About

Years after taking Stilwater for their own, the Third Street Saints have evolved from street gang to household brand name, with Saints sneakers, Saints energy drinks and Johnny Gat bobblehead dolls all available at a store near you. The Saints are kings of Stilwater, but their celebrity status has not gone unnoticed. The Syndicate, a legendary criminal fraternity with pawns in play all over the globe, has turned its eye on the Saints and demands tribute.

    The story missions will have you rolling with laughter, and there’s no setback if you find yourself in the middle of a shootout between all three gangs and the Steelport police. It’s just all good fun. And with all the craziness going on in the world, it’s nice to have a game to lose yourself in that makes you not take yourself quite as seriously and reminds you to be thankful for the time you have and tackle life one day at a time.

    Overall there isn’t much more to say about Saints Row: The Third Remastered because, all in all, it’s the same game I loved back in 2011. Underneath a fairly fresh coat of paint is the same adrenaline pumping, juvenile story of a gang-turned-media-sensation trying to rebuild itself. In that regard, assessed purely in a vacuum, this game is a smash hit.

    Saints Row: The Third - Remastered is about the minimum you can expect from a remaster. It looks better, contains all of the DLC, and it does what it needs to do. However, you can't escape the fact that Saints Row 4: Re-Elected, which is already available, hits almost all of the same marks while being a more enjoyable game with almost all of the same features and significantly better humor.

    Saints Row: The Third Remastered is an impressive return to this title. The developer went out of their way to bring this title back with plenty of upgrades and overhauls to make it feel like we remember. I do wish the game remained locked at 60fps on the newer consoles, even if it sacrificed some of the resolution though. As it stands this is the best version of the game to date and a perfect excuse for me to overrun Steelport once again.

    With Saints Row: The Third Remastered, however, Sperasoft and Volition have pretty much improved every single asset and implemented graphical features that make it stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the prettiest open world games available right now. This is still Saints Row: The Third – which is to say that it’s one of the most enjoyable open-world games ever made – only now it looks and plays better then ever.

    Saints Row The Third Remastered has done a good job of touching up the original. All of the DLC content that has been added to the title should encourage those interested to pick this up. Fans of the series that missed this one would definitely enjoy this instalment. Those interested in GTA style games should give this game – or at least this series – a try as there is a lot of fun to be had here.

    Saints Row: The Third Remastered

    I am glad I was able to play this game with enhanced graphics with the new generation consoles. This game is in the middle for me. An open-world, GTA-style game with plenty of entertaining moments and happenings. It is weirdly fun, to be honest. That's what Saints Row is all about by the way. I finally got to understand the SR4 I've played years ago after beating this game. The mechanics are too simple, hoping to see at least some more interactions in the world itself. The music is so sick. It matches the mood of every aspect of the game. The open-world gameplay is at least entertaining, to be honest, the characters and their developments are somehow too obvious to predict. How I wish they improved the writings of this game. Overall, the graphics are great, especially this Remastered version. **VISUALS** _Artistry: 10/12_ _Technical Merit: 6/8_ **SOUND DESIGN** _Music: 12/12_ _Sound Effects & Vocals: 8/8_ **INTERACTION** _Control & Interface: 5/8_ _Player Agency: 5/8_ _Accessibility: 2/4_ **MECHANICS** _Feedback & Fun: 8/10_ _Depth: 4/5_ _Variety: 3/5_ **CHARACTER** _Narrative: 5/8_ _Heart: 6/6_ _Originality: 5/6_

    If GTA had a parody, this would be it.

    My first thought on the game was, "Is this a parody of GTA?". Its a fun, messy and wacky but a beautiful remaster of the original. The characters are polished and look amazing. In this game, you are the leader of SAINTS ROWS, which is a gang. Though you are at the top of the food chain, you do not get any benefits of being the boss as you are just an errand boy like every other open-world game. I would have loved to control the gang and show them sometimes why I am the boss but the game doesn't give you that opportunity.
