GTArcade

While the game shares some similarities to the GTA series, it takes the gameplay to an arcade style. I have yet to play SR1 or SR3, so I have limited knowledge of the story of the series - which didn't make me enjoy SR2 less. What's it about? Rise the 3rd Street Saints (again) and become the most powerful gang in Stilwater. You do this by completing missions against the other gangs and you gain benefits e. g. faster health regeneration for completing activities/minigames. It's possible to jack cars, air vehicles and water vehicles, also you can buy shares in different stores or your own hideouts. Cons: - The port lacks some optimisation for PC, resulting in framerate issues and sometimes odd controls - Arcade car controls that you'll need to get used to Pros: - Sandbox/Open World - Incredible fun and arcady game. The activities are a lot of fun to play. Getting 100% doesn't seem tedious - Bonuses are useful (unlimited ammo for certain weapons etc.) and worth getting - A lot of different weapons/cars - Different possibilities of character/car/hideout customisation - Funny side characters - Death results only in money loss (tiny bit) which encourages to perform more risky/crazy/funny stuff - As a big fan of Red Faction I love the Ultor references All in all a good game that takes the GTA approach and converts it into a fun arcade experience, that doesn't take itself too serious. 3/5.

Great game, but still better on consoles

I think Saints Row 2 is just barely better than Saints Row: The Third, making it the best in its series. Compared to other open-world crime shooters (GTA, Mafia, Sleeping Dogs, etc.) it's extremely silly. However, compared to future Saints Row games, SR2 is fairly serious and grounded. The core experience of the first three games is really entertaining: wresting control of the city from three different gangs, each with a distinct personality, and doing wacky activities and just messing around in the city whenever you feel like it. It was designed 2007-2008 for the XBox 360. It has some flaws. Most can be fixed with mods. The real problem is the crashing. Sometimes I'll play for all of 5 minutes and CTD (without warning), sometimes for 3 hours with none. I don't know of any mods which can fix this. If you own an XBox 360 (or newer thanks to backwards compatibility), I believe that's a better platform to play this game for the sake of stability.

GOG Version better than PS3 but not 360

GOG Version is better than Steam and PS3 but not the 360. First I own the PS3 and 360 Versions and although PS3 is "playable" it runs really poorly with most of the time the frame rate being sub 20 fps. The GOG Version is better but still doesnt run great. The game is capped at 60 to keep it as stable as possible but frame rate dips are very common and you can expect an average of ~40 fps tho the cutscenes are mostly broken with models looking weird or doing weird stuff. You will still be able to hear the story and for the most part see whats going on but some cutscenes the models will warp off screen (espicially when they are on a vehicle in the cut scene). The 360 is probably the best version to play to date with an overall better experience than GOG and PS3 since it has better performance than PS3 and the cutscenes all work. So to sum up, all versions are "playable" tho PS3 is the worst, GOG Version is second and Xbox 360 being the overall best. But theres no bad way to play Saints Row 2 and when on sale ($2.49) its the most affordable and accessible way to play. Good work by GOG to keep these classics alive from a better age of gaming.

Great game. Bad port.

Saints Row 2 is the only game in existence where you can get both high and drunk, dress up in a hot dog suit, and then go four-wheeling in a mall, all at the same time, for absolutely no reason. 10/10. But the PC port is...well it's bad. It likes to crash, there's a weird bug where sometimes it will run WAY faster than it should, models and textures are bugged...it's bad. Also I don't care for the art direction in this one and much prefer 1's art direction.
