This looks SO MUCH BETTER than the Genkibowl.

Damn it. I need to get a copy of Saints Row.

Definitely this. The video's very beginning already made my night.

When you use the first female voice she says that jumping out of helicopters is getting so cliché.

This DLC was amazing. The gameplay got a little stale, but the humor was great.

Wasn't this Ryan and Jeffls idea? Was that a joke or are they due some recognition?

Kanji Tatsumi and Yukari Takeba co-starring in a movie. This is some weird stuff.

The director is also Yosuke Hanamura, or protag/Ryoji/scary little boy from Persona 3. I do agree that it's really weird. Thankfully, I had the black-guy voice when I played it.

Hey, dude who disputed that there are other VAs who are just as prolific and recognizable as Nolan North, you see this?

I swear, I don't believe I've played a voice-acted game this year that didn't feature Yuri Lowenthal in a pretty major role. The exception is maybe Super Street Fighter IV.

You can. Soon as you unlock Shandi's loft, it's added to your mission selection like any other and can be tackled whenever.

Wow quite a few of the lines are pretty different for each VO, my saints row lady never complained about her phone in that bit lol. Fun dlc but eh, bit short and the gameplay isn't really different to anything else in the main game.

I think aspects of ME1 are certainly better than ME2. ME2's world felt a lot more constricted than ME1's, even though I thought ME2's combat and planet exploration were generally better.

I enjoyed ME1's RPGish aspects, and was sad that they were stripped down or eliminated in ME2 - no doubt to try to appeal to a larger audience. Both games had their strengths.

Yeah, I can accept that it's only an hour or so, if it's all this funny.

"Hang on! I've got YOU!"

"Bad idea. Bad idea. Bad idea"

"It's called... a HELICOPTER. And I believe in YOU, Princess!"

So many amazing line deliveries. And the jacked up movie music with the BWAHHHHHs just seals the deal.

They did quite a bit to differentiate the different voices. I just played through as the russian female voice and I was surprised to discover that she has the hots for Pierce, which made for some really great lines during the mission where you're in disguise.

I knew that they altered some jokes and stuff for each VO but I can't believe that they went so far as to give them different character traits.

Has it's moments but this was not worth buying the Season Pass for. Now I know to never buy passes despite how much I love the original game! DISAPPOINTING!

Strictly alright if you ask me. I absolutely adored the original game and felt really let down by the Genkibowl DLC but I was looking forward to this because this was actual story missions. If you loved the pre-DLC stuff then you'll have a fun enough time to justify the purchase and play time but other than that I could take it or leave it.

Looks incredible, though the length is a bit disappointing. Still, it's more Saints Row, which is always a good thing.

Why oh why can't you replay missions in Saints Row 3? That was a fantastic feature in the second game that is sorely missing here, especially with fun missions such as these.

I just beat SR3, funnest game this gen. I love how they make fun and rip other games and movies. I also love how they place perfect music during the missions. Keep it up, although get a better performing engine. Making a tribute as silly as the game, check it out soon.

@Scotto: ME2 certainly had more strengths than weakness. For starters its DLC & Squadmates took a crap on the original (excluding Wrex, Garrus, & Liara who saved the whole squad from being boring drones). I also don't get why peopel get angered by the stripping of RPG elements. They were never deep to begin with. Mass Effect has always put shooter first rpg second. The gun mechanics from the first were clunky at best, not really....deep.

$7 seems pretty steep to me. Paying almost as much as you would for a full-length XBLA game for just three missions is sort of ridiculous. $8 would get you something like Warp, or Shank 2, or like, dozens of other games. DLC should never be priced within range of a full-length product.

They're both going for completely different styles of humor. I think they are as funny as one another.
