Quick Look: Saints Row: The Third

...Jeff's character reminds me of the cavemen in Geico commercials.

This game looks insane!

Isn't SR coming to Steam ?

This game is to the real modern world what Elder Scrolls is to real Medieval Europe. More so, really.

this game looks awesome

Amazing. Really, amazing. I'm laughing constantly. I've never cared much about GTA or games like it, but I think this makes a wonderful companion to skyrim for another game you can spend a lot of time in on the opposite side of the outrageous meter.

pffftt, who the hell needs Skyrim when this game is going to be out!?

So Jeff, are you sayin' you're not down with the Syndicate...

I might pick this up in the next couple of weeks. Once I've played some Skyrim.

Alright, I wanna play this game.

looks dumb.

so the default voice is Troy baker right

That's who he is! I knew he sounded familiar.

Fyi to everyone else, he voiced Kanji in Persona 4.

Human wavy tube man is FUCKED UP.

This quicklook actually sold me off the game; not impressed =/

Oop, the GPS still has that annoyingly loud flow of spazzing green dots. That always drove me crazy...I want to have my GPS on and be able to ignore it...not have it demand my attention like some kind of seizure inducing low rent internet advertisement.

It's a little detail yeah, but one that somehow has always really been in my face...I've actually actively been hoping that would change ever since SR1. Aaaand...so what, I'm still buying, just like I did before. Guess I'm one of the 44% of console owners that buys stuff.

Oh my God?! A multi platform game with the PS3 version being the star of the quicklook?! Have I died and gone to Giantbomb heaven? I thought for sure I'd see XB360 controls after a minute into this. Makes me think that the PS3 version might actually be the better one for once. Considering I only have a PS3 and high end PC, I preordered for PC cause I thought the PS3 copy would be gimped out and ugly compared to the rest. This is not the case at all, it looks great. Still, Volition has promised the PC version to be the best of the bunch. If this is true, then maybe, just maybe it'll make up for the terrible... TERRIBLE PC port of Saints Row 2. Just maybe...

Is it too much to ask for free 480p videos?

Excellent ql. I hope you guys get in some hours of co-op play before the review comes out. If it's anything like SR2, the experience changes drastically.

It seems Ryan's really enjoying the game. Was hoping he would be the one reviewing this time around.

OK Guys, you had me at Dildo Bat.

BUSINESS IN THE FRONT

PARTY IN THE BACK

it's already on steam

"It's stuff I would love to show you, but in this point in the story I've passed it, so it'd be hard to show."

Can't you replay story missions?

is it me or do the saints row games seem perfect for giant bomb

Was one station called Krhyme? Sold.

PLEEEEASE do 480p for us mere, shameless, non-paying parasites who can not watch it in HD... pretty please?

whoa....they are playing a multiplatform game on the ps3 and not the 360!?!?! shocking! Love you GB :)

I must be daft :) I did look I swear Capt'n !

This game seems tailor made for Jeff. It is like they studied him.

Jeff, doing the side stuff with a co-op partner is the most fun you can have in SR2, don't see why it wouldn't be the same here.

A SR3 co-op TNT would be pretty great.

Such for young dumb teens.

OFWGKTA is in this. Oh man.

Buffering? REALLY? Fuck this video player. Seriously, fuck it.

Goddamn dildo sword makes me laugh every time.

thumbnail...

No Johnny Gat in the phone book ;__;

ENERGY DRINKS BASED ON YOUR STREET GANG DAWG

Took me a while to place Viola's VO. Then it hit me, and imagining Kanji Tatsumi talking to a famous pornstar was reason enough to buy this game.

f'yeah!

this game looks perfect.

Can't wait for this & looking forward to it. Also after playing around with the character creator/initiation station, along with Ryan's tip, I'll definitely have to play through this again with the zombie voice though will go the same route as I did with SR2 which is to go with the female protagonist for the first playthough. Impressed though with the huge variety in the initiation station on all the characters you can make so they are on the right track with this one. Thx for the funny QL GiantBomb!

PUT ON A FAKE DICK.

I want this game. I want this soo bad.

I just heard Woo Boost on the radio, totally buying this now.

"stupid fun" games has a new greatest game entry. Wasn't on my Day 1 pick-up list, but now is mos def. Awesome!

I had no interest in this game until today and now I HAVE to play to. And Skyrim, after that awesome stream.

he's like a human wavy tube man... oh god...

"They can get bent as far as I'm concerned."  
 
How fitting.  

He picked Kanji's voice!

Looks pretty fun, but I think I'm done with GTA style open world games for a while. I'm not even excited for GTA:V. Maybe I'll get this next year when it is cheaper! Having a blast with the character creator demo though!

...For a person who has never liked games built around committing crime... I really want to get this.
