Article says nothing about any 'improvements' just like the 'improvemens' to all the other PS3 ports from the 360 which look horrible on the PS3...Fight Night Round 3 and Ridge Racer 7 anyone?

R34GTR7054d ago

Ridge Racer 7 had improved physics and the addition of slipstreaming and I think the car customizations thing was new as well. Either way Ridge Racer is just a weak game. And FNR3 is controversal i have heard plenty specualtion thats said the PS3 character models are better. Maybe this is why FNR3 for PS3 and the Trailer from Assassing Creed where both nominated for a graphical achievement award. Im sure people remember that article that was on Gamespot a while back. You should of ran with COD3 & Tony Hawk Project 8. those ports sucked.

andy capps7054d ago

Not surprising. This has been a rumor for a long time anyway. I'm tired of this type of game but I know a lot of Playstation fans will enjoy the GTA style gameplay. Anyway, maybe I'll check out the demo if they put one out.

shotty7054d ago

Enjoy..its a good game, atleast now tallegale nights can be taken out of the system ;)

PS360PCROCKS7054d ago

why thq? This is the stupidest decision they could have done. If they think this is going to sell at all their not very intelligent. GTA is out in October, that's 9 months away, why would anyone buy this game if GTA is out so soon?

Arkham7054d ago (Edited 7054d ago )

Probably because one could finish, replay, and get everything they want out of that game within 9 freakin' months' time. It's not that great of a game.

Jrocks_4_ever7054d ago

Another game coming to ps3 from x360 and I dont see any ps3 fans saying that this is a needed game for playstation. Now if this was the other way around...........i think you guys get the picture...lol

It looks like the tides are turning....but of course x360 fans will ignore that side of the story..........

andy capps7054d ago

More games is always a plus and I'm pretty sure the game will sell well on PS3, but it's just not my type of game anymore. I've just grown tired of GTA style games, and I won't be buying the next GTA either. Now, if/when news comes out about some games for 360 that I'm actually interested in like Mass Effect and Bioshock (this one is already rumored to be PS3 bound), then I'll be happy.

I would be interested in a Saints Row 2 Remake.

Alos8890d ago

I would agree... if the old Volition was still around to do it.

Abnor_Mal90d ago

I just started this game last night, just the player creation had me upset. You choose male but they stand like a female. Eyebrows are all effeminate, face, and verything seems to be modeled after a female with a thin male overlay.

I only played the opening and didn’t even complete that before I turned the game off. I will likely go back and try it again, but a very weird first impression.

Huey_My_D_Long90d ago

You sound super weak to be upset by a character creator ngl

ChunkyMonk90d ago

welcome to your average n4g daily user lol

chicken_in_the_corn90d ago

I'm not surprised after the backlash and hatred the last one got.

1nsomniac90d ago

The franchise has been complete utter garbage for almost 20 years. The first one was the only decent game of the lot of them.

Huey_My_D_Long90d ago

OMG Thank you! Never understood how people raved about Saints Row like it was GOATED.
Honestly Janky Generic feeling titles with Humor that tried to way too hard. People criticize Borderlands for its humor, but holy hell, still leagues better than any SR.

isarai_lee90d ago

Kinda dumb they asked for his pitch then ghosted him, the concept sounded dope

Saints Row director is pitching a prequel that gets 'back to the roots of what made SR entertaining'

Somehow, Saints Row returned. Well, kind of. In a giddy post on the Saints Row subreddit, a lead on the original game in the Saints Row series announced that someone, somewhere might be interested in firing up Volition's (RIP) open-world crime games once more.

RaidenBlack202d ago

OR ...
remake the first one but 1:1, very minimal changes ~ QoL changes that are necessary or beneficial

PhillyDonJawn202d ago

If we wanted the same game we'd go play it.

jambola203d ago

Please not made in fortnite graphics by whiny petty developers who argue on twitter this time

Goodguy01202d ago

It always boggles my mind how developers like these get their hands on well known IPs and completely butcher it into a terrible mess.

YodaCracker202d ago

Twitter? I think you mean Bluesky.

Lexreborn2203d ago

My problem is I’ve played all of them but probably collectively an hour a piece for each. Never really got into them and always got them on discount. I wonder if that’s just the general consensus on this game. Because doesn’t feel like any of them are really worth it

JEECE202d ago

To me Saints Row is one of those series that got a foothold in people's minds because the first game was in the right place at the right time (I'd put Dead Rising in the same category). In 2006 when the original came out, people were desperate for new games to play on the 360, and people were not nearly as burnt out on open world games as they are now. So the first one filled a void and served as a showcase for a new console that people were very excited about at the time.

Lexreborn2202d ago

I think the funniest thing to me was the Pecker sword in 3 but overall 3 was a pretty terrible game. I tell myself I want to go back and retry the remake of each version and I just don't feel like taking it to 1080p is going to change a pretty mediocre game at it's core

ZycoFox203d ago

Get rid of the regenerating health, or only have a certain food type that regenerates health a bit. Regenerating health + food seems a bit much but just IMO.. I always found that a bit stupid.

1nsomniac202d ago

The first Saints Row was the only good game of the series.

Highly underrated GTA 5 rival is cheaper than a McDonald’s meal on Steam

The wait for GTA 6 is painful, but for less than $6 you can pass the time with the overhated Saints Row reboot on your Steam Deck right now.

This was free on something at some point, so I decided to check it out. It's definitely properly rated.

CDbiggen439d ago

Here I thought I'd never have to be reminded of that slop again
