Not sure how to start off because this game is just insane! I'd like to warn you beforehand that this game has nothing to do with actual saints, in fact this game is far from it! *cough* They have a freaking stipper pole in the White House *cough*

It's like a mixture of GTA, Assassin's Creed, Prototype, and more!
Although, the story itself doesn't really make sense and has tons of loopholes that will make you question the plot again and again. The gameplay is enjoyable, the game mechanics are easy to adapt to, and the number of things you can do in this game apart from the story can keep you occupied for quite some time, and it's even an open world game. Yay.

The downsides would be:
1: Graphics
2: Default stats (once you play the game and bump into a horde of enemies early on, you'll feel my pain)
3: Jumps and wall climbs are not forgiving, and you can get fed up easy
4: Too much unnecessary swearing and adult jokes, which goes a bit over the edge at times

This game is so different from the the previous Saints Row games. For me, I enjoyed this version, and I would recommend this game for casual gamers, as they'd love the slow paced combat and all the crazy and weird things this game has. It even goes for a very cheap price when it's on sale (Even though I got mine for free).
Again, this game does not have anything saint related, evident from how you can have a gang of strippers to back you up!

@chaosbringer42 because it actually was a DLC for SR3, but they decided they want money. Thus gameplay is inconsistent, because it wasn't designed from ground up - they plastered a single DLC over SR3 and made it aritificially long. Most assets are rehashed from SR3 with little to no changes. Plot is incoherent mess because Volition were more busy crying over losing 'Red Faction' franchise (which is set in the same universe as Saint's Row) so they decided to destroy the earth. It's not a bad game, but it wasn't any 'new' game in franchise. It's more like huge standalone DLC. Fun, but dumb. And not exactly worth full price.

This is literally just Saints Row 3 reskinned with the powers from the gat-clone stuff in 3. 4 literally killed the series because it just wasnt that good.

I agree. Also, 100% the game for a fun time.

you forgot the downside that the workshop update makes the game crash to desktop . we were doing fine with mods without the stupid workshop.
