Ps4 port for saints row 4? Time to throw my ps3 copy to the trade in pile.

 

[Lijik]

Watching the trailer I kind of hope they at least let you import your previous boss or something, it'd be weird to spend the past three games as a mohawked punk girl (or whoever your boss was) and then suddenly "We gotta rescue the boss - you know! This generic guy!" even if its just for a few cutscenes

 

[Piston Hyundai]

High Voltage is working on this, according to the trailer.

 

[Eusis]

A better comparison would be Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon

Yeah, actually now that I saw the trailer. Mirror of Fate is a different genre even though (for better or worse) it adapted the 3D gameplay to a 2D plain, but this looks more like a way to riff off of existing assets in a fun way. And does look to actually be developed by another developer in this case.

I kinda wish they were porting up all the SR games rather than just the fourth, or at least the third and fourth together then 1 and 2 later.

 

[Miles Quaritch]

This is almost absolutely what this is. New Vegas.

New Vegas is a unique situation that has few if any other comparisons within the gaming space. I'd liken this to DSII or something, especially if it turns out pretty good and arguably better than the prior games in its own way, though given the price tag I'm guessing it's more like something like CV Mirror of Fate or whatever.

I'd liken this to Blood Dragon and Freedom Cry personally. They seem to be more in line with what Volition are aiming for with this standalone.

 

[Gestault]

Someone deserves a Nobel Peace Prize for this. My Goodness.

 

[Consequence]

This looks duuuuuuumb and I love it.

 

[antitrop]

I generally find that open-world games don't respect the player's time and it just seems like the devs trying to shove their junk in everyone's face and say "LOOK HOW BIG OUR WORLD IS", so 50% the size of Steelport sounds like the greatest thing ever, to me.

Hello, decent pacing!

 

[statham]

Trailer was awesome. will buy.

 

[Shallwhat]

yes yes YES

 

[Mistah]

LOL so basically a standalone DLC.. gonna skip this one..

 

[Rembrandt]

The Saints Row I know and love is dead.

 

[Miles Quaritch]

Ps4 port for saints row 4? Time to throw my ps3 copy to the trade in pile.

It's standalone. Saints Row 4 isn't coming to PS4 or X1.

Scratch that, I just noticed the other thread.

 

[pelican]

/looks at trailer

/gets very excited.

 

[Evil Beaver]

Game Informer has a trailer
http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/...y-gat-returns-in-saints-row-iv-expansion.aspx

Hahaha! Ok, that actually looks very fun.

 

[kudoboi]

watching that trailer... ill bite for $20

Spoiler

as long as there is steam trading cards for this

 

[antitrop]

Like Far Cry Blood Dragon.

 

[Messi]

Why couldn't they let me play as Shaundi. She is the best character.

 

[Shallwhat]

It's standalone. Saints Row 4 isn't coming to PS4 or X1.

Yes it is. Saints Row 4 Relected or w/e for $30.

 

[BronsonLee]

It's standalone. Saints Row 4 isn't coming to PS4 or X1.

It is now. Just got announced. Saints Row IV: Re-Elected!

 

[NinjaFridge]

I'll be there.

 

[pelican]

edit - already answered.

 

[StanleyStutters]

That trailer is nice. "I'm gonna shoot the Devil in the face."

 

[Piston Hyundai]

The Saints Row I know and love is dead.

I wouldn't go that far. This is clearly a side-project to hold us over for whatever's next.

 

[GeoramA]

The Saints Row I know and love is dead.

.

And re-mastering the worst game of the series doesn't help.

 

[Storm Raider]

Jin is the man.

 

[Catdaddy]

So for PS4/X1 we get SR4 Re-Elected for $30 and then have to pay $20 for new DLC released on the same day. That's a new twist on the re-release train.

Spoiler

I'll buy the DLC at the very least

 

[Jimmyfenix]

Fuck you Satan!

I will get the Standalone DLC.

No need to buy SR4 again!

 

[jediyoshi]

This could be something a 'B team' is working on while the main team is hard at work on the Saints Row reboot/refresh.

This is the case, I didn't catch who the min developers were

 

[Miles Quaritch]

Yes it is. Saints Row 4 Relected or w/e for $30.

edit - already answered.

Yeah, my bad. I only just saw this announcement.

Exciting stuff.

 

[BronsonLee]

The Saints Row I know and love is dead.

Deal with it, jobber!

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

The Saints Row I know and love is dead.

This is way better, from the looks of it.

I hope there's DooM references aplenty.

 

[Messi]

Damn they are quick

 

[SmoothRunningGun]

Ok, but come on guys, make a new game...

 

[Rembrandt]

I wouldn't go that far. This is clearly a side-project to hold us over for whatever's next.

Imo, it jumped the shark with 3. I still enjoyed it, but the second one is easily the best. Give me that with the first one's multiplayer and I would be sold.

 

[Messi]

Jin is the man.

Gat is the man. Can't hear Jin without thinking of Gat anymore.

 

[sunnz]

Hell is said to be roughly 50 percent the size of Steelport

So its literally the smallest open world map to be made, considering steelport was very small anyway?

 

[Ceebs]

I wouldn't go that far. This is clearly a side-project to hold us over for whatever's next.

I think it is clear the series has found an audience and something to set it apart from other AAA open world games with the wacky nonsense and crazy tone. People who keep hoping the series reverts to it's more GTAish roots are just going to be continuously disappointed.

 

[antitrop]

Ok, but come on guys, make a new game...

They probably are.

This is a standalone DLC side project, a la Far Cry Blood Dragon (while Far Cry 4 was being developed).

 

[atomico]

I loved Saints Row 3 and 4 but I kinda had enough with the franchise (or maybe with open world games altogether) for a while.

 

[esterk]

I may get it solely based on that hilarious artwork. Way to go Volition.

 

[Shallwhat]

Guys, according to this link: http://blog.us.playstation.com/2014...-hell-coming-to-ps4-ps3-on-1272015/#sf4409105

The $30 Saints Row IV: Re-Elected will include the expansion in it for no added price. What a great deal!

:O

 

[mdubs]

Cool, did not play Saint's Row 4 but will buy for Xbox One.

 

[Mass_Pincup]

Looks like Deep Silver is going to milk that franchise hard like with Dead Island.

 

[antitrop]

[I Wanna Be The Guy]

Why couldn't they let me play as Shaundi. She is the best character.

Only when she was voiced by Faith.

 

[Chris R]

Standalone?

$20?

Day 1 on PS4 baby!

 

[Death Metalist]

Hmm I see they opted for the Ubisoft approach on this game, nothing wrong with that. Will get it Day 1, love me some SR on next gen especially if it's something new and not a remaster.

That's a great deal. I'll likely get the 360 version for my own co-op purposes, but that is very tempting.
