Saints Row 2

Been playing this game all weekend and having lots of fun with it. Lets not start the whole GTA vs Saints Row thing. Who else has been all up in this?

I'll be picking it up this weekend. Been looking forward to it.

It's a fun game, even though you could call it a GTA clone (but what isn't these days).

The keyart for this game looks hilarious. It looks okay, definitely not a game I'd buy. Maybe a game I would borrow off a friend if I had nothing else to play just for the sake of blowing shit up. Better releases coming out soon than this though - DEAD SPACE.

I'll tell you on Monday as I'll be killing gang members this weekend thanks to my amazing girlfriend!

The first one was a blast. It's like an over the top GTA. Better combat system too.

Graphics are a step down from GTA. But the first one was a blast.

Think of it as a cartoonish over the top version of GTA. Not for everyone, but great times when you get into it.

man, the ww2 shit is so played out, it'll be cool to fight on the japanese side but ultimately they lost. it wouldve been cooler if they placed it in china with the imperial army fighting the chinese rebels, circa 1930's.

even from the start the war in the pacific was one sided, and i definitely do not want to see dudes kill themselves because they thought they dishonoured their country, it would be like watching letters from iwo jima for the eight time.

no disrespect to my taiwanese brothers.

I want someone to create a stand up comedy type game with one of the main characters phrentic.

and no matter what you did, everyone would just boo you off the stage.

Not a very long game that's for sure.

Been playing it quite a bit. It's a great game.

It's not a triple A game like COD 4 or GTA 4, but it's a great game to relax and have fun with. It doesn't take itself seriously.

And as far as GTA combat's system goes, I thought it was terrible. Was never a fan of it's auto aim, and I just like the feel of Saint's combat a lot more. Personal preference I guess.

Why don't you just change the controls in the menu then?

And isn't trigger shoot in pretty much every game?
