Penthouse Pack - Available Now!

 

Introducing the Saints Row: The Third Penthouse Pack, featuring Penthouse Pets Nikki Benz, Justine Joli, Ryan Keely, and Heather Vandeven. Add these well-dressed Pets to your gang and call them into combat anytime to do battle against the Syndicate. For the first time in your life, when you call Penthouse Pets, they’ll actually answer.

Introducing Heyday Decker Sneakers!

We're proud to announce today the second partnership with Heyday Footwear, bringing our community members the first chance opportunity to pre-order the next pair of Super Shifts, this time based on another gang outside of the Third Street Saints, the Deckers.

We've decided to hit the virtual world, and chose The Deckers as they bring their bleeding edge style to the\nworld of cyber crime and illicit thrills. Heyday Footwear brings them out of the game and on to your feet with the latest version of our limited edition, officially licensed Saints Row: The Third Super Shift sneaker. 

The upper features insane blue python embossed leather which has multiple shades of blue and metallic flecks and snake scale details much like an actual python. Each pair is\nunique and may look slightly different than the photos shown here but every pair is AMAZING. Black patent leather is found on the eye stay, heel, and mid-foot velcro strap. The black patent leather tongue has 2 large Deckers star logo embossed and printed in blue and pink. The removable and reversible Super Strap features a 2 color, embossed Saints Row: The Third logo on black patent leather and the Deckers skull logo printed in black on the white patent leather reverse side. Here's a video with Darin Hager, CEO of Heyday, explaining the background design that went into this new\ndesign.

These shoes also come with both pink and black laces, so you can choose which accent color you want. I have my own pair of the Purple Super Shifts, and they are ridiculously comfortable. They helped me get through 8 hour plus days worth of standing at various events, and I still wear them around town, showing my third street\npride.

Full details on pre-order can be found RIGHT HERE, over on the Heyday Footwear website.

1. Upload your image to our Facebook wall.
2. Add the image as a comment to this post.
3. Provide a link to your image in\nquestion.

H.A.W.P. - SR:TT

I don't know about all of you, but I'm pretty addicted to the "Hey Ash, Whatcha Playin'?" (HAWP) series over on GameTrailers. If you've never seen it, and like video game-based humor, I recommend you watch a few episodes. At Volition, we've been lucky enough to be featured before with Red Faction: Guerrilla a few years back, but today, it's time for Saints Row: The Third to hit the spotlight.

In this\nepisode, Anthony attempts to compete with an unexpected amount of flawless logic from Ash as the duo nominate the best games of 2011! Watch below or click here if it doesn't load.

Saints Row: The Third Ringtone!

Thanks to the fine folks over at Ill Wireless, we're proud to provide everyone in the Saints Row Community with a special gift, your very own Saints Row: The Third ringtone! This is the same ringtone used in-game when a fellow Saint or citizen of Steelport in need attempts to call you, so you're one step closer to being a part of the Third Street Saints.

Right click on the links below >> "Save as..."
- Download .mp3
- Download .m4r (for iPhones)

If you're an Android or Windows Phone user, download the .mp3, add it to your phone's music library, and in the phone options for ringtone settings, you should be able to select the .mp3 and set it as your ringtone.

If you're an iPhone user, there's a few more steps. First, download the .m4r file above. Next, double click on the file to execute it. Now, oclick on your iPhone in iTunes and go to the Ringtone section, as the file should be added. Last step is to sync your phone, and the ringtone will now be selectable within your Ringtone Options menu.

Explosive Combat DLC Pack

In addition to that, we know that there are also some citizens of Steelport that want a little more brute-force firepower when attempting to take down enemy gangs, or even STAG. Luckily, the Saints R&D department have come up with the brand new "Explosive Combat DLC Pack", where not only will you get the brand new Future Soldier Outfit, with included mask and backpack, but you'll be outfitted with the M2 Grenade Launcher, allowing you to clear out some difficult situations quickly and effectively.

Special Operations DLC Pack

The Third Street Saints aren't content to own every day vehicles owned by the citizens of Steelport. When they want a vehicle, they want the best around, and nothing gets better than military-grade equipment, especially when covered in purple.

With the new Special Operations DLC Pack for Saints Row: The Third, you'll gain a collection of fully equipped military vehicles for your garage, in special Saints attire. The Saints VTOL features jet and hover modes making airborne attacks easy and stylish. The Saints Tank and the Saints N-Forcer are the ultimate in armored warfare, showing your opponents the Saints aren't to be messed with. 

The Special Operations Pack will be available on XBL, PSN, Steam, and OnLive beginning April 10th (or the 11th for certain platforms/regions), at a price of $2.99 or 240 MS Points.

Also, big thanks to community member Rokkotu (PC) for uploading the character to the gallery which we used in this video!

One of our Senior Artists, Jon Meilike, had a little bit of free time one night, and put together the image you see below. Many of you have probably seen the original and other variants of this style, but we felt we needed one of our own for Saints Row: The Third, and Jon created the following.

I've also gone through and made multiple resolutions if you want it for your desktop, mobile device, or anything else. Just pick your resolution below, and if there's\none I didn't put below, jcomment and I can probably add that as well.

The Dominatrix has You

The real world may be a lie… but this announcement isn’t. THQ Inc. (NASDAQ: THQI - News) and Volition, Inc.^® are proud to announce the development of Saints Row^®: The Third^TM – Enter The Dominatrix™, the groundbreaking standalone expansion to Saints Row: The Third. No longer an April Fool’s dream, the outrageous game concept will be reality this fall. It’s really happening.

Slated for release on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC, for a suggested retail price of $29.99, Saints Row: The Third – Enter The Dominatrix takes the award-winning, over-the-top action of Saints Row: The Third and adds the most requested gameplay features from the Saints Row community: freaking super powers.

“Faster than a speeding cyber jetbike, more powerful than a roided-out Luchadore, able to leap flying aircraft carriers in a single bound… That’s the power you’ll find inside the Dominatrix. Use it for good. Use it for evil. Use it for whatever you want. As always in Saints Row, it’s up to you,” said Danny Bilson, Executive Vice President, Core Game Production, THQ Inc. “With a franchise with more than 11 million units shipped globally, it’s incredibly gratifying to have the flexibility to give Saints Row fans the features they want most.”

  

He later added, “Freaking super powers.”

About Saints Row: The Third – Enter the Dominatrix

Saints Row: The Third - Enter the Dominatrix picks up immediately following the events of Saints Row: The Third. For centuries, alien warlord Zinyak has eyed Earth and its precious natural resources and females with a watchful eye.  As he prepares an armada for invasion, he has only one worry: the Third Street Saints.

Once a simple street gang from Stilwater, the Saints have evolved into a global empire, replete with bombastic TV advertising and tasteful consumer products, the kind of TV advertising and consumer products that would give any alien warlord pause. Clearly, the Saints are the biggest badasses on Earth.

Now, in order to prepare his forces for domination, Zinyak captures the leader of the Saints and imprisons him in an elaborate virtual reality simulation. This simulation program looks and feels like Steelport, but it is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth. Here, you are a slave. Welcome… to the Dominatrix.

More details and a first look at Saints Row: The Third – Enter the Dominatrix will be available this summer.
