Pros
Pro Takes a popular concept and blends it with survival games
Much like the movies The Hunger Games or Battle Royale (and a lesser extent Running Man), this game blends survival gameplay in with a game-show aspect of last man standing. While not new ideas in and of themselves, this is the first game to really capitalize on a current popular trend of similar movies and books.
Pro An open sandbox provides a wide variety of activities
Saints Row 4 offers a very compelling open world experience that excels when openly parodying other games. So not only does it offer what is the norm of open world gameplay of traversing a large city while completing objectives but it does so in a funny way that pokes fun at similar titles and goes over the top providing an extreme representation.
Pro 2 player online co-op
Saint's Row IV features 2 player online co-op, thought there is no local co-op supported.
Pro Great soundtrack selection
With 109 songs, there is going to be music that suits just about anyone. This also makes for a realistic experience of listening to a radio (as that is how the tracks are provided, as songs on different radio stations in game) due to so many songs being available as it mimics how a radio station would play.
Pro Great character customization
Players can change their appearance if they need to, at any time.
Pro There's a dubstep gun (SRIV)
Cons
Con Humor repeats itself too much
The bit of humor the game offers is a bit broad and is repeated too much, meaning that it is easy to get bored or tired of it pretty quick.
Con Worst Saints Row game
Saints row one and two were amazing with it being a serious gang game. The third installment was pretty good but not as serious but it did stick to the formula. But IV is NOT a good installment to this franchise. How do you go from a 3rd person gang shooter to a 3rd person alien shooter with superpowers. Some missions were fun as hell and the last one being one of the best missions but half of the game is destroying this thing and another thing. If it wasn't a saints row game then a 8/10 but they ruined the franchise so a 5/10.
Con Generally only one player (in co-op mode) gets to do the scripted parts
While different players have different roles when playing co-op only the main player is going to see the scripted parts of the game.
