This game is just a open world activity and challenge grind-fest. There is barely any story, the cut scene with the musical is good, but rest of the game story is pretty bland and falls flat. The quest design is done very poorly, compared to Saints row 4 where there are memorable quests, over the top moments, and actual good attempt at being funny. All of this is missing in this follow up game. Apart from some funny …

As much as I would like to recommend this game, there are some reasons that i can't. This game is by far the emptiest saints row I've ever played and is best described as a stripped down SR4. It's somewhat like SR4 but with less crowd variety, cars, the lack of any meaningful customization, less side quests and fun/engaging things to do, a significantly downgraded and predictable storyline, and some other problems. …

This is the closest game to Prototype and Infamous that doesn't involve Marvel characters. It takes all of the (out of place) superpowers from Saints Row IV with some additions, the most popular character from the games, and throws it all into a glorious fun experience in a Hell-based playground. Too small to be a full fledged release but too big to be a DLC. It was really fun though and scratches that itch until we …

Saints Row: Gat Out of Hell is a really fun game. I loved the crazy powers, the funny story, and flying around Hell as Johnny Gat. The gameplay is fast and feels great. The only downside is that it’s pretty short — I finished it quicker than I expected. Still, it’s a great time and worth playing if you like Saints Row.

Do NOT come into this thinking it as a game. Think of is as a DLC for Saints Row 4. I was able to achieve 40% completion in around 2 hours, this game is very short so you probably want to pick it up on a sale.

positive · AI labelView post →Story time: How unclear UI "tricked" players into having gay sex (and they weren't happy about it) In Saints Row IV we added a tongue-in-cheek companion romance system. When it was first hooked up in game the option in the conversation wheel was labeled 'Proposition'

neutral · AI labelView post →Game manuals used to be so good. The one for Saints Row was done in the style of an undercover cop within the gang, and if you paid attention, it basically told you who it was and it wasn't a twist that came out of nowhere in the game itself. Clever stuff

Mainly, I'm looking for any open-world game that features motorbikes/motorcycles as drivable vehicles. It doesn't have to be a racing game. (Side tangent: I wish Forza Horizon 6, or any Forza game, had motorbikes in it.) Games I already have that do have bikes in them: - Cyberpunk 2077 - GTA IV and V - Burnout Paradise - Just Cause 2 and 3 - Saints Row 2, 3 and 4 -…
neutral · AI labelView post →So, the Saints Row reboot is actually good 3 and 4 still have the tightest gameplay in the series, but the new one still feels good to play. Honestly, I think biggest issue is that it’s a reboot. The game has the same DNA, but these aren’t the saints, for better and worse.
neutral · AI labelView post →I wouldnt mind if Serb and I did a few streams just looking at every Saints Row game because it's a fascinating study of watching a studio lose faith in the thing it was good at.
neutral · AI labelView post →Side note but I'm actually one of the people who likes the direction that 4 and Gat out of Hell took. They turned Saints Row into the best Crackdown/Hulk Ultimate Destruction game ever made
positive · AI labelView post →I know you're all sick of my posts about how underrated the original Saints Row series is but Saints Row 3 is a game released in 2011 about an American city being subjected to Global War on Terror style military occupation on the pretext of stopping crime. Think this aged better than the GTA games.

The game has weird gyro controls where it only work for up-down, not left-right. I tried it for a bit but ended up turning that off and playing normally. Enjoying the game so far, there isn't much of a story though. You just select the level, go in, beat enemies and come back. You keep unlocking more and more stuff though, which gives you a sense…

Cannot stress enough how much this game could've passed as a DLC for Saint's Row 4 rather than its own title. The developers made this game to throw you a bone of what little is left of Saint's Row. Almost the same activities, the gameplay is identical as the previous game. Do have to admit the new hell themed weapons and abilities are cool. The pretty much completely absent story…

neutral · AI labelView post →I know it's a funny way of phrasing it but man I was a real mess in 2010- Saints Row 2 was my comfort game, I wish I could thank the developers at Volition (rip) somehow for helping me out. I was only 17, still obviously figuring a lot of things out, but SR2 was such a brilliant, life saving game.
positive · AI labelView post →"Why don't you care about GTA?" Because sandbox game already peaked with Saints Row 4.

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I mean, *Saints Row IV* had a female protagonist (though you could optionally play a guy) and there's a stripper scene where YOU(R CHARACTER) strips to *Simply Irresistible* and you do QTEs (since those were all the rage back then) to dance more effectively. I looked on YouTube and only one person made a video of it and everyone else is just reposting that one... and it's the guy. So that's a bit weird. YouTube is funny like that. Anyway, it happened, saw it on my own Xbox anyway.

I knew something was up with that series long before Rowling was outed as a TERF. The whole "Americans are too dumb to know what a Philosopher's Stone is" never sat right with me. Then like a year later *Fullmetal Alchemist* became one of the biggest anime series, with a story based around the philosopher's stone, so the *Potter* franchise looked really dumb, but they kept the US-only title.
