This is going to sell very well to the male 16 to 23 year old market, basically high school and college. Probably a fast taper before and after because mommy will be pissed or the wife will be yelling at you get something done once she starts hating the stuupid game...in her eyes, anyways.

After all this amazing marketing I just can't expect anything else than a disappointment.

Who are Tim & Eric?

So far, this is the only commercial for SR:TT that I haven't enjoyed.

This game really has shown the greatest surrealistic advertising campaign for a video game ever. Genius.

They had a show on Adult Swim that contained a lot of dumb, random skits. As you can probably tell already, I'm not a fan.

I see they've licensed the Aphex Twin face and the soundtrack to Tetris Battle Gaiden.

The weirdest part about this game is the title.

Saints Row The Third instead of just 3? Is this like a weird reference to Shrek the Third?

Complete and total Bats*^t insanity, good thing too. I am tired of reality creeping into my games, I was raised by a mad plumber and his brother who would get high on mushrooms and set fire to entire neighborhoods they thought were evil kingdoms all in search of a damn "Princess" they could never seem to find.

There are quite a few people who rip their style. If Tim and Eric did trailers for SR III, it would be a lot better.

I will chainsaw Professor Genki's Head in half and inter his remains in a fabulous tomb made of pimp corpses and car hulks. I will do it for the respect. Then I will go back to throwing tourists off of cliffs and other high places.
