I'm coming, Shaundi and Burt! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) I loved that mission.

Yeah, sometimes I have a moral choice in the decisions in the game, that one... "We can get the bastard later... I couldn't save Johnny, I WILL SAVE THE REST OF MY CREW!"

QUOTE (Critias @ Nov 23 2011, 12:28 PM)  Is there some trick to the "streaking" mini-mission? I've been making progress on several others (driving on two wheels, running over pedestrians, headshots, nutshots, driving the wrong way, etc), but even when I decided to run around butt naked for a while, I didn't receive any time towards that particular goal. Get butt naked, and double-tap the down button (The one you can use to take pictures if you've activated it on your cellphone.). That activates the streaking mini-mission. Just after the time ran out on my first try of it, I found a photo op, so one lucky Saints fan got hisself a damned good photo of my Eastern-European Buxom Musclewoman in her birthday suit and ink!

Its funny, I was fully expecting Johnny to just show up midway thru the game. Just 'SUPRISE COCKBAGS!!' and kill some dudes. And when I got Zombie Johnny... I was a sad sad panda. But then again, there are those upcoming DLC mission things... who knows!?!

Come on man, spoilers. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nyahnyah.gif) Although I'm kicking myself. I heard the Mayor come on a commercial and went, "I know that voice..."
Get to the mayor, *Headdesk* My take was mostly, "I let Johnny down... I AIN'T LOSING ANY MORE OF MY CREW!" Anyhow, we knew Johnny was dead. They had him in a coffin and was getting ready to bury him next to his girl... Before they blew the pimped-out hearse into the ocean. |

I really do not get the whole Johnny Gat issue. But then i basically "crashed" thru the second game, barely paying attention to the storyline...

QUOTE (hobgoblin @ Nov 28 2011, 12:26 AM) I really do not get the whole Johnny Gat issue. But then i basically "crashed" thru the second game, barely paying attention to the storyline... Johnny was the third Saint you meet in the original Saints Row (The first two being Julius, the founder of the gang, and Troy the second in command.).He was the only member of the Saints to not drop his flag when the Saints fell apart between Saints Row 1 and 2, and your main supporter during Saints Row 2. He's the ranking person in the gang, and only doesn't take command because it's not his style (He enjoys putting in work too much to deal with the rest of the BS that The Boss has to.). Considering the superhuman amount of injuries he's been inflicted with and still gotten back up to kick major ass, he was pretty much assumed to be as unkillable as the Protagonist (Playa/Boss). Having him die so early in SR3 is a major WTF moment that says "Almost anyone can die now.". And hurts all the more when you start shooting mascots of him in Professor Genkis and... Well... The Deckers kick you in the crotch over it as well, I'll put it that way. It's like Wash getting it in Serenity. Sudden, unexpected, and very, very harsh. |

Johnny Gat is essentially "NPC Protagonist #2" in two games. As tough as your character, as deadly, a one-man army. Take into consideration that he's beating up "Frenchie" with a SWITCHBLADE in his belly, then uses it to cut Boss and Shaundi free, and then kill the pilot with it. And holds off how many people while trying to fly the jet? (Enough to make him go, "Wow, that's a lot of guys!" when he's taken on half a city's police force on his own!).
It's the reason that the Boss is hitting everyone in the crotch. Johnny's death has been a blow to him/her, and it's like losing an arm. The one that usually holds the guns (s)he isn't using at the moment. EDIT: Also, it forces him to rely more on Pierce. And that's never a good thing. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nyahnyah.gif) |

So am I the only one that wondered why Shaundi went from hippie to scary? I mean I understand after the intro, but it seems somewhere we lost the girl whos into mission in SR2 was jumping a Bootlegger off a few ramps and smoking a lot of dope.
And no.... relying on Pierce is never a good thing. Just look at 'Three Way'. I did that mission a dozen times because he kept getting his ass blown up by tanks. Edit: And just because... my second play threw is a fat English bloke with a green Mohawk and purple suspenders. It never gets old. |

Well, she gave up the Hippie Lifestyle to have her own TV Show and a Jetset Lifestyle. Coke would be the likely thing to take.Also, she probably got tired of all the jokes about her lack of combat ability in SR2 and grew a pair (of steel ovaries) between games. In addition, survivor's guilt over Johnny. It does weird things to people. That said... Um, yeah... She's still the Gang Bicycle who is relying upon Ex after Ex, and... Well, play the game and find out. |

So, here I was, playing "http://deckers.die/" in Saints Row The Third, when, just in the middle of kicking Matt Miller's dumb limey ass, my computer decided to kick the fucking bucket for good.
FUCK YOU, MATT MILLER! (the one that isn't Positron, while we're at it) |

No, it's just that my PSU is a few watts short of what the video card demands. And it's old. Luckily I just puked out almost $100 on a new one.

I never expected it to do such a thing. I played up to this point without problems, thinking that the game wasn't as taxing as, let's say, Batman:AC, and suddenly, among all those blinkenlights, BOOM.

But the fact is I have a 500W PSU that was enough for GeForce 9800, but GTX560 requires at least 550W. Once some serious graphics processing starts, my computer is prone to sudden shutdowns. |

Just got the Genkibowl DLC...
There are now rumors that JOHNNY IS ALIVE! Or that his death is in doubt. Could that be due to his Zombie, or is something else going on??? |
