    Saints Row the third with super powers

    whole review nothing else needed to be said i guess i'm in the minority of people who don't like the super powers and thinks they should of been kept as DLC not the main focus of the game, and the world is almost exactly the same only updated a little to accommodate super powers don't get me wrong the super powers are fun but i did not want    Saints Row the third with super powers

    Where do you go from SR3? Glorified DLC. Saints Row IV is really fun and enjoyable in places, but gameplay is uneven; most plot advancing story missions are bookended by repetitive and boring activities. Superpowers open up new avenues of play but at the same time manage to make most weapons and vehicles useless.

    I didnt play SR 2 but i did play SR3. I freaking loved SR3 that game is over the top, epic missions and lots of humor. And its special for how over the top it is. However, SR4 was a disapointment. I didnt expect to have a huge change, i dont want a huge change. But i didnt expect to have almost NOTHING changing at all.

But i didnt expect to have almost NOTHING changing at all. Ok, there are new powers, new enemies and new weapons but I dont think that was enough for a WHOLE new game. Its more like a big DLC. (Ps. i dont really like the idea in SR4 that are about aliens.) All the main missions are fun but only very few of them. The side missions are all completly repetitive and boring. I forced myself to finish it just to get those trophies. One of the things that are really good about SR3 is that everytime you have bugs, it will auto-matically respawn you back on ground so you wont be stuck---Or really, any types of bugs. But all the stuff are opposite in SR4. There are countless glitches and freezes that i have to restart my ps3 at least 5 freaking times during playing. FIVE TIMES. I never, NEVER have to restart something in SR3 just because of the game glitches. I dont know if this happenes to other people but some time during a mission, the character will just froze and didnt give me the next objective. Which cost me having to restart the mission again. They also remove some really cool stuff too in SR4 from SR3. Lets say the music in stores which i know its not really important but it did bothered me. The music from Nobody Loves Me and Rusty Needles in SR3 is my jam but they took all of that away. SR3 was also special for its soundtrack but apparently it changed in SR4.....i am giving SR4 a six just because SR3 was such a good game. And SR4 was suppose to work harder since they knew GTA 5 came out almost with this game!… Expand

    This is, simply put, a FUN game.

    Pros:
    -Massive game with tons and tons of content, ranging from side missions to challenges to story missions.
    -Story is actually good, funny and offers enough content to keep you on your toes till the finale.
    -The guns. Just the variety is mind blowing.
    -There are enough powers to make it stand out as one of the best super hero games out there. Yes, even better than InFamous and that terrible Protoype.
    -The game is actually funny.

    Cons:
    -Haf way through the game, everything becomes the same. Go here, disable these 3 things and run away. Go there, press these three things and run away. Go that way, fight these 3 waves of enemies and run away. It is terribly boring and sometimes i found myself turning it off because of pure rage.
    -The game is literally broken. I found myself restarting a save file almost EVERY SINGLE MISSION because the character would get stuck in a wall or he would stop moving or the gun would stop firing etc... Sometimes it even froze and i was forced to restart my PS3.
    -The graphics are terrible and unforgivable. This is 2013 for God's sake, can't we expect good graphics for once?
    -There is absolutely no enemy variety. The Zins all look the same. You'd be lucky if you ran into a Zin boss every now and then.

    Verdict:
    -Mediocre game. Really fun for the first 5 or so hours, but eventually it becomes repetetive. If you can ignore the glitches, lag and crashes, and if you don't mind repetetive missions, then by all means, buy it. Otherwise either rent it or forget about it.    … Expand

He notices every cliché move you make and mocks you for it which I just love not to mention he is was wicked mother within the first 2 hours of the game he kills 7 billion people. Finally the humour, many of the lame sex jokes from the third have now been replaced with amazing references (my personal favourite being the MGS level). Not only that it was lots of throw backs to the previous games which is always a welcome addition. SR4 is a must buy.… Expand

    It's decent but I wish the main story mode was longer. SRIV is a case of too many subquests and not enough story material. It's a pity cause while the plot is insane it's kinda funny and they could have done much more with it. Kind of like SR2 except not nearly as authentic.

