Saints Row is a Wide-Open Sandbox game and the first entry in the Saints Row series. It was released in 2006 exclusively for the Xbox 360.The game follows "Playa", an antiheroic mime, who is walking the streets of the eponymous Saint's Row district, before being thrust into the middle of a three-way gang war by being in the wrong place at the wrong time. When the Third Street Saints rescue him, he joins their gang and has to help them reclaim first their neighborhood, then the city of Stilwater (based on Detroit and other Midwestern cities) from the other three gangs: Vice Kings (yellow), African-Americans bankrolled by a former gangster turned record company executive. They specialize in the vice entertainment of prostitution, pornography, and gambling and have the police on their payroll. Los Carnales (red), the obligatory Hispanic gang, backed up by the obligatory Colombians. They deal in drugs and small arms. Westside Rollerz (blue), Asians and Caucasian car enthusiasts from the suburbs doing illegal car sales and street racing.However, just as you think the game is over, a short new line of missions reveal themselves, leading to a turn of events that result in "Playa" being caught in a boat explosion — he survives, however, and the resolution is revealed in the second game.After over a decade without any sort of rerelease, port or remaster, Saints Row was finally made backwards compatible with the Xbox One system in mid-2018, much to the rejoicing of long time fans. | |

Heroic Mime | |
| Saints Row (Video Game) / int_143e6c8d | comment |
Playa is a Heroic Mime, only speaking a total of four times throughout the game, and can only be male. Starting in 2, The Boss is given the choice to be either male or female. Word of God states that if the player chooses female, then The Boss would have been female during the events of this game. | |

Unexpectedly Realistic Gameplay | |
| Saints Row (Video Game) / int_15264ac9 | comment |
You can take a taxi via Unexpectedly Realistic Gameplay - just look for another taxi somewhere on the streets, and call the phone number advertised on the taxi with your phone. Nothing tells you to do this, and some other phone numbers can be called for an effect of varying usefulness, like calling 911 to get an ambulance to come over which restores your health. Ironically, taking a taxi is highly unrealistic in its own way because it will always take absolutely no in-game time. | |

Tanya also wears a skimpy bra and miniskirt as her getup. Ironically, her backstory indicates she was once a Vice Kings prostitute herself that shot up the ranks by sleeping with all the right people. Her costume is significant in the sense that out of all characters associated with Vice Kings, she is the only one not wearing VK colors. | |

Visual Pun: When you resuscitate a recruited NPCs who's been knocked out, Playa pulls out a 40 and pours it out on their head — so he is literally "pouring one out for the (fallen) homies". | |

Stripperiffic: Beating one of the Escorts in this game unlocks a homie named Samantha. She works as an actual stripper and joins the player in battle while wearing nothing but a thong and pasties. Note that since she, by default, carries a rather powerful K6 Krukov, she's actually one of the more useful unique Homies around. Tanya also wears a skimpy bra and miniskirt as her getup. Ironically, her backstory indicates she was once a Vice Kings prostitute herself that shot up the ranks by sleeping with all the right people. Her costume is significant in the sense that out of all characters associated with Vice Kings, she is the only one not wearing VK colors. And of course, the only things the Playa has to wear are boxers and shoes. Otherwise you can dress him in as much or little as you want. | |

Check-Point Starvation | |
| Saints Row (Video Game) / int_2bfd6a1e | comment |
Checkpoint Starvation: Most missions are short and easy enough that this isn't much of a problem for most of the game, but the last couple of missions in each gangs arc will probably try the patience of at least a few players. There is also a series of a few fairly difficult missions after all the gangs are beaten were checkpoints would have been nice. Thankfully, all later games in the series include checkpoints. | |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: Tanya Didn't Think This Through when the Playa, Johnny Gat and Benjamin King all walk into her penthouse at the end of the final Vice Kings mission. She thinks she can threaten them with an assault rifle when all three are already aiming with her dead to rights. No Final Boss ensues, nor any sort of dramatic standoff — they immediately open fire and send her hanging from the shattered window before she can even get a shot off. | |

Deus ex Machina | |
| Saints Row (Video Game) / int_3fca462c | comment |
Deus ex Machina: Of a sort. At the very end of the game, it looks like Hughes is going to succeed in his plan to destroy the Row after killing the Playa... when a bomb suddenly goes off with no more warning than two beeps, destroying the boat and killing Hughes. It's not without its price, though — before the announcement of the sequel, it appeared the main character had also been killed rendering the whole game pointless. And even when the sequel revealed otherwise, that Playa actually survived and that it was Julius himself who set the bomb, it still established Playa being put in a coma for five years. | |

