I did not mind the big shifts in that story since Keith David's super-homie outfit is a Lando Calrissian costume. He made a deal with Zinyak, Zinyak altered the deal, Keith returns to side of the Saints. Not to mention the cut scene ending with "You sound just like Julius . . . "

It might be mixing references a little, but I wish the thugs beating you up in front of Keith had been using some electricity-based weapon.

Aside from the tedious sounding alien vehicle challenge, the 'bounce rifle kills' is going to be painful, I hate that weapon.

Everyone says that until they realize how much the bounce rifle owns. Slap a few upgrades on that bad boy and take it to a virus insertion, you'll have the challenge in no time.

Whaaaat? The fully upgraded bounce rifle is fantastic, you can literally drop down on a group of enemies, shoot once and watch the 'flashpoint deleted' sign come up. I used it for almost the entire game. The only problem is that it's really goofy looking.

Those standard alien weapons (pistol, SMG, rifle) are the worst though and I was annoyed every time the game made me use them. That goddamn noise the rifle makes, like punching a cheap rubber ball, fuuuuck

Yeah upgraded it a few times now, the overheating was what annoyed me, it's pretty good now

Is there any way to redo virus injections after they've been completed?

Zimos is mentioned a few times but never physically appears. When the Boss talks to Gat about him his fate is left ambiguous though.

Apparently Zimos appears in one of the upcoming Season Pass DLCs, from what I recall. Also Nyteblayde.

So there's the dubstep gun pack and I heard about an executive privilege pack, (which sounds pretty pointless) are either of these included in the season pass or is that just for the (2?) upcoming story DLCs?

The biggest cameo he has in the main story is his gold-tooth shark on display on your ship and a virtual version in the rubble of Zimos' Cash Wash :911:.

Oh my god how did I not notice what that costume actually was. All I saw was the Deep Silver logo on the belt buckle.

PC players! If you want to experience this game with a relatively normal daytime color palette, set the Simulation Override to Modern and turn both SSAO and post-processing off. I'll be doing this in my second playthrough, no question.

Modern is too saturated, I think Classic is the best daytime override.

From the leaked videos of it (probable DLC spoilers) as the Saints celebrate defeating the antagonist of the DLC Zimos is seen putting his pimp hat on a dinosaur. Donnie also returns.

The season pass only includes the first two story DLCs and the rectifier. All other cosmetic, weapon or yet-to-be-announced story DLCs are not included.

Incorrect, JAWS Unleashed still has the best mission objective of all time, and it's in the first mission:
code:
Obtain a keycard
Because you are a shark. You have to jump up to the catwalk, grab a scientist in your jaws, then swim over to the door and hit L2 to shake your head while you're biting him to open it.

Well, since there's apparently ridable dinosaurs somewhere in the code, is it that farfetched to expect something similar?

Or, more appropriately... (linked) http://i44.tinypic.com/2059xm8.jpg "What the gently caress? Kinzie, I can't reach my loving gun! FIX THIS!" "At least you're not a toilet." "You're not helping, Pierce!"

There's no actual wubbing - so all you're really getting is a new skin and an MP3 played over it. Seems like poor value to me.

How is being able to kill with Ride of the Valkyries and Polka music not a good value? :colbert:

And the DeathMetal skin is 80% wubs as far as the Explosive Wubs upgrade is concerned.
