Saints Row 3: The Third 'Initiation Station' lets you build-a-Itagaki
If you're eager to build-a-bro/babe/bear in advance of next month's Saints Row: The Third, well ... we hope you remembered to pre-order Volition's other 2011 title, Red Faction: Armageddon. If you did, you've probably been greeted with an email letting you know that It's Time to get to work on the Initiation Station.
What kind of work do we mean? How about creating a playable version of game designer Tomonobu Itagaki, shades and all? Too late, Volition already took care of that. But maybe you could work on a playable Ken Levine? No, seriously, can you do that for us?
If you didn't get an early access code, the public Initiation Station will be available on PSN, Xbox Live, and Steam next week, on November 1. If you want to get a better idea of just what's possible, check out the above, totally classy trailer, or the gallery below. If you'd rather get your hands on the thing, we'll be sharing some codes on Twitter and Facebook over the next day or so.
