Saints Row 2 Review
Saints Row 2 ReviewSeveral of these side-missions kept me amused for hours. For example, the Insurance Fraud mini-game had me flinging my body at cars and the public in a bid to raise as much cash as possible- accompanied by a lovely squelching noise as your limp body is flung into the air. Another stand out mode was 'Fuzz' which had you dressing up as a cop and driving round the city, putting down criminals with excessive force while a camera man looked on- hilarious.

It's nice to hear that it's not just a "GTA4 Lite" and can offer things that GTA4 can't. I enjoyed GTA4 but I never found myself finishing it as it became boring pretty fast for me as the others did. Just not my bag I guess...

I'll be giving this a miss as I did with the first. In my eyes it's still just a GTA clone and I just can't shake it.

I might well pick this up when I see it for £20 online.

How big a game is it, and do you still have to do mini games before you get access to each mission ?

It's fairly big, should keep you going for a fair amount of time, depending on how much stuff you want to invest your $$$ in and how much of the city you want to take over. The amount of stuff you can do is staggering. I discovered a 'Ho-ing' minigame last night for example (slightly distrubing)

To be able to play missions you do still need to build up 'respect' but it's easier than in the last one and doing anything earns you a fair chunk.

I'm still discovering things in this game. Only last night I unlocked the option to make my gang dress as a load of Katana-armed ninja- which clashes nicely with the modded sports cars i have them drive around in (featuring nitro and a massive spoiler.)

Of course, it's even funnier that they all do a little jig when they kill someone...

This game provides some of the most fun I have ever had in a computer game, it has TRUE coop to the extent it even changes some missions to make them more fun in coop.

I have been playing this game a lot and I am still constantly finding stuff I didn't know about, my current quest is to get the pimp cane !
