As you tear around town the traffic magically appears in front of your car. Mayhem activities ask you to destroy as much as you can before time runs out, but you may be at a loss for stuff to blow up. This is an open world but I wouldn't say it's a living world. I love the neon-lit towering skyscrapers of Steelport, but down in the streets things can seem quiet and lifeless. While definitely not up to the standards of recent AAA games, Saints Row 3's visuals go easy enough on the eyes. Many good times await after the campaign ends for those that want to achieve 100 percent. However, following the story is just half the fun, and when I completed the campaign after 14 hours of play I had only finished half of the side missions with an overall 72 percent completion. There are two endings (you'll get to see both), one a super downer and one that doesn't make any sense. Saints Row: The Third unfortunately falls apart at the end with a less-than-satisfying conclusion. You can toggle stations on and off or build a playlist of all the songs you like.

The licensed soundtrack - heard on car radios throughout the game - includes many fantastic songs ranging from hip-hop to electronic to classical. Plus, I really liked the voice actress portraying her.

I played as a lady (well, a female - she's definitely not a lady), and despite the fact that she's an amoral mass murderer, I believed she cared about her friends. But the character that matters most, my character, really won me over. People often swear for no reason in a way that feels really forced, and a pimp that only speaks in auto-tune and calls every girl a bitch gets old fast. That said, some of the immature characters, dialogue, and premises do make me cringe. It's not realistic, it's not 'art,' it's just a really good time. That's the beauty of Saints Row: The Third: it's not trying to be anything more than a fun game. Or, you can have it delivered right to you, wherever you are. So grab an F-69 VTOL hover jet, take it joy riding, crash it, then go home and grab another. In the spirit of staying out of the way of the player's good time, Saints Row 3 gives you an infinite supply of these recreational vehicles in your cribs. I was addicted to maximizing my hourly income and planning my character upgrades.Д«y completing certain story missions you gain access to badass vehicles like a transforming hover jet and a pixilated retro-game tank. Respect works like experience points, unlocking new abilities such as 'infinite sprint' and 'no fall damage.' Everything from near collisions while driving to running down the street naked earns you respect, which is fantastic game design - we're constantly rewarded for simply playing the game. Money can get you territory, weapons, upgrades, and threads. Pretty much anything you choose to do in Saints Row: The Third has been incentivized and will earn you either money or respect. My favorites are the Insurance Fraud missions, holdovers from Saints Row 2 that ask you to run into traffic and cause as much bodily harm to yourself as possible before time runs out. When you need a break from story missions you'll find loads of optional activities all over Steelport that boost your street cred and earn you cash. Saints Row the Third can be accused of being many things, but repetitive isn't one of them. вЂњBefore the credits roll you'll catsit a tiger, play a hilarious text adventure, get a sex change, hack up Mexican wrestlers with a chainsaw, visit a Tron-like computer world, and participate in many other ridiculous leisure activities.
