[PC, Steam] Saints Row IV: Game of The Century Edition - $6.74 AUD @ Fanatical

490

Late one night a few weeks ago, I was looking for something shooty to play, I found Saints Row IV was already in my Steam library.
It's gloriously silly and a lot of fun.

This edition comes with all of the DLC and is cheaper than buying the "Game of the Century Upgrade" on Steam (and will activate over the top if you already own it).

The other versions are also on sale on Fanatical, but this is the best bang for your buck.

From the website:

About this game

The US President must save the Earth from alien overlord Zinyak using an arsenal of superpowers and strange weapons in the wildest open world game ever. Includes all available DLC!

The epic conclusion to the game that changed all the rules! The Saints have gone from the crackhouse to the White House—but the Earth has been invaded and it’s up to you to free the world from Overlord Zinyak and his alien empire. With homies new and old by your side, and an arsenal of superpowers and strange weapons, you must save the world in the wildest open world game ever!

Your Official Saints Row IV Steam Key Game of the Century Edition gives you:

  • The American (Fever) Dream – Play as the President of the United States in a story that spans countries, space, and time. Saints Row IV is to Saints Row: The Third what Saints Row: The Third is to Do The Right Thing. You’re not ready.
  • The Presidency & Super powers – Leap over buildings. Kill people with your mind. Run through tanks. Those are some of the most mundane powers you will wield in your quest to stop an alien menace hell-bent on destroying the Earth.
  • Alien Toys of Destruction - Wield an impressive array of alien vehicles and weapons… FOR SCIENCE!
  • Custom Weapons, Custom Mayhem – You’ve customized your character. You’ve customized your clothes. Now you can complete the look with our all new weapon customization system. Turn traditional weapons into exotic conversation pieces!
  • Dynamic Duos - Seamless drop-in, drop-out co-op, a Saints Row standard, improved. The only thing better than one malicious super-powered President is two.

    "The US President must save the Earth…"

    It was nice knowing y'all…

      Lol, here have 9000 votes.
      Someone should mod a item that looks like bleach. Does SR have mods like Oblivion, Fallout or Stalker?

  • Only 2 player multiplayer

    • Looking on steam it shows as single player, are some of the DLC multiplayer only?, just asking as I've never played Saints Row before, I do own the 3rd I think somewhere.

      • +2

        i think it was multiplayer from start to end, it has been a while since i played it though. the only problem is your character can outlevel your friend which makes it difficult when you're sprinting around at 200kmph and your buddy has to get a car

    Oh my word, if anyone wants to play a mini-version of a fanatical GTA style game with a OTT main character…THIS IS THE GAME LOL

    $20 says we still get the low violence version because the classification board is run by a bunch of old farts still living in the 1800s.

    • Low violence, F**k.
      So how does one get violence version.

      Thanks OP.

    • +6

      There's no 'low violence' version. The AU version cuts out a single 'loyalty' mission (not even a main mission) because it glorifies drug use. I played the uncut version and you're not missing much.

      • Thanks for that info.
        I'll get this then.

      • +2

        Regardless, if I'm paying the same price as everyone else I want the same content as everyone else.

        Also, (profanity) the ACMA still for deciding what the hell I, an adult, can and can't play.

        • +1

          It's not ACMA who makes the decisions. It's the classification board who can only make decisions based on the guidelines legislated by Federal Parliament. Even then the classification guidelines must be agreed to by all the states and territories.

          It's bloody hard to change which it took so long to get an R18+ classification.

          At the end of the day, some things are unlikely to be unbanned - such as glorification of drug use, sexual conduct for reward etc.

          • @SirFlibbled:

            In interactive media. These things are openly showed and glorified in film and music literally every single day.

            Also yeah, the classification board. Always thought they were part of the ACMA. Guess not.

            • @Tacooo: Music isn't classified through the classification board. Yes interactivity means there are slightly different rules, but those rules are only mostly around drug use and sexual activity (but not nudity).

              In almost all instances where the content has been banned in the last 10 years, it's been pretty minimal. The only real time where I think it's been fairly impacting on a game was in South Park the Stick of Truth.

                @SirFlibbled: DayZ has had its' fair share of issues and still does.

                An unreleased game from RockStar called Bonaire has been banned entirely.

                We Happy Few was banned entirely, then unbanned, then banned entirely again when a DLC was released and then unbanned entirely without modification.

                Hotline Miami 2 was banned entirely and remains that way.

      • Isn't there an adult toy themed weapon cut as well? I bought a steam key years ago from Ubisoft store (idk why they were selling it) and I don't think I have any low violence flags on my copy, I assumed if bought anywhere other than steam itself you might get the global version. But like you said it's barely anything that was cut anyway, still annoying though.

        • There was some sort of anal probe gun which was DLC that was also cut.

  • +1

    If you have never played it, think of an arcade-style GTA mixed with Prototype/Infamous.

    Stupidly fun, toilet humour game which will keep you entertained for 20-35 hours, 40 hours if you want to unlock the achievement for playing the game for the same length of time.

  • +1

    Can confirm this is lots of fun. Also, Keith David!

  • +1

    This is a fantastic, fun, and really stupid game. Really enjoyed it.

    Afterwards though i wasn't able to play gta anymore -what do you mean i can't just run through the traffic? Why do i need to drive, can't i just run across the city?

    Only $45 on Nintendo Switch

  • Remember Saints Row IV: Re-Elected is included with Xbox Game Pass.

  • Thanks. It has a linux-native version too, bought it!

  • +2

    Thanks, bought it!

    FYI it registered as "Saints Row IV National Treasure Edition" on my account with all 25 DLCs that's available on Steam. According to Wikipedia, "The Game of the Century edition included 20 downloadable content sets and was released May 9, 2014. The National Treasure Edition included 29 downloadable content sets and was released on July 8, 2014."

    • I noticed it said something other than "Game of the Century Edition" when I registered mine too. I clicked through before I could read the full name. Thanks for the additional info.
