@@Amberclad He didn't hate it. I bought the second game and can see where he's coming from. If the Saints Row is sassed for being a GTA ripoff, then Saints Row 3 feels a ripoff of Saints Row itself, especially 2. In fact, the last line about perversion hits the mark for what I think the game does wrong. 6/10 from Joe basically means you'd best go into this blind without knowing Saints like I did if you wanna enjoy 3. Thankfully, I feel like I'll certainly enjoy both now for different reasons.
@@punisher8715What I think of the game itself is it was simply entertaining even though it's comically extreme and pushed the over-the-top meter to the limit, it still had a cool story it even has alternate endings on the last mission which I liked. The game may not be like its oldman SR2 But there were some gold bars under all those floorboards.
@XRandom CityX Yeah, what that f**ker did to Carlos, was UNFORGIVABLE. After everything Carlos did for the Saints, and especially for our main character in SR2, only to get the most brutal death in the series for no real reason, at least until that douche Maero explains why he did it and why he went after Carlos in his audio log in SR4. It was because the Saint's leader, (our main character), didn't take his bs offer, and then, the Saints kidnap Maero's girlfriend, and then, burn his face, because payback's a b**ch, eh Maero?
+Will Drummond no its not its the opposite of funny which is boring. its an open world game the fun needs to be a part of it not just in the short campaign that you cant replay and no multiplayer nigga and graphics sucks and AI sucks harder and content in this game are not original what i mean is the weapons they all from other games check my channel nigga
In SR2 you get to play in a city that is somewhat realistic and varied, there are many types of NPC's doing regular things (writing mails or journals on their laptops, doing tai chi in the park, and college students having frat parties) where the beauty and fun of the game comes to show when you can randomly steal a septic tank and start spraying shit on people because you just feel like it. In SR3 the fun in all the craziness falls to the groin and everything is deliberately made over the top to try and be funny, as if Steelport is a city where psycho sex shit happens all the time, as if it happens on a daily basis, in which case you don't feel like you are fucking shit up because shit is already fucked up.
Saints Row 2 felt like a tryhard GTA San Andreas clone. I loved Saints Row 3 and 4 for making itself a new world instead of more 2edgy4me gang and crime shit we've seen numerous times.
Saints row 4 is better than Saints Row 3. Saints Row 2 and 4 are the best games in the franchise. I love saints row 2 for offering a sandbox world that feels alive and gameplay that is fun as hell. An example of why SR2 is better, fighting mechanics are better than in SR3, in SR3 starting a fight with a random pedestrian is boring as fuck as it's no fight at all, it's a fucking bullshit QTE that doesn't even make any difference whether you press the buttons or not, in SR2 you could keep a challenging fight going for a long time if you found a gang of pimps (who seem to be everywhere) who would go so far and use improvised weapons to fight with. "Big deal the melee weapons are better in SR3" Fuck no, the only weapon that's interesting is the apocafist, the dildo is just a flopping baseball bat, SR2 had a Katana, a Chainsaw, a electroshock charge that you could use to revive your enemy if you feel you killed them off too quickly. Saints Row 2 is a better game than Saints Row 3 on even more aspects than what I just mentioned, I didn't even mention the activities or the clothes costumization. Saints Row 2 feels in no way like a San Andreas knock off since it has so much more to offer than San Andreas ever had. And if you still like SR3 better that's up to you, but just know that it's a fact that SR3 sucked. We can agree that Saints Row 4 is awesome as hell.
I read an article a while back that said why the developers switched publishers after SR3. The publisher wanted over the top sex jokes and content and a more linear style after SR2. Devs did it but were not happy. There was actually a completely different version of SR3 almost finished that was cancelled in favor of the one released.

SR3 was a major disappointment compared to SR2. SR4 pretty much shed the shit left behind by SR3, but decided to, instead of making it more like SR2, but with great controls......SR4 plays in the past of all games, and never getting an identity of its own. SR2>SR1>SR3>SR4.
UnBR0k3enAngel no SR2 is just a different game, more like gta with more freedom and crazier stuff But SR 3 is only one thing AWESOME, i loved SR2 but the third is just one of the coolest games ever
SR3 would have been a fantastic stand-alone game, if it had nothing to compare it to but GTA. SR2 was superior, but SR3 was actually really good and fun. It's too fast paced to compare both of the games.
