The fabled “cockney voice” of Saints Row 2 became a bit of a cult hit among fans of the series, and it’s hardly surprising — seeing a gruff Londoner act like an American gangsta is pretty hilarious, and he had all of the best taunts.
Volition told me at E3 that they weren’t sure they’d be having the voice back and they didn’t sound hopeful. Imagine my surprise when I check out the Saints Row: The Third Initiation Station and find him in the voice options! With a set of all-new lines, the “cockney” is back!
This is fantastic news. Whenever I’ve played Saints Row 2, I’ve exclusively used the cockney voice and I was bummed at the idea of it not coming back. My anticipation for this game just reached danger levels!