Paper-Thin Disguise: One Vice Kings mission has Playa and Johnny dress up as members of the gang to frame them for crimes they commit so that the police department will be forced to crack down on them. How do they go about doing this? By simply putting on yellow jackets, which is especially funny if the player is otherwise wearing purple clothes and has purple hair. Amazingly enough no one notices it's them and and the plan goes off without a hitch. | |

Downer Ending: The game ends with Playa being blown up on a yacht, spending five years in a coma, and undergoing major reconstructive surgery prior to the second game. On the plus side, this justifies any and all appearance changes between the two games... except for, perhaps, the possible different gender and/or ethnicity. But just pretend it was always like that. That's how Word of God put it, at least. | |

Early-Installment Weirdness | |
| Saints Row (Video Game) / int_4f4372e9 | comment |
Early-Installment Weirdness: Compare this to the silliness of later games and it's actually quite jarring to see how seriously this series started out. Playa is a Heroic Mime, only speaking a total of four times throughout the game, and can only be male. Starting in 2, The Boss is given the choice to be either male or female. Word of God states that if the player chooses female, then The Boss would have been female during the events of this game. This game was also exclusive to Xbox 360. PC and PS3 ports were planned, but Volition instead chose to focus on developing Saints Row 2, which went multiplatform. There’s a talk radio station that’s similar to that of GTA radio, especially with Lazlow. Future games did away with this and only had radio stations playing music. Stores close during the night time. They can be broken into to steal the safe, which can then be sold to a fence. This was done away with in later games, where stores are always open. Unlike later games, you are unable to unlock the main lieutenants as homies (not even Johnny Gat, who gets to be a unlockable homie in later games), as unlockable homies come from side activities, with the exception of the Wheel Woman after "Canonized". Though you can unlock Zombie Lin, it's still somewhat downplayed anyway as Troy, Johnny, Dex and Julius can't be unlocked. Besides Johnny Gat, who is present since the beginning, Pierce and Shaundi, mainstays and two of the most recognizable characters in the series cast, do not appear in this game. They make their debut in the sequel. If you want to change your hair style, Image as Designed isn't the place to go, as you instead have to go to hair salons. Every other game would have hair options added into Image as Designed locations, leaving hair salons obsolete and thus absent. Activities had a bit more detail to them, with full cutscenes and having three locations for each activity, being part of the enemy gang territories. Saints Row 2 would limit to activities to only two locations (therefore no longer applying to any enemy gang territory) and the cutscenes less detailed, and Saints Row: The Third did away with activity cutscenes entirely. The Insurance Fraud activity doesn't have a adrenaline meter, instead providing bonuses such as air time and being hit by civic vehicles (i.e. cop cars and ambulances). There are neither motorcycles nor useable aircraft present in this game, only being added in the second game and being present since. There is no true Playable Epilogue, as finishing "Saints and Martyrs" kicks the player back to the title screen after the credits, and reloading your save file still has the mission marker on the map as if nothing happened. Thankfully however, "Saints and Martyrs" is not required for 100% Completion, making the lack of an actual post game a non-issue. The Faction FM is closer to later games' 89.0 Gen X playlists than 89.0 Gen X itself. The Krunch 106.66 plays classic hard rock, as opposed to the more modern direction of SR2's Krunch and its replacement in The Third, The Blood 106.66. Kish is not the DJ of KRhyme. | |

Undercover Cop Reveal | |
| Saints Row (Video Game) / int_52ae74d | comment |
There's quite a few hints towards Troy being an undercover cop. The manual (seen here) is written from the point of view of an undercover officer, who includes a newspaper interview he conducted that he's afraid will blow his cover. He lights a cigarette several times during the interview. Troy's never seen without a cigarette within reach. Said article's title is "The Trojan Horse". No guesses as to what city Troy is named after. There's another dead giveaway in the gang description section of the manual. "The Los Carnales" is written, and "The" is scratched out. Troy always refers to the gang as "The Los Carnales" and is consistently corrected by Dex. In the Vice Kings' section, the undercover cop suggests that neither Chief Monroe or the undercover officer would want to go down on the gang. Troy expresses displeasure at being assigned to investigate the Vice Kings by Julius, and the Vice Kings are later discovered to be on Monroe's payroll. | |

