Party time! Excellent!
After 19 hours of game play with not too much faffing about I finally finished the main campaign of this insane 3rd person action adventure drama.

The best I can describe it is imagine GTA, now pump it full of steroids, viagra, and LSD, then put Ron Jeremy and Michael Bay in charge of production, toss it all in a blender and there you have Saints Row: The Third.

There might be times where some of the missions become slightly repetitive, but the pure pleasure of blowing stuff up makes it bearable.

It's crazy, vulgar, absurd, comical and an Aircraft Carrier full of fun!

Would definitely recommend this to anyone who is a fan of the genre and that isn't easily offended by beating strippers with a purple dildo :p

If you've had the privilege to play SR:TT use the poll up top to give it your mark out of 5

I must say that I loved this game. I realise that my likes are a bit different from everyone else (e.g. I found GTA to be too boring), but initially I started this game just to check it out the intro and it was so over the top, I couldn't put it down. I wished that they had kept Eliza Dushku and Johnny Gat, but the game was still great without them.
 
I would love to say that I enjoyed this game, but unfortunately I haven't been able to play it, despite buying it on release day. It runs like total garbage on my PC, I was very disappointed. Hopefully I can upgrade soon and catch up a bit.

Kinda ironic seeing as it's thanks to you that I got to play Saints Row :p

I gave it a 5. It's over the top in sillyness and the multiplayer is awesome :)

ah yes, I completely forgot about the co-op feature in my rush review, which you can play either online or via LAN. It's one of the things that puts it ahead of GTA who could never be bothered with a MP mode
 
I so desperately want to vote in the poll! Something in my brain is saying "Click it click it CLICK IT!" but I will wait until I actually play the game.
 
Same here, got it with the bundle, but haven't played it yet... It will have to wait till after FC3... then I'll come back to rate it.
 
I enjoyed the fact that the game was willing to be fun rather than the over-serious tone of GTA 4. I did feel the sex stuff went a bit over the top, would have liked to turn that down a little and perhaps a bit more depth is certain areas.
 
5*****
This game is incredibly fun to play, although there are some bugs and certain game features are lacking, it's still damn enjoyable!:)

Saints Row 2 may have had more variety of clothing, but, clothing moves in here... Some do anyway...
A more detailed variety in the facial creation of the character would've been nice though.
Saints Row 2 did that quite good.
Character customisation is where I spend a lot of time to get my character looking just good enough for me.



Killing off one of the main and funniest characters in the Saint Row series was not a smart move. Just having Shaundi and Pierce is fine, but, there's NO GAT! Johnny made Saints Row 2 for me 'cause of his humour. I especially liked the idea of being able to watch and re-watch cutscenes, especially that fighting scene House Party, in the Ronin category of the cutscenes.


Saints Row: The Third is FUN and I'm VERY proud to own this game!

I was actually expecting him to make a miraculous reappearance at the end, cause they never actually show his death. So I thought it would be an interesting plot twist if the Syndicate actually had him locked away somewhere...

I was surprised that Phillipe was killed of so early in the game.
Trailers should really stop introducing fake main antagonists. I can think of one more game that had a fake main antagonist... :(
 
You can expect saint to comment on a saints row game :p

While I don't own it I have played it and it is quite fun better than GTA IV :p
