Saints Row 2 brings true freedom to open-world gaming. Players can play as who they want, how they want, and with whomever they want in this sequel to the much acclaimed and tremendously successful Saints Row.
Set years after the original, the player finds himself in a Stilwater both familiar and strange and challenged with bringing the Saints back as the rightful kings of Stilwater and bringing vengeance to those who wronged him.
Limitless Customization - Play as fully customizable characters that are male, female or something in between. Vehicles can be visually customized as well as performance tuned. Cribs and even gangs all have an amazing degree of detailed customization options.
Multiplayer - Co-op full story campaign has seamless integration (for example one player drives while the other shoots). Competitive MP pushes the boundaries of immersion in a living Stillwater environment fully populated with police, innocent bystanders and rival gangs.
Killer Combat and Awesome Vehicles - Planes, helicopters, motorcycles, boats and cars can be piloted and used as weapons. On the ground new combat options include melee, fine aim, and human shield.
Freedom to Explore - More missions, activities, diversions, races, weapons, vehicles, cribs, city districts, and interiors than ever before. Over 40 story missions with additional bonus missions take place in a transformed Stilwater that is over 50% larger than before.

Why buy on GOG.COM?
DRM FREE. No activation or online connection required to play.
i now have 3 copies of this game, 1 on ps3, 1 on steam, and finally one here. played the fuck out of it on ps3 and loved every second of it; witty, nonsensical, but still pretty gritty, its the best saints row game to date. a lot of fun buy it if you haven't already.
Many reviewers say that the GOG version of SR2 is much better than the Steam port, and others say it performs exactly the same. (The Steam version is quite bad, for those that didn't know) Unfortunately, I fall into the poor performance side of things with my experince of the game. Even after uncapping the framrate via NVidia and using The Gentlemen of The Row mod AND defragmenting my hard drive (as one other reviewer suggested), the game struggled to maintain 30 fps, frequently stuttering below it, rarely going above.
The gameplay itself is highly entertaining, as the game gives the player an open world, knowing the player wants to mess with everything. and then gives the player the tools required to REALLY mess stuff up. It also has unrivaled character and world customisation, if that is your sort of thing, which it is for me.
I wish I could recommend this game, but I don't think I can because of the performance problems and the lack of DLC support for the PC version (I think because Voiltion couldn't work with a port they did not create). However, since this is GOG , and their customer service is actually very good, unlike Valve's, you can get a refund fairly quickly, just like I did, if the game does not run well for you.
The PC port of Saints Row 2 either runs normal or too slow. There is definitely an optimization problem. I have both Steam and GOG versions, yet, these two acts same.
So, unfortunately i can't review the game except it's performance problems.
So first thing's first-I read a lot of people are having tons of trouble with the game. But for me, the game runs flawlessly on both of my computers. I haven't run into any issues with the game.
It's like Grand Theft Auto on Goofy Mode. The missions are varied and frankly, terrific. The activities needed to build 'respect' to play missions are fun enough to keep replayability alive for a long time.
In short, if you like GTA, you'll love Saints Row.
