Details of story, which see our ‘hero’ return, are talked about as well as customisable weapons and there being no multiplayer, but co-op is in.
There’s a tonnage of game details over at - where else? - NeoGAF forums, with juicy tidbits like waving goodbye to Stillwater altogether and arriving in a whole new city. Our hero can be even more customised with a levelling system introduced.
Weapons can be upgraded and we don’t need to worry about losing them as they permanently stay available in our weapons cache. There’s no more eating, drinking or drug use apparently by the player.
We’ll face off against three gangs: the brutish Morning Star, the nerdish Deckers and a Government funded unit called STAG (special tactical anti-gang). There are different ways to accomplish missions, such as either blowing up or ‘conquering’ a skyscraper.
Gang respect now works as more traditional experience in that you spend points to raise character attributes. such as weapon accuracy, damage or sprint etc. Gangs are better customisable too from cars to the gear they wear.
Saints Row: The Third releases on Xbox 360, PS3 and PC this holiday. For more check out the NeoGAF thread, unless you want to remain in the dark and spoiler free?
