Saints Row The Third

SaintsRowTheThird_DX11 2011-11-21 23-19-17-56

Saints Row 2 has always been one of my favourite games, so i was very excited for Saints Row The Third.
As with the first and second Saints Row it's all about (over the top) gang violence, with lots of humor added to the mix.
And Saints Row The Third delivers, so far i am having a blast, eventhough the game still has some of the same glitches/problems Saints Row 2 has, like npc's/cars dissapearing if you look the other way and i had a few times where the game simply "stopped  working" which is kind of annoying.
Although this time they definatly did a lot more work on the pc version, Saints Row 2 really was a console port and had a lot more problems because of that, plus the DLC that came out on the console never made it into the pc version.

I have always been a fan of (real) open world games and when it comes to that Saints Row is one of the best, as the world is not devided in seperate parts that you have to unlock (like GTA), you can straight away, do anything you like and go anywhere you like without having to stick to the main storyline.

The storyline really has a lot of hilarious story and over the top violence so if you're looking for a good time Saints Row really is a good choice, if you like that kind of stuff of course.

I have spend many hours playing Saints Row 2 (according to Raptr 189 hours) and have no doubt i will be spending many hours in Saints Row The Third.

Soloing isn't that bad :)

I have not been playing any MMO's for at least a couple of weeks, but i've been having a lot of fun with Saints Row 2.
Despite many flaws/bugs, like stuff dissapearing in front of your eyes, framerate issues (try driving a car through traffic with 7 FPS) not to mention that when i installed the game i had to download some third party DLL files to make it run, apperantly i had to "emulate" my keyboard and mouse to an Xbox controler to stop the menu from scrolling...
Also until a recent update, i couldn't run this game in widescreen (16:9 resolution)...

They obviously put very little work in making this PC port, bad, bad job :(

But having said that i am still having a lot of fun playing this game.

I also got GTA 4 for the PC (allready played it on the X360, but never finished it), but i am liking Saints Row a lot more.

Next to that i started playing the old Fallout games, i got Fallout and Fallout 2 through GOG.com, i have to admit i never played them before, but since i like Fallout 3 so much i really wanted to check them out and for $12 what's there to loose right?

So for now it looks like i will be mainly playing single player games, but might get back into some MMO's sometime soon... or am i done playing MMO's..??
