I just love to write about game announcements, especially when they are about a Saints Row sequel. The beloved THQ franchise, Sains Row, has always been a bit rough around the edges and is perceived as a ‘comical’ GTA derivative, is receiving a third game.
In other words, people love to have fun in the open world that is Saints Row. The Third is the title of this year’s entry which is slated for a Fall/Holiday 2011 release. Game Informer has the reveal cover story in their latest magazine which should ship to subscribers soon.
The Third will take place in a new city a few years after the events of Saints Row 2 and man, do I hope this cover picture means we will be able to use airplanes.
“Saints Row: The Third puts you on top of the world, right at the beginning of the game, with all the perks that go along with being the head of an elite criminal organization,” said Danny Bilson, THQ Executive Vice President, Core Games. “There’s no delivering pizza, no shuttling family members about in a long series of taxi missions. Instead, you take all the power of the Third Street Saints and you take the world by storm.”
