It's refreshing to see a game that doesn't take itself too seriously. Never played any of the Saints Row games, but I'll definitely be giving this one a try.

Kinda looks like you're gonna be so overpowered that its going to be boring once the novelty wears off.
Of course, I haven't played a Saints Row before, so I hope that isn't how these games are...

Entertainment and enjoyment can be different though and although I agree with you I think in the long run I'll get more enjoyment out of Skyrim

Ultra cool weapons? Sold!

When I played Red Faction: Guerilla, I was quite impressed with how much fun Volition crammed into that game. This is missing the destruction, but it looks like their focus on dumb, entertaining shit to do is right up my ally.

Were you ever forced to do so in Saint's Row 2? I personally thought that the beauty of that game was that there was such a variety of side activities to build up your Respect that you could completely ignore the ones you didn't like.

About 30% of the way through that game I had enough Respect to finish the entire story (I think it actually maxed out) and I was never forced to do an activity that I didn't care for.

I wish I could just get me a dildo and slap random people with it in real life :(

But Saints Row: The Third fills that void! And I am now a happy man.

I don't really care about the sophomoric humor one way or the other, but this seems like an amazing sandbox.

That is... Fantastic.

Just one thing, Volition. Please do a better job for the PC version this time, instead of leaving it to the community to patch up your game. Strap it on, November 15th.

@WrathOfBanja:  Yeah I hope that's not the case.Cause from the looks of it it sounds incredibly easy since you are a god from the start.So I could see it getting boring real fast.Hopefully there is some challenge.

I think I would throw my disc against the wall if I have to heard that "KACHING KACHING" money sound after EVER goddamn explosion.I think my ears are still ringing.
 
And I guess they are still going with arcade controls for cars.Which I guess is ok I always liked the physics driven control in GTA:IV more it makes driving so much more interesting and suspenseful cause you don't know if your car is going to flip or not and when you crash it gets crazy.

I could not be more excited for this game, it's going hand in hand with Uncharted 3 for the game I wanna play the most, and making it harder and harder to argue in favour of Nate Drake.

The novelty of hitting people with giant dildos will wear off after about 30 seconds. The same can be said with all the other shit they showed. I'll Pass. I'll be to busy playing Uncharted 3 and Skyrim in November anyways.

STRAP IT ON! Oh my god this looks awesomely hilarious.

"...the leader of an elite criminal organization." while he was dancing like that made me laugh. As did "And then we decided to go ahead and add a tank." Johnny Gat-Mobile comment was great too.

The crazy melee combat stuff will cause hours of fun just smashing dudes faces' into the ground. And that has to be the smoothest way of entering a car I've seen in one of these. I mean, yeah, why open the door when you can just dive through the window?

When November 15th rolls around, I'll happily give Volition my money.

I passed on saints row 2 because I was a GTA snob. I got bored of GTA and was craving the gameplay so I decided to DL SR2 for 20 bucks. I've been playing the hell out of it for the past 2 days. The customization makes it way funner and more entertaining. I hope they stuff this full of custom stuff. Also I find the humor funnier than GTA. It had a solid soundtrack to for when it came out.
