In most games, killing a group of enemies is routine, even rote. But in Saints Row IV , you'll find yourself facing a dizzying amount of choices. Should you gun them down with small-arms fire? How about blowing them up with rockets, or using weird alien weaponry to disintegrate them?

+ Superpowers offer exhilarating new ways to annihilate enemies and explore Steelport; + Cleverly written gags and a satisfyingly goofy storyline poke fun at other games and

- Riddled with annoying bugs; Recycles, ? All this trapped-in-a-virtual-world stuff, and not one jab at

In the next open-world installment of Saints Row, Deep Silver Volition continues the story of the Third Street Saints by elevating their status to the highest level – the leaders of the free world. In Saints Row IV, the head honcho of the Saints...

Over-the-top fun and humor; Memorable moments; Co-op

Back in Steelport; Minor game issues

The Saint's Row crew is back for another adventure, but things are a little different this time around. Volition has cranked the over-the-top antics to its fullest to provide gamers with the most outrageous, raucously good time the series has seen in its four-game history.

Over-the-Top Action; Customization

None

After Saints Row: The Third , it was hard to imagine how this series of increasingly zany open-world crime games could possibly get any zanier. Rather than attempting to tackle that challenge head-on, Saints Row IV sidesteps it by being an almost completely different type of open-world game.

Fun movement and combat abilities; Wild story missions; Some very funny writing

Combat grows dull despite your varied powers; Monotonous setting

It is over-the-top, wacky and downright nonsensical. There isn't much that makes a heck of a lot of sense. There are many WTF moments and other instances where I am questioning the path the developers are taking me on. There are even some occasions where I say to myself: "that sh*t was f$cked up".

Saints Row IV picks up where ‘The Third' left off, sort of. It's set a few years after ‘The Third' and after a very daring stunt to disarm a nuke in the prologue mission, you go from the most powerful gang member to the most powerful man in the world, thus becoming the President of the United States...

Super weapons are fun to use; Always something to do in the open world; Game doesn't take itself too seriously; Nostalgic quests are superb; Audio logs give an insight in to characters; Sometimes feels like it could have been an expansion; Some small glitches here and there

I knew what to expect when I started Saints Row IV. Developer Volition's 2011 hit Saints Row: The Third is a celebration of brash and stupid humor with solid mechanics and a good variety of activities. Saints Row IV is just that with superpowers. The sequel (due out Aug.

Deep into Saints Row IV; I already knew I was playing a very funny game; but I muttered a soft "uh; oh" as I came to a moment where I thought the writers were going to try to get away with repeating a joke from Saints Row: The Third.

Saints Row IV crashed three times for me; I'm playing the Xbox 360 version; A colleague playing the PC version confirmed that he also experienced some bugs but no crashes; The crashes, which completely locked up my system and required me to manually turn off the console, were by far the biggest...

The Saints Row series has come a long way since its introduction in 2006. The series follows the adventures of the 3rd Street Saints gang and their boss, who is a fully customizable character controlled by the player.

"...[Saints Row IV] just happens to be one of the greatest superhero games ever made." "...there are tons of great new ways to gain cash and XP, and the sheer variety prevents any of them from feeling too bland." "You'll be a bit let down by the lack of standout plot moments..." "...

Incredible superpowers; Funny parodies of games; genres; and tropes; Just how much there is to do in Steelport

Not enough memorable story missions; Generic alien enemies; Technical hiccups

This game is awesome, i love the dubstep gun. The best saints row ever.
