20130607_saints_row_4

Deep Silver has made Saints Row 4 available for pre-purchase on Steam. If you get your cash down before August 19 you’ll be upgraded to the Commander in Chief Edition and receive three exclusive Team Fortress-inspired weapon skins – The Rainblower, the Flamethrower and the Rocket Launcher. Plus, if you happen to own Saints Row: The Third on Steam – which I believe pretty much everyone in the entire universe does by now – you’ll save 10% off the ticket price.

Saints Row: The Third has reached more than 5.5 million players, says Rubin

20121217_saints_roiw_the_third

Saints Row: The Third has been played by 5.5 million people, according to a tweet from THQ president Jason Rubin. Although it’s not clear if the figure refers to units shipped or sold, the “hit nobody realized was a hit” had shipped 5 million units worldwide in November, suggesting it’s probably the former. Rubin said this total doesn’t include Humble Bundle Sales, which would round out to about 6.3 million. The next Saints Row game began life as an expansion but will be fleshed out to a full sequel.

Thanks, GameInformer.