Initiation Quest | |
| Saints Row (Video Game) / int_58b32881 | comment |
Initiation Quest: The very first mission of the game is a Gang Initiation Fight, where you have to brawl three waves of Third Street Saints in front of their hideout in order to prove your loyalty to the gang. Notably, you cannot fail this mission, since getting knocked out by your peers is just as good in the eyes of the gang leadership as you defeating them. You do get more rewards if you do, though, as well as a reverent comparison with the gang's top enforcer, Johnny Gat. | |

Disc-One Nuke | |
| Saints Row (Video Game) / int_5b81ca8d | comment |
It's absolutely worth it to be persistent (or use a guide) to unlock at least one of these weapons, simply because each of them easily qualifies as a Disc-One Nuke. They outperform every other weapon in their respective category with larger magazine sizes, larger overall ammo capaity, and - most importantly - sheer damage output. Best of all, however, is that ammo for all these weapons can be refilled for free at the Playa's cribs, meaning no more scavenging ammo from killed enemies, or wasting literally tens of thousands of hard-earned dollars at weapon shops. | |

Guide Dang It! | |
| Saints Row (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8 | comment |
Guide Dang It!: The Hitman missions can be a real chore to do. Most of the targets are actually random pedestrian variations, rather than unique characters, and as such can tend to spawn more in other areas than where the game lists them. note Most of the Airport targets, such as Gabriel, Bill and Thomas actually spawn around the Docks and Warehouses district. Some of the targets are also classed to only drive specific vehicles, or only spawn at certain times of the day.note The jogger and rollerskate targets, Juan and Tina, only spawn during the day, whereas the prostitute target, Theresa, spawns more commonly in the poorer districts at night. In addition, two of the suspects are only found by getting a high wanted level, although the game gives no hint of this other than stating that their location is "Unknown". You can take a taxi via Unexpectedly Realistic Gameplay - just look for another taxi somewhere on the streets, and call the phone number advertised on the taxi with your phone. Nothing tells you to do this, and some other phone numbers can be called for an effect of varying usefulness, like calling 911 to get an ambulance to come over which restores your health. Ironically, taking a taxi is highly unrealistic in its own way because it will always take absolutely no in-game time. | |

Vigilante Militia: A group of the eponymous district's denizens grows frustrated with their homes being used as a battleground by outside gangs and form a vigilante posse to clean up their 'hood, calling themselves "the Third Street Saints". The Player Character joins the Saints on the eve of their first major offensive.Unfortunately for everyone, once they get a taste for success, the Saints themselves become the biggest gang in the city. In the later installments, they abandon any pretence of vigilantism under the player character's leadership. | |

Bloodstained Glass Windows: The main HQ for the Saints is a run down church that enemy gang members and cops have no problem following Playa into if he decides to run inside during a fight. One late game Los Carnales mission also involves the gang attacking the church directly. While most of the firefighting during this mission takes place outside the combat begins when some Carnales open fire on the Saints from the inside of the church. | |

Foreshadowing | |
| Saints Row (Video Game) / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: There's quite a few hints towards Troy being an undercover cop. The manual (seen here) is written from the point of view of an undercover officer, who includes a newspaper interview he conducted that he's afraid will blow his cover. He lights a cigarette several times during the interview. Troy's never seen without a cigarette within reach. Said article's title is "The Trojan Horse". No guesses as to what city Troy is named after. There's another dead giveaway in the gang description section of the manual. "The Los Carnales" is written, and "The" is scratched out. Troy always refers to the gang as "The Los Carnales" and is consistently corrected by Dex. In the Vice Kings' section, the undercover cop suggests that neither Chief Monroe or the undercover officer would want to go down on the gang. Troy expresses displeasure at being assigned to investigate the Vice Kings by Julius, and the Vice Kings are later discovered to be on Monroe's payroll. | |

Later on, you're tasked with killing Winslow. | |

Bling-Bling-BANG! | |
| Saints Row (Video Game) / int_affa0e5d | comment |
Bling-Bling-BANG!: Beating all the hitman missions will reward the player with 4 special weapons. A golden handgun, platinum SMG, and platinum shotgun for each individual list. For finishing all 3 the player then unlocks a platinum RPG. Of course, since several of the hitman targets in this game easily fall under Guide Dang It! and Fake Difficulty most players are lucky just to get one bling weapon... It's absolutely worth it to be persistent (or use a guide) to unlock at least one of these weapons, simply because each of them easily qualifies as a Disc-One Nuke. They outperform every other weapon in their respective category with larger magazine sizes, larger overall ammo capaity, and - most importantly - sheer damage output. Best of all, however, is that ammo for all these weapons can be refilled for free at the Playa's cribs, meaning no more scavenging ammo from killed enemies, or wasting literally tens of thousands of hard-earned dollars at weapon shops. This game is also the first in the series to feature the mighty pimp cane shotgun. | |

