Head cheap-ass at Cheap arse Gamer and my breakfast friend CheapyD shelled out to appear in Saints Row 3. It wasn’t just because Cheapy loves Saints Row (he does), it was also for a good cause.
Fistbeard McTavish has an awesome name. He also writes top reader reviews. This one is another peach. You should read it!
Ah Saints Row – is there anything you won’t attempt to parody? This time round the po-faced style utilised in trailers for Battlefield 3 and Modern Warfare 3 is the target. Inside: a man in a pink cowboy hat pulling a rickshaw, a rabbit firing a rocket launcher, hoverbikes and a man getting hit in the testicles with a briefcase.
In the grand tradition of the Classification Board leaking video games before they’ve been officially announced, we’ve just found this: an official classification for Saints Row Money Shot.
Saints Row has never been about subtlety and the third instalment is no exception. In fact, the amount of wacky action is being pushed past xXx levels. In the newest gameplay video the saints are taken captive aboard a jet. After a few threats, shoots ensue, both in the plane and falling from the sky. You want stupid ridiculous action? Why not fall through a plane just to shoot a few bad guys? Why not indeed.
Most trailers have explosions. Or at least some fire. This Saints Row: The Third trailer has all over the above. Also – human surfing and dance explosions. Which are at least 20 times better than regular explosions.
