Feel free to discuss any aspect of the games you want. 6) Grand Theft Auto - User Rating 8.1 (image credits: metacritic) The original game that announced DMA Designs (now Rockstar) arrival on the big stage and brought GTA to the masses was an. It’s the balance between the mayhem and the more mundane that makes Saints Row 2 the little bowl of porridge in the franchise: just right.This reddit community is dedicated to the Grand Theft Auto games. Insurance Fraud makes a welcome return, as well as Trail Blazing, where the player dons a flame-proof set and rides a flaming vehicle through checkpoints, setting everything in their path alight. In terms of gameplay, Saints Row 2 still cops from GTA (specifically GTA IV) in good measure, but where GTA as a series was actively striving to present itself as mature, Saints Row 2 leaned into its juvenile side with side activities like the Septic Avenger, in which you ride shotgun in a septic truck and spew raw sewage on mansions, civilians and police cars for cash. Narratively, the series has never been stronger, with its tale of the run-down Saints battling their way back up to the top of the food chain providing relatable human struggles and friendships in terms later games never approach. The heart and soul of the Saints Row universe, Saints Row 2 proved the franchise could step out from GTA’s shadow and forge its own identity. Sure, some of its “edgier” elements haven’t aged well and you may want a hot shower afterwards, but there’s no denying that Saints Row: The Third delivers a mean dopamine hit. Whether dropkicking civilians out of their vehicles, slugging baddies in the nethers with a giant purple dildo (just one of the many ridiculous weapons in the game, including a grenade launcher that shoots mind-controlling mollusks) or rampaging through the city in your birthday suit (with a dedicated streaker button!), Saints Row: The Third is a sugar rush in game form, a guilty pleasure mainlined straight into your lizard brain. After a job to rob a bank goes awry, the Saints find themselves in a new setting, the city of Steelport, where they’ve got to start from square one and rebuild their empire.Ī power fantasy with supremely enjoyable mechanics and the intelligence of a 13-year-old high on Flamin’ Hot Cheetos dust and Mountain Dew Game Fuel, Saints Row: The Third is nothing if not a very good time.

Capping off the original trilogy, the Saints have risen from the streets to become a marketing entity with sponsorships and branding. Literally the through-line between the over-the-top superheroics of Saints Row IV and the more grounded approach of Saints Row 2, Saints Row: The Thirdis best remembered for its intro sequence, which has the player skydiving into a penthouse party while Kanye West’s “Power” blasts through the speakers. But any game that stars actor Keith David as himself (and your villainous Vice President) knows what it's about, and for that alone Saints Row IV deserves props. Over the top and loaded with pop culture sendups, Saints Row IV cobbles elements from the aforementioned Crackdown, The Matrix, Mass Effect, Prototype, Metal Gear Solid and many more in a zany, willfully ridiculous brew that while entertaining, can certainly overstay its welcome. How does a gangster acquire superpowers you ask? Oh you know, the usual way - become President of the United States after subverting a terrorist attack, suffer an alien invasion that results in the destruction of the planet, and become trapped in a virtual reality simulation of Steelport, the city from Saints Row: The Third.

Somebody at Volition clearly loved 2007’s Crackdown, Microsoft’s superhero-powered take on sandbox open-world action, because Saints Row IV apes the mechanics, right down to the addictive orb-collecting to upgrade abilities.
