I'm over the SR series after SR2. SR3SR4 is so off the wall that they lost a lot of their original fan base. Granted GTAIV basically did the same thing with going with the ultra realistic approach. At least GTAV is going back to its roots while SRIV is digging them and tossing them in the trash.
LOL!
SR4 is in the same competition of Crackdown, Prototype, and Infamous.
Honestly fans of SR/SR2 are not going to like SR4. It seems like GTAV is the spiritual sequel of SR2 that we've been waiting for.
It never was.
Why do ppl always label the first 2 games GTA clones. Yet with SRIV no ever calls it a Crackdown, Infamous, or Prototype clone?
Notice TheGameScouts never said it was better than SR2. I honestly think all the people who loved SR3 will love SRIV, but people who love SR/SR2 aren't too excited about this game. Actually a lot of the people I know who liked SR/SR2 is kind of done with the series at this point. I still give the series a chance with SR5.
I'll wait for it to go on sale or just rent it. I'm still waiting for the true sequel to SR2.

Has anyone checked out that new GTAV site? All those videos and images really reminds me of the things SR2 did. I'm wondering if Rockstar is showing what the game has, but also trying to get the SR/SR2 fans back into the series?
I agree! I still play SR and SR2, but SR2 is what I play the most. It says a a lot that I'm still playing two games that are 7 yo (SR) and 5 yo (SR2), yet I haven't touched SR3 for over a year.
Hopefully this story is better than SR3's, but that really isn't saying much with how horrible SR3 story was.
I'm glad you lasted that long because I honestly stopped playing that game some time in January 2012. Yet I'm still playing SR2 to this day.

Whatever helps them sleep at night.
Stopped caring about SR series after 2. I'm a big GTA fan (fan since the 2D era), but SR2 has my favorite sandbox city so far. SR3/SR4 seems to destroy what I loved in the SR series. Hopefully GTA V city will be amazing!
I don't understand why Nintendo wouldn't launch this system with some of its big franchises like Mario or Zelda?
Yeah hopefully all PC, PS4, and Xbox1 consumers can enjoy this game.
Hopefully PS4, Xbox1, and PC consumers can get this game.
Saw that coming 2 miles away. They probably because of the mess they did with the whole off screen kill incident.
Sad to see people lose their jobs.
I guess Capcom's whole westernize plan isn't working too good...
Forgot to mention that SR4 is not a open world crime game.
