YUSH!

BTW Greg, what lost it the half mark? Too many QTE's/pop-ups?

(I've already ordered it, but I can't play it until I finish Nanowrimo. Rewarded deadlines are necessary)

I hadn't given this game a second thought - aside from LoveFilming Saints Row 2 and never playing it I hadn't had any involvement with the series.

Muting this review and then watching what stuff there is to get up to, I've realised the error of my ways. I'll definitely be getting this.

Was that some sort of character voice or something? That was really weird and uncomfortable. Kinda detracted from the review.

I guess I see the appeal of the game, but seems like the hollow kinda fun. Like an old game with alotta crazy mods thrown in.

That review was... Different. It didn't really go well, i'm glad the written part comes with these.

That said, i'll be getting it. This only cements my choice :p

Yeah...I'm not sure it would be wise to do that voice again in a review. There was something a little...off...about it.

Yeah, I'm gonna have to say, I didn't like the voice. I don't think it works well.

All in all though, I don't think I'll be getting this game. Not my type.

Whatever, just wash your hands.
The voice thing was a bit weird, I want to hear about the pc version, but I'm assuming because its not mentioned that it doesn't have the problems that saints row 2 had.

Too bad Skyrim left me with too little moolah to get get this one. Great to hear it's still awesome, though.

Love the way this review was done, it actually made me wanna play that game. I probably won't get it though. I don't have a current-gen console and the previous Saints pc port wasn't playable. At all.

Liking the look of the game, and might get it for/after Christmas, but I didn't like this style of reviewing.

This version is not a port, pc version for the third is developed in house.

A reminder: People intentionally trying to sound "gangsta" when they're not is nearly unanimously looked down upon, and is therefore an ineffective way to draw interest to the review. I was done after one minute. Don't care about your review enough to tolerate the voice, don't even feel like muting it and continuing, or reading the text portion either. A person who makes that bad a judgement call probably has nothing meaningful or insightful to say anyway.

I liked that review.

Hate the "gangsta" culture in general... but I liked that video a lot.

Good work.

The PC version wasn't ported this time, it was properly developed for PC. And the PC version comes with its own features, like HUD-free recording for sweet youtube vids and TF2 costumes for your saint.
