The Saints have gone from a street gang to a household brand, but now they find their business and lives threatened by a new outfit called The Syndicate.
PROS
Over the top and highly entertaining gameplay, vast city to explore with many challenges and enough side missions to keep you busy, whored mode is brilliant.
CONS
Graphics are so-so, a few graphical glitches here and there, changing weapons isnt the most fluid affair, toilet humour could easily offend sensitive gamers.
VERDICT
You can easily dismiss Saints Row: The Third as a tacky GTA rip off, but since it doesnt take itself as serious as Grand Theft Auto, it comes across as a much more entertaining prospect.
