Saints Row 4 adds Obama and Bush skins in last-minute launch promo

Picking up your Saints Row 4 pre-order at GameStop in a timely fashion will net you one more bonus: a "Presidential Pack" with skins for Presidents Obama, Bush, Lincoln, and Washington.

Saints Row 4 is due tomorrow, and it's quite good. And while that alone should motivate you to pick up your pre-order in a timely fashion, Deep Silver has announced an extra bonus for the procrastinating types.

GameStop (via Polygon) is offering access to the "Presidential Pack" DLC for anyone that picks up the game within 48 hours after release. It will let you dress your Boss up with a cartoonish skin of four famous presidents: Barack Obama, George W. Bush, Abraham Lincoln, and George Washington.

This is in addition to the two superhero costume bonuses at GameStop, Iron Rogue and Queen Amazonia. Plus all pre-orders get the Commander in Chief bonuses, which include an Uncle Sam outfit, Screamin' Eagle jet, and 'Merica weapon. Let your imagination run wild as to how to combine those bonuses.

      Weird, how can this be legal, ma sitting president shooting and killing others while himself getting shot and blow up, seems like something that would be frowned upon. or maybe that's the point?

        I believe public figures can be used otherwise the Hitler estate would have been all up in arms over Wolfenstein

      They DO look like last-minute stuff indeed. Quite fugly, especially Washington, wtf did they do to him? Obama is too satirical-looking. Bush is the only one looking alright.

          Not only that but I think they're supposed to be look like masks (kinda like the ones in Point Break).

        I think they'd be in all kinds of trouble for having realistic likenesses. Hell, I'm surprised they're not in some kind of trouble as it is.
