    I just picked this up on sale for 280 points and am I mad at myself!I let the reviews get the best of me and thought it wasn't going to be good.For the asking price of 560 points it's a steal.It's pure fun that will make you laugh from the start of the mission just like the whole game did.If you look at it like that, then there is nothing to complain about but if you look at it in theI just picked this up on sale for 280 points and am I mad at myself!I let the reviews get the best of me and thought it wasn't going to be good.For the asking price of 560 points it's a steal.It's pure fun that will make you laugh from the start of the mission just like the whole game did.If you look at it like that, then there is nothing to complain about but if you look at it in the light of how Rockstar's add-on's are full content like getting another game then it is disappointing but I look at this the way it should be looked at.It's really as long as you want it to be,I can play this over and over,still have fun,still laugh, and be confident that I got a great deal.What a ride!… Expand

    When I played GTA (multiple games from the series), with each release I would get bored after a few hours.

    Saints Row: The Third is no such beast. This game is exciting, action packed, hilarious, and overall just... Exhilarating. Yeah one or two challenges are a bit annoying, but that doesn't change the fact that with the fourth game being more Infamous Style Super hero focus, this game    When I played GTA (multiple games from the series), with each release I would get bored after a few hours.

    Saints Row: The Third is no such beast. This game is exciting, action packed, hilarious, and overall just... Exhilarating. Yeah one or two challenges are a bit annoying, but that doesn't change the fact that with the fourth game being more Infamous Style Super hero focus, this game is the best GTA style game out there. Counting GTA itself. It's a wonderful little treasure that understands nobody plays GTA to feel bad about killing people. It's to drive over the sidewalk, blow police cars to smithereens, skydive into planes to hijack them and beat mascots to death with giant **** while dressed as their own role-play fantasy gang boss.

    This game is fun. Everything in the game was added to be fun, and not to be frustrating or "realistic". The game couldn't care less about physics, it knows you want to fling your body over that building for insurance fraud and it's more than happy to oblige. It just asks you pause every now and then for a genuinely cool, incredibly badass campaign that lets you ride a wrecking ball down the floors of a business building and crush a rival gang boss before driving home in a giant cat shaped vacuum cleaner.

    Get these Saints some money.    … Expand

    A handful of nicely insane activities. [Apr 2012, p.85]

    From the moment the Monday Night Football theme song kicks off, you know you're going to love the new Genkibowl VII DLC for Saint's Row: The Third. It continues the mayhem and utter amazing stupidity of the core game in a short burst of activities and new gear.

    The cost of Genkibowl VII isn't worth the quantity of gameplay you get for your money, and the quality of the gameplay isn't good enough to justify committing to a Season Pass at this point. I had a lot of fun with Saints Row: The Third, I expected more out of Professor Genki.