You think the forced missions are THAT bad, you have to consider the fact side missions and diversions are mostly mandatory on Saints Row 2 which can be annoying when you want to go through the story and worry about the extra stuff later. The side missions for Saints Row 2 is the only convenient way to gain enough respect to do a mission.
True, but in The Third, activities were forced upon you, such as the Cyber Blazing for Kinzie and the Escort with a tiger for Angel while in SR2 you're free to play any activity you'd like, to gain respect.
True, but they have story based explanations and they are fairly explained well. Also the key word is some. SR2 only allowed you to do that activity 6 times before you can no longer get respect from them which is only good for about most of one gang without the strong holds. Finally, none of the story stuff requires you fill in respect. Respect is used to unlock bonuses and upgrades that can really save your ass. Longer health bar, unlocking unlimited(ammo and energy for running), and increased defense to different areas.(And the stuff that benefits your homies is a beast of it's own) Short version, stuff that can make the playthrough even more comfortable. Not all of them are that hard when done through the story mind you(Trail Blazing is quite easy). Heck, you have to go out of the way to get the harder versions of activities. Heck, some versions of the activities are pretty cool. There's actually a trail blazing where you can ride that tiger.
I only said "some" because I didn't remember if all the activities were forced or not, I haven't played The Third since 2012 before I traded it. Also, I'm not saying the new side activities were that bad, I only had mentioned Cyber Blazing & the Tiger Escort since I remembered having to do those to continue, but now I also remember Mayhem, Tank Mayhem, Guardian Angel, and Professor Genki's Super Ethical Reality Climax being requirements as well so I'm guessing they all were, at some point.
i dunno about you, but i would just go around and go on a rampage killing a bunch of other gangs, and i got lots of respect for that. And most of the activities were pretty fun
+Corrina Rittenhouse And give no reasons, probably cause you were thinking for some kind of reason that isn't forced or shit but couldn't think of one. Probably cause SR2 is actually superior in every way besides the PC port.
SR2 nowadays have only good story but dont you even start on activities! I dont want to see in other game to do 3 levels of actvity to get a 5% discount on food in game!!! like wtf? and every activity in SR2 is quite hard compared to SR3 and SR4 so doing all activities on level 5 can extend your gameplay pretty well thats true but when you get this shitty reward you dont want do anything and just focus on story. and playing SR2 on PC is quite buggy
Fanatik456 All side quests in sr4 are just literally forcing you into activities rather than being actual creative side quests which is fucking stupid. God damn it, sr2 will always be the best.
apparently they lost the source code for 1 and 2 so rumors are saying that they are completely recreating the 2 instead of a normal remaster. so even better
Yeah, I'm having a great time too. Creating and dressing your own character and then seeing them in all the cutscenes, etc is lots of fun. Then again, I've never played SR1 or SR2. Maybe SR3 is disappointing compared to those?
zemixerus I guess only the ex-fans have been disappointed by it , saint row The third Is the only saint row game I've played and I had a blast playing it
It seems that SR3 is an entirely different game than 2 and 1, so it's understandable why fans from those games would feel alienated as the direction of the franchise took a 180 into a very zany crime sandbox. But as someone who played SR 3 first, it definitely feels much more enjoyable than the other games.
😂 I just got to that part, and I immediately looked for this! 🤣 I understand 2's hyper fans being pissed, but Saints Row 3 is gold! I have found memories of 2, but I'm still playing 3 and *LOVING IT!* (Also, did you know the you can avoid the QTE melee by rolling up beside an opponent? I'm currently enjoying 3 as one of the greatest souls like melee combat games; only against firearms, supermutants, and vehicles, but I see people rag on the system *A LOT.* Am I the only person who realized this early on, and I just had a completely unique experience?)
Saints Row The Third had so much character, I just wish the city looked more interesting with more to experience like bars and such. It's just a charming game, despite how depraved it is haha I love it!
The problem with the Saints Row series as a whole is that they keep dropping great features from the previous title that were amazing, while adding some whatever stuff.
Saints row 1&2 were great in my opinion and to be honest I had a lot of fun with sr3 and at the time I didn't notice that the series was becoming more over the top but now I have realised that the original story line for the series went from gangs fighting over territory to what it is today and I never had thought saints row as a GTA clone its probably because sr1 and GTA S.A came out very near each other but I loved the original,the 2nd and the new style of games we have today
There's a song in this game that's not listed on the official soundtrack. The artist's name is something like "Dizazta Muzik," or something of the sort. Does anyone know what it's called?
