Rumor – First Saints Row 3 images show up
It looks as though the first image of Saints Row 3 has appeared over on NeoGAF.

Apparently, this is what the cover of the next Game Informer is going to look like.
It shows Johnny Gat with a gun, shades, a cool suit, and a bottle of bubbly.
Go have a look, and make it quick in case THQ gets busy with the lawyers.
A second image turned up after the fact, pasted in full glory below.
Saints Row 3 is slated for this fall, and may be related to a “big announcement” coming from THQ during the second week in March.
Thanks, Aha.

I really REALLY hope they haven’t changed the direction of the series. Leave “realistic” to the likes of GTA4 and bring back the fun accents for main characters along with shit spraying missions or there will be consequences!

Love the pic and the subsequent poster.

@1 I remember them saying something along the lines of “Saints Row 3 will be even less like GTA” quite a while back so I think any chance of realism can be ruled out. I just hope they don’t ruin it by trying to be *too* different.

Likely a day one purchase, it may not have much depth… But neither does Mario, all boils down to fun

@4 He’s not gay, he’s asian. Have you never seen an asian guy? They all look like that.
And they all ride gay cars like Nizzan Zs. It’s an ethnic thing.

Maybe he’s talking about the Purple & the fleur-de-lis symbol.
Personally I think a hot chick in tight clothing is everything but gay, but whatever floats your boat.

Well…i am not gonna lie, i am kinda curious about how its gonna look and what will be new, but i’m not the biggest SR fan. For some reason it just never did me anything really.

Very interesting… Johnny Gat, a girl – looks like she is the main character, who’s fully customizable, a jet and it looks like there is a new city… Full-scale Saints invasion to a new city?

Really can’t wait for this game, I spent probably a good 50+ hours on the first one, and probably close to that on the first too…since you can waste hours just stealing cars and customizing them…I hope the graphics are just a tad bit better this time and maybe a little more seriousness in the game couldn’t hurt but hey…game is gonna rock either way…

The last thing Saints Row needs is “seriousness”.
In terms of the plots in the last game there were some horrible attempts at eliciting sympathy from the player, and I think the game would’ve been a lot better off without it, even if those scenes did tie into the violent image.
Save the drama, and just stick to nice big explosions and slinging poop imo.
Those who want gritty social realism can pick up GTA IV and go shoot some dart with their cousins or mow the lawn or whatever

I think we definitely need more Porn in videogames. We definitely need more porn everywhere. Also Saint Row is not a person, therefore it can’t be an idiot.
