Saints Row Reviews
theres so much to do and so much custimization. this game is really one of the best games ever. this and cod4 are my favorites.
The action is non-stop. The clues to what I need to know and do is accurate and timely. I wouldn't recommend this game to anyone. I am troubled by the content.
The more crime the main character engages in, the more he's rewarded. Right and wrong is treated as a flippant subject not worthy of consideration or thought.
Everything that should be considered wrong is rewarded. There is no right and wrong.
I like that. It's crime run amok.
It promotes by proxy, the wrong message.that crime is OK. I like the action in this game, but I'm troubled by the content.
I know where the game is going and how to get there. This isn't right.
This just proves that if your going to use the GTA-esque formula, do it right, and Saints Row DOES it right. Your perogative is simple: Take over the city. The gunplay is tight, and very easy to just pick up and play. Volition wasn't out to sabotage Rockstar or anyone else in this, and since this was long before GTA 4 could grace consoles, could you really blame them. Between missions, you will have to partake in Activites. The Graphics take on a very "Toon"-like feel. You are able to choose your nose, ears, eyes, brow, your muscle, hair style, hair Height, and even your skin complexion. Your rescued by Julias and Troy, 2 members of an 'up and coming' gang called the Third Street Saints (Hehe, Irony).
Now if you'll excuse me, I have an urge to return to playing. If you enjoy a good, un-adult rated action game, give this a look. I've never usually liked "Knock-offs" and trust me, Saints Row is NO Knock off. Every time you blow up a car, you can see the heat lines emerge from the rubble, and every object such as mufflers or bumpers, fly off in the distance. Drive bys, Turf Wars, and random street fights abrupt very often, and catoclysmic violence is as common as eating breakfast. The "Over-the top" style is entirely to fun. In one Activity you'll be randomly causing mayhem to anything you see, and in another, you will be commiting Insurance Fraud. No, I dont mean getting into a car, and continually crashing it to rack up some easy money.
This has you throwing YOURSELF in harm's way, which really makes you admire the ragdoll physics. Now, since everyone is bound to say something, I'll do a quick comparison to GTA:. Both take place in an open world environment. The sound design could have been a bit better, the radio inparticular. Apparently someone at Volition takes things a bit to literally. Volition clearly knew what they were doing during Development with this game.
The intro does a pretty nice job of setting the whole scenario up, and it isnt light on the action. There werent a whole lot of Liscensed artists, so your basically stuck listening to Average beats, but what the Radio lacks, the Voice overs and gunshots make up for it. This is when you'll be caught in the middle of a 3 way Turf War. The Explosions and fire, look absolutely marvelous. Each weapon sounds realistic, and the civilian voice's (While not Academy Award Winning dialogue) do a fairly decent job, with many different voice actors. Welcome to StilWater, a city infested with Gang-Bangers an corruption, like New York is infested with rats. Thats it.
Its very intuitive. This would have been an issue for me, if the Activites werent insanely fun. So, you start out with creating a character. Weapons even have muzzle flashes, that just add to the intensity.
The language is very, very bad in this game and not suggested for young kids. This is game is ok. The graphics are more animated (cartoon like) than computer generated like GTA. I have to play the game on mute cause of the youngsters in my household.
you can even pimp your car out. GET THIS GAME. this is a very fun game. get this game. there is a lot of cool clothes, houses, and cars. if you like to blow up, destroy stuff, or kill people.
