I already preordered elsewhere, but it's all good. If it's half as fun as SRTT I'd happily drop $100 on it.

Console version for full price and pc version for 40 = $100 right here. :dance:

Oh dang, Kotaku posted an awesome hidden easter egg weapon you can find at Let's Pretend.

I kinda don't wanna link it to spoil anybody but anybody that REALLY wants to see it it's easy to find on the front page.

Does Greenmangaming usually just send you the key at release, or do they get some lead time for pre-loading?

I'm wondering this myself. Though I've been having issues checking out at Greenman today.

Oh, by the way, I'm having trouble with the community site, and its functions inside of SR3 and the Inauguration Station (which is now not crashing for some reason). It says "found an account associated with your steam account", which is expected, and I put in my password which is documented from last time and...nothing. I ask for a password email and never got it. Any ideas?

edit: also it won't let me change that username, for the purpose of starting a new account, not inside the game anyway. Any idea where that info is stored?

"If you run into account problems on our website or Inauguration Station: send your username/registered email to saintaccount@deepsilver.com"

I did that and they got me sorted pretty quick.

Whoa. Wife Turds posted:

I suppose I could post this on IdolNinja's forums but I'm putting out feelers if anyone else knows whether this is possible/is annoying anyone else.

The fact that the jumping isn't more prototype-like is pretty infuriating. I usually adapt to things I don't like jumpwise no matter how much I hate it at first (the jump delay in Mercenary Kings is a prime example) but the fact that you have to hold down before you jump to determine height rather than jumping on button press and having height be press-length dependent is pretty game-destroying for me. I'm not being overly dramatic, either. I just can't deal with how unresponsive and clunky it feels when you want to jump while turning or changing direction and it feels so wrong. I shouldn't have to plan a high jump in advance-- I should be able to jump as high as needed at will. Is this something that could be modded down the line or would that be impossible? Is it bothering anyone else? I know I'm being THAT GUY but for an action game this just seems like pretty poor input design in an otherwise flawless game.

What are you talking about? Prototype jumping *was* hold down before you jump to determine height. They took it straight from Hulk: Ultimate Destruction.

I pre-ordered this game last week from Green Man because I've usually had good service. Not this time though.

Instead of a key for SRIV in My Games section all I have is this message:



I have a ticket open with support and it keeps getting closed by a different support person every 6-8 hours with a messages that alternate between "You can find your key in the My Account section" and "The key should now by added to your account." Still don't have the key.

Okay, figured out what was going on with the weapons deal.

It was the title update. It made any weapons I hadn't bought yet disappear from Friendly Fire. Clearing the cache and
going back into the game fixed it so I could buy them and then update it again.

Man, people keep harping on male voice 2 but y'know what?

That voice IS the voice of the boss for me. I've been rocking it since the first game with the same character. It's been
really nice to have that consistency throughout the series. And he's not even a black dude!

So if I'm the only one to do it then let me say thank you, Kenn Michael, for your good work.

If you aren't using the maxed out Robocop SMGs with an ice buff on Wardens... I dunno. Why wouldn't you want to do that?

You start the game as Gat, but Kinzie hangs out in the Ultor lobby and you can go there and switch to her at any time. Each character does have some unique commentary collectibles.

Yaaaay.

Now to decide how to play this: 360 (Which was my primary full series playthrough), PC (Cause I own all the DLC on that too) or on PS4 when I get one.

So, I will soon have my hands on a PS4 so I'll be able to play SPECTACULAR NEW (not for PC) GRAPHICS version of SR4. Again. ANd Gat out of Hell.

And I was wondering if there was some way, maybe, there'd be way to port saves from pre-gen console versions to the new one. And maybe creations. I'd just like to have one creation pool. :allears:

Saves are platform specific. There is no way to port a save from one console to another. The character upload/download feature is all platform specific. Characters created on one console can't be downloaded by another through the website.