There is no true Playable Epilogue, as finishing "Saints and Martyrs" kicks the player back to the title screen after the credits, and reloading your save file still has the mission marker on the map as if nothing happened. Thankfully however, "Saints and Martyrs" is not required for 100% Completion, making the lack of an actual post game a non-issue. | |

Mêlée à Trois: The game opens with a scuffle between the Vice Kings and the Rollerz, which soon turns into a three-way shootout when the Carnales show up, as well. The prologue mission sequence ends with a four-way shootout between VKs, Rollerz, Carnales, and the resurgent Third Street Saints for the last piece of contested turf in the Row. Because of the way the game is structured, all later missions involve taking on individual gangs one at a time, barring an occasional interference by the police. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Saints Row (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: The achievement for wiping out the Rollerz is Road Warrior. Ultor didn't make the jump from this to genuine Canon Welding until the next game. One of the achievements is called "Getting Up" and requires the player to find and spray every tag in the city. | |

SilentBob | |
| Saints Row (Video Game) / int_d1fd14db | comment |
Silent Bob: The main character is silent, save for a few grunts and groans of pain throughout the game, but when he does speak, and he does speak, he often says the funniest things in the game. The four lines he actually gets are spoilered below: Vice Kings: "Hope you don't mind hepatitis." Said in response to Gat saying he "was gonna skullfuck that bitch (Tanya)". Even Gat is stunned that he finally opened his mouth. Los Carnales: "Bullshit! That's last year's fall collection!" Said when calling out Luz on her comments that the shoes she brought with her to the airport were from the current season's spring collection. Westside Rollerz: "I just got run over by a motherfuckin' truck! How do you think I feel?" Said to Julius after he asks how the player is. Endgame: "Can we hurry this shit up? I wanna go to Freckle Bitch's!" Said to, of all people, Alderman Hughes, while the latter is detailing his evil plan to gentrify Saints Row and explaining that since the player can't be bullied or bribed, he's going to be killed right then and there. The main character being mute save for these four lines is occasionally lampshaded by other characters: This changes sharply in the sequel — the main character not only is an Anti-heroic Mime no longer, he's really mouthy. All the time. He was only quiet in the first one because he was being a good henchman. He got tired of it. It's even lampshaded all the way to Saints Row IV when you Revisit Stilwater in Ben King's simulation rescue. | |

Action Girl | |
| Saints Row (Video Game) / int_dae5c997 | comment |
Action Girl: Women appear among the ranks of the various gangs mooks and most gangs have important high ranking female members such as Luz, Tanya, and of course Lin. Though only Lin is much of an actual action girl. Tanya is willing to get her hands dirty and becomes the Vice Kings leader, but when confronted she folds like paper. Luz is basically just a gold digger who hooked up with a high profile member of Los Carnales. | |

Fake Difficulty | |
| Saints Row (Video Game) / int_e4e86215 | comment |
Fake Difficulty: The Player Character can't figure out how to stick his RPG launcher over a ledge when he's aiming downward, so you end up blowing yourself up. The frequency of missions where you're expected to drive competently at high speeds and do damage to an enemy car with a weapon instead of your car near the endgame goes way up. Strangely, this is helped in the sequel by two changes - cruise control and remapping of the driving controls (allowing you to steer/shoot with your left hand and accelerate/aim with your right hand, rather than having accelerate/aim/shoot all done with the right hand as in this game). | |

Brick Joke | |
| Saints Row (Video Game) / int_fe0330fb | comment |
Brick Joke: A few depending on what order the player fights the rival gangs in. For example, when the player is forced to drive around Tanya Winters she'll comment on Luz wearing outdated shoes. Then in the final Carnales mission Playa himself tells her pretty much the same thing. A little later Tanya will wonder aloud if Friendly Fire does giftwrapping when she stops there to buy a gun. Cue a Los Carnales mission where the shopkeeper at Friendly Fire asks the Saints if they want the McManus rifle they just bought to kill Hector giftwrapped. A particularly long Brick Joke is started when Gat has his knee shot by Anthony Green. In Saints Row IV, having Gat and Benjamin King together will prompt King to ask Gat about his leg. | |
