  • Summary: Years after taking Stilwater for their own, the Third Street Saints have evolved from street gang to household brand name, with Saints sneakers, Saints energy drinks and Johnny Gat bobble head dolls all available at a store near you. The Saints are kings of Stilwater, but their celebrity status has not gone unnoticed. The Syndicate, a legendary criminal fraternity with pawns in play all over the globe, has turned its eye on the Saints and demands tribute. Refusing to kneel to the Syndicate, you take the fight to a new city, playing out the most outlandish gameplay scenarios ever seen. Strap it on. … Expand

    Volition has done an excellent job of giving you a place to play and toys to play with, so grab a partner, an SMG, and start making your own stories.

    The Jersey Shore of videogames: fake, stupid, garish and endlessly amusing in a terrible and compulsive way. You'll hate yourself for loving it, but it won't stop you from coming back for more.

    Saints Row: The Third goes back to the roots of gaming. It is pure fun and doesn't take itself too serious. If you want a cool game that does not involve complex storylines, then Saints Row: The Third is a must have.

    Some amazing moments, some truly abysmal. Saints Row is wildly imaginative but the lack of technical polish and the weak combat mar the creativity. [Feb 2012, p.100]

    Great game!! Loads of fun with plenty to do!! Missions are crazy, reason it doesnt get a full 10 is there is no car showrooms or bike showroom where u can purchase vehicles like you could in saints 2 and no spinner wheels or car hydrolics which is i think a step back as were both featured in the previous games !!… Expand

    Ok I will start saying this is the best SR of the series. Graphics arent superb but are way better than previous. Car handling, respect, character upgrade, melee combat, sound, and vehicles have been really improved and there is not a single boring mission this time arround, but they are less and the game its really short if you ignore side missions and activities. Really loved it.… Expand

    This game is no where near as crazy as it would like to be, and it doesnt live up to any of the hype that came before it. But that doesnt take anything away from what is a great action game with some truely spectacular set peices. The voice acting is much better than some AAA titles out there and the story isnt to bad either. But its anything but original. Its worth a place in your game collection just to get away from all those serious time consuming titles that are without a doubt in everyones collection. Great stress buster too!!… Expand

    I really liked Saints Row and Saints Row 2 but this game is just absurd. If you like crazy gameplay with no real sense than this game is for you, but just not for me. Sorry but they overdone this third part in my opinion, i like fun and joke sand everything but this was too much. There is also not very much to do and you are through it very fast and i was very disappointed as a fan of the previous games. The only thing they made better are the graphics, the AI, the gameplay, the plot, the weapons and the whole city just got worse and short. What a pity! I wanted this so bad but this game is simply a shame for the series.… Expand
