    Played the game already multiple times and it's a blast, no issues with the actual game I give it 9. Different story on the Switch however, smooth performance is the foundation to any successful game and this port is all over the place. Was it too much to expect 60fps from a 2011 game? Can't even hold 30fps properly in its current state, that is pathetic!

    Que alguien me diga por favor que es lo que han actualizado del juego para dar esas supuestas mejoras.....no hablo en modo portatil que en ese caso (chapó). Pero en modo dock, no os da verguenza presentar eso? Mi portátil de hace 8 años es capaz de mover mejores texturas, sombras y ratios de frames . Y estoy convencido de que la switch puede mas que mi portatil, muy convencido.

    You know what, it’s a real damn shame about the Switch port of Saint’s Row 3 because it could have been possibly one of the best ported titles but it’s ruined by input lag and that dumb little aim acceleration that they somehow don’t allow you to turn off (same goes for auto aim)

    RESPONSIVE controls are very important. Part of being able to enjoy a game is being able to control things smoothly in a way that doesn’t feel like I’m constantly trying to thread a needle. Which isn’t too hard, but granted it’s still not easy (or fun, for that matter).

    Don't get me wrong. The game IS playable, but issues with sprinting, soft-locking in the menus, and as I've mentioned the input lag/aim acceleration do not make this enjoyable for me. I've played Saints Row 3 on 3 platforms so far and even compared to the xbox 360 versions, this port has to be on the lower rankings of which port is best.    … Expand

    For the time being, i can't recommend this game for the switch.

    Reasons being even a week after release and apparently having a day one patch delayed but arrived, it still suffers from : 1: framerate issues tanking whenever there's action 2: joycons and especially pro controller suffers heavy input delay making it really hard to aim 3: no motion controller support to make    For the time being, i can't recommend this game for the switch.

    Un juego que, si bien parte de una version original que la critica deja muy bien, la realidad es que la version de switch es bastante vergonzosa. La clave en todo juego es que los controles respondan a las acciones que desea realizar el usuario,y la verdad es que el control en este juego deja mucho que desear. Otras criticas comentan que a raíz de la instalacion del parche todo mejora, laUn juego que, si bien parte de una version original que la critica deja muy bien, la realidad es que la version de switch es bastante vergonzosa.

Otras criticas comentan que a raíz de la instalacion del parche todo mejora, la verdad esque aún así el control sigue siendo muy malo, y ello lleva a que el juego tenga una dificulta desmesurada en ciertas misiones, que me ha llevado a avandonarlo porque estoy harto de repetir y repetir las mismas misiones una y otra vez, incluso habiendo bajado el nivel de dificulta de lo mas fácil posibles. Es una pena que un juego de este estilo, con el gran potencial que tiene, haya sido portado tan probremente.… Expand

    Saints Row: The Third - The Full Package is a real madness that comes to offer fun in abundance for Switch users. A very complete sandbox although with a technical section that can be improved. However, its great amount of hours of fun, its sense of humor and its good sound section make it a remarkable title.

    This is a port only really worth picking up if you missed it the first time, but even then the iffy controls (sprint is the left bumper and the menu wheel is on A, for some reason best known only to Hell’s most prolific torturers) and shocking performance issues will leave you wondering what all the fuss was about. 8 years after its original release t’s still irreverent fun, though certainly hampered by iffy shooting and iffier driving, but Saints Row has always been one of those series that kind of gets a free pass because it’s so endearingly nuts.

    Saints Row: The Third is now on Switch for better or worse. The game hasn't aged well, but is still fun to play. Just don't play it docked, because this is a open world game meant to be played on the go.
