All Saints Row games had the gangs come in groups of 3. That remains true in the third installment. First we met the Morning Star, Phillipe Lorens personal gang and head of the Syndicate. Then the Luchadores, a group of heavy hitting bangers dressed as masked wrestlers Led by the Large and in charge Killbane. Now we meet the Deckers, a gang of hackers, computer nerds and techno-samurais, led by cyber-sensation Matt Miller.
Like any internet troll, Miller is obnoxious, loud and feels powerful behind the keyboard. But put him in the real world, he's socially awkward and a coward, so he sends his gang to do the fighting for him.
With the Morning Star leading and the Luchadores being the muscle, the Deckers are the brains behind the Syndicate. Using their hacking skills they were able to access the Saint's banking accounts and totally deplete their funds.
The new gangs of Steelport are certainly more colorful than in previous gangs. These guys sports leather jackets with glowing outlines al a Tron, and will feature a mission that you wouldn't have expected. Your character's subconscious is electronically teleported to the Deckers main frame where he takes out bad guys looking like an 80's style video game and having to fight a Final Fantasy-like boss at the end.
The trailer also reveals that the game will be rated M (big surprise) for:
-Blood and Gore
-Drug reference
-Intense Violence
-Partial Nudity
-Sexual Content
-Strong Language
I'm pretty sure if one more thing was added to that list it would be rated AO (Adults Only)
