Even before you unlock some of the elaborate powers Saints Row IV has to offer, your relationship with the city around you completely changes.
Just hearing Nolan North – one of many voices you can choose for your charismatic avatar – spewing out secondary school-level one liners and swearing like a trooper is far more hilarious than it has any right to be.Īfter a while, Saints Row IV stops feeling like a ‘GTA clone’ (a term that hasn’t applied to this series for years) and starts playing more like Xbox-exclusive Crackdown. The next, you’re piloting a spaceship through an alien mothership – naked, naturally – while Haddaway’s ‘ What Is Love’ blares like the ’90s banger it truly is. One moment you’re climbing a nuclear weapon while Aerosmith’s ‘ I Don’t Wanna Close My Eyes’ croons in the background. Want to fight off zombie hordes? Star in your own sci-fi B-movie? Have tank battles while in freefall? Check, check and check.Īnd from its earliest moments, right through to the roll of its credits, Saints Row IV: Re-Elected never lets that grin slip from its face. Want to throw yourself into oncoming traffic and ragdoll your way to insurance riches? It’s got you covered. While GTA tempers its acerbic tone and pop culture devotion with a firm set of in-game rules, Volition’s open-world series has always aired towards the silly and the slapstick. Captured on Nintendo Switch (Handheld/Undocked)įew games do ‘fun’ with as much enthusiasm and self-awareness as Saints Row.
