Pour out some Saint's Row liquor for the homies

by Joystiq Staff { Aug 11th 2006 at 12:25PM }

As if the stereotypes within Saint's Row weren't bad enough, along comes this photo up on the developer's Flickr page of a Saint's Row-inspired 40 oz. We're not sure if this is part of some eventual promotional scheme or just an inter-office joke, but, there it is.

We guess if the game bombs, the guys can just pour out a little liquor for the fallen.

You lose all respect when you take a picture of a 40 next to a warhammer 40,000 collectible.

I have doubts about the game bombing. The demo was pretty much a next gen GTA that was a weeeeee bit more hardcore. People that buy into the endless GTA games are going to splooge all over this game. I bet we'll see a ton about it in the news, though. GTA has nothing on this when it comes to stereo types and over the top violence. You even do missions to become a pimp and gain hookers by beating up other pimps.

Sweet I made it up.

bv-

You know, I'm inclined to agree.

On the other hand, I am always shocked at the number of gangsta-ass hoodz I know in real life that are totally into Diablo 2 or whatever. Has anyone else noticed this gangsta-nerd phenominon outside of MTV's Cribs and PS2 with Madden in their sweet-ass whip?

stereotypes are bassed on facts

Look what this post did to the Google Ads!

Daily Mass, Patron Saint Medals, A Catholic Saints Site; a wonder if they are garnering more hits? ;)

This was given out at a recent multiplayer press event in San Francisco. Not an inter-office joke, just a bit of lame marketing.

It's Old English, by the way. :)

That is actually what the developers were allowed to use as toilet during the last stages of the game

They get their cinna-on at the Cinna-bon, yo.

#7, That's Olde English. This malt liquor is way too classy to be using American spelling.

It's sad, really really sad, that I didn't have to look at Sal's post to know that's an OE - I knew because I polished one off last night.

I prefer a Steel Reserve or Mickey's Ice and a game of edward forty hands.

This game will cause some controversy. I guarantee it. Anyone gone to liquor store yet in the demo? You can smoke a blunt, drink a 40, and the screen gets all blurry.

Tucker-

I'm in the same boat as you. I knew it was some OE as soon as I laid eyes on it.
