5.5 Million People Have Played Saint's Row: The Third

It doesn't necessarily correlate to copies sold or shipped, but THQ's president Jason Rubin tweeted that 5.5 million people have played Saint's Row: The Third.

Rubin calls the game, "the hit nobody realized was a hit!" And those numbers apparently represent Saint's Row's popularity before the recent Humble THQ Bundle sale that offered the game at a discounted price.

  • Most fun I had playing a video game in 2011. Fart in a Jar, need I say more?
  • One of the best games of 2011.
  • I am not one of those people. And by how fun that screen-shot looks, it's unfortunate I haven't picked it up yet.
  • Great game. Hoping for a 4th one sometime soon. Next gen would even be fine.
  • I want it to go to it's roots and become a cholo like game again
  • Eh, not really even up to play it.

  • I'm proud to be one of those 5.5 million! :D
  • Thats alot of people.

  • I got the Humble Bundle but haven't had a chance to check it out yet.

  • It was a good game, but once I got the platinum I really don't want ever play it again. Perfect example of a "flash in the pan."
  • I absolutely loved the game. I don't know why, but the DLC kinda took some of the experience away from the game, for me. And I hope that that "Dominatrix" DLC that they were making but decided to just put in Saints Row 4 has to do with the Deckers, because I loved them to death.
  • That reminds me. I need to buy the humble bundle so I can download the games when I get a better PC.
  • What can you say... Saints Row 3 is an incredibly fun game.

  • I played throught it and beat it with two characters and loved every minute of it.  One of the funniest games I ever played.  

  • the THQ bundle. ahh~ one of the best offers in gaming history.

  • woah. that's a lot of people

  • Ahhh SR3, good times. I remember when my man with a zombie voice and cheerleader shirt with no underwear went around and sat on people's faces. The horror they experienced! WA-HA-HA-HA!!!!!!

  • Loved that game

  • well, probably because of gamestop and bestbuy (used games) sold over and over, which is why companies want to go to digital distribution...
