Wow, that feature list...

Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty

* Saints Row 3 starts with a bungled heist that sees the majority of the gang jailed. This raises the ire of a new gang, the Syndicate, which holds you and your closest allies prisoner on a jet. The gang wants to squeeze a percentage of the Saints' monthly profits, which of course leads to a fight and causes your character to jump out of the jet. That's how the Saints roll.
* Johnny Gat and Shaundi, two of your major allies from Saints Row 2, will be returning as accomplices.
* Weapons can now be upgraded. For example, you can fit sniper scopes and under-barrel grenade launchers to the assault rifle.
* Another character is Oleg, an eight-foot-tall monster of a man that can toss cars around. The Syndicate attempts to clone him, but science goes wrong and creates a bunch of dumb copies. These will show up as new enemy types in the game.
* A new RC gun lets you shoot an electronic bug that can control vehicles remotely. You will be able to upgrade it to control tanks and air transport.
* Three new gangs: Morning Star, which model themselves after masked wrestlers. The Deckers, computer nerds into money laundering and security. STAG, a government-sanctioned group designed to destroy other gangs.
* Missions can be completed in multiple ways. For instance, you could blow up an important skyscraper, or take the building over. Another example if stealing a Morning Star boat full of prostitutes -- you can sell the boat back to the gang, or keep it and pimp the girls yourself for profit.
* A traditional leveling system has been included this time. Your Respect gauge now works like experience points. You'll rank up with increased respect, and kit out your character with new perks and weapons. Player choice will be paramount. You'll also earn points to make yourself skinnier or fatter, similar to GTA: San Andreas.
* Cars can be upgraded with more features this time. Various aesthetic and performance tweaks will be offered, such as durable bumpers, extra speed, oversized spoilers and colored underglows. More costume options for the player character are, of course, available. Confirmed costumes include space suits, cowboys/cowgirls, cheerleaders, mexican wrestlers, superheroes, pirates, ninjas, and furries.
* New weapons include a giant dildo and tactical airstrikes. That is the most extreme spectrum I've seen.
* Every single weapon has included a specific animation for nut shots. With a pistol, you'll drop to a knee and whip the gun into the fruits. With a bazooka, you'll take a full golf swing at the tender portions.
* The button for sprinting has been dubbed the AWESOME button because, in contextual situations, it will make your character do cool things. For example, if you sprint to a car, you'll do a missile dropkick through the window to hijack cars more efficiently.
* Confirmed Activity side-missions include: Professor Genki's Super Ethical Reality Climax, a Japanese game show full of dangerous stunts and, I'm sure, plenty of charming racism. Tank Mayhem, in which you use a tank to destroy specific high value targets. Guardian Angel, where you must drive carefully around town with a tiger in the back of your car.
* As earlier stated, online multiplayer has been killed off, but the co-op remains intact.

This is cool finally some one posted about this game but i plan on getting this but the online multi-player it was boring in my opinion because it was not like GTA where you had free roam and to me thats what made saints row multi-player a fail it was boring and you could not drive around the city but just being in a gang and the way you can customize you car was cool in the game but awesome cant wait until it is released oh im also looking forward to the new true crime game im surprised that no one has not posted anything up about that game.

"Draw Pilgrim" or something.

It appears that on the website you gave us the link to, they crossed out the part about getting skinnier and fatter like GTA:SA, which is good for me, I didn't really like that system.

As a proud day 1 buyer of both previous games I will be buying this one too. Hopefully I can pick up the CE for it this time around and now I guess I'll do the DLC for 2 as well I've been putting off.

Street fighting is all about analysis, prediction, and reaction. That's it.

I wouldn't consider that a infinite since you have to make your opponent bounce of the wall and if you do it on the wrong side of the stage the stage interaction would activate.

Well, there's a new gang made up entirely of luchadores, so I'm going to go with "yes".

EDIT: And apparently it's all available from the get-go.

You want crazed murder and hilarious mayhem in your Saints Row? Developer Volition is going to give it to you, right out of the box, in Saints Row: The Third.

That means beatdowns with giant purple dildos and comically large fists that cause pedestrians to explode on contact will be at your disposal. That means hopping into a VTOL jet and bombing tanks won't require unlocking the ability to do so. That means the hyperviolent sandbox carnival of destruction that you want from your Saints Row games is ready, waiting and willing.

After all, the Saints are running things in this game. They're celebrities, lending their likenesses to energy drinks, sneakers, even vehicles. They do whatever they want.

Awesome.
