Add another to the mile long list of game trailers that cut away just as our hero jumps up to attack the giant enemy.

still disappointed that it's pretty much the same city as before. But this preview has gotten me more excited about the gameplay parts at least.

First time I got to see the Dubstep gun in action and I must say I'm not disappointed. That said, those super powers seem like they are going to be more powerful than any of the guns in the game so I foresee them either saving all the powers until the last little bit of the game or me never using the guns. I enjoy the SuperSpeed power though. Seeing it reminded me of playing City of Heroes and how fun it was to just fly/run/jump around the city.

Wow, those 2 guns are so great. If all the weapons are like that I will be impressed.

This actually seems much better than I was expecting and looks like a lot of fun.

Ok if you're gonna turn Saints Row into an InFamous/Prototype hero game I now have a whole new reason to play and enjoy Saints Row, I hope that stuff is available to you at all times. The Third really rubbed me the wrong way but this could be really good.

Man.. that dubstep gun is so brilliantly dumb. I don't even know where the franchise can go from here.

And kudos to the guy for the completely straight delivery, makes it even funnier.

I worry that the super powers are going to negate any need/desire to use the vehicles. Otherwise, looks like a dumb good time.

If that monster truck visible at 01:04 is drivable then they've got themselves a sale. Yeah... like I wasn't getting it the second it was announced.

... and now I'm another 30 seconds in, my dreams have become reality.

There's no shame. They own it and play it straight, which is the only way that joke can work.

This has actually made me feel worse towards this game. Everything they're showing looks exactly the same as The Third: same city, vehicles, interface, clothing, pedestrians, etc. I do hope the story missions in this end up being great because that'll be the only thing that might be able to drag me in.

Thought it looked super uninteresting up until the super powers were shown. Super powers are cool.

Novelty guns like the dubstep gun and the inflator guns look super boring. I like weapons that let you be creative in how you use them and interact with the world. These are just "haha I shot at the guy and his head went big and blew up haha. Lets do that again.". Funny for about the first 5 times you use them. The real hilarity in games comes from being able to manipulate the world in cool ways like blowing up buildings in RF:G using remote charges and the sledgehammer only to have the building fall on top of you.

The open world in saints row always seems so lifeless and dull compared to stuff like GTA4 and aspects of RF:G.

If you can say that about this, you can pretty much say that about any sequel this generation.

So this game is basically everything I wanted but thought was lacking from superhero type open world games, particularly Infamous, and with all the Saints Row humor on top of it?

Fuck yeah!

Been sold on this for a while, but I need to know one thing...

Is the British voice still an option?

Also, I doubt you can, but it would be cool if you could make that mech do the robot in game and not just in the complete screen.

SR4 is looking ok but kinda looks like they are walking a fine line between awesome a falling up its own ass.Hopefully it remains as fun, clever, and bat shit insane as SR3 was and not turn into something that's just dumb. The interface looks a little too similar for what I might have wanted or expected but still looking forward to it... cant wait to see more.