    More a huge mod than a standalone game. If you liked Saints Row the third you probably will like this too, but i was quiet disappointed. the superpowers were cool, but made the driving and weapons complete useless. But if you are willing to overlook its flaws you can have a great time!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Okay.

    I have played only Saints Row 3 and 4 (and Gat out of Hell if that counts as an actual game and not just DLC dolled up as a full game).

    I didn't love 3 as much as everyone else seems to.

    The emotional inconsistencies (and I get that this is a satire of other adventure sandbox games) and falls flat on its face humor (the way the BDSM community is portrayed is sad and spooky).

    Now, on to 4.

    I personally LOVED having super powers.

    I loved that you could play the entire game naked, or only covered in slime, and could do a lot of unmentionable things to the 'citizens' of the simulation you live in.

    There were decisions about how the thing looked (3 looks infinitely better in all ways) and the way that gameplay was handled that I didn't agree with. Is 4 a cheap ripoff of 3's world? Heck yes. But is 4 a lot of fun - even if it lacks the same brilliant set pieces that made some of 3 a hoot.

    4 is a very solitary game. You mostly did things for your teammates. There are exceptions - like the one involving a couple of different versions of the same character - or when you do a really, REALLY boring drive around the simulation - that was only made tolerable by adding sing-a-longs. And when those petered out, it became obvious how empty the exercise was.

    But oh the things you'll see.

    I find this game strangely relaxing.

    Getting worried because the US of A seems to be heading into Fascism and economic collapse (not to mention a military coup)? Then wonder around killing bad guys by the score and use your super powers to your heart's content.

    It is a great way to chill.    … Expand

So, initially, I didn't know how I felt about my main character essentially being a super hero trapped in the matrix. But then I thought about it...given the way that The Third ends, there really was no other way to go from there but just this sort of lunacy. As an owner of both a 360 and a PS3, I have often said that this game feels like the sequel that Crackdown (a highly underrated release title for the 360) should have had. If you can let go of your expectations and lose yourself in the insanity (which, let's be honest, is at the heart of any Saints Row experience), then what you have is a solid, fun game from start to finish!

    The leveling elements and power progression really does ramp up in a big way if you do your due diligence and max out your character. You will go from a slightly overpowered Neo-type to a God-like mashup of multiple super heroes. The controls are solid, the open world environment is rich and unique with the new matrix setting, and the bevy of super-powered villains that you must face all make for a fun world to romp through. And nothing beats the first time that you face a Warden...

    Take this game for what it is, and it is an excellently unique open-world experience that takes an already ridiculous Saints world to a whole new level. However, if you are simply looking for another installment of GTA-gone-wacky, then you will be disappointed.    … Expand

Your mandate as a President wont last long because the world is invaded by aliens The Zin Empire.

    The graphics haven't changed much from the Saints Row III game. Little changes are here and there mostly in offsimulation levels.

    Now lets talk a little bit about gameplay... You are no longer have to run around the city, or drive car and etc. because you have superpowers. I must say that i was little bit sceptical in the begining, but in the end it was much funnier than i expected.

    The soundtrack is excellent again. As i said in begining Aerosmith, then when you were escaping Zin mothership Hadddaway - What is love kicked in. And lot of other 80s 90s songs + Skrillex.

And who's idea was it to implement a hacking game just to access stores; that is by far the most unnecessary and annoying addition to the game. This aint bioshock. The story was so cheesy and makes no sense that the story was a major disappointment.

You're reign as President wont last long as the world is invated by aliens called "The Zin" and eventually destroyed. After the massacre you find yourself saved by Kinzie Kensington from 1950's dream world and set in a space ship hidden from Zin and as the last remnants of the civilized world. From the space ship you invade the play world of Zin which modeled after SR3 version of Steelport, kinda like in the Matrix universe. Twist this time is that Kinzie has unlocked super abilities for the player to use in the Zin world of Steelport, coming in from of super jumping or running and you need to rescue back you're Saints partners and defeat the Zin.

