What destroyed the immersion for me was how he caught the woman. That part was so unrealistic!

I like the ambition of it but I can't say the combat actually looks like any fun.

That was the most ridiculous, crazy, and interesting trailer I've seen in a while.
 
I've never had any interest in the Saints Row series, but I think I may need to check this game out.

Haha, so bad. I'm still looking forward to playing this for the ruhdonkydonk gameplay, but ouch, those cutscenes are prime gaggers. I get the whole so-bad-it's-good-thing, but this is just... hoooboy, it's BAD.
 
So I couldn't help but thinking (maybe that's the problem), where did all the dudes with automatic weapons go when the player hopped out from behind cover? I guess they dropped em all (after missing gloriously) and thought, nah fuck it, let's just run at him and get punched.

Even the slightest chance that the godawful Johnny Gat character gets killed early on makes me want this game all the more. His Aish storyline in 2 was rubbish.

@grbear: How dare you slander the great name of Jonny Gat. Gat will come for you and beat you to death with his bobblehead of himself.

I'll be honest, the shooting doesn't look amazing, but everything around it looks like the craziest shit ever in the best way possible.

The way he talks to himself reminds me of John McClane, which I like. This looks like the action movie a 12 year old would make if they were given unlimited money and time, I love it.

This trailer is for people who didn't really want to enjoy that entire sequence for themselves.
 
Also, talking animations are garbage here.

YEAH, WELL, THIS FOOTAGE LOOKS AMAZING, BUT

*pedantic rationale for why exaggerated action scenes are a bad thing*

*ridiculous sweeping judgment of intended audience based on trailers/screenshots*

*armchair game-designer manifesto on why SR2 vs. GTAIV is not an apples-and-oranges situation*

*triumphant click of "Post Reply" button, followed by return to playing Golden Sun: Dark Dawn on an emulator*

looks really cool. i wish the "fly through the plane's cockpit to its cargo exit" part was interactive though.

Wouldn't really be THAT hard to do, would it? It's just like the skydiving, but in the plane..

I liked the first game, wasn't too impressed with the second, although the coop was pretty cool. 
 
But this? Third time's the charm. This game looks batshit crazy. In a good way. I can't wait.

This first sequence seems a lot different than the first Saints Row game, I'll tell you that much. I don't know anything about the second game, but the first was more or less a poor man's GTA (before the fourth one was released anyway).

To the point where it's just plain fun. I couldn't help but laugh at all the laws being broken.
