefully SR5 will take the series back to its roots and play and feel more like SR 1 and 2.

[Vengeance1138]

Keep the series as far away from SR2 as possible, nobody needs another GTA clone.

[Exvalos]

saints row 4 is one of my favorite games of all time i hope in the next game the President, kept his Iron man Exo suit and get to retain your powers.

[stefan_771]

A new one is long overdue

[TheHan]

Love this fucking series!

[AK91]

Awesome.

[BioShockGX]

Please don't use the same ps2 graphics engine