    The graphics haven't changed much from the previous game. Little changes here and there are seen, Zin posters and markingson walls, glitches have been added as gameplay for example tiles of a wall move or citizens of the Zin world could change randomly their outlook. Most interesting is the aspects of missions in different computer worlds, at one mission to rescue Johnny Gat and bring him back alive you have to enter his mind in a 2D sidescrolling fightning game which is one my favourite parts of the game.

    So yes gameplay has you, instead of running and stealing cars, jumping on roof tops and speed running through traffic, being the little god of the Zin world and as the story moves on Kinzie unlocks abilities for you that enables you to throw objects with your mind, shoot ice/fireballs, stomp the ground creating quakes and turn you into fire/ice person that when you run by a enemy or person, he sets on fire. By the way speed running makes stealing cars pointless which Deep Silver noticed by giving you a way to listen to the game music at any point, unless you're back in the space ship aka real world.

    The soundtrack is excellent as usual and suits the game really well. Clearly Deep Silver wanted to make this game a homage to older SR games using Aerosmiths "I don't wanna miss a thing" song as a start and end song. Other tracks include classics form 1980's and 90's to new bass bumping Skillrex style tracks and each track has a reason to bring atmosphere to every mission.

    Hard for to join with the sayings that this is just DLC sold in full price, sure it's the same Stillwater but the game has content and a lot of it. With every mission giving different new places to visit in, basically meaning you dont spent much time in Stillwater other than joining mission or killing aliens. Story brings you back to earlier Saints Row days with sidemissions giving samples of history behind each Saints character upon to the end giving a plot twist that is a must see for each Saints Row familiar player.

    Personally I really enjoyed the game, it's an excellent combination of action and fun, comedy and satirical drama. Also it gave a feeling of a nice closure for Saints Row series, with missions going through the history of the Saints and showing the appreciation toward the fans of the series with the nice twist at the end of the game.    … Expand

The roleplaying dialogue aspect could have been a bigger thing, but its okay since its basically an action game like GTA.

    This game just has everything I loved from different games and movies: NFS car customization, RPG character creators, buying acessories like SSX3, fun vehicles like Time Splitters / GTA, insane cyberpunk plot and environment, retro & new music, silly kung fu and shooting combat, good graphics for the system. Lots of challenges to keep you moving. Instead of holding you back, the game gives you insane abilities within the first hour.

    I haven't had this much fun playing a game since Time Splitters: Future perfect. I know this isn't directly comparable to that game, but it gives me the same vibe.

    The gameplay isn't too complicated. I know they are basically milk runs sometimes, where you drive a car, or shoot a bunch of enemies, but I don't mind. I did like some of the "bosses."

This game has everything, from car-jacking to German-suplexing to hulk-jumping to flower-picking. The story is ridiculous and hilarious, the combat is fantastic, and the level progression goes from minor thug to Superman. This game is brilliant and just excessively fun.… Expand

    This is a game that is willing to simply but fun and comedy at the front of everything. Now apparently by the reviews it is not for everyone, but being a fan of their earlier games I found this one to be the best so far. I absolutely enjoyed every minute.

    The game is solid. Granted a lot of stuff is recycled, graphics are subpar, and the game really feels like a string of sidequests, but even with that said the game is still fun. The humor is still there and the gameplay is the same addictive gameplay from the previous iterations.

    Luckily the game's biggest strengths still hold up well, namely the armory of wicked crazy weapons, the variety of goofy enemies to fight - from Deckers to Matriarchs - and the absolute freedom to do whatever the hell you want to. [September p. 68]

    If you believe that the world of Saints Row has been missing things like telekinesis, giant mechs, and cartoonish megalomaniacs, wait until this year’s Christmas sales. The discounted price will better reflect the cheap nature of this «sequel».

    If you want good fun, Saints Row IV is the right choice.
