Seems like Saints Row: The Third - Remastered is finally a thing and hitting PS4/XBO on May 7
- Thread starter vestan
- Start date
They should just make a proper collection at this point, game's been sub-5$ a billion times between PC and last-gen consoles and is backwards compatible on X360. Shouldn't have bought that horribly optimized Switch version with the terrible Joy-Cons :(
Saints Row IV PS4/X1 remaster was very disappointing, the port is quite poor. Don't expect much from this one.
IMO SR2 was the perfect sweet spot between the the first game that took itself too serious an the third one that took things a little too far.
I wonder if they are actually remastering anything or if they are just bringing the PC's maxed out settings to current gen consoles.
i'm pretty sure they are working on a new port of SR2 for PC since they found the source code so i wouldn't be surprised if it shows up else where as well
as for SR1, i mean it would be nice to have it on other systems even if that game is bland as hell and doesn't have any of the charm of the series
If I remember correctly, new SR2 build is planned to be released on PC later this year, alongside DLCs that were never released on this platform. So this is a first step. I'm aware SR1 was blandest and simplest game in the series, but I would love to try it nontheless. Who knows, maybe new Saints Row game from Volition is a reimagining of a first one? Because to be honest, they can't go even more over the top after Saints Row IV (or can they?).
theres only one game in the series that is fundamentally broken and deserving of a remaster and its the one that keeps being ignored

Saints Row 2 PC port getting a patch to fix performance issues PC
Volition found the source code for the original outsourced PC release, which is now being fixed by a two-man team of Mike "IdolNinja" Watson and Thomas "Minimaul" Jepp, two of the modders responsible for the Gentlemen of the Row supermod. Some of the fixes/updates mentioned in the stream as well...

1) pc only and 2) "nothing yet"
While I did enjoy the third one very much and it deserves a remaster, I am curious when they will announce their next game. Mostly curious to see if they can go even crazier than SR4.
They were teasing SR5 announcement for this year. But who knows. It's been few years since Agents of Mayhem, so 2021 release isn't that far-fetched.

"keeps being ignored"
Volition held a whole 11 year anniversary livestream for SR2 talking about their plans to completely overhaul the awful PC port and this overhaul is being helmed by the two dudes who made the GotR mod.
This was only possible because they found the source code which was lost in the bankruptcy auction and it paves the way for a potential remaster for ALL platforms in the future. I'd say that's hardly being ignored at all especially as THQ Nordic have a penchant for bringing older games to newer hardware.
Yeah no shit, it's being worked on by two dudes. This takes time especially taking into account the scope of the overhaul + the horrible state of the PC port + the fact that SRV is currently in development meaning they can't dedicate as much resources to getting it out there quicker as obviously the game that's set to be announced soon takes priority.
Well, hopefully, it is better than Agents of Mayhem, especially the side missions.
After aliens, Saints will fight cosmic gods or travel in time. Or both.
I totally agree. Agents of Mayhem was a really weird and uneven game. In my opinion, it would work much better as a co-op shooter or a Mass Effect-like RPG with creating your character and managing a team of agents. It was obvious Volition was struggling with a direction they wanted to take with this project and didn't had enough time to realise their vision. Hopefully they will nail it with their next game and take Saints back to their roots.
i mean they could always run with one of the other endings from gat out of hell with them trying to colonize a planet, other wise i am very interested to see where they go with this series
there is no progress reports so far cause the team working on it is quite small and i'm sure it will show up outside of PC once it's done, they just wanna make up for putting out such a bad PC so that's why it's the PC version they are working on first
The Switch version didn't so probably not other than the character creation sharing system being made accessible offline so you can get that last trophy/achievement.
IV is, but III isn't
I think I read IV wasn't a great port though
Edit: III may be playable on XB1 through BC but I'm not sure
Is IV that bad on current consoles, or is it just that they didn't do much to take advantage of the power jump from last gen to this yet?
Like, if it runs at 1080 and 30 locked that's disapointming, but probably way better than how it was on 360/PS3
I thought this was already a thing. Must have been thinking of 4. I hope this runs better than that does at least.
A whole generation without a new Saints Row is such a missed opportunity.
This.
Cool, I adored this game, definitely down to experience it again.
Need SR5 so badly. Can't believe we've gone a generation without Saints Row after 5 (!) games on 360/PS3.

i thought this was the case aswell but i guess that was IV
but i honestly coulda swore it was 3 also
SR4 takes place in what is essentially The Matrix. The environment glitches out at times. (In other words that is happening on purpose.)
SR3 is starting to become the next Skyrim.
Lets not even get started with the "Sequel" which was just full priced DLC. A true Bethesda move all around

That's actually a gif of Saints Row 4, which had weird glitch effects like that.
