I never got into the series, but my best friend loves the Saints Row series, and was ecstatic when I told him this was coming.

I heard the lip syncing is all fucked up, models don’t display emotion, and dark parts of the city are completely black and unplayable

IGN review:

Quote

I do wish Saints Row 3 had more going on in the remaster department. The fresh coat of paint slathered over the top of Steelport honestly isn’t all that attractive. I played on PC, and even on Ultra settings it didn’t really inspire any awe. Yes, you can tell that the car models have been redone, the character models have been touched up, and the daytime lighting is better in general, but it doesn’t look anywhere near as good as something made in 2020 – and a good remaster should at least be plausible as a modern game. Rain looks especially bad, and one area where Saints 3 hasn’t held up well is seeing the same male and female grunts shooting at you hundreds of times.

Quote

If you’re going to deliver a remaster of a game that’s only nine years old, it’s got to look better than this – especially if it’s at the end of a console generation and not up to what the Xbox One X and PS4 Pro are capable of.

The only Saints Row that I played and liked was Saints Row 2.

Saints Row IV is better than both.

But watching that DF vid, I might have to purchase this remaster for PC.

Your best friend or Chad, your alter ego?
