HHW Gaming Review: ‘Saints Row’ Is A Reboot That Fails To Make A Good Impression
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Volition Games / Saints Row After playing four hours of Saints Row during a preview session, optimism was very high about Volition Studios’ big reboot of the franchise. After getting our hands on the entire game, the optimism quickly waned, but it wasn’t an entirely terrible experience. As a video game franchise, Saints Row is in an interesting space. The game was stuck in limbo following 2015’s lackluster Gat Out Hell, leaving a bad taste in the mouths of fans of Saints Row.

Hip-Hop Wired Gaming’s Bernard Beanz Smalls saw roughly 50 minutes of gameplay from the highly anticipated reboot during a hands-off virtual preview. Related Stories Before we got to the action, we got a rundown of the game’s story with a more millennial spin. In the Saints Row reboot, the 3rd Street Saints is in its infancy. The crew features members of rival gangs led by The Boss, who become roommates and resort to crime to make ends meet.

HHW Gaming: Volition Reveals How Customization Plays A Big Role In ‘Saints Row’
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Volition Games / Saints Row Saints Row is going all-in with the customization for the soft reboot, and it will play a vital role in helping you build your version of the 3rd Street Saints from the ground up. Wednesday (Apr.20), Saints Row developer Volition and publisher Deep Silver held a presentation hosted by actress Mica Burton primarily focused on the upcoming game’s deep customization system. Saints Row as a franchise set itself apart from other games in its genre like Grand Theft Auto thanks to its over-the-top action and wackiness, and we are happy to report that will continue to be the case with the new Saints Row. Players will be thrown into the fictional metropolis of Santo Ileso, located in the American Southwest, where the action will take pl...
