By far I want SR4 more than next gen consoles right now.

Sony or MS couldn't make anything look that great.

Keith David as "motherfucking" Keith David would have worked really well too.

It's not too late, you can still send him her number.

A few things:

1.) They actually tried the dramatic route with the first 2 games, so it's a bit weird how they're mocking it now.

2.) I still don't like how much they changed Shaundi for the third game.

3.) That Keith David joke is basically a rehash of Burt Reynolds from the last game.

Did you watch the whole trailer? They brought Old Shaundi back! Nasty dreads and all.

I think the implication of Shaundi's change in SR3 is that she went the full Kardashian once they became celebrities. Also I don't think there was anything remotely dramatic about the first 2 games, lest we forget the spray Stillwater with raw sewage game type.

@korwin: Well, the first two games still tried to tell a serious story, betrayal, in-fighting and all.

While i'm not as keen as you to throw my cash at SV4, I do agree they've changed my mind about it.

So I'm guessing that Eliza Dushkuis back on board.

I wasn't really sure about Saints Row IV until I saw this trailer.

Now my hype is through the roof.

Exactly my thoughts. Everything before this has looked so disappointing, but this trailer really turned me around.

If they address the padding issue that SR3 had I am sold. Also if the city can match Stilwater.

I really liked the earlier trailers, but this one is just magic. It looks like they cut the stupid dildo bat fart jokes and professor genki murder time fun time crap, and focused on what made the 3rd special like the deckers die mission. Seems like they have a true understanding of it's appeal now. Good for them.

They should of called this Saints Row III: II and referred to it as Saints Row "5".

That's genius though for real

I can’t explain it there’s just something about this game. It all just seems like something a little kid with ADD would put together. It’s just so unfocussed

I mean I would be fine if we had this really serious premise but the whole way through the story it was all jokes but...after seeing the game, no still not soled. I mean, a dub step gun, ripping off all the gameplay from Prototype I just can’t get into this.

No even that’s not saying it right. I still can’t quite articulate what it is that snags me about this.

Interesting to see they brought Keith David back.

@north6: Matrix like,Mass Effect like (blame Keith David),HL2 like(?) with alien overlords and everything, we need more info! (Also Masters of the Universe with Skeletor look-a-like)

And is the Price & Kinzey bit spoofing the Xcom shooter that got scrapped? Maybe not Pierce but Kinzie is right there. Also the "singularity" gun after Keith David bit reminds me of it.

I really hope Volition is smart enough to have recorded him saying, "CHIEF!" in every other line.

FUCK. Two things I thought I'd never see in SR again together in one SR (SR2 Shaundi and Keith David). This just keeps getting better and better.

I don't know guys, this almost looks TOO DUMB. I enjoyed III a lot but I fear it might be getting TOO cartoony, and without ANY sense of realism it might start to appeal to me less.

The last few SR4 trailers have been pretty lackluster, but this one was just fantastic. I should probably play one of all those copies of SR3 I've bought now.

@khidi: Oh, that didn't get scrapped. It's called The Bureau: XCOM Declassified, and they're totally still working on it. But I didn't make the connection until you pointed it out.
