I remember when "GTA clone" was a type of game that some studios went after, with varying success. Saints Row did a great job at having that which GTA 4 lacked: fun over realism. SR3, the non remastered version, still holds up incredibly well. Being so balls to the wall and over the top was a great choice

I actually have SR3 on GOG! I must get around to play it someday...

The opening mission sets the tone incredibly well. If that kind of humor doesn't suit you, you probably wont enjoy the rest of the game. Otherwise, turn the brain off and nod along for a good time
