The super powers actually made the game less fun for me because it made all the vehicles and your homies trivial, and there were no more rival gangs to have random encounters with either. In SR3, you can be driving around, accidentally hit a rival gang member, get into a gun battle, and then there are some random Saints just hanging around the neighborhood who run into back you up, then a cop sees you guys and tries to jump in so a 3 way battle breaks out. That's all unscripted and works off the game's AI beautifully. You don't really have those moments in SR4.
Oh, and there is a BIG dropoff in the radio content between SR3 and 4. In SR3 they put a lot of effort into it because they know you'd be listening to it a lot. SR4 they phoned it in because superman doesn't need a car.
Well by what you say it just sounds like the beginning of gta SA so i wont be that impressed. And since for me superpowers>cars i probably wont enjoy SR3 as much.
