I would have probably bought it if it were on steam but alas it was not and turned out to be mediocre anyway. Loved the original series

It is on steam but seriously dont buy it spend your money on literally anything else Saints row 2 on GoG works perfectly idk if the steam one does

The PC port unfortunately has horrendous audio quality and has some framerate issues because they coded it specifically for the X360 and PS3. Wish I still had my 360 and that game. The cutscenes were incredible, especially when my character was a fat Asian lady with sideburns, voiced by a British man.

It's available for backwards compatibility for Xbox One, and possibly the Series if you have one of those.

I played Saints Row 2 on Steam and it worked fine, at least on Linux. Likewise for Saints Row: the Third, though the OG one crashed on me but the Remastered was totally fine. Both games are great. SR2 is kind of like GTA SA (but not quite as good imo), and SR3 takes the general concept to the absurd extreme (and apparently SR4 is even more ridiculous).

I've never played any others but SR4 is great, super ridiculous

They meant the reboot, mate

No, they said: the reboot isn't worth it, get the originals. They work fine and are fun.

I bought it. It was meh. Low effort filler compared to SR2, or the slap stick over the top weirdness of 4

Good riddance. Hope the community manager running their xitter never gets another job like that again.

What did they do

Antagonised long time series fans on twitter on the official account months before the game released

I didn't play the original ones that much but I had no idea there was a reboot.

I tried it when it was free on psplus and yes, it's trash. I liked how well you could create your character but that's it
