<p>Come on now people, after <a href="http://www.gta-sanandreas.com/" target="_blank">San Andreas</a> the <a href="http://www.rockstargames.com/grandtheftauto/" target="_blank">GTA series</a> has been missing an important element all video games should have: fun (maybe not Chinatown Wars). They have been one boring slog after another, not to mention the monotone graphics and anal controls they shared too. Fortunately there is another option for the fans of outrageous, open-world, crime games out there and that’s <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saints_Row_%28series%29" target="_blank">Saint’s Row</a>. I’m as pleased as punch to proclaim that a 3<sup>rd</sup> game (called <a href="http://www.saintsrow.com/" target="_blank">Saint’s Row: the Third natch</a>) was announced was at E3 and will be making our holidays a little more jolly this year. Just when you think the 3<sup>rd</sup> Street Saints could sit back and enjoy their criminal empire of Stillwater after what they dealt which in the last two games; here comes the Syndicate to (and did apparently) usurp their power and the city. Banished to Steelport, the Saints must rebuild and regain all they lost and if that means going to open war with the Syndicate, robbing banks, stealing cars, pimping out headquarters, preform illegal street races, accomplish impossible stunts, make time with all the shorties, and become an urban legend in our own time – then so be it.</p>

<p>Here’s your clue: Computers don’t work without microchips, sandwiches don’t without mayo, what’s needed for old thyme clocks and the <a href="http://gearsofwar.wikia.com/wiki/Coalition_of_Ordered_Governments" target="_blank">Coalition of Ordered Governments</a> for them to work?</p>