***** He didn't liked Saints Row: The Third because while it was kinda fun(notice the 'kinda' part), it didn't had a good writing like the second one, and while second one balanced out the crazy-ness and the seriousness, The Third is like a storm of crazy-ness, and like he said, it doesn't even have a good writing, so he didn't enjoyed the game all that much. Watch_Dogs, while he didn't liked the story, graphics, etc, he enjoyed the game a lot more the Saints Row: The Third. The gameplay was so great that it was enough for Joe to give it a 7/10 rating. Also, why does someone having a different opinion then you equals being paid off? Are you serious?
I've arrived from the future... Angry Joe videos. You, sir, have been improved since 2009 (2011 vid, I know, but it's the same in my books), and congrats on that.
Hey Joe. Remember that time when we didn't believe you when you said there was going to be a Saints Row 4. Damn, maybe you should say there is going to be an Elders Scrolls Vl. By the way, hilarious review Joe. Keep doing what your doing. We all love it.
@@BooBooDaFoo330 With all the controversy, the actual game was the least worst thing they did with Fallout 76. Bags, bottles, bans, and broken promises about ptw.
No dude literally the reason I was so addicted to this game was because of the character I accidentally made through fucking around and making some odd character, and I made and orange and black variant of Harley Quinn and making her in every game was literally SO much fun.
Saints row 2 had such a good story, one of the most engrossing stories i think i have ever played in a game. Once i got an hour in that was in, i completely the whole thing in more less one dedicated weekend
I can't say I disagree. While I do think the game is still fun if you're a hardcore SR fan like me, it does have some annoyances which will bug different people for different reasons. My personal ones: 1.) The cribs are all the same on the inside. In Saint's Row 2, your safe houses could be customized down to individual furniture. In SR3, they're all the same on the inside with the exception of your Downtown Penthouse. They all look awesome on the outside and you can make them bigger and more opulent, but on the inside they're all still the same and you cannot change anything. 2.) The weapons system was screwed to Hell. What were previously core items in my loadout in Saint's Row 2 are now grouped into the same weapon class for no reason, so I can't equip them all and so I find myself unprepared for certain situations because I don't know what is coming next. So I just pick something different before every mission based on what I know about it before going into it and hope I'm ready. But 9/10 I went in and I was like, "Yeah that sniper rifle would've been helpful; maybe an airstrike." 3.) The customization gave us more and yet fewer options. Whereas before I could customize every individual piece of clothing - vests, coats, ties, shoes, socks, etc. - with patterns and colors and what have you, I'm now locked into these premade "upper" and "lower" body things. So I feel I've lost a lot of customization options, while I do like what we've been given. I suppose for the price of customizing every little piece we get a wider variety of bases and presets we can't change. Also no socks, which can sometimes ruin outfits where your legs are still showing because the shoes are made for a specific pair of shoes. Kind of lazy and restrictive, that. 4.) The rush to make the game linear has diluted some of the original game's best features, like making taking territory pretty pointless just for getting an edge. When I first played SR2 I instinctively went around buying up all the property, making the money to do so through activities but also through robbing stores I didn't own yet and using my revenue to just keep investing in real estate and growing. I did this because the only game I'd ever played that did this was the Godfather video game (the second one sucked, the first one was great) and in that game there were serious benefits to getting all the rackets and businesses. Not only would you have more money than you knew what to do with, but your guys would patrol the streets and if you ever got in a tight spot you always knew were to go if you needed backup or if someone tried starting something with you, backup was right there. Personally in games like this I'd like to see gangs retreat rather than just keep pushing non-stop against an insurmountable defense. Anyway, in SR2 if you had all the territory, because the game world was not instanced all your guys would still be walking the streets during missions. If you ever got in trouble or in a chase, your boys would show up and help you out - even during supposedly "cinematic" moments I saw them show up and even the odds drastically. I remember one escort mission I did where my gang members almost took care of the enemy totally on their own - and I played on Hardcore in all the SR games. It felt like taking territory and expanding your gang's influence really meant something. In this game? All the missions are instanced, so my guys aren't usually there to help me unless the game puts them there. This was definitely infuriating as it felt like all my hard work basically conquering the streets of Steelport was meaningless except in giving me more cash. What's even worse is now activities are tied to region control, which makes little sense to me. On top of there being less stores and I have to drive farther for things, it makes these odd pockets of no control. It was infuriating and bothersome. I guess it's good because now I have gangs I can still go slap around until I'm ready to do the side missions, and I did really want the gangs to be around by the end of SR2 when I got all the military-grade kit because I wanted to slaughter them, but still. This is something that bugs me as what I got a lot of joy from in SR2 was growing my holdings. I have some personal gripes related to thinks I would've liked to see - like giving the Saints more Paramilitary options in their customization and such. I always liked playing the Saints as my own private army. It's good that we have the Guardsman and Cop options now or I would be more upset. I practically mangasmed when I got the Bodyguard skins in SR2. Great game? Nah. Good game? If you're a hardcore fan of the franchise and just want some more context for SR4, sure.
