    The game itself has that fun factor I've always loved in the Saints Row franchise, but that's about all this game has going for it. The devs put minimal effort into this one and it clearly shows.

    If player customization is one of the features that you liked about this series so far, you should avoid this game. There are only two fixed protagonists that the game allows you to play as, and you can't customize their outfits or anything else at all. Apart from that, this game mostly recycles content from the previous installment, even the graphics pretty much are the same.

This game doesn't cost as much as other titles, but it is still too expensive for pretty much being a DLC sold as an own game. You should wait for a discount if you're still interested in playing this game. Expand

    Amazing DLC, but worst port ever. Game freezes every 30 minutes, collectibles won't get picked up due to a random glitch, ... Little to no effort put into this port. Buy it for PC, not for any console.

    Biggest piece of **** I've ever played, totally destroyed Saints Row for me. First off they got rid of actual missions, then they gave us a **** map. I waited since 2008 to get my revenge on Dex, what did they give me? Dex randomly walking the street and the ability to murder him without a stand off between him and the boss

Its not a total disaster (if you liked IV you'll probably find something to enjoy here) but the awkward controls and repetitive nature of many of the missions, that have plagued the series since it began, are becoming harder and harder to forgive and this series really needs to make big changes if I'm going to invest any more time to it.

    Saints Row GoH's chaotic and action-packed world does have its moments and can be entertaining in short doses, however the game has never been able to hold my attention for more than a few minutes at a time. This game has bad graphics, less than average gameplay and a story that is just not interesting or entertaining.

    Sorry but this game is really bad. I got it for free and I am still disappointed.

    I haven't played a Saints Row game before but as far as this expansion goes, you don't need to. I started this game just as an intermission before starting a big game and instead of having just mindless fun I was thrown to a boring, tortuous and repetitive fest of broken gameplay and sterile story.

    The thing is really over the top and it has like 2 or 3 funny lines but that's it, in

    The thing is really over the top and it has like 2 or 3 funny lines but that's it, in order to advance the "story" you need to fill a meter which can be filled with some random missions or challenges (minigames), the problem is that there are like 5 different minigames and you have to repeat them over and over to fill that meter, or you can just mess around which also fills the meter but slower.

    Nearly at the end of this torturous game, I was really thinking about quitting it but I played all the way through so you don't have to. It took for me to finish this thing like 5 hours that seemed more like 20, I don't know how people are saying in other reviews that you can play this thing more than that, but hey, is OK to have bad taste. In the middle of the storyline, there's a musical number which is kind of fun until it overstays it's welcome but that's why this review is 1 instead of 0.

    Hay suficiente diversión mientras dura la aventura, pero todo tiene acabados bastante mediocres.

    Probably the worst PS4 game I played so far. I already didn't like Saints Row 4 but this is miles worse. There's no character customization, no story (it's literally just side quests to unlock the boss battle), and everything is super repetitive even for a 3-hour long story. I played this co-op from start to finish and both me and my friend had no fun at all.

    No interesting characters

    No interesting characters (except Satan's daughter), an uninteresting map, and lots and lots of bugs.

    Terrible in every way, shape and form. Just a horrific game overall with no redeeming factors

    If you don't care about playing last-gen material on new-gen platforms, give this a miss, do yourself a favour and pickup a copy of the original Saints Row IV for under a tenner.

    Gat out of Hell is not bad, but it's not great either. To put it simply, it's more Saints Row IV. If you go into it thinking its going to have all new gameplay with an all new story, you are going to be disappointed. It's fun but the overwhelming feel of deja vu may sour you a bit on it.
