As much shit as I give SR3, I liked it's soundtrack.

Good luck finding anything like this now.
Real street rappers and gangstas use inclusive language, refuse to utter barbaric terms like faggot and abstain from using beats that promote a sense of intimidation, dont'cha know?

 

[Dom Cruise]

Booted SR1 up on Xenia and went through the radio stations and heard fucking Motion City Soundtrack and Fallout Boy....good god. The fact that entire era is close-ish to 20 years ago makes me feel I don't know what.

It feels downright unreal to me, it's the kind of thing I can't even think about too much.

You have to get the disk file, make a shortcut with a launch option --protect_zero=false, and it should work
also you must own an xbox controller, the emulator doesn't support m&k
haven't tried a playstation controller but I doubt it works

I meant "how's it work" as "how well does it work", sorry
But thanks!
Literally just started messing with it yesterday but haven't had time to actually set anything up.
Also would a 3rd party Xbox controller work?
I was flip flopping between the Xbox and PS3 emulator for red dead But might as well go for Xbox now.

I'm a filthy heathen and have only played 3, 4 (that was my first

Oh hey you guys noticed how shit the new SR is.
Even on Reddit people ain't letting this pass.
Also RIP IdolNinja, thank fuck he died before the trailer.
Oh and the remastered edition is 100% free on Epic for a while.

Keep in mind that if you want to emulate the 1st game the assassination missions are a pain in the ass, all of that for a golden eagle, play SR2 too with gentlemen of the row as another kiwi said, you can play coop with someone or a willing kiwi .
3 and 4's coop is funny but 2 is even crazier.

Got SR3 Remastered. Man, shit got look much better but, what the fuck, why an FPS lock on cutscenes?

When I saw a news story on A&N about some faggot named "Da Baby" who literally wears a diaper I lost all faith in the streets.

The animations and audio in cutscenes are probably locked to the framerate, like in Skyrim and Fallout 4 where exceeding 60fps breaks the game.
Or...they're pre-recorded video. I haven't played 3 & 4 in like 7 years.

If they're lazy like I think it is, it's because it's set to a specific tech value. You need to do some pokery to get SR2 to run without the cutscenes desynching.

They aren't, else my character would have look like default one in these so, nah.

it's the pre-recorded audio tracks.
faster framerates will cause desync.

Why spend $100 on this reboot to get Saints Row the Third Remastered when PC players can get it for FREE now?

You need an Epic account, but still. That's bad timing.

 

[Marissa Moira]

How much money do I need to pay to get all the characters to resemble Robert Crumb characters?



I mean making everything look like Tumblr is the norm, but if they want to go for the OG stylized realism they should really try to adapt Crumb's style. He's not even racist, look at how diverse the choices are in the upper left.

 

[The Last Stand]

By the looks of it, the German version of Saints Row 2 was heavily censored.

 

[capitalBBustard]

NuSR tonally isn't that far from parts of SR3. Memeshit, quips, Kinzie, scifi shit and cartoon proportions. The intro of SR3 had the hyuk Gat masks and Shaundi being all "dont be a dick", as you are robbing a bank.

That's more an acknowledgement that SR3 was well on its way to flushing the series down the toilet. NuSR is more a natural evolution to 3 than 3 was to 2. So they completely nuked the crassness and replaced it with zoomer wokeshit. Everything else is as terrible as it was 10 years ago.

 

[SiccDicc]

Let me read this "no edgy Saints Row" take on the reboot:

Volition wants to tell a "contemporary" story that people can relate to. Alright, this is off to a great start.

Oh yes, four college students that want to lead their own crime syndicate in a desert town. We've ALL been there before. At least Watch Dogs 2 got around it somewhat with Dedsec being against the corporate computerized overload that is CToS.



What on Earth are they doing being in crime with qualifications like those?


Hahaha, she mispelled spoilt. I've watched that trailer at least five times. I see no relation or similarities between them and the original Third Street Saints. Not even the Third. "Accepts and supports each other," what is this, diversity training? Elementary school?


Bigger isn't always better. You'd think they'd learn that from Ubisoft. With the desert setting, I am expecting lots of dead space with desert and sand inbetween the nine districts to travel through. Pass. I hated that in San Andreas.


Yep, pass. I'm getting Mad Max and Rage vibes with that statement. I do not want to explore a desert with little stuff in between.


Sexism, homophobia in a CRIME OPEN WORLD GAME?

Gee, I sure wish there was an indicator on games that tell you the recommended age range for its content...



The foundation of Saints Row was urban gangsta culture. So, they're sacrificing creative integrity for political correctness and a short-sighted audience. Great. Why not make another IP or a spinoff? No, tack an existing IP onto this mesh and hope it sells on name recognition alone.

I hope this flops. This is NOT Saints Row.

The author of that article is an insufferable faggot, but the comment section is surprisingly pleasant. They're all calling out this shit, except the occasional retard this abortion is pandering to.

There is something that you could play around with this concept of millennials turning to crime; that they approach it in the most millennial way possible. You could have missions where you have to find the most ethically sourced cocaine supplier, or attempts to recruit a diverse gang leads you into firefights with black and latino gangs. The irony to this is that the millennial gang actually succeeds because they want everything to safe and inclusive. They run co-op sex work brothels, provide ESL to immigrant gangs members, sell fair trade heroin, etc. By the end, your character is rich, profiting off of the destruction and violence in the city and thinking that it is ok because your gang is diverse and inclusive.

A bit more of a dark satire than a comedic one on how millennial wokism doesn't change the system, it merely gives it a veneer of progress. Perhaps to make it more comedic, make the street cred as experience system of the other Saints Row games into a social media system. You have to respond to online outrage such as shutting down a Klan rally, "cancelling" a high profile target, or searching for a transgender influencer's missing dildo. This could be played with as well, such as a shutting down a white supremacist speaker where the speaker turns out to be a black guy. The more violent you are increases your social media influence, increasing your level.

Fritz the cat didn't predict anything, it was made about it's era and literally none of this shit has changed.

I was speaking more of the fact as to how millennial “gang bangers” think they can act, speak and do actual crimes for real gang members that would stab them in the back hypothetically and literally.

Plus, what kind of MBA student wants to go to jail for grand larceny and petty drug dealing?

Well going by last summer, it was arson that was the crime all the cool kids were doing.
