Brilliant
I went into this game not really knowing what to expect. The game of Saints Row 3 was either going to be hit or miss, and let me tell you... they HIT! This game is incredible, and one of the more addicting games I have ever played. It is also a big contender for GOTY, and it's got my vote. Although it is my favorite for GOTY, I don't see it winning, because of the Arkham Cities of the gaming world. Obviously, Arkham City is the favorite, which isn't obscene, but this game is far superior in my book, especially because of the weapons and all that jazz. If you don't have Saints Row 3, honestly, what are you waiting for? This is the best game I played this year, and potentially of all time.

My Guilty Pleasure
Want to play the ultimate screw around game of the decade? Well here it is. This game takes free roam, crazy, mindless fun to a whole new level. One thing is for sure: This game is NOT for kids! It is vulgar and filthy so parents please be aware if your kids ask for this game. It is great fun for mature adults though so have at it.
The story doesn’t amount to much. You are a gang who ended up in a new city and basically just decided to take it over. The whole game is making that happen. There is nothing deep, but it’s not really meant to be anyway. There are hilarious cut scenes and scenarios so you are bound to have a few laughs while playing this.
I absolutely love that there is a good co-op in this game. Nothing is left out and you can hop back and forth between single player and co-op easily. It is so much fun to screw around with friends so I definitely recommend grabbing a friend for this one.
The graphics are nice, there is good music and the sounds effects are decent enough. The controls are easy and the gameplay works well. I love the weapon variety and the funny ways to kill people. However, I was disappointed with the variety of cloths and car customization. It feels limited and it is very hard to truly create any look you want.
The game is fun and will be well suited to people who enjoy free-roams and are reasonably mature. You won’t be engrossed by the story and at times the game will frustrate you (especially when you are trying to get somewhere and enemy vehicles keep blocking you in and won’t let you move at all, or your teammates won’t get in the car no matter what), but you have a super time, trust me.
~Happy Gaming My Friends~

Lasting, entertaining, fun
Let me say that i played saints row 2 myself but what i cant understand is why so many people dislike this game compared to the previous titles. This games story can be frustrating some times when it comes to making some of the choices it gives you. But its worth it to see what happens to yourself and the saints in the end. I also need to say that even after the story, all challenges ,thefts, and assassinations. I still had plenty to do from collecting each of the rare vehicles racking up kills and money and just exploring / easter egg hunting. Yes the graphics are bad but what do you expect from an old game. the controls are simple and easy to learn as long as you leave the settings on basic.I still personally prefer saints row 2 over srtt.

Good at first
When I first bought this game I was blown away! Then I got further and further in the campaign and it was starting to go bad. Once I beat the game I was bored with it. There are alot of glitches in the game like getting your head stuck in a wall when driving or when you go on those open bridges on a motorcycle your vehicle crashes through it and it is stuck. It really starts to glitch further in the campaign more of. The city was cool at 1st but it then doesnt feel alive anymore. The combat with your fists is fun though! I love punching the trash out of cops. Especially when you press LT and you have to press buttons to make a combo. Your over powered in the game also. Its too easy. Its easy to get 5 star wanted level and you can survive it for as long as you feel like it. Your overpowered and the enemies are under powered. The story isnt that good but this game isnt meant for the story. Its meant for causing as much destruction as you can. I would reccomend this to a friend at 1st.

Not as good as I expected
I never played the first Saints Row, but I absolutely loved Saints Row 2. I played and beat that game over three times, and I messed around with other players just driving around and shooting and whatever. I was super excited when I heard about Saints Row: The Third and immediately pre-ordered it. The graphics had greatly improved, the driving was smooth and problem-free, but as a gamer, I really appreciate campaign modes. I loved the seriousness of Saints Row 2 and its brutality. Saints Row: The Third wasn't serious enough for me, and I really didn't find it funny at all. I missed feeling like I was actually in a gang defending my territory rather than running around fighting gangs that looked like they belonged in the movie Tron or the WWE. The game was fun, and I had a good time playing it, but it felt like the stupidity felt untrue to the title, and it really did it no justice. The music selection was also terrible, in my opinion. However, the cars and customization of them was great, and the clothing choices were also sub-par. Overall, a pretty decent game, I was just hoping that it would be more like Saints Row 2 rather than something silly.

Fantastic!!!
This game from the beginning was hilarious i enjoyed playing this game so much. the campaign is not too short and not to long. id say its kind of like grand theft auto but not i still think grand theft auto is better but this game is more funnier. Caution: when i play this game it glitches not that often but still enough to get annoying.

Saints Row The Third...
I just don't know. SR3 was the first game of the series I have ever played. I am not going to sugar-coat this review; I was disappointed. I am guilty of being a GTA fanboy, but that is why everyone recommended this game to me. Everyone said it outranked GTA IV by far, but it doesn't feel realistic. After you add all of the upgrades, you are nearly invincible and there is nothing else to do. The car handling feels cheesy, and vehicles are a big part of any games like this. The way you switch guns is a huge inconvenience...especially in the middle of a firefight. The way they incorporated zombies into a game of this type was clever, however, zombies do not belong in my honest opinion. All in all, the game feels too unrealistic for me. Hopefully the next one is a major improvement, but there is too much needed to be fixed to make it to my top 5 favorite games......

This game is sweet!
This is the most coolest game in history of saints row's. The saints row is back bigger and better and it is all awesomeness.

Steelport belongs to the Saints!
This game is the sequel to Saints Row 2 and is made by the same company. I believe it more than holds up to the legacy of saints row I believe it expands it.
