This here game, Saints Row Notorious Edition, it’s somethin’ else, I tell ya. Heard folks talkin’ ’bout it down at the general store, sayin’ it’s a real hoot. You get to run around in some big city, causin’ all sorts of trouble. Sounds like fun to me, ‘specially since I ain’t got much else to do these days ‘cept shoo flies off the porch.
They say this Notorious Edition, it’s got all the fancy stuff. Like one of them shiny metal book things, they call it a “steelbook”. And a poster, big as all get out! Could probably use it to patch up that hole in the roof, ha! And somethin’ called an “Expansion Pass”. Don’t rightly know what that is, but it sounds important. Maybe it’s like one of them coupons you get for the feed store. This is exclusive for GameStop. I don’t know what it is, but it sounds like very very big store.

Now, this game, it’s all ’bout bein’ a bad guy, or gal, I reckon. You make your own character. They say you can make ’em look however you want. Heard a fella say he made his character look like a giant purple chicken. Can you believe that? A purple chicken causin’ all that ruckus! Must be a sight to see, that’s for sure.
This city they got in the game, it’s called Santo Ileso. Sounds like a fancy name for a place full of trouble, if you ask me. They say it’s kinda like that Las Vegas place. Lots of lights and noise, I imagine. You and your gang, they call ’em the Saints, you go around causin’ all sorts of mayhem. Shoot, reminds me of that time ol’ Bessie the cow got loose and ran through Mildred’s prize-winnin’ flower bed. Chaos, I tell ya! Pure chaos!
- You get to drive cars, I reckon. Fast ones, probably.
- And shoot guns. Lots of ’em, I bet.
- And blow things up. ‘Cause why not, right?
This Saints Row, it’s one of them “open world” games. That means you can go anywhere and do anything. Just like back in the day when I was a young’un, roamin’ these hills, gettin’ into all sorts of mischief. ‘Cept in this game, you got guns and cars instead of sticks and rocks. And you can be a criminal. It sounds like a lot of fun.
They got all sorts of gangs in this game, I hear. Just like them Johnson boys down the road, always up to no good. ‘Cept these gangs in the game, they got cooler names. And probably better weapons than that rusty old shotgun Pa Johnson keeps on his porch. You gotta fight these gangs, I reckon. Take over their turf, whatever that means. Sounds like a lot of work, but I guess that’s what the young folks are into these days.
This whole Saints Row Notorious Edition thing, it sounds like a real big deal. It was released in North America first, then Australia, and finally Europe. This game is really popular I think. You can play it on PS4 and PS5. Those are some fancy contraptions. Back in my day, we had that Atari thing. That was fun, but this Saints Row thing, it’s a whole different ball game, as they say.
They got this thing called “customization” in the game. Means you can change how your character looks and what they wear. Back in my day, you wore what you had. Didn’t matter if it was patched up or faded. As long as it kept you warm, it was good enough. But I guess nowadays, folks like to look fancy, even when they’re blowin’ things up in a video game.
And they got this story, I hear. ‘Bout these four friends who start this gang. Just like them hooligans down at the creek, always causin’ trouble. ‘Cept these friends in the game, they probably got a better reason for bein’ bad. Maybe. Or maybe they’re just bored, like them young’uns nowadays, always glued to their phones and whatnot.
This Saints Row Notorious Edition is the best one. It’s for serious Saints Row fans. I don’t know what makes people serious fan, but I guess this game is a really good game.
This game is a third person action adventure. I don’t know what it means. But I guess you can see your character do many things, and you can have a lot of fun. Anyway, this whole thing sounds mighty interestin’. Maybe I’ll ask my grandson to show me how to play it sometime. He’s always playin’ on that PlayStation thingamajig. Might be fun to be a purple chicken for a change. Or maybe I’ll just stick to shooing flies. We’ll see, we’ll see.
