Honestly, for GOTY. This game should be 2nd place. Cause this game is BONKERS. Ir rules. So hard.

Story is that Nelrith and I were trading coal on steam and I obviously didn't check hard enough on coupons. Earlier today, I found out I won a free copy of this game on steam. So I downloaded it to see what it was like and holy crap this is better than Grand Theft Auto. In fact, this is basically GTA but on steroids.



I never played the first two games but I am playing this one. And my goodness is this one fun game to just...I dunno, have fun in. It's amazing.

I mean, it's like GTA except you have like a billion more things to do in this game. Plus more. You feel like fighting? You can come up to someone and do wrestling finishing moves. Like to fight silly? You can buy a giant purple DILDO to beat people into submission. Call in an airstrike against your foes, Do drug deals. Etc.

And that is with me playing this game for about 2 hours. I heard you can literally grow your fist in this game and you can kill people with one blow. Not to mention get futuristic weapons, A vehicle that can suck up people and shoot them back out, some jet that can fuck worlds up, etc

Plus the storyline is balls to the wall insane. From the get-go you are introduced to something straight our of Starwars and while you are laughing your ass off you find yourself eventually hanging from the side of a money safe hanging from a helicopter shooting down loads and loads of people.

This game. This damn game is bonkers.

Story : You are a badass. Wreck shit up.

I'm not going to even EXPLAIN how I got this weapon. But it's basically Megaman's Buster gun. Infinite ammo, and even has a charge to it. No cheating whatsoever.



Fully charged...



Ka-boom.


Yes, my guy has an anime backback. Deal with it.

This game fucking rules.

Bit, you sound like you completely skipped the preview games or something... since well, SR2 was basically 10x better than GTA already.

SR1 was pretty whatever though, very skippable. But yeah, some people off and on say SR3 isn't quite as good as SR2. Either way I plan to pick it up soon I hope (first check this week baby!) and I'm sure I'll love it.

Yeah, honestly I never played Saints Row before. One of my friends was telling me he was gifted SR2 and GTA4 and after playing SR2 he literallt gave away GTA4.

Honestly, I owe a good deal of thanks to one of my friends (Blare from WoW) for getting me into this game. Also I got lucky as hell when I got this game for free off of Steam. Big thanks to Steam as well. They really do give out free games!

I just beat this game not too long ago (Posting from Steam) and honesly. I feel good about it. Yeah, had a weird ending (Although it does have multiple endings) but the aftermath of it all is you get to keep going once you beat it. So the fun does not end there. Now I can use cheats on this file and start over and make a female character or something.

But then I read that this game can only get better through DLC of course. But hey, it is only going to add more fun to the party. What Blare told me was that "This is that one game where it's like GTA, but it's better with cheats or if you want to unload on the population". So I will definately give that a go and just have fun in this playground.

Is this game better than Skyrim? Can't really give an honest answer to be honest. But I will say that owning this game and Skyrim is a super plus for you. You can't go wrong with one game having an amazing story and gameplay. And another with a hilarious story and amazing gameplay. Get both if you have to. This is something to remember.

From Blare: he told me that this game is way better than the previous games. And I have not played SR2 at all. But from what I know SR3 is cranked up to 11 on this one. So there is that.

GET THIS GAME

You should still grab SR2 sometime since it's dirt cheap. Totally worth it.

I predict this game has way better dialogue/writing than Skyrim.

Saints Row is was GTA should have become after San Andreas instead of going for a more realistic and serious game in IV.

I've beaten the first two games and have heard nothing but praise for SR3. Definitely need to check it out sometime.

I actually picked this up like two weeks ago, along with the MGS HD Collection, and Halo Anniversary. Haven't touched any of these yet thanks to Fallout 3. :lol:

Yeah, I think I'm finally liking F3 now actually. Took awhile to get into, but I'm digging it now and have made a lot of progress. I couldn't pass up that $7 sale on Steam for the GOTY edition.

I picked this up with a few other games today and just wasted a solid 2 hours just causing mayhem. I think I might like this game.

About halfway into this game now I believe. It's not bad, but better than SR2? Not sure about that. So far the story/characters are a little passed the line here, so it's just hilariously cheesy stuff. It's good humor but something about SR2 seemed a bit more witty and smarter.

I also fucking hate the addition of the Brutes, they are so damn annoying.

Overall it's a blast though. Gameplay and controls are better than the last two games, but I'm not sure if the story will be anywhere near SR2's.
