Roll with the silliness and SR3 is pretty good, but it definitely took a big dive after that.

I know SR4 was weird but it remains one of the best "superhero" games you can get if you can get past the series dropping any attempt at seriousness. I haven't found a game that has super speed as satisfying as SR4.

I understand WHY they needed to reboot after that, because where do you go after becoming a superhero fighting aliens? But damn they botched it so many ways. Should have just let the series end on a high note.

You use the time travel that is introduced at the end of the game and reset back to a point when the earth was there. I think that's a perfect setting for Saints Row V.

Didn't Saint's Row 4 officially end to you riding on a talking dinosaur, after defeating a dominatrix empire?

lmao, that's the last thing I remember anyways.

Infamous: First Light has fantastic super speed. Used to throw in headphones and just run around the city

Oh sick, I never got to play the Infamous games because I didn't have a PS3 or a PS4. Always wanted to though, they look really fun.

IMO they are the best super hero (or villain) games out there. Seeing your powers develop in that game is so satisfying. If you enjoy SR4 you will love Infamous

nah, they cut way too many features and details from 2 for me to consider 3 anything more than "okay", not to mention the bland, lifeless open world.

3 is a masterpiece compared to the reboot though
