Saints Row: The Third

[nCogNeato]

I reeeeeally don't like the "look" of the trailer/gameplay I saw of this, but everyone loves it. Might have to give it a whirl. Is SR2 decent? I might get that on the cheap first and just expect 3 to be better. It seems very GTA - and in spite of having loved GTA once upon a time, I barely touched IV (came with my console).

Saints Row 2 is like a parody clone of GTA San Andreas.

Saitns Row 3 is so far beyond anything GTA offers.  The developers knew exactly who's playing the game, what they want, and gives it to them in spades.  Characters, dialogue, weapons, story missions.  There's nothing about SR3 that I can point at and say, "This could have been done better."  That's pretty damn rare.

I just beat this. Nifty game. There are multiple endings, too!

January will be a busy month for me with this, Skyrim, Batman, Deus Ex and DoDonPanchi

THQ cancels Saints Row: The Third 'Enter the Dominatrix' standalone expansion



THQ announced this morning its Saints Row: The Third standalone expansion, Enter the Dominatrix, has been canceled for September and will be incorporated in "The Next Great Sequel in the Saints Row Franchise" (working title) next year.

"I asked the team what it could achieve given more time, more resources, and a broader scope for the project. We all agreed we wanted to play that game," said THQ president Jason Rubin. "We believe the potential for this sequel is far greater as a full-priced, full-length, high quality, connected experience."

The change is expected to create a $20 million reduction in revenue for the precarious publisher by the close of its fiscal year next March. THQ now has five projects left for the fiscal year: Darksiders 2, WWE 13, Metro: Last Light, South Park and Company of Heroes 2.

Nice!

I already have the vanilla, but I did get the DLC very cheap so I'm happy.
