    I have fun with that game. I play it when I'm bored. Sometimes I start the game make 2 Quests and close the game. It's like Fast and Furious 10. Much action, guns exploding cars and explode everywhere. Bought for 20€ in Epic Store. Would buy again.

    I don't know why there is so much hate about this game. I really think it's a perfect open-world-game and a great new game in the Saints Row series. Love every aspect of it, except of bugs, which I hope will be fixed soon.

    For me personally, the game is good, it resembles the good old sr with a bit of sr2 vibe, for me it is a step in the right direction.

    - There is not enough blood and no dismemberment (i play sword and it lacks impact when slicing)
    - The driving of the vehicles which is too rigid and arcade (exept helicoptere and the chase plane)
    - a bug that prevents you from attacking
    - bad placement of checkpoint
    - no french voice just english voice.( iam french)    … Expand

    REAL SCORE: 6.5

    (Just gave it 10 because way too many ppl looking over the positives like customization, map, driving, takedown animations, wingsuit and other things they got right.)

    I ran into a couple of bugs here and there, but honestly less than any Elder Scrolls game and some of the previous games in the series.

Driving is still as floaty as ever. Customization is amazing and a lot of games would benefit from looking at this as it sets a new bar.

    I have to rate this a 10 even though I think it's a 7/8 simply because of the review bombers. If you are a fan of the series then it's worth playing. More fun than the Gat outta hell game that was really terrible. This feels like it fits in between SR2 and 3 as far as over-the-top gameplay and the craziness of the characters. No character will ever be as iconic as Jonny Gat and this game doesn't need one. It stands on its own legs and doesn't try to just be a "clone of the last game but slightly more over-the-top." I honestly think Volition did themselves a disservice with 3 and 4 (they were great games and fun as hell) because they left themselves with nowhere to go that would ever please their fanbase 100%. I applaud them for taking it back more to the roots and look forward to seeing what they do from here.    … Expand

    Saints row 2022 successfully builds on previous games. Whether it's the humor, the references to movies and games, the chaos and fun, and more.

    The game has a few new things and I can probably say that the vast majority of them are hilarious and I've rarely had as much fun with side missions as I did here. As for the main storyline, it's fine. It's got what you expect from saints row.    Saints row 2022 successfully builds on previous games.

    As for the main storyline, it's fine. It's got what you expect from saints row. And yes, it's even better than I expected.

    As for the negative reviews.. the game has birth pangs. But within those, it does well. It's not nearly as terrible as other games that have come out recently.    … Expand

    Saints row actually liked me. The missions aren´t repetitive, the characters are nice and has a good gameplay. I haven´t bugs. The map and graphics are its bad points.

    Not 100 percent Great game but still a great game. Played at the game store now I'm buying complete game. After looking at some reviews I never thought that I would play the game but after playing for some hours I loved it. And character creation is pretty awesome and diverse.

    been playing this franchise since the first saints row game on the original xbox and this game is not all that bad. the map is not all that bad. i actually own the game and been playing it and so far no real so far only crashed one time. they fixed the start up bug. other than that really no bugs to speak of. the only thing i would like is more npc players and they they would interact with player like in other saint row games. nothing that cant be fixed in the coming months as they polish the game.

    a lot of the negative reviews are from people who do not even own the game. they start their reviews that they tried to get the game for free, but they could not get a free key and then they spent the rest of the review complaining about a game that they do not have and that they have not played and all you see in the videos are pre release game clips

    the other group i see are people who also have not bought the game and are upset because of their **** politics. honestly its a **** game. get over it.

    another bunch of people i see complaining also have not bought the game and are complaining about very early releases that they may have heard of and are not complaining about any bugs that they may know of in the actual release.

    another group are people who are not happy that its does not have their favorite characters. i dont know what to say dont buy the game.

    other than that what can i say the game is not the best gta clone, but not the worse. i needs some polishing. i just think it need more npcs...finally, i've not run across any bugs other than the game launcher is buggy and it takes a number of attempts to get the game running, real pain.    … Expand

Aiming and shooting really casual just spam right click it made game very easy but variety of enemy after mid game that made game a bit challenge

    This game is very good not perfect but the hate this game is receiving seems to be from people that wanted this game to be something its not (a gta clone/ competitor). Saints row is a arcady cartoony goofy game with little bits of realism, not everyone’s cup of tea but by no means a bad game .

    A totally unnecessary reboot. Not to say the game isn't fun. It is. Again, it's pure escapism that exists just so you can fool around with a bunch of weapons and vehicles and not have to think about it. The problem is that previous installments have done the same thing - and infinitely better. [Issue#322]

    There’s a weight of history behind Saints Row, and no matter whether you’re comparing it to the more serious early games or the sillier later ones, it’s pretty clear that the Saints Row reboot doesn’t live up to any of them.

    A newcomer would be shocked by crude animations, wonky physics and bad gunplay. Fans of the franchise are kinda used to that, but they’ll be disappointed for another reason: while Saints Row 2022 does have a few fun moments, most of them are blatantly ripped from previous games of the series.
