(+) Yeah! (+)

looks fine to me

TBH I'm really not sure they had any good options for this game. SRIV was so goofy and ridiculous, the game itself pretty much intentionally went off the rails and the entire universe with it.

They did put a plot device to allow a hard reboot for the series, but I'm not sure it would've worked with that context either.

Not really feeling this. Looks bland.

This game is gonna bomb.

Lol the car isnt even jiggling in the slightest in accordance to the road. Its like a predetermined track.

I wish they would do these demos on PCs, it's always so clunky on controller with shooter games

I'm only 2 minutes in but I hope they flesh out the driving physics a little more. it felt very flat that whole time even when he went off road

Looks like a game you'd buy during a steep sale.

I could never get past that first trailer.

First thing I noticed. Looks like your steering a mediocre roller coaster.

The dialogue is just bad, which is a shame... I was just replaying 3 on the switch with the guy that sounds like hes from lock stock and three smoking barrels and its great.

ok so I guess it wasn't actually the player driving and that's why it's so on rails? you're just a passenger

I'll wait for it to hopefully hit Gamepass at some point.

Looks meh but saints row 4 was meh so

Doesn't look quite as polished as I had hoped, but it looks like Saint's Row so

You have to admit the opening Armageddon homage was 10/10

Also this scene

killed me

saints row 4 had some fun missions but mostly i just messed around in the game tbh

The writing and characters are straight out of the garbage bin. The game also looks like a 360/PS3 gen game, while some effects look current gen and thus, out of place

smh

Looks shitty atleast they didnt do the wacky bullshit from 4 that game was basically crackdown

Looks exactly like I'd expect from a saints row game with some mass effect inspiration. Love it. It's always been a fun GTA clone and I'm glad it went the wacky route.

The games have always been bargain bin titles, so this is par for the course.

Will still buy it when its 10 which will probably be by black friday or xmas

Yes? You're allowed to like them but they're just childish knock-offs of GTA in the same way that Jersey Devil was a childish knock-off of Crash/Spyro.

So dumb how people decided they hated this before the first trailer even dropped.

lol gta style games should only be played on a controller.

an example as random as it is inaccurate, nicely done. you could have just picked gex or bubsy or glover or whatever, but you dug a little deeper

I don't think it matters if the game doesn't do anything groundbreaking, sometimes a familiar old shooter is just what you need to unwind with.

No. SR2 was quality.

I would never play a saint game.
