Saints Row 2 (PS3)

...:-O! Playing the first Saints Row is not necessary although I would recommend playing that also, you will be able to gather the gist of the game just by starting it up so no need to worry! I have completed this game twice once on normal difficulty and once on hardcore, so I feel I can give a pretty decent review of the game! I would recommend people who haven't played saints row before to start on the easiest option though to see how you go. This ...
...told otherwise by people but Saints Row 2 seems to be my current strength! Controls are super easy to get accustomed to, they are exactly the same as they are on the XBOX 360 version. Throughout the game you will have opportunitys to buy shops and housing, Shops will bring in a steady stream of money and housing is a way of increasing your rescpect meter AND of course another place to hide out! Once all missions have been completed you can find a ...

Review of Saints Row 2 (PS3)

...of a former 3rd Street Saints gangster who has just awoken from a coma. Your mission is to re-take the territory previously run, which is currently under control from three other gangs. The comparisons with GTA are obvious and if you just walked into a demonstration of the game you would think you were looking at the new GTA. It is mostly like San Andreas, where your main aim is to take over different hoods and defend them. A good point to the game ...
...your cribs, your cars or your gang. The graphics aren't nearly as good as GTA4, but aren't terrible either. The gameplay is basically the same, as is the layout of maps, menus, etc. One of the things I oike about the game is cars and boats have cruise control, so when you are playing missions invlolving chasing after and blowing up another vehicle it makes it less akward. Another small detail that I liked is that both different types of helicopters ...

Review of Saints Row 2 (PS3)

...I hadn't played the first Saints Row so had nothing to compare it to but was pleasantly surprised. There is a massive amount for players to get up to in their spare time from becoming a hitman, star of a "C.O.P.S" style tv show, joining fight club and so much more. There are almost limitless ways to get around the city from cars, bikes, helicopters, UFO's, planes, boats and anything else you can find. The amount of weapons available is something ...
...use anything or why not simply throw your enemies in front of a car or train? I will be honest here and say the driving wasn't as good as I'd hoped when I bought it and it seemed like a big drawback, however after playing it for a while I found it starts to become a bonus. The driving seems to help when you need to get from A to B quickly, it's not realistic and sometimes feels lifeless but when on a mission it comes in handy, and the cruise control ...

Review of Saints Row 2 (PS3)

Few games manage to live up to the hype we put on them, but this does. Im only about a fifth way through the game so i cant comment on longevity but after doing 8 missions i have 5 hours gameplay. The customization is unbelievable, you can do pretty much anything. Everything down to the last detail. I spent about 1 hour and 10 minutes creating my player at the beggining ( they get round it by saying that because you got so badly burnt at the end ...
...and so you can recustomize how you look). You can choose to be a boy or a girl in this one too. This game is what GTA IV should have been. Fun. Its funny, its entertaining, it will last you ages because the best thing about this gameplay is its so deep and exte4nsive that you wont get bored. Graphics are really good, not amazing, but graphics wasnt what they focused on this time, they went for gameplay. And they delivered. I will probably add more ...
