Saints Row The Third

How in the hell do you compare ME to SR?

[Maynard]

gta rip offs...yes and no. SR took all the great things of GTA and some other sandbox titles and put them into their game. imo, SR was a much better game than GTA because it just did everything right. Plus the story was really good and offered a nice twist that was unexpected at the end of SR1

SR2 was the better game and was way better than GTA. plus the coop mode was great. Plus you had alot of bells and whistles like player customizations, wardrobe and car editor stuff. I loved designing me some pimped out rides.

The Mass Effect series is leaps and bounds superior then SR1-2.

It may be opinion based and to each his own, but SR1-2's story lines just weren't any good.

Oh jeez. They are two completely different games. Saints Row isn't about story. It's about unadulterated action, blowing shit up, laughing and having fun.

True, but considering I was responding to a post that brought up both the ME series and the SR series and the poster not playing either and him already not having time. I was helping him out a bit and telling him which series is superior.

This game just keeps getting better.

An auto-tune headset with the CE? Awesome. Too bad it doesn't work with PSN/Live.

One of my favorite franchises......so damn fun. Once its out it will be all I play until I am done the single player.

I'm not watching that story trailer. Not that I think the story will be amazing but I just want to enjoy the game without knowing every damn detail about it.

• Get an interracial sex change
  
  Saints Row: The Third lets you customize your character to your own specifically perverted liking. We started out playing as a white dude. Boring, right? So we stopped by the plastic surgeon and before we knew it we were a hot Asian girl. Next, we cranked up our sex appeal until our boobs would give us serious back problems. In order to get the full benefit of our assets, we made our character topless (although the boobs will appear highly pixilated while running around the game). We added a cheerleader miniskirt and, the piece de resistance, a giant wolf head mask.
  
  So our character was a hot Asian girl with huge boobs running around in just a short miniskirt and a wolf mask. Many boyhood fantasies were fulfilled.
  
  The character customization goes much deeper than this example. You can set an age, give yourself blemishes and scars, and even select a voice. Want to be a she-hulk or a 90-year old crack whore zombie? The only limit is your effed up imagination.

• Play in traffic.
  
  Saints Row: The Third has Insurance Fraud missions, which give you a limited amount of time to cause a certain amount of damage to your own body. We would find a busy intersection and just lay down in the middle, letting tons and tons of metal do their worst to our fleshy frame. Not only is it quite enjoyable to watch yourself be ground into the cement by a semi truck, but you also earn valuable respect points. Because you're obviously a psychopath, and no one wants to f^@$ with you.

I own the fist 2 SR but have never gotten far in either one...no surprise. I end up just going all over the city and get tired of the driving. Today I put in PS3's Saints Row 2 because I don't want to get 3 w/o finishing the storyline of 2. I played it for ~5hrs, just focusing on the Asian gang storyline. It was a good break from playing NCAA.

I liked GTA: SA but this one so far is a close 2nd. My favorite part has to be the odd jobs I've done, such as security to celebs, fight club, to driving the sewage truck. I end up doing the jobs till I get past the 5th level (except for security guard...I'm stuck on 3rd level). I finally put it down and got to ~14% done. I might try to play SR1 (X360) but I started with 2 because everyone seems to like it so much over the first. I already know the ending to 1, so that's not important to me.

I never played the 1st 2. I thought this was just a poorly done knock off of GTA. Maybe I should pick em up, no that Ill ever finish em. Maybe Ill wait till this comes out and get it.
