    No, just no more terrible open-world games

    Saints Row 2 is much like Saints Row 1 in the way that its not that good. Its an ugly, bland experience that tries to blend Grand Theft Auto with god knows what. I was a fan of GTA3 and dont think I hate it because its open world, it just does openworld bad. Yes, it has nice colors, yes you can run around ramming cars into shit all day, but the actual missions are terrible and broken and the combat is borderline unplayable. The driving feels like you have half a dozen sandbags in your trunk and the physics are rediculous. While the gameplay is wacky and can almost seem fun at times, its just such an immature game that it makes you feel like your playing something that should have been rated teen if your character wasnt calling someone a cunt every five seconds. The good: crazy wacky shit to do, tons and tons of variety... The Bad: and thats about it. Terrible graphics (the ps2 has seen better days GTA3 looked better), clunky controls that make you want to jam the fucking controler up someone's ass, over the top (Which wouldnt normally be a bad thing, its nice for a bit of insanity now and then, but this is just retarded). And did I mention the FUCKING HORRIBLE CONTROLS (like trying to play your guitar with your cock and not cutting it on the strings in the process- its not fun). So saints Row 2: Dont waste your fucking money on this shit unless your a rich 13yr old who thinks Call of Duty is based on real events. OH OH OH AND THE GUNS SOUND TERRIBLE :(

        The first game in the recently announced trilogy of Saints Row proved itself as an over-the-top arcade-like alternative to Grand Theft Auto.   The sequel does not disappoint, as almost all aspects have been improved including the graphics, gameplay, activities and fun factor. The sheer number of things to do, combined with the competitive and co-operative multiplayer modes will make this game last a very long time for most ardent gamers. You play as anyone; almost any face could be made with ...

      This might not be GTA IV, but man, it's still very good 0

      Saints Row 1 really took the gaming world by storm, with it's great open-world gameplay and good story. Saints Row 2 is here and takes place about 4 years after the first Saints. Your in a coma after having the shit blown out of you and you have to fight through loads of dolphins in your coma -- alright I'm lying. You actually start off after you woke up from your "coma". This leads to one of the best features, although there is a lot of them, this is by far one of the most detailed feature.You ...
