      Same.. But too be honest it was pretty good considering it ran at native 4k and held up extremely well. It was cheap too for 3 awesome games in one package with all the DLC. Pretty sure they done texture upgrades, lighting etc.. Wasn't much but it did help

      That would have been awesome! But realistically I would never expect something like this from Ubisoft. At least though they should have improved the abysmal rendering distance, not seeing that continuous pop-in would have been enough for me.

Of course digital foundry is right and it looks pretty good. IGN probably didn’t even take the time to look at the old game as it’s impossible not take see how great a change there is. They expected it to look like a game released this year which no remaster usually can do as they requires a remake instead to be completely graphically enhanced.

    Remastering, is a good way of keeping your staff sharp, up to speed with new tech, whilst being able to quickly rifle through the work since the game is basically fixed in time. Also, many assets and textures can be created that can go into a pool of new gen assets to be re-used at a later date. All classic games would benefit from remastering of this kind.

    Saints Row the Third was one of my most played games during the 7th generation of consoles and it was easily one of my top five games in my late high school years.
    Years later now here we are with this remaster and even though I adore the original game this remaster really shows just how much technology has improved as well as gaming quality. So awesome that the dev team went as far as they did to make this remaster as best as I could be. I think this is a great send-off for this console generation and while I definitely look forward to a future Saints Row game down the lawn this remaster of the third installment is definitely going to keep my interest and me playing for a very long time.
    ( if anyone is curious I played the PS3 version back in 2011 and I plan to pick up the Xbox version for the remaster since I have an Xbox One X + 4K TV so I'll be able to take full advantage of the extra features and visual enhancements )
    I can't wait to finally try out the multiplayer Co-op that I missed out on with the original version being able to play all of the DLC and extra content will definitely be a treat as well!
    After work today I'm definitely picking up a copy and buy myself some pizza and relive some of the most fun days all over again but this time in modern style and tech!

      @Shadowhawkdark 4 ปีที่แล้ว +15

      I think the point IGN made was very well made. This is a visual overhaul. A visual overhaul of a very stylized game. Yes, it makes major improvements, but it does not change or add anything new to the game, and the game itself didn't have anything that broke it to cause a "NEED" for a remaster (at least for PC that is, technically it is brought up to current gen, but it waited until the end of the generation to do this, rather than the beginning of the next).
      Its a welcome upgrade, but with a very unwelcoming price tag if you've already gotten most of the fun out of the game previously, or still own the old one. Also, don't forget that the IGN guy mentions he had recently played a buggy switch port of the old version, so he had already gotten all of the fun out of the game, then pushed past that, and then played the same thing 'but shinier'.

Comparing a remastered game to remade games is just not fair. But in the end the 7/10 (or 70% if you're so inclined) is a fair rating. However keep in mind that the original release of Saints Row The Third achieved a 8/10, meaning the game lost somehow 1 point for including all DLCs now and being visually improved. At least... well... stick with the old rating when the game didn't get worse? Idk, just my two cents.

    I do still dislike the actual design of Steelport though. Stilwater was so much better. It had a university, Chinatown, Barrio, Red Light district, airport, a mountain, an underground facility, a huge shopping mall, a prison, a suburban district, a boardwalk with casinos, a museum district, a downtown district, a nuclear power plant, and of course ye olde Saints Row. It also had more customization and interior locations. And at least the city actually changed between SR1 and SR2.

    The passion DF has for games and CGI in general I feel, is so refreshing, in videos like these you can clearly see that they fully understand what effortgoes into it even if they may not fully grasp what something does exactly, which they don't have to. They go above and beyond to explain in easy to understand language what a given technique aims to do, and what makes it difficult to render or outright taxing to use.

All those mid budget open world games from 10 years ago, like Saint's Row series, Mafia 2, Sleeping Dogs, even extra low budget ones like Wheelman, are more functional. Going back even further, Midtown Madness and Driver 2, all these late-90s games running in barely a couple MB of RAM manage their limitations better and have actually passable artificial city life too.
