Aztaro Reviews Saints Row the Third

Title: Saints Row the Third
Platform: Xbox 360, Playstation 3, PC
Genre: Shooter, Racing, Sandbox, Fool-around, Mini-Game, Customization
Online Interaction: Co-op, Downloadable Content

Story: You are the leader of the now famous [and infamous] Saints, becoming so popular to having product lines such as drinks, clothes, toys and more. But keeping to your roots you go out and rob a bank with your buddies Johnny Gat and Shaundi... with a movie actor practicing for a role. Long story short someone has set up a trap for your heist, you get captured, forced to jump out of a plane [twice] and when you make it back to earth you are left no money and no help at all. This is where you start with getting your revenge

Sadly I can't tell you more without spoilers and not the ones on the back of cars. This game is what most people want out of Grand Theft Auto when they run out of "serious" things to do. With Streaking, mascot killing, races, assassinations, "Whored Mode", television game shows with killing people and a WHOLE lot more, this game will keep your attention with it's supreme silliness. I went to watch the new games coming out, some so serious I almost forgot how Saints Row is never serious when I saw the preview for the new game. Anyway point aside, good mechanics, good navigation mechanics and customization. This game is something you want to play with friends around or to get a good laugh.

Rating: 90/100

Reason: This game is fun, silly and can bring some surprises. The problem is that Co-op tends to be glitchy, no matter how good the connection, DLC kills any new characters you make due to HAVING A TANK right once you get your first crib [aka right after bank heist] and being able to take over part of the city with a click of a button and get a decent cash flow. Though everything in the game, is fun, there's no doubt to that just needs less glitchy co-op, I seriously fell through the world, lost my partner do to a car driving though my bike on their half and I got stuck in the ground, unable to be recovered, definite must have.
