So, the new artwork that came out is actually pretty bitchin'.

Looks like Matt Miller in the back behind Pierce, and Shaundi
next to Kinzie (ugh) on the bottom, with Viola at the back. I
like the eagle crest. Looks like an old school action movie. Too
bad the real game will be nothing like that. I remember the
rooftop helipad promo pics for SR3 that made it look like a
slick crime action game filled with booze, money and guns. This
artwork looks like some Dark Knight Rises type shit. And what
are we ACTUALLY getting? Saints Row 3 with aliens. No new city,
no new graphics, nothing.

Look at games now a days. CoD Black Ops 2 has a new system where
if you want something in multiplayer you can buy it. If you want
more slots for things on your guns you can buy them with real
money. Battlefield 4 is implementing a system where you can do
that with EVERYTHING in game. If there's a god weapon in game
because of a glitch, you'll be able to buy it and keep if. If
you want to level up quickly, you will be able to buy a
character that is max leveled with all the unlocks and perks
that go with it. Want to be on the leader boards? You can buy a
spot on them.

Gaming has always been about money. But the game makers used to
give a fucking shit about their product. Look at GTA V and games
like Watch Dogs. They look incredible. Because they took their
time with it, made it the best it can possibly be. Now look at
SR IV. Fuck sake, it's just DLC made into a full game. There's
literally nothing major changed other than some flying alien
ships and more cartoony antics. Even IGN said in their Rewind
Theater that it looks like it could be SR3.
I mean, this is hitting new lows here.

The description for SR4 doesn't even sound like a new game. It
still sounds like a DLC pack for SR3, and it looks like it too.
SR4 has all the ingredients needed to be a massive bomb:
No innovation from previous installment? Check
Little to no new gameplay? Check
Recycled game assets? Check
More terrible writing and insultingly immature content? Check
Rushed development time? Check
Release date a mere 3 weeks before the release of the highly
anticipated next installment of the biggest sandbox title in the
business? Check
Yea, it's going down in flames.
After the worthless waste of money that was SR3, I had a tiny
ray of hope that Volition might realize how terrible SR3 was and
redeem themselves with SR4, but that's gone.
I suppose it was naive to think, even for a second, that anyone
at Volition would actually put forth effort when they could,
instead, hand out crayons to third graders and let them write
the story, AND dialogue no less, and then just plug the third
graders' work into SR3's game engine, and then get back to their
normal routine of spending every day at the office drunk as a
skunk instead of trying to make a good game.

Look at SR and SR2, how the city changed. In SR Stilwater was
just a small little town and in 2 it was HUGE and awesome. There
was so much to do and I spent literally COUNTLESS hours just
driving around. I never got bored of SR2, never. SR3? I got
bored of it by the 2nd mission in. Do you know how many times I
beat SR2 start to finish? 3 times. That's it... I had more than
1000 hours in my very first save game for SR2 and the other two
were no different. Why did I play again? Because of how much
replay value the game had. It took for fucking ever to beat that
game. SR3 it took me 4 hours to beat start to finish. 8 hours to
do all the story missions and the side mission/mini games. More
than 1000 hours for one and less than 10 for another. The series
went from the rise to power of gang to whatever it is today. I
was looking forward to SR3 until I played it... It wasn't even
like a bad joke, but a nightmare. How fucking stupid it was.

I'm actually more inclined to support the over the top action if
it wasn't so fucking cartoonish. I love over the top action. I
was one of the people giving crazy ideas for SR3 before it was
even announced. I was giving out shit like flying jet boards and
flying helicarrier-like fortresses to be used as cribs. Hell,
one of the only things I loved about SR3 was the Specter. I love
shit like that. I mean if they turned SR IV into, like, making
The Saints into Cobra from G.I. Joe and making them fight whole
countries, I'm all for it. So the opening bank robbery, plane
mission, and the national guard armory raid were pretty kickass
missions to me. But as long as it's not stupid bullshit. But
when you fuckin' introduce aliens and shit like this

You just lose me. Everyone here knows I hate TheFitnessGuru3 on
the SRF. But one thing I can agree with him on is that the
series needs to evolve as it goes on. The first two games are
about gangs. And they were both great, so it makes sense to move
onto bigger things. SR3 COULD'VE been that. From how they were
previewing SR3 with it's first "Power" trailer, I thought we
were getting that. Evolution of the Saints. From the projects to
counting billions in pool parties, diamonds, weed, champagne and
a massive criminal empire, while blowing shit up. Flying
executive planes and shit. You know, LIKE ON THE GODDAMN
PROMOTIONAL ARTWORK. Know what I heard when I saw this artwork
for the first time?
HTML http://www.senpaigamer.com/sites/default/files/news/sony/2012/09/25-saints-row-the-third-full-package-2.jpg
All I heard was "Black & Yellow". Rich, successful type shit.
"Yeah, uh-huh
You know what it is
Everything I do, I do it big
Yeah uh-huh
Screaming, that's nothin'
When I pulled out the lot
That's stuntin'
Reppin' up my town
When you see me you know everything
I put it down from my whip to my diamonds
But we got none of that, really. No, instead we got horrible,
unlikeable characters, pointless missions, very few fun ones,
awful story, and really no replay value, in addition to them
killing off Johnny in the worst way possible to insult the fans
(no shit) and killing off the main bad guy we thought was going
to be awesome within the first hour of gameplay and in the most
anticlimactic way. The actual game was so fucking stupid, they
completely misled people. And IF they did that with SR3, they
could've moved on to the Cobra shit in SR4. Evolution.
Am I in favor of laser weapons, flying jet bikes, helicarriers,
and military grade hardware and turning the Saints into a
Cobra-esque group? Yeah.
Do I want dildo bats, farts in jars, cartoony characters,
mollusk launchers, Genki, childish jokes and little to no
seriousness? No.
It's a shame. It really is. Who knows, maybe they'll actually
WORK on SR V. But I doubt it. Like MK said, I actually had a
LITTLE hope in them. Looks like the series is totally dead now.
Final nail in the coffin.

I just know that SR4 needs less wang in my face is a big
disgrace.
How awesome is gtav gonna be, with a large countryside and
ambient wncounters it'll be like playing modern red dead
redemption + there's animals don't know if we'll be able to
hunt.
