    So many of you already know that the Saint's Row: The Third expansion pack "Enter The Dominatrix" was cancelled and plans were made to have it turned into a full blown sequel. Now we have news that (much to my delight) the next Saint's Row game will be released August 20, 2013 for North America, August 23, 2013 for the rest of the world. This August release is for CURRENT GEN CONSOLES and PC.



    Teaser Trailer below:

    Personally I am excited for the next installment of Saint's Row. I was actually talking about this with a friend the other day and it's great that I didn't have to wait long before some news rolled in. Kinda "eh" about it still being set in Steelport as I was hoping for a new location but you never know. The thing about Enter The Dominatrix is that the Saints are put in a virtual reality version of Steelport from what I understand so things will be a lot more ridiculous this time around (considering how they are adding SUPERPOWERS). Saint's Row 2 was probably my favorite in terms of balanced gameplay/craziness/story, but I loved Saint's Row: The Third for its graphical improvements and smoothness, etc. Are you guys excited for it/which is your favorite Saint's Row? I figured I'd get sort of a discussion going (LOL). Also do you think this timing is good? Considering how GTA V is now pushed back to September 17, 2013 and Saint's Row is a more ridiculous version of GTA.

    I'll most likely get this at a bargain price. Saints Row the Third was fun, over the top, mad and generally just enjoyable.
    I just don't really.... get it. I prefer GTA out of the two. It's losing a lot of it's roots by the looks of it. Still additions seem interesting.

    Just in case anyone wanted to check this out, Deep Silver created a survey of sorts asking players what they would want in their Saints Row IV Collector's Edition..besides a bloody torso from Deep Silver's Dead Island Collector's Edition. You can check it out over here. Rate each item on a scale of HELL NO! to AWWWWW YEAH!

    Some of the things are pretty funny, like the kinky handcuffs. I could always use a pair of those.

    Also, some new information from PAX has been coming in, under the spoiler below is information about some of the superpowers/weapons:

    Superpowers:
    • Speed-running - Run at fast speeds for long distances smashing through cars and people.
    • High jumps - Jump to the top of skyscrapers.
    • Telekinesis - Pick up and throw people/things with your mind.
    • Freeze blast - Freeze people then shatter them into tiny pieces.
    Guns:
    • Inflato Ray - Seen in the trailer, inflate until people explode.
    • Dubstep gun - Yes, you get to kill people with dupstep.
    • Mech suits - Also seen in the trailer, you stomp around in a mech and shoot guns.
    *You can also skin your gun - for example, one of the characters had their weapon skinned as a guitar case*

    This is.... I dunno, madness, I can't believe this has happened to special editions. Are they making a profit or....? This is stupid.
