Review – Saints Row the Third (PC, Xbox360, PS3)
2011 – Volition – 1 Player (Campaign) Multiplayer (Online)
PC, PS3, Xbox360
The Good
- Loads of fun Gameplay
- Reminiscent of classic GTA
- Amazing custom character creation with voices and interactions not just “faceless”
The Bad
- The missions are kind of just a repetition of a handful of mini games
- Kooky level may be too much for some people’s taste.
In Depth
Saints Row really has a comeback story behind it. The first game is apparently rather terrible. the second game is better but not great. It’s already saddled with being a “GTA knockoff” by default no matter what it does. Somewhere Volition has managed to get something really right because Saints Row the Third seems to be quite a hit among gamers. So much of a hit that THQ had decided to focus more on games like Saints Row over things like it’s failing Wii Tablet thing (U-Draw).
This thing is pretty long and image heavy, so you’ll have to click through to get the whole thing.
