Saints Row 2: Collector's Edition

This short review reprecents the opinion of the writer and the writer alone;

This game is great, it has good humor, pop culture references, a good story and an endless array of hillarious death and destruction. I fully recomend this game to anyone who loves a good sandbox rough and tumble, this game is what San Andreas could have been, and GTA4 should have been.

The ability to modify yourself, your crew, your crib your car adds a superb sence of enjoyment to the game, and the vastly grown amount of activities and unlocks adds even more hours of fun to the game.

That said this game is flawed, I know 4 people including myself who own this game and we all experience periodic crashes. For myself the game is so flawed that there is one, possibly more, activities that I'm unable to initiate and thus I'm deprived from that aspect of the game.
Even though the game so far have been a great joy to play, the amount of small bugs, crashes and an error that deprives an entire aspect of the game from the gamer, is unacceptable and thus i cant give it the higher rating it would otherwise deserve.

Otherwise the game is playable and an must if you liked the first game, or violent, destructive and chaotic freeroaming sandbox games in general.

First of all for xbox owners this is a must buy. Do not compare it to gta4 though, its a totally different game which why it is much of the same as the first game, im glad they havent tried to change it too much, i mean the basics are there but all the stuff you really wanted in the first game is here and more. Its really fun, go buy it, rule stillwater, and make sure you put the stripper pole in your crib :d

This is the best game i have ever played even better than gta san andreas wich was a awsome game but saints row 2 owns any game rockstar have made!!!

This game is great, and has walked all over GTA once again. Nice collecters edition I must say, got some really nice things included in the collectors edition.

Customise till your blue in the face on this game. You can customise evverything, and it's really good fun. There's even different voices you can choose for your character. Really well thought out game.

The only thing that I hate about this game.. is the new online. It's complicated I find. I want to just be able to select one specific gametype, and get going. I was hoping to be able to play the original saints row game modes and things, but i'm struggling to find them. This is why I've only given it 4 stars.

Well worth buying though. Great game.

Fantastic game. Irons out all of the flaws which GTA IV fail against.
