The Saints Row and Grand Theft Auto franchises are back to do battle; this time on next-gen systems. In 2013 Volition struck the first blow with their fourth installment of Saints Row beating GTA V to last-gen consoles by only three weeks.

Negatives Not a huge boost in quality Randomly locks up console
