Saints Row: The Third. More DLC than a cow has moo.

Not many people probably care about this besides Zip and I, but Saints Row: The Third is on its way this year. Let's show some good shit, shall we?!

Here's the CG trailer:

YouTube Video

Thanks to E3 we got a bunch of footage that is pretty awesome. This can't be embedded however, because Gamespot is gay.

So is anybody besides me and a jihadist excited for this? Let's discuss how good it feels to be a gangsta.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Oh god I know. The moment I saw the gameplay footage from E3 I knew I was going to be absolutely in love with this one. Even more than the last, I'm sure. I doubt that the helicopters and jets you could get in 2 even remotely compare to that VTOL with laser beams.

I am honestly just stoked to see how much better the animations and graphics are in the game when compared to the second game. It's clear that taking resources they devoted to competitive multiplayer really has paid off.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

It is nice to see that footage without the camera breaking away, and while being able to hear some of the sound effects and such. Seems like they added in a normal white guy voice for males. I'm sure some people will be pleased with that.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

This was posted on the blog on the website. It's a preview for a preorder bonus that I guess is extended to all preorders.

Welp, can't post the video. Just look at the blog I guess.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

The car with the human face on it was the Gatmobile. The Man-A-Pult has always had the Man-Cat face on it as far as I recall, since I read it's supposed to be for the Professor Genki activity. I did not, however, expect it to be a preorder bonus. I imagine you probably get to use it in game but not unlock it for use outside the activity without the preorder.

I was speaking idiomatically.

That's true. Even the preorder bonuses like the UFO and mini-bike for SR2 were available with cheats.

Also here's this:

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Looks like we got some new gameplay. I think this is the second or first mission, so don't watch if you don't mind minor starting spoilers.

None of my links are broken! Get it together, Arman!

Anyway, because I am obsessed I found some gameplay footage from Gamescom (I think). Not the best quality but it has some footage of a female player (topless), the hover bike, and a Professor Genki mission.

How ya doing, buddy?

IGN has a preview of a mission up called Murderbrawl. This shit looks bonkers. I guess this could be a spoiler if you didn't want to know how a boss fight goes. At least I think it's the boss fight.

Space them out then, bitch. Don't tell me you didn't want to get in on some co-op with me at some point.

Also there's a new blog post with a video talking about the changes to the driving.

I seriously dig the whole weird Tron thing they have going. Those cars and jackets better be available in game.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

It seems likely that they will be, only because Volition seems to be learning from their mistakes. Just like how they finally added in Ronin jackets with the DLC you mentioned. I imagine they'll just put shit like that in from the start this time. One hopes, anyway.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Yeah, I really hope that's not the case. If we're lucky it means they'll just be giving out more clothes/weapons/whatever often as opposed to sticking them in bought mission packs. But knowing how these companies work I wouldn't be surprised if it turned out to be the worst case scenario.

I was speaking idiomatically.

The first Q&A video is out. It has some snippets of new footage and who knows, maybe something you were curious about is answered!.

To those that were worried, I read today that the Cockney accent is returning, and they are adding in a Zombie voice option as well. Jesus christ.

Oh hey, another video. This time for Professor Genki.

Saints Row: The Third | Community Q&A - Part 2

The laughable new Community Q&A is up, including such important questions as "Can you be a girl?" and "Can you buy buildings?"

Not sure what community is asking these questions but it sure isn't the Saints Row one.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I forget where I saw this on the actual Saints Row forums, but someone from Volition confirmed that co-op comes with the game. They didn't say as an online pass or whatnot, but I assume they meant as a regular feature. The other things... I am not quite sure what to think. I'd be a little disturbed if they turned out to be true.

Not enough to make me cancel my preorder like Deni, but certainly enough to worry me a little.

Also that hover-carrier thing looks fucking awesome.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

New trailer out obviously mocking the recent Battlefield and CoD trailers.

Got some new videos here.

First one is someone with a ridiculous character dicking around. Sounds like they put in some sort of Russian accent for female voices. Sweet

Second is a video of someone awful doing Whored Mode

I had not seen those! Oh yeah, I also forgot to mention that the Initiation Station is coming out on the 1st of November. The website has some Volition creations already up. Someone needs to school those mofos on how to make a decent character face.

I was speaking idiomatically.

I did know about that, in fact! I was too busy using it to remember to post that information here. The new character creator is pretty in depth. You can actually make some really decent looking faces with the new art style. Plus, it's nice that females have their own model now.

They did seem to remove SOME things from clothing, though. Like choosing socks, or being able to layer things. Jackets with undershirts are now just whole sets as opposed to two separate items, but otherwise it's a pretty nice improvement. I love the new voices.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Not the 15th yet in America. So fuck you, Arman. Fuck you HARD.

FELIPE NO

I've gotta wait for Amazon to deliver mine. What a buncha jerks.

How ya doing, buddy?

According to my save file I've played 9 hours and am already 44% through the game. Holy shit. I really hope it isn't going to turn out super short and it's only saying that because of my penchant for activities.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
