It's not very smart of you to not read five lines down and realizing that there is an existing topic (especially when you're not a new user).

Especially with this attitude:

If it gets released on PC it means only one thing - the game will be crap. They understand already that it won't sell good enough and try to expand onto PC market.

If that's not enuff - look at the vids. CRAP. And 'Uncle Gary' is pathetic.

Stupidest. Fucking. Logic. EVER.

The first one sold nearly 2 million copies, on just one platform. You really think that they're going multiplatform, because they don't think it can perform on just one platform? They're just making it available to more people.

How the everloving fuck anyone can think that more games being available on more platforms is a BAD thing, I will never understand.

more platforms = less time spent on each version. of course it is a bad thing. i dont see gta being released at teh same time as console versions. there is a reason for this.

Exactly. If it's big, it remains an exclusive. If it spreads over everytihg including DS and mobile phones - it's mediocre. They're just trying to fork every penny available because separately the sales for each platform will be laughable.

I really like sr3 and 4. Played 3 couple of times and still want to replay it. 4 only once so far but also want to replay it.

But I still have never finished 1 and 2. I have both on 360 and 2 on steam but pc version is incredibly bad.

are 1 and 2 still good enough games to play on 360 ? Started 1 like a year ago but something else came out and interrupted. Wasnt more than hour in, so would start again

Never played 1, but 2 is my favorite one, it walks the fine line between grounded and over the top.

Saints Row the Third and Saints Row IV were too zany, they focused too much on being over the top that everything else was lacking, repetitive to the max, IMO.

Believable and relatable...Yep, sounds like Call of Duty

It was a terrible port when it first came out. Nasty performance, ugly visuals, just an overall really bad experience.


... still finished it and loved it though Very Happy

~edit~

Here is what the launch was like;

Yeah damn, one of the worst PC ports to date, I still remember the disappointment on my face when I started that 'thing' back then Laughing

Thankfully it's playable now (especially with IdolNinja's mod: http://idolninja.com/sr2.php )

It's a good game indeed, and I agree with EyePatchLives, this is the SR that I enjoyed the most; silly but not too much (with the fourth one being something else entirely).

the xbox 360 is ok , heck the PC port of part 2 is a fucking disaster ... 360 has insane levels of detail and those models look wow , but on PC it looks like a xbox1 game

this game was so good, that so far its the only stuttering game I had to play through. any other game that stutters like that would be insta uninstall.

I wonder if SSD's finally run it stutter free.

yeah guessed so.
will play both on 360 and instal tu updates via usb stick on my 360.
3 and 4 are fantastic ports Thankfully and pc versions are great.
sr1 really have that fantastic early 360 game feel if You know whatvi mean. Still a dick move not to bring first game to pc and poop a port of second

Well that explains a lot and I seem to had a lapse of memory... I actually played it on the PS3 not on pc *ashamed*
It was when I had hooked the PS3 up on my monitor, so guess that's why I thought I played it on PC back then Laughing

My bad!

Guys if you are playing SR2 on PC make sure to install this http://idolninja.com/sr2.php Its not breaking the balance. There are a few versions for every taste but it makes the game way better Wink

Actually in the latest version you were given a configurator to make your own version of the mod, adding and removing what you want.

@MORPHINEUS

Yeah, sadly the launch version was terrible and the official patch didn't make it much better either. IdolNinja's "Gentlemen of Steelport" radically improved the game though the shitty port experience still stuck Sad

If you want to play it as it was intended, there is no need to install this mod. I've finished it around a year ago in coop, worked perfectly and performance was great too (with modern PCs its no problem to run 60 fps at max settings).

Well, I have pretty similar specs (although I have an AMD GPU) and it runned flawlessly here at 60 fps.

Use this to test if the game is running properly: http://idolninja.saintsrowmods.com/sr2/tools/Powertools_Speedup_Stopwatch_Test_v1.2.rar

Bought the game recently, and I couldn't get it running at the proper speed no matter what % speed I tried. Sad

Apparently it works fine in Windows 8, so there's 1 thing that OS is good for.
