Saints Row®: The Third™ Remastered

mehhhh

a bit rush

So Good

The game's great fun and still just as silly as it was back in the day. Very solid.

It has a new coat of paint which is a nice touch, but it's not enough to cover up the age. I got the feeling I was playing a heavily modded Saints Row 3, rather than a proper "remaster".

The new characters often look a lot better and more realistic than they did in the original, but often at the cost of a certain style the original had. The worst of all is the player character, who seems to have not been updated much at all and therefore stands out like a sore thumb in cutscenes.

You'll get the impression they had too much plastic surgery with a face that stiff and off-putting. (But for all you know they might have lol.) The character will look great in the character creator, but as soon as you enter the game, you'll find yourself playing as a nightmare. I suppose if you're looking to play a monstrosity anyway this isn't much of a deal-breaker.

Would recommend playing this game at least once, and if you don't own the original, might as well get this one.
Do be sure to look up the guide to uncap your FPS, or you'll be locked to 56 or something strange like that, even if your PC is a beast.

This game is PEAK.

Tons of bugs and crashes that are still not fixed after release.
Don't buy it - don't know if I can recommend the original, but from what I remember it wasn't that riddled with game breaking bugs as this remaster is.

on some systems the lighting turns into pitch black darkness when you alt tab or change graphic settings. Unplayable when it happens and there is no fix

Damn, I'll miss the Saints Row games...The reboot is soooooooo bad with the new teen gangsters.

Well, you probably know that Saints Row: The Third is one of the best, or the best, from the Saints Row saga. The remastered version isn't different because it's still great! I saw a lot of players talking about crashes, bugs, glitches, etc. Well, in my playthrough, I didn't witness any of those issues. On the contrary, my game flowed very well from the beginning to the end. I've finished the main story and all DLC missions.

This version is sooooo beautiful! The city, the vehicles, the NPCs, the explosion effects, the guns, the graphics, and all the good stuff. The only character that, in my opinion, is not that beautiful is Shaundi. She's a little ugly in the remastered version, but still badass.

Probably, this game had so many issues when it was released, but I'd give it another chance. I dare to say that it is better than the original version.

100000000000/10

Saints Row The Third Kiwami
The gameplay is same but only the Graphic much better than the Original. By the way it also has bug and crash sometimes also I wanted to continue this game but already played the Original one for 66 hours so at least I experienced playing this Remaster game. It was a good remaster and price pretty high.

i love the saints

In the original release most of my time playing Trafficking missions was spent screaming at Pierce to get in the car. In the remake he gets in the car no problem. That alone makes this an 11/10.

game

Classic

This is possibly always be my favorite Saints Row game, arguably better or just as good as GTA... It's not a game for kids, but man it's fun! It's one game on Playstation that I have a platinum trophy for because I love it so much! Then I bought it again, on PC.

NO ONE MAN CAN HAVE ALL THAT POWER

Great game

Stutters on a 4060TI.
The game basically has better lighting, the models are a very minor improvement but still look dated.
Refunded.

best game in this franchise!!, can't wait for remastering SR2

Its still a great game but WHAT THE FUCK! They cant add a fucking autosave feature in with the remaster? I was dealing with a small bug and went and reset the game and lost so much progress.

Shitty ass buggy game tbh

good enough to grab on sale. co-op has issues with syncing notoriety, not being able to lose the cops or other gangs for no reason gets really annoying.

picked up the original SR3 loved it. So decided to get this when on sale. Yes the graphics have been improved. an option to replay missions when completed. BUT yes there are crashes. The main for me is in the garage in the first crib when I redesign a car, auto crash. No chance of a fix I assume. But still love to go around the city cause a riot, or just sometimes chill in the city. I own a copy for PS5, PC, and Switch. All picked up on sale.

The remastered is ok its no "wow", but made me play the game twice hehe. Some of the characters look very different from the none remastered, not sure if I like them but they look ok. The world looks a lot more better though, better night light, reflections or the sun light colors of the sunset. The game is still very casual friendly, relaxing, funny or fun. Nothing much has changed except graphics I guess. Still very worth it, especially on sale.

Unfortunately this seems more like a messy cashgrab than a remastered edition.

Seriously, wtf is even a remaster these days? Just higher scale texture dump and that's it? Lazy ass shit.

They could've at least fixed some bugs. At the very least fix the order in which you get mission rewards, which are somehow unlocked long before you get the notice that you've unlocked them. But nope, just this lazy shit.

If you got the original, don't bother wasting a cent on this crap, not even when it's on sale.
You could just slap some higher scale textures on that yourself with a mod or something.

insane

middle of the story sucks

Casual girlfriend carnage, yes!

It's a modern version of Saints Row 3 on PC, except smoother, with this edition compromising on removing stutter for some graphical options I found to be ... let's say, true to the nostalgia of the original. Basically, to get that "ah yea, SR3" visual, you're looking at setting all graphics low, no DOF, no volumetric, anisotropic filter set to 8, etc. Otherwise, by default, ultra running, I guess you could say it looks good; to me it looked like the Xbox 360 version, with washed out graphics (Thanks, TAA). I don't like the exchange of performance for drops from the max FPS I mention later, so if you're about "speed" like I am, I recommend turning that stuff off.

SIDE NOTE: while I found that you can visually get close to where the original was, the game really does not like when you start playing with custom settings. I recently discovered that textures for incoming cars would pop in as black blocks; interestingly, loading a preset achieves that vsync off mixed graphics compromise in the game. But you can regularly reach well over 100FPS just by playing with the settings.

The original will let you perform up to 130FPS but will frequently stutter, which I think the cap for this version is about 125.

While performance is smooth, the game never fails to crash on exit. It's apparently documented on protondb. Also, the controls feel a little bit looser on this version than the original. but they work consistently.

Overall, if you want to play Xbox 360 games with a fresher coat of paint, but the option to peel back to the original, game plays well.

To call this game remastered is a straight up joke, half of the assassination jobs are so glitched to the point you can't even complete them, my first two hours of gameplay i never had audio from any vehicle engine (this later fixed itself) I grew up with these games and it just hurts to see how incompetent these devs have become.

LITERALLY childhood favorite ong ong

it good

Not a sixty dollar remaster of a game with a working original version.

One of the best games made .

i loved saints row the third
this has its fair share of old bugs, stuff that was already patched out in the non-remaster but
the character creator gets its glorious return in HD, very awesome

lots of huge tits and cocks

What can I say about this remaster? It seems like it’s also a game with the same mechanics and plot, but you understand that in the remaster the sound is very different from the entire game component. I’m not saying anything bad, I’m just talking about a problem that I personally encountered myself. the remaster is not bad, it's still good old Saints Row The Third Remastered

its ok
