Enter the Dominatrix picks up immediately after the events of the original game.
For centuries, alien warlord Zinyak has been watching the earth with plans to harvest its natural resources and women.
The only thing standing in his way are the Third Street Saints.
Zinyak captures you and places you in a virtual reconstruction of Steelport, which looks and feels exactly like the real thing.
Found a deal on this and I've been wanting a city-based game for a while. This has totally done it for me. I love the gradual expansion, how much there is to do, and it's pretty funny. Goofy and stupid, but it's a lot of fun. It's basically all the fun parts of GTA without the boring parts. Surprised you beat it in 15 hours though, D. I've probably put in 10 and I've hardly touched the story.
I got this a few days ago and I actually like it better than GTA 4. The story is better, the action is better and the driving is better. The cars in GTA 4 handle like crap and make driving very unpleasant, SR3 has a much better arcade feel to the cars.Yeah, it's wacky but focuses on the fun factor a lot more than GTA does. Having 2-player online co-op doesn't hurt either!
Yeah, this is everything that's fun about GTA without any of the downtime, plus an absurd sense of humor that thankfully permeates the entire game, including the main story, and the game also has a far, far better sense of progression between taking over the city and the fact that you can upgrade practically every fucking usable element in one way or another.Agreed.
I'm honestly amazed, and this has completely changed my opinion of this franchise. I used to think it looked like a stupid knockoff for thugs... but this game is a masterpiece.I really liked SR2, despite its problems on the PC (performance issues, DLC was never released here on the PC).
After all of the "Strap it on" promotional messaging for Saints Row: The Third, I'm almost numb to the name of this upcoming retail package, but it's nice to see them stick with it. Essentially, it's another one of those Game of the Year editions, due out November 6, 2012 for PlayStation 3, PC, and Xbox 360.
For $49.99, this includes the core game itself, Genkibowl VII, Gangstas In Space, The Trouble With Clones, and 30-some DLC items. Hardly a bad deal, but I don't remember hearing a whole lot of praise for the add-ons. Either way, The Third is a hell of a good time and worth playing any way you can.
