There’s a surprisingly large selection of superhuman powers at your disposal that ranges from using telekinesis to convert any object into a ball of lightning, to setting yourself a blaze so anyone you pass is burnt to a crisp. Running up the side of a building and then hurling yourself at a group of enemies only to set off a nuclear explosion is somehow the most gratifying feeling possible. Mowing down hundreds baddies and even performing exaggerated wrestling moves on them is overwhelmingly satisfying, but it’s only when supernatural abilities come into play that the game really shines. The new creative weapons, for example the Dubstep Gun or the Black Hole Launcher, are an absolute delight, introducing even more chaos in the already frantically comical Saints Row universe. The gunplay remains largely the same including the variety of weaponry that can now be playfully customized into various objects, such as a guitar case rocket launcher. If you’re familiar with the mechanics that were present in Saints Row: The Third, you should have a decent grasp on what to expect here, except superpowers are now introduced. Whether it’s running around in the nude and pile driving an alien into dust, or jumping one hundred feet in the air and flying across the world, Saints Row IV is giving what their fans want: a crazier and even wilder experience that has no equal. Looking to one-up themselves now, the fourth installment features a whole slew of parodies and comical behaviors. The Saints Row series has no doubt seen its share of insanity, but Volition went whole hog less than two years ago, crafting a product that was the definition of over-the-top.
