Spearsoft has remastered it for modern consoles and added mild visual upgrades including improved lighting and a general graphic cleanup, but up close it still looks like a title from 2011. Originally released for the Xbox 360, Playstation 3 and PC, Saints Row: The Third was the third entry in Volition’s third-person open-world action series.
What’s it like revisiting 2011’s Saints Row: The Third nine years later? It’s crude, brash and sometimes offensive, full of dick jokes and ’80s references, and the entire thing feels like a twisted cartoon trying to overload the player’s senses… And yet, there’s still plenty to love and I wouldn’t have it any other way. WTF I would exceed this review’s word limit listing all the WTFs here. The Thompson is available as soon as you enter Steelport.ĭownside: It's easy to bump into the smoke-stacks accidentally.HIGH “Power” by Kanye West is the best superhero theme music. Other benefits: With this method, you can pop on a podcast, and take it easy while still being efficient.
These time values are based on the YouTube player. Helicopter barn-storming Arapice Island: 0:13 to 0:49 is a complete pair of passes, starting and ending at the same point, with the same velocity. Upside: May be the fastest way to earn cash and may be fun to do with two players. I just recently learned about this, so I haven't tested its reproducibility. One commenter commented that it requires two players. Downside: Requires DLC and reproducibility. Sad Panda Skyblazing can be glitched such that a roof-clearing bonus is repeatedly awarded. Recommendation: 2/5, it's not a livelihood, more like a windfall. Nevertheless, if the game throws you a golden bone and you stumble upon a Professor Genki respawn, spawn camping Professor Genki is hands-down the fastest way to make money at $300 000 per kill. Don't believe assertions that Professor Genki spawns at a specific location he only spawns randomly anywhere.
Hours? There's a video series on YouTube whose original premise is finding Professor Genki. Thus, I don't want to bother to crunch its numbers.Įven if I do find such a video again, factoring in the time that it takes to find Professor Genki can be from minutes to hours. It earns respect at the same time as earning cash, but this easily earns lesser cash. This video shows camping Luchadores in an Apache helicopter. Starts at 0:17, earns $5,108 per pass, and returns to the start after two passes at 0:58. This video shows flying a VTOL jet at the air-port. I can't run its numbers well because it speeds up the video for the return pass, but it earns $5,108 per pass and takes a while to make a return pass (longer than another method which earns more per pass, so calculation isn't bothered with). This video shows flying a plane at the air-port. Caveat: Their method is only available close to the end of the game because it requires a vehicle that you may not get, depending on your decision in the story. The barn storm lasts from 2:03 to 2:07, earning $10,216. This video claims $40-80K per minute at the air-port. Restart will take a little over 4 minutes and 20 seconds = 260 seconds. My record, with a partner, for cash is $24,907, in medium SERC. Let's be generous and round: 12K/3 = 4K/minute. This video claims $10,000+ (e.g., $11,913) in three minutes with Professor Genki's Super Ethical Reality Climax. These methods are aside from buying as many properties as possible to earn money over time passively, aside from buying that money DLC, aside from completing the missions that have bigger cash rewards, and certain other things. Source means stuff like which activity or diversion, the difficulty level if it's an activity, or the vehicle and location if it's a barn-storm. I was initially emphasizing the fonts of key aspects of each method, but there are too many, so instead I'll simply tell you what to look out for: source and cash per unit time.
