Saints Row 2 - Coming to a 360/PS3 near you 11/14/08

Is the follow up to the first Saints row for the 360 that came out in 2006. It offered a wide variety of customization, open world, multiplayer, and mayhem. Saints Row's story is about the player's envolvement in the gang 'The 3rd Street Saints' which included eliminating other gangs. It ended with the character being caught in a boat explosion ending up in a coma for 5 years to wake up and realize that the Saint's city of Stillwater has bin taken over by A Hatian gang, Biker Gang, Underground buisness of the Asian gang, And the corporation of Ultor. It is now a fight for control of the city as it seems all the gangs are against them.

Now that I summed it up, here are a few features:

• The best customization options for characters including all types of clothes (Ninja suits, hotdog suits, G clothers, Ect), gender, weight, 6 options of voices, ect.
• Customization of The gang, cars, mansions, perhaps weapons, ect.
• A great story including many missions for each gang
• 2 player online co-op
• TONS OF ACTIVITIES
• Improved online multiplayer
• Tons of weapons including AS14 (Automatic Shotgun!!!), Flamethrowers, Rocket Launchers, Minigun, Chainsaw, Katana, Ect
• Many vehicles like Tornado (Helicopter with Minigun + rockets), Bear (Armored van with a minigun), Jetski, ect

• Inhanced combat features like finishing moves and throwing people

Spoiler

My personal opinion on the game so far: It is the game that we all wanted GTA 4 to be, ALOT of fun and mayhem like the old ones but decided not to. SR2 will provide players tons of activities, missions, multiplayer and overall a very high replay value. Something GTA 4 lacked.

 

QFT

SR2 will concentrate on a thing we play games for called FUN and not something we want to avoid called REALISM (Spellcheck sais thats a word).

 

Anybody watch the vids I posted? All gang promotions. My favorite is the Ronin one they are cool and the brotherhood leader is a complete badass.

 

There is though, its going to be great. I am looking forward to many things in this game.

 

Didn't really get what you said - Not buying games because they are different?

And yeah the activity trailer is all about GTA4.

Ya TBH theres so many good games coming out every end of the year but I want SR2 so bad. I want that same enjoyment I got when i played GTA vice city and San Adreas. GTA 4 didn't cut it for me.
