elmuerte Posted October 10, 2012 yep, Saints Row 3 doesn't really try to make fun of anything. It's like the movies Shoot 'em up and the Expendables series. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
darthbator Posted October 10, 2012 yep, Saints Row 3 doesn't really try to make fun of anything. It's like the movies Shoot 'em up and the Expendables series. I don't think that's necessarily true. There is an entire section in Saints Row where you go into a virtual world and it just throws "cyber"/game tropes at you. There are parodies littered throughout saints row.

Twig Posted October 10, 2012 Saints Row is a parody of Video Games, plain and simple. It's just very, very, very blatant about it, so that it doesn't really feel like a parody, and feels more like it's being insane for the sake of being insane. Well, it probably is doing it for the sake most of the time. But there're definitely plenty of mockery-nods to Video Games in general. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
berniesbc Posted October 15, 2012 Was Patrick ever properly introduced? When I finished listening to this it occurred to me that aside from saying his name, no one explained who the hell he is. I'm a Giant Bomb fan, so I'm very familiar with him, but I could certainly imagine an Idle Thumbs listener who isn't familiar with the guy. On an unrelated note, my left shift key has suddenly started making tildes instead of Capitalizing things. This is pretty upsetting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jake Posted October 15, 2012 I think right after he left we said Thanks Patrick Klepek from Giant Bomb once. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
