Pleasure is pain with Saints Row's favourite weapon of crass destruction

2 million people have been bludgeoned to death by Volition's deadly IED (Inspirational Erotic Device), the purple Penetrator that has come to symbolize the strap-it-on attitude of Saints Row: The Third.

In total, 5.8 billion citizens of Steelport have met their demise at the hands of gamers around the globe while playing Saints Row: The Third. That's 19 times the population of the United States, roughly 85 percent of the population of the world, and it's just the beginning.

Amidst the mayhem, players have spent a cumulative two years in their birthday suits streaking the streets of Steelport, while in Whored Mode, 44 million pimps, gimps and prostitutes have been dispatched, roughly twice the population of Texas. Finally, 650 hot dog mascots have been overcooked to death by players using a flamethrower. Delicious.
