Title: Saints Row the Third
Post by: KaZudra on November 17, 2011, 11:23:45 PM
-First Impression Review-
I'm gonna lay it straight, I hated the First saints Row and ignored the second for the same reason. The moment I saw a few trailers I thought "Wow, this is gonna be some crazy shit, i might have to try this one out.". The more and more I saw commercials, trailers, and the Weird DLC and weapons.... I gave in.

From the initiation station you can pre-make your character and get a feel on how detailed the creation is, this is completely free so download this now.

After that I am initiated with a Prologue that was a harlarious mix of Star Wars as if it was written like a Boondocks Parody, after that some more humor with an ad for an energy drink ultimately leading to the first mission, a Bank Hiest. after you complete it you'll be led to a few more essential Plot Mission to set up the game. These missions would make a Perfect Demo as it Demonstrates ALOT of the awesome things that this game is capable of, overall, the set-up missions are top notch!

-Gameplay-
Back in high school I dreamt of the perfect GTA game which had Burnout style Driving and a Legitimate 3rd person Shooter controls.
MY GOD! they hit it on the nail and game me alot more than I expected! Driving has never been more fun and On ground combat is just as fun... I havent figured out how to do a cover system on the controller yet but if its there it just adds to the awesome!

-Graphics-
Colors are Bright, nature is natural, buildings have effort, Cars look realistic... Overall this game has great Graphics for it's art direction.

-Sound-
Like GTA games, you'll find a good variety of music in buildings and in (mopre importantly) the vehicles.

-----
First impression-wise this game is great.
The reason I do a first impression/ Lasting impression reviews is because of RAGE, before I beat it it was Awesome, after I beat it the game felt very empty and campaign-wise sucked.

I don't know anything about this game, but I'd like to say fuuuuuuuuuck this game, 'cos of this message from Chemlab's Jared Louche:

You'd think that i'd be pleased that they use a Chemlab track in their in-built station.
However, since no one actually PAID for the use of the song I'm furious as usual at getting ripped off. I own joint license with Metal Blade for all of the material on both Burn Out and East Side Militia so it's painfully obvious who IS collecting a check on this one.
Same as it ever was.
I'm sick of the tired old "Fist-Fuck The Artist" game.
I'm going after them.


Yeah. Including Chemlab's "Suicide Jag" is cool, because that's an amazing tune, but not paying the artist is seriously bogue.

Got it. Yet to try it though. You must have heard about how over-the-top the game really is. Just looking at the back of the CD case confirms this. It does look fun however I'm waiting to finish up my other two games I purchased that same day.

This game tops in fun, mayhem, and memorable campaign.

It only sucks that you don't have this game yet, this shit is just pure gold!

Just played the game for the first time last night... WTF sums it up for me and not in any way bad or terrible. This s**t is the s**ts! The character creat-a-mode is quite in-depth. Got quite a few laughs out of the intro stage and also the intro story. This game is over the top. For my next over-the-top experience I'm going to try and land that privet jet at the airport on my penthouse helipad  ;D
