If you have to sum up Saints Row: The Third in one word it has to be ‘crazy.’ With the amount of weird and wonderful activities and characters it was hard to imagine that it could get any weirder. The weirdest of them all was the cat-like Professor Genki, and when you hear that the new downloadable content is called Genkibowl VII you know things are about to get pushed up a notch or two.
Continue reading El33tonline’s review of Saints Row: The Third – Genkibowl VII (DLC).
Thanks to a bit of enormous news yesterday, we got to thinking about the fun and addictive nature of sandbox and open-world games, which lead us to this Question of the Day:
What about Grand Theft Auto, and open-world games, do you find most appealing?
By now, you’re sure to have witnessed the intensely atmospheric, epic and military-themed trailers for Activision’s Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and EA’s Battlefield 3, both of which exude very identifiable visual touches, action sequences and audio cues.
It seems as though people at THQ and Volition have seen these trailers, too, and together the publisher/developer pair have released a video of their own, only this time featuring Saints Row: The Third imbued with elements that are somehow very familiar:
[Update] Added a just-released eight-minute Saints Row: The Third story and gameplay trailer below - don’t miss it! [End of Update]
When Saints Row: The Third was first revealed, developer Volition came out swinging with a series of powerful showings with batches of screenshots, an incredible CG trailer, an over-the-top gameplay video and a completely bonkers pre-order offer.
This latest trailer for Saints Row: The Third continues to impress with further reveals of the cruel, crazy and explosive action (and actions) of the game, as we learn a little bit more about the fiction that pushes proceedings forward… although when you can drive a tank around in the streets of a city and eject people out of a ‘man-a-pult,’ story fades into the background:
We didn’t think it was possible for Saints Row: The Third to get any crazier than it already is. After watching that “over-the-top and ridiculous” gameplay video showcasing super-powered accessories, tank battles in the middle of the street, ‘man cannons’ and a whole lot more madness, we honestly thought that the team at Volition had escalated the action as far as possible.
We were wrong. So wrong.
Ever since the game was first formally announced, we’ve been patiently waiting for a few good, extended looks at Saints Row: The Third in action with an impressive gameplay video or two.
Information and screenshots are nice, but short of actually playing the game, there’s nothing like a nice video slice of a highly anticipated title to showcase what kinds of raucous action we’re going to be able to get up to.
Last week THQ announced that Saints Row: The Third would be hitting shelves across North America on the 15th of November, with PAL regions following on the 18th of November.
To help pass the time until Volition’s next crazy, way over-the-top open-world sandbox game is released, here’s a batch of new screenshots for you to enjoy.
Saints Row: The Third has been slapped with a November 15th release date in North America, and a November 18th date everywhere else, THQ has just revealed.
To celebrate an official release date for Volition’s next crazy, way over-the-top open-world sandbox game, an incredibly stylish CG trailer has been released to help us understand just some of the factions and actions we’ll be seeing in the title:
In the wake of Saints Row: The Third’s formal announcement earlier this year… not a whole lot of media has been released for the game save for a few pieces of artwork and a very quick teaser trailer, but after almost two months of going without, THQ and Volition have decided to make public an incredibly massive batch of new artwork, with the latest screenshots in tow.
You may have seen these images elsewhere before, but they’re fresh to us, so check out the rest of the new images for Saints Row: The Third with looks at explosive in-game action and character artwork:
The debut teaser for THQ and Volition’s Saints Row: The Third has been released.
It’s very quick and ahem… punchy:
After confirming that the title was in development during the company’s most recent financial earnings report, THQ has officially announced the existence of Saints Row 3, now going by the moniker ‘Saints Row: The Third.’
Posh.
During THQ’s quarterly earning report recently, the publisher revealed that Saints Row 3 is indeed in the works, while announcing a slight release date slip for the upcoming Homefront shooter, as well as release windows for Darksiders and Dark Millennium Online.
