About this deal

LOTS of Guns – Shoot revolvers from the hip, fire and forget with a rocket launcher, or obliterate up close using melee heavyweights, complete with brutal takedowns. Unprecedented Customization – Create the Boss of your dreams, with the most extensive character customization suite ever seen in the series, then complete the look with incredible options for weapons and vehicles. We see it all too often when a game’s poor launch consigns it to the virtual gallows before it’s even received a first proper update or any new content – looking at you F1 Manager 2022! The Vice Kings, Los Carnales and Westside Rollerz are now The Brotherhood, The Ronin, and the Sons of Samedi.

As a result, the reception was polarising, with some players enjoying the new direction while others lamented the loss of the franchise’s signature charm and humour. Having ‘Homies’ with different traits join you and the ability to customise cars and weapons is also attributed to the Saints games. It’s fun, it has a great story (not so much a great ending, but I won’t spoil it) and it reviewed well.

Bursting onto the scene in 2006 on the Xbox 360, many wrote off Saints Row as little more than a Grand Theft Auto clone. Dive into epic gunfights and highspeed chases, and witness outrageous only-in-Saints-Row moments in an original story that charts the Saints’ remarkable rise to power. Experience the biggest and best Saints Row playground ever created; the unique sprawling world of Santo Ileso is the backdrop for a wild, larger than life sandbox of thrilling side hustles, criminal ventures and blockbuster missions, as you shoot, drive and wingsuit your way to the top.

Rescued by The Saints, you become their latest initiate, setting out on a journey to take back The Row, and then take over the city of Stillwater. If it launched in its current state, I feel that the reviews would have been far more positive as the focus would have been on what a fun game it is rather than the dire state players found it in when firing Saints Row up for the first time.The standard edition of the game is the Day One Edition, with retailers including the Idols Anarchy Pack as a bonus. It contains the base game, Idols Anarchy Pack, Saints Criminal Customs, Los Panteros American Muscle Bundle, the Expansion Pass, and Saints Row: The Third Remastered. But, as is the way with modern game releases, external pressures forced its release before it was really ready. Saints Row experienced a rocky launch, with players encountering numerous issues that affected the overall gaming experience.

Although this worked well for Saints Row 2 and 3, it would also be responsible for the major criticism levelled at Saints Row 4. People’s criticisms included things such as the character designs, feeling that they lacked the charm and uniqueness of the previous titles in the series. Our promise to you - you can’t lose – join today and if you receive less points back from purchases than the fee you have paid for your membership for 12 months, we will give you the difference back in points. Set in the fictional city of Santo Ileso, the game puts players in control of a customizable character, as they establish a criminal empire, engage in combat, and complete missions. Hearst UK is the trading name of the National Magazine Company Ltd, 30 Panton Street, Leicester Square, London, SW1Y 4AJ.I can’t help but think that due to the amount of work required and the technical issues in the run-up to launch, elements of the game were sacrificed or paired back to get them in a working state for launch. With the impending launch of Deep Silver’s next big title, Dead Island 2, and that it’s nearly 8 months to the day since Saints Row launched, I thought it a good time to revisit Saints Row and see what state the game is in today and give it a fresh look.

Retailer GAME is selling a Criminal Customs Edition that includes the bonus items Saints Custom Convertible and Saints Custom Stab Jacket. The Dubstep Gun and the Mollusc Launcher are two prime examples of the surreal vibe Saints Row The Third was going for. Unlike the last two editions that we covered, this one is actually only available as a physical copy on all platforms but PC.

Build Your Criminal Empire – Take over the city block by block, wage war against enemy factions and tighten your grip on the streets with ingenious criminal ventures.
