File:Is Saints Row 3 Still Great?-2

Saints Row 3 took the Saints Row franchise is a strange new direction. A direction away from the gangsters and serious moments from Saints Row 1 and 2. But now 11 years later, is Saints Row 3 Still Great? (Saints Row 3 Review)

Throughout this Saints Row 3 review we'll examine one of the most controversial games in the series. Ultimately Saints Row 3 is a fun game that doesn't take itself too seriously with over the top moments and big set pieces. But was this complete gear shift really necessary when Saints Row 2 was so good? It's hard not to be dissapointed at the content we've lost in Saints Row 3, and as a huge fan of Saints Row 2 I question why these changes were made.

In this Saints Row 3 review, we'll go in depth on everything from tone, to narrative, to missions and more. And finally at the end of the review, we'll find out if Saints Row 3 is still great.
