saintsrow4 031913

Deep Silver wants your input on the contents of a Saints Row 4 Collector’s Edition. You can fill out the option bubbles through here. The ranks span from “HELL NO!” to “AWWWW YEAH” in choice, and various items such as T-shirts, hats, pins, an RC copter, a voice augmentation device / auto-tune device, and Dubstep Doomsday Button are just some of the options to pick. There was no mention of a purple dildo with a handle, but a “Functional (not deadly!) in-game weapon replica” was one of the choices. Saints Row 4 releases on PC, PS3, and Xbox 360 August 20 in the US and August 23 in the UK. Thanks, Rumrod.
