But for nearly a decade now, thereвЂ™s been a war brewing inside my head about the game, too, which is that it derives some of its fun from the weirdest, grossest places. Saints Row: The Third Remastered is utterly preoccupied with forcing you to have fun. I steal cars, hang out with my friends, take selfies with strangers watch 10 minutes of my life disappear after I realize that I can take all of my clothes off and press a button to go streaking do some murder, steal, and brutalize the world in every silly way the gameвЂ™s creative team could come up with. The character creation tool is the work of madness, especially with so much content unlocked from the very beginning. Saints Row: The Third Remastered is a third-person open-world game that looks like Grand Theft Auto but behaves like the digital incarnation of a 12-year-old boyвЂ™s fever dream. Saints Row: The Third is a game utterly preoccupied with making sure that I have fun in seemingly endless ways, and itвЂ™s great as long as I donвЂ™t think too much about what IвЂ™m doing. Acting with impunity and embracing silliness is what makes the game so damn good - despite all the often uncomfortable absurdity that remains the better part of a decade after its original release, recontextualized and almost remixed by everything thatвЂ™s gone on since then.

Kanye is telling me that вЂњno one man should have all that power,вЂќ and heвЂ™d be right in the real world, but having all that power is the whole point in the very fake world of Saints Row: The Third Remastered. Civilians run and scream in terror, rival gang members grab their own human shields, and I chuck the meat puppet soaking up the bullets meant for me into the pool for a posthumous splash of his own. Someone notices the shakedown, so I turn my informant into a human shield just as the bullets start flying.

Also, I want my friends to join in the fun, so I grab a dude and вЂњinterrogateвЂќ the elevator code out of him.

I plan my entrance during a few seconds of free fall, yank the ripcord, and steer my way into the splashiest (GET IT?) landing I can imagine - dead center in the pool. And the in-universe reason you get away with just about everything has very little to do with just winking at the camera. If youвЂ™re going to enjoy it (and I enjoy both), youвЂ™ve got to make peace with the cognitive dissonance constantly poking you in the eye.

ItвЂ™s lowbrow in the same way as pro wrestling. IвЂ™m also an outlaw, but a citizen-approved, internet-famous outlaw, which means I get to do whatever I want in Steelport, the city that stretches out as far as I can see in every direction below me. Neither are my friends in 3rd Street Saints, a gang with fame, merchandise, and PR that would make Disney blush. Guests mingle and dance at a penthouse party, but IвЂ™m not invited.

The technical information is interesting, but IвЂ™m here to party.

The Windows PC version, on the other hand, can run as fast as your system can handle. The only real disappointment comes from the console versions, which are locked at a 30 fps frame rate. If the Remastered version of Saints Row: The Third were released as a brand-new game today, IвЂ™d accept it as such. This is a version of Saints Row: The Third that matches what I remember from the original launch - maybe not immediately visually dazzling but, with this modern restoration, it still holds its own against the competition. It looks, for all of its age, like a modern game with pretty lighting and high-resolution textures. So what does the Remastered treatment give the 9-year-old game? I played on a PC hooked up to my TV, and watched the mayhem explode in 4K at a glorious 60 frames per second. Kanye WestвЂ™s вЂњPowerвЂќ is playing in the background. My buddy Pierce calls me with half of an idea, and the next thing I know IвЂ™m hanging out of a helicopter, dressed like a wizard - big, floppy Gandalf hat black robes fringed with purple stars-and-moons pattern, naturally - giving the side-eye to a rooftop swimming pool atop a skyscraper.
