I am desperately trying to avoid all SR4 news because I refuse to buy it until I complete 3 - that game is just too great to abandon without finishing every last mission (despite all the Call of Dutys and other action games out there, SR3 is the first game to really make me feel like I was starring in my own goofy Hollywood action movie :) ). But I have noticed that the game is getting rave reviews so far:

QuoteSaints Row was born of Grand Theft Auto, but although both feature open cities and freeform violence, they've diverged. Grand Theft Auto is desperate to be a film, to be satire, to be an experience. Saints Row IV wants to be a game, and by showing its heartfelt love for the medium, it's become something wonderful.
Escapist: 5/5
QuoteAll put together, Saints Row IV is a fantastic game, keeping up the series' tradition of giving players a wide open world and the tools to go absolutely bonkers within it. It's hilarious, it's action-packed, and most of all, its fun to play.
And I am sure these are but the first. 8)
Trailer (I'd vote for him!)
RPS loves it too...
Now, when I say, "Who's da mastah?" you say, "Sho'nuff!" 8)
Already pre-ordered. I loved 2 and 3, so it was kind of a no brainer to pick this one up as well.
