Dubstep, eagle surfing and superhuman freerunning - it’s time to trick out Saints Row IV.
Saints Row IV needs no introduction. It’s one of the most ridiculous games of this generation; mashing up crazy cultural references, wrestler cameos and OTT gameplay in a way that makes Grand Theft Auto V look sane. It’s also one of the most fun – its wide open world plays like a combination of Prototype, GTA and Crackdown, cranked up past 11. Join us as we jump into the city of Steelport to take on the alien invasion and we’ll show you how to pull off some of the zaniest stuff that Saints Row has to offer.
Fly like an eagle
The Screaming Eagle jet that comes with the Commander in Chief pack is one of the coolest vehicles to take to the skies with in Saints Row IV – but what’s even better is flinging yourself high into the sky to land on the jet. Achievement Hunter’s Michael and Geoff show you exactly what to do, even if you don’t have a pilot’s license: grab the Abduction Gun and aim at the ground. When you fire, you’re launched fast into the sky – giving you the chance to freefall onto your friend’s jet. Now start hanging on with all your might – this is surfing with style.
What is love?
One of Jim Carrey’s iconic sketches is the SNL skit, Night at the Roxbury, where he cruises around with Will Ferrell listening to Haddaway’s ‘What is Love?’ and you can recreate that in Saints Row IV. Escaping the Zin Ship in the story is one of the most challenging parts of the game, but YouTube gamer MisterShadow45 shows you how to take on the aliens, dodge enemy fire and shoot down the bad guys, all in classic head-bopping style. Pharrell Williams ain’t got nothing on this.
Double up for skydiving
Need a skydiving buddy? Your friends aren’t online? No sweat – make use of the citizens of Steelport and let them dive with you. Achievement Hunter’s Michael and Geoff are back again to show you that you don’t need to freefall on your lonesome – just throw up a car with your telekinetic superpowers and the driver will jump straight out. Time it right as you jump up into the sky to launch a car, and you’ve got yourself some instant skydiving buddies: Let’s see if you can compete with our very own Red Bull Skydive Team.
Freerun like a superhuman
Ryan Doyle’s freerunning at the Swiss Transport Museum for Red Bull X-Runis unquestionably awesome, but what if you wanted to parkour like an actual superhuman? Saints Row IV has you covered: as o0Brilliance0o demonstrates, you can run and jump like the whole world’s your playground – and even freefall like the amazing Soul Flyers too. Checkmate, GTA.
Time warp: Saints Row: The Third bumper cars
Don’t have the latest and greatest in the Saints Row franchise? Lucky for you Saints Row: The Third offers antics just as crazy as its sequel. For startes, you can play bumper cars of doom on top of your penthouse with your friends. The fine folks at Achievement Hunter show you how to place your Emu cars at the top of your penthouse, while the helipad acts as the perfect bumper car track. Grab the popcorn, pimp your ride and hop in your vehicles – it’s bumper car time.