My main problem with third is activities. In SR2 you could choose witch one you wanna do. For example - I love insurance fraud and hate mayhem. So I'm able to choose wich filler will be between the main missions.
You forgot to mention that steelport is a boring city, as compared to stilwater. Yeah SR2 is incredible. Btw in sr3 I think the graphics are better because I have the PC version.

"Big deal the melee weapons are better in SR3"
Fuck no, the only weapon that's interesting is the apocafist, the dildo is just a flopping baseball bat, SR2 had a Katana, a Chainsaw, a electroshock charge that you could use to revive your enemy if you feel you killed them off too quickly.

The only people who hated it were the fan boys of sr2
I actually think SR3 is pretty good. Maybe not as good as SR2, but in some ways is superior to it.
+Michael Prymula
the control system. the feel of the character, driving, gunplay. its pretty but short.
+Corrina Rittenhouse And give no reasons, probably cause you were thinking for some kind of reason that isn't forced or shit but couldn't think of one. Probably cause SR2 is actually superior in every way besides the PC port.
Tenzing Khedup It's very superior
SR2 nowadays have only good story but dont you even start on activities! I dont want to see in other game to do 3 levels of actvity to get a 5% discount on food in game!!! like wtf? and every activity in SR2 is quite hard compared to SR3 and SR4 so doing all activities on level 5 can extend your gameplay pretty well thats true but when you get this shitty reward you dont want do anything and just focus on story. and playing SR2 on PC is quite buggy
Fanatik456 All side quests in sr4 are just literally forcing you into activities rather than being actual creative side quests which is fucking stupid. God damn it, sr2 will always be the best.
damn 10 years ago....
came here after viewing the trailer for the new game. a better time wasn't it...
Don’t tell Joe that they’re remastering SW3 instead of 2
apparently they lost the source code for 1 and 2 so rumors are saying that they are completely recreating the 2 instead of a normal remaster. so even better
Commander Wyro they recently found the source code and they said that they’ll fix the pc port sr2
@@morphingtime2000 they’ve officially said on Twitter they have no plans on remastering older games
This is one of my favorite games. I prefer all SR games than GTA
same here
Colossal Titan I'm imagining the Colossal Titan playing Saints Row and using a computer. xD
Jamebro so you're saying, just because i'm taller than everyone, means i cant use a computer......i see how it is.
I Agree GTA5 Got boring so fast.
Jamebro It's quite easy to imagine... read the manga ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Seven years later, still my favorite AJ video by far.
SluggChrist64 It was because of the rap, wasn't it? or the purple dildo? Yeah, man, I don't blame you.
I can't believe OJ actually went in the store for AJ.Was he even getting paid back then?if not I'd be like "F-U Dude!"
His is the other joe actual joe needs but not deserves.
"I don't care how fucked up your face is" best line out of all the SR games!
Here years later to hear that Drop That Dookie once again lmao. We need a remix
Your reviews are done so well that I can rewatch them for the 10th time just for entertainment 😂😭
i love the guy at the beginning
for a price he might love you too...
@@malcolmboyd3467 😂🤣🔥
We need a Spotify release of "Drop that dookie" asap
this puts the new Hipster's Alley to shame
if he's reviewing SR3 why is SR2 on the screen
Just because he didn't review saints row 2
It's still a great game, even though it doesn't beat Saint's Row 2 which was legendary game (at least for me)
Dude sr2 is better, as it has a very active and alive city, more activities and many more missions and better story.
he said that in comment...
