How's the character / clothing customization options compared to SR2? That could genuinely make or break my interest in this one.

It's less impressive when you take in how old everything surrounding it is.

Can't believe that GTA5 is still topping the lists almost a decade after its original release.

I keep seeing this statement, but isn't that the console with more exclusives? I thought Xbox barely had any and provides multiplatforms instead with gamepass.

I feel like this has been a slow quarter. Elden Ring took over the world for a few months, and after that game releases have chilled out a bit.

The usual sports games are still being dogshit, an indie take on a beloved game concept is hitting it big, and we're about to see a packed holiday season with a new Sonic game and a bunch of new announcements for 2023 at the Game Awards.

The past few years have been loaded with a lot of speculation and some more low-key game releases. Team ICO is making a new game. Kojima and Konami are all over the rumour mill, with Metal Gear remasters and remakes and stuff swirling around for at least a year. GTA6 finally got confirmed, with about a year of coverage beforehand speculating on the "Project Americas" concept where the game map would span down into Mexico and into Canada.

I think we're about to see a bunch of hype announcements. If GTA6 launches in 2024 or 2025, I'm hoping for a world premiere at the Game Awards this year. Anything Metal Gear related - except for NFTs - would win me the fuck over. It's gonna happen some time, and with how slow 2022 feels and how lacking 2021 felt, I think we kind of need a shot in the arm with some hype announcements.

All of that to say - Saints Row is probably a fun game to play on a lark, but it's also a pretty slow quarter in between a massive phoenomenon like Elden Ring and what I can only hope is a bunch of massive announcements coming soon.

I'm wondering this as well. It looks like a really well made management sim.

Yup the vast majority of gamers are casuals (which is not a bad thing) games are all tailored to the majority now.

I feel sorry for the earth's population, 'cause so few live in the U.S.A. At least the foreigners can copy our morality, they can visit but they cannot stay.

How the fuck are there still so many people buying GTA V?

Like it doesn't seem humanly possible in late 2022.

Yeah, always glad when a good indie game gets the praise it deserves, which is usually never. Last big one I remember was Hades.

I remember its because people get some sort of in-game currency by buying a bundle with a new game or something.

It's the textbook definition of a 7/10 open world action game circa 2012.
