Looks very promising if you're into open world games. Q4 11 looks very interesting for gaming titles ;)

[1000possibleclaws]

It looks like a parody of the GTA series, I can't see this as a serious 'GTA killer'

[d1sc0]

Looks ridiculous indeed. Could be fun though, I'm not really sure.

[dogcodeo6]

looks hellov a lot funner than GTA IV

[mr. nails]

i don't understand teh appeal to these types of games.

[technoman]

these are my type of game. Cant wait for them both. They are both good in there own way.

Before I consider stealing this I want to know if I will be hunted down like an animal like they are doing to the people who stole Modern Warfare 3.

I mean I still have a few places to hide like up in the attic and behind the Dogwood in the backyard but all in all I'd prefer to save those places for my more serious crimes.

Also it's somewhat ironic that I used to be able to play far better games with a lot less computer.

I find it ironic that you care about the law when you're contemplating on stealing a game where a player is involved in suspect criminal activities. Should be interesting to at least see the ESRB of this, I have a feeling this game won't even make it to our shores.

As you probably know if there isn't any eye candy, bullets flying past your head or textures that won't make your Gfx card smoke on the intro, kids these days won't buy it! Hence why your 'puter needs more of it ;)

As with any video game, 3D quality scales to system performance. Building a high end gaming system a bit ago used to cost a lot of money (relative to standard system). I think that price gap has shrunk considerably. I guess my point is, it's still easy to meet the minimum requirements and not too difficult anymore to meet the recommended.



I thought Saints Row 1 & 2 were GTA killers??? Is GTA Danny Greene or something?

[MrJonny]

The game looks verry nice. I must pre-order it. Thanks ^_^

This will be one of the most fun games of 2011, and perhaps one of the most fun games of the last decade.

It's a big claim, but one I'm confident of being spot on.

[killuminati96]

I tried to play Saints Row 2 (PC) and hated it every time I tried. I've been playing the GTA games for a decade. They're always good.

[JubbaTheHutt]

I'm pretty tempted to try this out. Apparently the PC version is NOT a port and handles very well.