Tonnato The Annoying WHAT THE HELL
stfu
Yeah... he said that in the first 6 minutes.
saints row 2 is better then gta 5
well i meant map wise sorry
Well Saints Row 2 has some of its perk and so does GTA V.
well in saints row 2 you can go in almost every building so alot of exploring
Jake Blaker No, its about almost the same amount of buildings you can go in.
noooooooooooooope
the AI in this game is some of the worst I've ever seen
that makes it all the better
Play Skyrim.
I have its much better. Not great but compared to this pile of shit its fantastic.
@@vaasmontenegro7582 at least they actually do shit different 😂like picking up wood or eating saints row 3 npc can’t even do that
I fucking love him, just because he put the dildo ordering thing in, that was hilarious
3:58 21:28 I'm just gonna leave it here
I gotta play SR2 again, i forgot how good it was
Saints Row II is the peak of the series.
SR3 was boring as fuck.
Your a big fat curly headed fuck.
You and your mom are hillbillies, this is a house of learnin doctors!
AydarBMSTU I'd be happy to.
“Drop that Dookie” better then most rap music out today
Saints Row 2022 brought me here
That music video tho
Playing SR3 now - I'm having a blast. No major issues or anything irritating. Maybe AJ wanted SR3 to be SR2 too much.
He's not the only person who was majorly disappointed by it, coming from an ex-fan of the franchise btw.
Yeah, I'm having a great time too. Creating and dressing your own character and then seeing them in all the cutscenes, etc is lots of fun.
Then again, I've never played SR1 or SR2. Maybe SR3 is disappointing compared to those?
zemixerus Play saints row 2 and you'll see how more beautiful that game can be.
zemixerus I guess only the ex-fans have been disappointed by it , saint row The third Is the only saint row game I've played and I had a blast playing it
It seems that SR3 is an entirely different game than 2 and 1, so it's understandable why fans from those games would feel alienated as the direction of the franchise took a 180 into a very zany crime sandbox.
But as someone who played SR 3 first, it definitely feels much more enjoyable than the other games.
From being a phycopath to this, its a lot better than the reboot at least, it didnt get the company shut down
Drop that Dookay needs to be on iTunes!!
For anybody who happens to stumble upon this video so many years later, the Decker ninja girls, just sprint at them and hit R3
😂 I just got to that part, and I immediately looked for this! 🤣
I understand 2's hyper fans being pissed, but Saints Row 3 is gold! I have found memories of 2, but I'm still playing 3 and *LOVING IT!*
(Also, did you know the you can avoid the QTE melee by rolling up beside an opponent? I'm currently enjoying 3 as one of the greatest souls like melee combat games; only against firearms, supermutants, and vehicles, but I see people rag on the system *A LOT.* Am I the only person who realized this early on, and I just had a completely unique experience?)
I know its old already, but just thought I'd note.. Joe said "I've waisted so much ammunition on this" @ 15:30. yet has infinite ammo 😂
He don't pay attention does he lol.
I wonder how that guy is doing on the phone right now, wonder if he even seen this video
Anyone here after the Saints Row Reboot trailer?
Saints Row The Third had so much character, I just wish the city looked more interesting with more to experience like bars and such. It's just a charming game, despite how depraved it is haha I love it!
Just finally got the chance to play Saints Row 3 and it is such a masterpiece, also holy, Joe was skinny.
garbage compared to what came before
The problem with the Saints Row series as a whole is that they keep dropping great features from the previous title that were amazing, while adding some whatever stuff.
1:32 saints row 2 cover with saints row 3 as the title card
Joe remember in saints row 2 you had to play the side mission to get your rep up to get to play the story which was bs
Saints row 1&2 were great in my opinion and to be honest I had a lot of fun with sr3 and at the time I didn't notice that the series was becoming more over the top but now I have realised that the original story line for the series went from gangs fighting over territory to what it is today and I never had thought saints row as a GTA clone its probably because sr1 and GTA S.A came out very near each other but I loved the original,the 2nd and the new style of games we have today
this might be dumb question, but did he mean to put a saints row 2 cover in the beginning?
probably, cause he gave it a note, so im not sure
No he clearly stated he was comparing it with SR3...
Im here!. Anyone else 2019?
"You fuckin owe me" XD
Ah Saints Row The Third. Still a game I enjoy.
My dream game would be the shooting mechanics of The Third with the storyline quality of 2.
I agree 👍 It would've been cool if Volition kept the original gang concept for SR3
Why don't we all play saints row the third together?
