Saints Row 3 getting pre-launch character creator
by Steve Watts, May 06, 2011 1:00pm PDTSaints Row 3 -- excuse me, Saints Row: The Third -- will let you toy with its character creator before the game hits this holiday season. Publisher THQ and developer Volition announced the Saints Row Initiation Station, to be released on the PC, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360.
With the Initiation Station, you can create your best fashion disaster and share it with friends. Plus, you can download other peoples' characters and tweak them, or collaborate on a co-op set. THQ was about as vague as vague can be on a release window for the Initiation Station, so just expect it sometime before Saints Row hits.
If you pre-order Red Faction: Armageddon, you'll get early access to the character creator before it hits the rest of the unwashed masses. Current pre-orders count as well, so if you happen to be a fan of ridiculous outfits and wanton property damage: score.

GTAIV was more about graphics whereas Saints Row was more about having fun. I'll take fun over graphics any day. Like playing Gunz: The Duel, TF2, Borderlands, Quake 2, and then some. I COULD care less if Borderlands had a unique art style, but it was a BADASS game. SR2's graphics weren't all that nice (but the textures were pretty good) compared to GTAIV but who needs a sandbox with 100% realistic dolls?
