Saints Row: The Third (Xbox 360)

Some games create atmospheric worlds that attempt to draw you in with moving stories about characters seeking a second chance, or cast you as troubled superheroes who push themselves to the limit to fight evil. Saints Row: The Third is not like those...

Saints Row The Third Review

In this third instalment, The Saints have established their gang as the predominant and controlling force in Stilwater. They're now a marketable brand and with their own line in clothing and energy drinks, are happy to reap the benefits. Despite...

Saints Row: The Third attempts to surpass its predecessors in the crazy stakes, while providing a true sandbox experience, and somehow it manages to do so while waving massive sex-toys around. It’s an extremely well crafted box of tricks that allows...

Saints Row: The Third

You could nitpick on so many things here, but that wouldn't take away from the fact that Saints Row: The Third, with its fantastic visuals and use of music is miles ahead of anything that's come in the franchise before.

My favorite cheat by far though was the add money cheat which opens up a ton of activities in the city earlier than you'd normally be able to, and that's important when you're trying to get a sex change...

Saints Row: The Third Review

THQ certainly know where they're heading with the Saints Row franchise. In the run up to this game's release, all kinds of crude humour etched itself across the Internet, backed up by a television advertising campaign that knowingly nodded towards...

Certain missions are ridiculously brilliant. I don't want to spoil them!

Saints Row The Third

It'd be easy to look at Saints Row: The Third and dismiss it right away as another game catering to the immaturity of a wide group of gamers. It could be easy to pass it off as another game trying to hard to be offensive, wacky, and off-beat. Maybe...

Saints Row: The Third

Watching the Saints Row franchise grow over the years has been an interesting and fascinating series of events, somewhat akin to watching Gary Busey evolve from competent actor with a bright future to mad-as-a-hatter crazy-ass-motherfucker. Ironic he...

Volition gets many things right in Saints Row: The Third in what is no doubt a fine sequel, but it’s very much a case of sequelitis for the THQ franchise. The zany and over-the-top nature, well-written script and whole host of sandbox toys are held...

Review: Saints Row The Third

The dictionary defines a game as being 'an amusement or pastime', and video is defined as 'moving images stored as a series of static images' while the term video game (first coined in 1973) is defined as 'any of various games played using a...

Saints Row: The Third Review (Xbox)

Do you like blowing stuff up? Better yet, do you like blowing stuff up in absurd ways? Then you're probably going to love Saints Row: The Third. Over the course of three games, Volition's open world series has evolved from a Grand Theft Auto clone to a...

However, despite the new city, not much else has actually changed from Saints Row 2. Despite the large amount of activities scattered throughout the city, such as faking injuries for money or driving a flaming ATV, most of these side activities you...

Saints Row: The Third review: Voltion makes it rain purple on PS3, Xbox 360, PC

Alex joins the Saints for an explosive and explicit trip to Steelport. See how THQ and Voltion's Saints Row the Third measures up with our review.

Despite playing it fast and loose, Saints Row: The Third is more than equal to the sum of its occasionally rickety parts. It does plenty of things right, but qualifies as a success right out of the box because it understands what people tend do in...