@@easywin3369 we do except me because I have too many mods installed and I'm constantly changing them 🙃
Came directly from AJS news...
This just showed up for me
@@thebluehood2756 Google is in your head now, there's no escape... Ever
Legit the trailer just came out
Saints row the Third review made three years ago half life 3 confirmed
Shut up
+NotOnlyAntons has 3 O's illuminati comfirmed!
Oh god forgive me
if only he knew how bad things would be
Here cause Joe ain’t rip saint row 5 yet Lmao
drop drop that do gay
The SR2 cover popping up at the start instead of the SR3 one messed with my mind lol
There's a song in this game that's not listed on the official soundtrack. The artist's name is something like "Dizazta Muzik," or something of the sort. Does anyone know what it's called?
i still play saints row 2 till this day and they should remake that!
Is it still runs bad on PC ?
@@Kiwing4lyfe I think it runs good
The beginning was all one needs to know what you're in for when playing SR3.
Saints Row 2 shits on all of the Grand Theft Auto games in my opinion.
it was better than LAST GEN gta 5 to me
Yeah, man.
Much as I love the GTA series (and I am a HUGE GTA fan), I love Saints Row 2, it's just so much fun.
yea for sure
Whats so dumb about it? Momspaghetti and vhihjhjlk
DeMario Burns damn you speak true words of wisdom
What? SR3 is awesome :D
Yes it is an awesome game,with good graphics...but Saints Row 2 was better,not with graphics but with the environment and story.
No its not in my opinion its a major dissapointment and was my most hyped game of 2011
Goose BRG
i like three too
A major downgrade from two so its dissapointing
***** He didn't liked Saints Row: The Third because while it was kinda fun(notice the 'kinda' part), it didn't had a good writing like the second one, and while second one balanced out the crazy-ness and the seriousness, The Third is like a storm of crazy-ness, and like he said, it doesn't even have a good writing, so he didn't enjoyed the game all that much.
Watch_Dogs, while he didn't liked the story, graphics, etc, he enjoyed the game a lot more the Saints Row: The Third. The gameplay was so great that it was enough for Joe to give it a 7/10 rating.
Also, why does someone having a different opinion then you equals being paid off? Are you serious?
I've arrived from the future...
Angry Joe videos. You, sir, have been improved since 2009 (2011 vid, I know, but it's the same in my books), and congrats on that.
You’re not gonna like the new Saints Row game 😂
12 yrs ago?! 😮
Saints Row 2 was more fun than Saints Row The Third
Hey Joe. Remember that time when we didn't believe you when you said there was going to be a Saints Row 4. Damn, maybe you should say there is going to be an Elders Scrolls Vl.
By the way, hilarious review Joe. Keep doing what your doing. We all love it.
Gamer Wolf there is going to be an elder scrolls 6
Dream came true!
@@varunkaushik2834 Its probably going to be dogshit, but it's happening.
@@josgretf2800 the direction Bethesda is going in I wouldn't be surprised.
@@BooBooDaFoo330 With all the controversy, the actual game was the least worst thing they did with Fallout 76. Bags, bottles, bans, and broken promises about ptw.
Who's here after Saints Row reboot?
No dude literally the reason I was so addicted to this game was because of the character I accidentally made through fucking around and making some odd character, and I made and orange and black variant of Harley Quinn and making her in every game was literally SO much fun.
It gets borin quick widda lifeless world and bullet spongy enemies
@@AliBazz exactly dude, and the mandatory side missions suck dick, but the custom character was my only motivation.
Man, good times good times. This franchise will never see another good game like this.
I can't wait for you to cover the saints row reboot if you decide to man, it looks so disappointing.
What is the name of the video on the background?
17:39
That's not tank mayhem, it's the story missions "Learning Computer"!
>nerd rage intensifies
2020 still vibin to drop DAT dookie
"Don't ever use lag as a game mechanic"
Unless you're Call of Duty.
someone tell me what to get saints row 3/2 or yakuza 0??
It would've been much cooler if u could control the lag like use it to teleport instead of it just sending u anywhere
Saints row 2 had such a good story, one of the most engrossing stories i think i have ever played in a game. Once i got an hour in that was in, i completely the whole thing in more less one dedicated weekend
Hey Joe did you know the made saints row 3 remastered
lol a 6/10? wait until you try out the saints row 2022.
also what I missed in SR3 from SR2 is that u cant do strong attacks like superkicks
I can't say I disagree. While I do think the game is still fun if you're a hardcore SR fan like me, it does have some annoyances which will bug different people for different reasons.
