The lights are on
While the original Saints Row felt familiar to fans of the open-world crime genre, its sequel separated itself from the pack with almost cartoonish over-the-top action. Whether you were chainsawing elderly people in half or spraying a pool party down with a poop truck, the franchise was clearly heading in its own direction. Saints Row: The Third takes things a step forward as the most insane installment yet, and it's our April cover.
The cover above will be going out to our subscribers, while the cover below will be available on newsstands.
We'll have ten pages of information about Saints Row: The Third, including all the details on the new city and the shady Syndicate crime ring that controls it. This issue also includes a feature on Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning, the ambitious RPG developed by Big Huge Games and Curt Schilling's 38 Studios. Being our April issue, you can also look forward to our annual parody of the industry in Game Infarcer.
Check out page 2 for the official THQ press release regarding Saints Row: The Third, and keep an eye on our hub all month long for more coverage.

Very nice. I really like the second cover.
I forgot to renew my subscription but I'm going to do it right now.
Hell yeah!
Great. I will pick the store copy up. Can't wait to read the feature. I've still never played much of this series.
Will I guess with all the bad @ss cover's that GI has don as of late their allowed one cover that's not as good.. But watch it be one of the copies that I read over and over again for 2 week's straight...
OMG! Awesome!!!
The first cover looks like a Just Cause 2 rip off game. Not GI's best, this is probably the worst they have done since the redesign. Second one is pretty mediocre too.
O.o I'm honestly disappointed....I don't like Saints Row =( But I know this is definitely a treat for quite a few people.
