E3: THQ, breakin’ my heart

Normally I love THQ games but one game is going to be seriously feelin’ my disdain (ewww, gross sentencification).

Saints Row is a 100% GTA rip off. Driving around, stealing cars, killing people…100%. Why would you make a game like this? Because the GTA name currently has a stigma among parents, grandparents, and aunts/uncles who buy it for their hyperactive gun crazy teenage sons, grandsons, nephews (remember that whole hot coffee overhype?).

In anycase, the engine is a whole lot nicer with better graphics and a smoother soundtrack so at least the programmers did a good job.