My personal ones:
1.) The cribs are all the same on the inside. In Saint's Row 2, your safe houses could be customized down to individual furniture. In SR3, they're all the same on the inside with the exception of your Downtown Penthouse. They all look awesome on the outside and you can make them bigger and more opulent, but on the inside they're all still the same and you cannot change anything.
2.) The weapons system was screwed to Hell. What were previously core items in my loadout in Saint's Row 2 are now grouped into the same weapon class for no reason, so I can't equip them all and so I find myself unprepared for certain situations because I don't know what is coming next. So I just pick something different before every mission based on what I know about it before going into it and hope I'm ready. But 9/10 I went in and I was like, "Yeah that sniper rifle would've been helpful; maybe an airstrike."
3.) The customization gave us more and yet fewer options. Whereas before I could customize every individual piece of clothing - vests, coats, ties, shoes, socks, etc. - with patterns and colors and what have you, I'm now locked into these premade "upper" and "lower" body things. So I feel I've lost a lot of customization options, while I do like what we've been given. I suppose for the price of customizing every little piece we get a wider variety of bases and presets we can't change. Also no socks, which can sometimes ruin outfits where your legs are still showing because the shoes are made for a specific pair of shoes. Kind of lazy and restrictive, that.
4.) The rush to make the game linear has diluted some of the original game's best features, like making taking territory pretty pointless just for getting an edge. When I first played SR2 I instinctively went around buying up all the property, making the money to do so through activities but also through robbing stores I didn't own yet and using my revenue to just keep investing in real estate and growing. I did this because the only game I'd ever played that did this was the Godfather video game (the second one sucked, the first one was great) and in that game there were serious benefits to getting all the rackets and businesses. Not only would you have more money than you knew what to do with, but your guys would patrol the streets and if you ever got in a tight spot you always knew were to go if you needed backup or if someone tried starting something with you, backup was right there. Personally in games like this I'd like to see gangs retreat rather than just keep pushing non-stop against an insurmountable defense. Anyway, in SR2 if you had all the territory, because the game world was not instanced all your guys would still be walking the streets during missions. If you ever got in trouble or in a chase, your boys would show up and help you out - even during supposedly "cinematic" moments I saw them show up and even the odds drastically. I remember one escort mission I did where my gang members almost took care of the enemy totally on their own - and I played on Hardcore in all the SR games. It felt like taking territory and expanding your gang's influence really meant something. In this game? All the missions are instanced, so my guys aren't usually there to help me unless the game puts them there. This was definitely infuriating as it felt like all my hard work basically conquering the streets of Steelport was meaningless except in giving me more cash. What's even worse is now activities are tied to region control, which makes little sense to me. On top of there being less stores and I have to drive farther for things, it makes these odd pockets of no control. It was infuriating and bothersome. I guess it's good because now I have gangs I can still go slap around until I'm ready to do the side missions, and I did really want the gangs to be around by the end of SR2 when I got all the military-grade kit because I wanted to slaughter them, but still. This is something that bugs me as what I got a lot of joy from in SR2 was growing my holdings.
I have some personal gripes related to thinks I would've liked to see - like giving the Saints more Paramilitary options in their customization and such. I always liked playing the Saints as my own private army. It's good that we have the Guardsman and Cop options now or I would be more upset. I practically mangasmed when I got the Bodyguard skins in SR2.
Great game? Nah.
Good game? If you're a hardcore fan of the franchise and just want some more context for SR4, sure.
if only we knew the dumpster fire the reboot would be, This game is better than expected
in 2019 i'm here watching this video and thinking daaamnn boiii you was young here Joe haha
My main problem with third is activities. In SR2 you could choose witch one you wanna do. For example - I love insurance fraud and hate mayhem. So I'm able to choose wich filler will be between the main missions.
"just stick it in your ass and return it, get your money back". That guy on the phone should fully write for this franchise lol
Honestly playing Saints row 2 and 3 were the most fun times I had over the last decade
You forgot to mention that steelport is a boring city, as compared to stilwater. Yeah SR2 is incredible. Btw in sr3 I think the graphics are better because I have the PC version.
Years later . ''Drop That Dookie'' still stuck in my head xD
Now only if AngryJoe could go back in time!
