The chances of running a Steam sourced game in a virtual machine is infinitely small. Steam is available for OSX, why not use that?

Because Saints row 4 isn't on mac and I don't have the money to get windows 7 or boot camp

I see. Bootcamp is free so I take it you can't afford windows 7 to run in either VirtualBox or Bootcamp.

VirtualBox has it's own graphics adapter. As I said, you are not going to get the game running in VirtualBox.
