    Loved it the first time around. The remaster however is more glitchy than the original and the gun play remains sloppy.
    Bought it mainly for the trophies, but those are bugged too. Best to wait til this game is fixed and / or really cheap.

    Saints Row 3mastered is what a remaster should be in terms of bringing back the fun mayhem that its known for. The biggest flaw of all in this remaster is that 30fps lock like really Spearsoft?

    The gameplay is decent, but considering they made several chances to point out that the gameplay isn't changed at all from the 2011's release, you can't judge the game by that. However, several things that did get changed are a mess. Characters have botched lipsync, character creation is bugged, lighting in the cutscenes is terrible on female characters, generally all female characterThe gameplay is decent, but considering they made several chances to point out that the gameplay isn't changed at all from the 2011's release, you can't judge the game by that.

    I love saints row, i love this game, the new visuals are amazing. But this game is an absolute glitch fest, multiple missions and activities are making me reset the game multiple times and it's extremely frustrating. getting this game platinum is hell with the amount of times I've had to restart the game because a mission or activity glitched out.

    Just genius! Take everything away from GTA that's boring and tedious, double down on everything that's fun and make it more accessible, and then mix it with great humor and slapstick.

It gives you freedom, it's funny, great gameplay (the weapons alone are so cool), even the animations are not all that bad. In addition to that it is PS4 Pro enhanced, so in contrary to GTA5 at this console it looks like a modern optimized game from 2018 or 19. Not Triple A, but still up to date.… Expand

    I only played the original for 1 hour(on STeam) a few years ago.
    I dunno why i didn't play it last console gen..
    Guess i thought it was stupid... BUt it never left my wishlist & thoughts.. **I CAN NOT BELIEVE EVEN A REMASTER OF AN OLD GAME IS LOCKED AT 30 FPS!!!! FPS is just as important if not more so then graphics.. When there's allHellBreaking Lose on screen you can tell 30 FPS    I only played the original for 1 hour(on STeam) a few years ago.

    LOCKED AT 30 FPS!!!!
    FPS is just as important if not more so then graphics..
    When there's allHellBreaking Lose on screen you can tell 30 FPS from 60FPS..
    Why has gaming technology barely improved in this department since 2000?
    Ar ethey imprving at a snails pace to drain the $$?
    i don't think so because each video card company & processor company wants to be the best.
    Then again it wouldn't surprise me if they have guidlines on what they can release...
    ***How Old is The 1st Crysis game? 15 years ago and that game was amazing in every single way.
    15 years!!! crap has barely improved considering what was 15 years before 2005= 1990.
    ~~LOOK @ The iumprovements from 1990 ~to~ 2005....
    ~Now look at 2005-2020.... something shady has happened & it aint all good....
    im gonna play the Steam Original.. it will atleast look prettier then backwards compatable version from the Xbox360 original Disc which i probably have....    … Expand

    Ah one of my favourite game series gets a remaster out of the blue, and it is fairly impressive. The devs certainly deserve commendation upgrading the graphics and tweaking certain parts of the game. The story is as entertaining as ever. I do have some minor gripes though.

    - would have liked an option to play with original graphics with locked 60fps
    - graphics don't quite reach 60 fps in uncapped mode. But I'm hoping the update on next gen is where its at.
    - Some Enemies are still a tad too bullet spongey.

    I am happy they did this remaster, I hope they do a saints row 2 remake and also hope the franchise continues to succeed with Saints 5!    … Expand

    The game is definitely worth checking out if you enjoyed the original game. Improved graphics and effects take your gaming experience to the next level.

    Is this game deep? No... Is this game changing the industry? No... This game is just fun and complete nonsense from start to finish and I would play it over and over again.

    Pues en si la experiencia deja mucho que desear si vemos el exitazo que fue Saint's Row 2

    Pero no te pierdes nada si lo juegas una o dos veces, es muy divertido.

    This is a very interesting remaster. The map, and the indoor locations, have absolutely masses of high detail added to them, which makes the re-exploration of Steelport a absolute blast for the fans of the original game. And, at certain hours of the day, and when it rains, Steelport can look almost gorgeous.
    But, on the minus side, the vehicle handling and physics are still just as bad as    This is a very interesting remaster.

    But, on the minus side, the vehicle handling and physics are still just as bad as they were in the original, and they have not polished away any of the other gameplay irks either. And, there are times when the game does look very basic and last gen, as they have not polished quite everything on the visual side.
    So, a bit of a mixed bag. I recommend the game to the fans of the original, as they will love it. The rest might be better off with Cyberpunk or the excellent Saints Row IV.    … Expand

    Saints Row: The Third Remastered, continues to entertain us as much as it did a decade ago. A title that is far from being monotonous and boring. On the other hand, the game maintains its essence and arguments intact with graphic and visual touches according to the time.

    A lovingly remastered, nostalgic treat for fans, with all the cars and guns given extra polish. A robust GTA clone that should please anyone else who doesn’t mind a bit of gleefully juvenile silliness. [Issue#177, p.154]
