I started playing the game saints row the third.
I have to say that this is one of the most unique sandbox/freeroam games i have played. all the sandbox/freeroam games have a story that makes you start at the bottom of everything and you progress to the top with missions and finally beat the game. BUT , saints row makes you start at the top with luxury cars , millions of dollars and really AWESOME weapons. This kind of a storyline is very fun to play with and i would like to see other game developers doing the same kind of things.

Pros

You have a lot of money and an hourly city income which allows you to buy weapons and properties very easily.
The missions are very good , just on the second mission you have to jump THROUGH a plane and have a gunfight in the sky, then catch your friend.
The weapons are really good (well some of them are not really good).like the AR drone which is really helpful in missions that involve gangfights.
The overall gameplay is really good too , but there are some flaws which i will be discussing in the cons section

Cons

The storyline is not very long.
The graphics are not very good.
Sometimes you may find yourself stuck in a tree or in someone else
Some of the guns do not work as they should
When you play it for more then half an hour (when you beat the game) you really do not want to continue because there are not much activities in the city

Great review luka! +rep

You have mentioned pretty much every necessity a review has, but here are a few minor things you've missed

That would be:

Game Info
Minimum requirements

The major things would be:

A rating
Formality

Sorry to be an English Nazi here, but I suggest you formalise this review. By that I mean use proper English. Sorry, I do not mean to offend you, I am not saying you have bad English but where you have those capitalised words, un-capitalise them. I know that you really emphasize some points, but that can easily be achieved through without capitalisation.

Take a look at this (Damian's) review for ideas on structure because he has a great review structure

Anyway, keep at it!

It was a good review luka

I agree to what Peter said, also, you should add more info about the game, explain what the game is about, talk about the graphics, sound, gameplay, you can finish with a conclusion and a rate of the game. Also add some pictures and maybe a gameplay video.

well , if u ask me saints row is a bit better because of these two things:
-the car handling and physics is much better. that makes a big difference for me because i love driving in freeroam games

-the fighting moves are really cool and the weapons are cool too

I thought this game was also an Xbox game?

Fairly sure my friend has it >_>

I'm convinced

So there are a variety of moves you can perform rather than just punch, kick, throw to the ground? etc

Loved the game. I must say that i agree the storyline was a bit short but it is an improvement from the last game as you don't have to gather respect before you can do another mission.

PS. jets are fun...
