This thread is for those whom love the saints row games, this is a thread to show when saints row 4 will be released, trailers on this upcoming game.

Some quick background information on the new game:

Saints Row is a video game franchise created by Volition, Inc. and published by Deep Silver. Typically, gameplay is presented in open world format. Because of the mixture of nonlinear gameplay with action-adventure and racing sequences, the series is referred to as being sandbox style.
After completing Red Faction II in late 2002, developer Volition began work on the original Saints Row game in mid-2003. The game was released in 2006 to critical acclaim and commercial success. The sequel, Saints Row 2, was released in 2008 to similar acclaim but greater commercial success. The series' third entry, Saints Row: The Third was released on 15 November 2011. As of April 2013, the series has had unit sales in excess of eleven million, making it a best-selling video game franchise.

Official overview of the game from 'Game':

They've taken on rival gangs and the Ultor Corporation. They've survived missions to Mars and Professor Genkis Super Ethical Reality Climax. So obviously the only place the Third Street Saints could go next is the Presidency of the United States. Saints Row IV sees the Saints return for their craziest instalment yet as their leader become the leader of the free world. And soon that's not just a clever name as the Saints are the only thing that stand between Earth and the invading Aliens known as the Zin, who transport them to a bizarre simulation of Steelport where the action really knows no limits!

This new alien playground means that you have new alien toys to play with. Saints Row IV introduces even more new weapons to the Saints Row saga, each in-keeping with the tongue-in-cheek, larger-than-life fighting style that has become the series' trademark. For starters there's the Inflat-O-Ray, which will inflate an enemies head to cartoon proportions before exploding with a satisfying pop. Or there's the Dubstep Gun that lets you fire a wobbly wubwub that will start your enemy dancing until they literally cant dance anymore! There's also the alien mechs, jump-jet powered fighting machines that take you to an arcade-y sub-game where you have to cause as much carnage as you can and then dance the robot in victory!

Saints Row IV also brings super-powers to the Third Street Saints and typically, they will have lots of fun with them! Run faster than a jet fighter and leap tall buildings with a single, er, leap! Use telekinesis to hurl cars and tanks at your enemies, or just freeze them with your blast power! And just like your normal weapons, you can quickly and easily switch your powers in the heat of battle.

And you'll need all these new weapons and powers to take on the deadly alien threat of the Zin. Led by evil ET godfather Zinyak, the skies of Steelport are thick with the invading forces, who look like they've been ripped straight from a sci-fi B-movie. The Zin come in all shapes and sizes, meaning they will be more than a match for your new toys and abilities and deadlier than anything the Saints have faced before.

Saints Row IV lets you go as wild as the game itself with a full array of customisation options for both your weapons and your powers. From character creation to the pimping of your ride and the sprucing up of your weapons, there are all kinds of options both at the start of the game, and to be unlocked as you play. After all, who doesn't want a guitar case rocket launcher?





Saints row 4 producer explains why silliness sells:

Not so long ago, Gears of War designer Cliff "Cliffy B" Bleszinski suggested that the wacky nature of the Saints Row games were holding the series back, and that a more down-to-earth approach would make the franchise more appealing.

Developer Volition clearly didn't pay any attention, as the upcoming Saints Row 4 finds the one-time street gang, Third Street Saints, now elected to the White House and tasked with foiling an alien invasion. An astute and thoughtful exploration of the ramifications of violence in society, this ain't.

"Ultimately I don't think that Saint's Row's tone gets in the way of bigger sales," senior producer Jim Boon has told OXM. "If anything, I think our tone is an element of our success. Saint's Row is quite unlike anything else out there, and I think gamers crave unique experiences - I know I do. We have a lot of passionate fans that love SR, so I think we are striking the right chord."

He goes on to explain the game's appeal in terms of movie comedy. "Thinking of a movie series like The Hangover," Boon continued. "People love the humour but you might not want to discuss some of the finer moments of those movies with your mom, for example. I think the same might be true for SR. We do get an awful lot of feedback from fans telling us much they love our juvenile tone - with some asking us to go even further!"
