The Saints’ Turf Includes the Grid, Apparently
I just started playing Saints Row 2 this weekend. I enjoy it a lot — the description I’ve always heard, “Grand Theft Auto but fun” is exceedingly apt — even if I’m not obsessing over it like I did Dragon Age (OCD papa needs his leveling up and grinding). But that might change with Saints Row the Third, thanks to this new trailer:
MOTHERFUCKING TRON IN MY MOTHERFUCKING SAINTS ROW. Goddammit that’s so pertinent to my interests it’s not even funny. Fuck killing the Deckers, I want to join them. Or at least wear their awesome/ridiculous Tron outfits. Say, does anyone know where I can sell $60 worth of plasma between now and November 15th? Infinite thanks to Justin F. for the tip.
